Remedy
• Learning has not succeeded. See "For accurate Learning"
(page 17) and try the Learning procedure again (page 14).
• There are no available buttons for "learning." Clear
infrequently used Learned functions (page 20), then carry out
learning operations.
• The component codes cannot be set. See the supplied
"Component code numbers" and try setting the component
codes again (page 8).
• A selected Component Select button or another button to be
set has any remote control signals programmed by Learning
function (page 14). Clear the "learned" signals (page 20) or
select another button which has no "learned" signals, and try
setting again.
• The Hold function is on. Unlock the Hold function (page 32).
• A Learning function has already been set on the Component
Select button. If a Learning function has been set (page 14),
you can programme the Power-On function on the
Component Select button (page 25) but the Power-On setting
will not work until you clear the "learned" function. Erase the
"learned" function after the setting the Power-On function.
This function is for the Sony components only.
• When you programme a System Control function or Control
Programme function, make sure to follow the correct steps
(pages 26, 29).
• Change the direction the Remote Commander is aimed. If the
problem persists, position the programmed components
closer together.
• If the remote control receivers of the components are too far
apart, or if something is blocking the signals between them,
some of the components may not operate in sequence even
after you press the programmed button. If some of the
components do not operate correctly because of the above or
any other reason, position the components back to the way
they were before you set the System Control function or
Control Programme function. Failure to do this can result in
incorrect operation when you use these functions again.
• Some components may not always be powered on by the
System Control function or Control Programme function.
This is because the power of the component turns on and off
alternately when receiving the power on/off signal. In this
case, check the operating component's power on/off state
before using the System Control function.
• If you change the AV brands' component code number (page
8) set on a Component Select button that has been
programmed for a series of commands by the Control
Programme function, the new signal will be transmitted
when you press the corresponding Component Select button.
• The intervals between steps may be too short. Depending on
the components, you may need to insert an interval between
consecutive controls. You can insert an interval by changing
the order of pressing the buttons. (You can insert an interval
between steps when programming the Component Select
button.)
• If a SYSTEM CONTROL button or a Component Select button
has already "learned" a remote control signal (page 14), you
can programme a System Control function (System Control
Macro) or a Control Programme function (Component
Macro), but the function will not work until you clear the
Learned Function. To clear the Learned function, see
"Changing or erasing the function of a "learned" button" on
page 20.
