Controlling Other Components; Entering Remote Control Codes - Onkyo TX-NR905 Instruction Manual

Controlling Other Components

You can control your other components, including those
made by other manufacturers, with the remote controller.
This section 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 129).
• Program the MACRO buttons to perform a sequence
of up to eight remote control actions (see page 130).

Entering Remote Control Codes

To control another component, you must first enter that
component's remote control code to a REMOTE MODE
button. You'll need to enter a code for each component
that you want to control.
