LEARNING CODES FROM OTHER REMOTES

Begin by positioning the HTRM 2 "nose-to-nose" with the source remote so
the two devices' infrared windows are about 2 inches apart.
Enter Learning Mode: On the HTRM 2, simultaneously press-and-hold
for 3 seconds both a Device Selector key and the [RES] key until the
Learn LED (located between HTRM 2's ON and OFF buttons) turns
steady green.
Press the HTRM 2's function key you wish to teach a command; the
Learn LED will turn amber.
Press-and-hold the function key on the source remote: The HTRM 2's
Learn LED will flicker amber for a second or two, then turn solid green.
The command is learned.
Press the HTRM 2's Device Selector key again to exit the learning mode.
If the Learn LED does not flicker amber you may need to vary the distance
between the remotes. If the Learn LED turns red rather than green, that
particular command of that source remote command could not be learned.
Example: Learning "BD Pause"
Position the HTRM 2 and your BD player's remote as described above.
On the HTRM 2, simultaneously press-and-hold [BD] and [RES]; the
Learn LED turns steady green.
Press the HTRM 2's Pause [ j ] key; the Learn LED turns amber.
Press-and-hold the corresponding Pause key of your BD player's remote
control; the HTRM 2's Learn LED flickers amber and then turns solid
green. The command is learned.
Press [BD] again to exit the learning mode.
NOTES
The DEVICE SELECTOR keys can themselves be configured to learn a
command.
Press and hold a configured DEVICE SELECTOR for at least 2 seconds to
execute a function assigned to the particular DEVICE SELECTOR key.
Short press of a configured DEVICE SELECTOR will just switch the active
device.
CANCEL OPERATION
You can cancel configuring a key, by pressing the active Device Selector
key before the learn process is complete; the Learn LED will turn red.

PUNCH THROUGH

The HTRM 2's "punch-through" function allows you to retain a function key
from one Device Select "page" to another, so that, for example, the AMP
[SURR MODE] function might still control the M17 when the BD Device
Selector page is active.
NOTE
The HTRM 2's [VOL R/T] keys are pre-programmed as "punched-
through" for all Device Selector pages: [VOL R/T] will operate the
M17's master-volume regardless of the currently selected device. The
[SURR] [CENT] and [SUB] Channel Volume controls similarly are pre-
programmed as punched-through.
To set a punch through, after entering the Learning Mode, and pressing the
desired key to be punched through, simply press the device key twice of
the device to punch through to. The status LED will turn green; press the
Device Selector key again to exit Learning Mode.
Example: Punch-through AMP [SURR MODE] key to the BD "page"
On the HTRM 2, simultaneously press-and-hold [BD] and [RES]; the
Learn LED turns steady green.
Press [SURR MODE]; the Learn LED turns amber.
Press [AMP] twice; the Learn LED turns green.
Press [BD] again to exit the learning mode.
USING THE HTRM 2 REMOTE CONTROL

COPY A COMMAND FROM ANOTHER KEY

You may copy a command from any HTRM 2 key to any other. To copy a
key function, after entering the Learning Mode, and pressing the desired
key to be copied to, simply press the device key from which you wish to
copy, having first pressed its Device Selector key if it resides on another
"page. " The status LED will turn green; press the Device Selector key again
to exit Learning Mode.
Example: Copy the Pause command from the CD page to the AMP [ j ]
button:
On the HTRM 2, simultaneously press-and-hold [AMP] and [RES]; the
Learn LED turns steady green.
Press Pause [ j ] ; the Learn LED turns amber.
Press [CD]; press Pause [ j ] ; the Learn LED turns green.
Press [AMP] again to exit the learning mode.
NOTE
The copy and punch-through functions are similar. However, if you
copy a command and then subsequently delete, or over-write the
original (source-key) command , the copied-to key's command remains
unchanged. If you punch-through to a command and then delete or
over-write the original key, the punched-through functions also change
accordingly.

MACRO COMMANDS

A "macro" command is a series of two or more remote codes issued
automatically from a single keypress. You might use a macro to automate a
simple command sequence, such as, "Turn on the BD player and then press
PLAY". Or you might compose an elaborate macro to power up an entire
system, select a source, choose a Listening Mode, and begin playback—
again, all from a single keypress. Each DEVICE SELECTOR and function keys
of the HTRM 2 can be stored one macro.
NOTE
Macros are independent of the currently selected device.
RECORDING MACROS
To record a macro, simultaneously press-and-hold for 3 seconds both the
[MACRO] key and the HTRM 2 function key to which you wish to assign the
macro, until the status LED turns green. The macro button will also light up.
Press the sequence of function keys to be recorded into the macro, being
sure to first press the requisite Device Selector key for each function (you
may switch devices while recording the macro as many times as necessary),
allowing you to create macro containing commands from more than one
Device Selector "page. "
When you have finished entering the desired command sequence, press
[MACRO] again to store the macro; the Learn LED and [MACRO] key
illumination will turn off.
NOTE
Each macro can store a maximum of 64 command steps. If you exceed
this number, the macro will be stored automatically after the 64th
command is added.
