Controlling Other Components

You can use the AV receiver/AV amplifier's remote con-
troller (RC-717M) to control your other AV components,
including those made by other manufacturers. This sec-
tion explains how to:
• Enter the remote control code for a component that
you want to control: DVD, TV, VCR, etc.
• Learn commands directly from another component's
remote controller (see page 111).
• Program the MACRO buttons to perform a sequence
of up to eight remote control actions (see page 112).
Preprogrammed Remote Control
Codes
The following REMOTE MODE buttons are prepro-
grammed with remote control codes for controlling the
components listed. You do not need to enter a remote
control code to control these components.
For details on controlling these components, see the
pages indicated.

want to control.

Note:
The remote control codes provided are correct at the time
of printing, but are subject to change.
Look up the appropriate remote
control code in the separate
Remote Control Codes list.
The codes are organized by category
(e.g., DVD player, TV, etc.).
While holding down the REMOTE
MODE button to which you want
to enter a code, press and hold
down the [DISPLAY] button
(about 3 seconds).
The REMOTE MODE button lights up.
Notes:
• Remote control codes cannot be
entered for the [RECEIVER] and
[ZONE 2] buttons.
• Only TV remote control codes can be
entered for the [TV] button.
• Apart from the [RECEIVER], [TV],
and [ZONE 2] buttons, remote con-
trol codes from any category can be
entered for the REMOTE MODE
buttons. However, these buttons also
work as input selector buttons
(page 54), so choose a REMOTE
MODE button that corresponds with
the input to which you connect your
component. For example, if you con-
nect your CD player to the CD input,
choose the [CD] button when enter-
ing its remote control code.
Within 30 seconds, use the num-
ber buttons to enter the 5-digit
remote control code.
The REMOTE MODE button flashes
twice.
If the remote control code is not entered
successfully, the REMOTE MODE
button will flash once slowly.
