INSTALLER
Programming Overview
Recommended Process
It will be much easier to program the SaphIR K2 if you follow the
steps in a particular order, especially if you're programming it
manually. Here's the order we recommend for initial setup:
1. Component Control – First learn how the amp/receiver
and source components work with their remote controls,
especially how source inputs are numbered on the amp/
receiver. This is important for configuring the inputs for
selection by the Source key. List the sources on the Source
Information Form (page 55).
2. IR Device Codes – Look up the amp/receiver's and source
components' device codes in the IR Device Codes list
(pages 57–61). Record component information and settings
on the Source Information Form (page 55).
3. Keypad ID (page 40) – If the system you're installing has
more than one SaphIR K2 keypad, assign a unique ID num-
ber to each keypad. This procedure is necessary before you
can copy the configuration from one keypad to the others.
This doesn't apply if you're installing only one SaphIR K2.
4. Amp/Receiver Basic Setup (page 23) – Set up the
amp/receiver first to lay the foundation for source setup.
The amp/receiver selects sources and controls functions
common to all sources, such as volume, tone, and surround
mode. Also, it's important to understand the order in which
the amp/receiver selects source inputs when you assign
source numbers to the sources.
5. Learn IR (page 25) – In most cases you will be able to
find an IR device code for the amp/receiver. If not, you can
use the Learn IR procedure to teach the keypad the com-
20
mands from the remote control. The commands are central-
ly stored in the keypad as a learned IR command type.
6. Number of Sources (page 27) – If the system has fewer
than eight sources, specify the total number of sources to
prevent unused source numbers from appearing in the key-
pad display. Don't forget to count the tuner in the receiver if
it will be used as a source.
7. Source Basic Setup (page 28) – Follow the Source Basic
Setup procedure for each source, including the receiver's
tuner if it is used, for the keypad to be able to control the
sources. As with the amp/receiver, you may need to use the
Learn IR procedure for some sources if their IR device
codes aren't in the built-in library.
8. Numeric IR (page 32) – The Numeric IR procedure lets
you program numeric functions so the user can pick station,
channel, or disk numbers from scroll lists on the keypad.
9. Power Management (page 35) – If you program the
power management feature, the keypad can issue discrete
commands and/or macros to control the power state of the
amp/receiver and source components. When you turn on
the keypad (or first keypad in a multiple-keypad system), the
components turn on; when you issue an All Off command,
they turn off.
10. Macro Editor (page 38) – The Macro Editor allows you to
build command sequences that run with a single key touch.
This is useful for issuing power commands to multiple com-
ponents for power management. It's also useful for control-
ling other devices like home theater screens and projectors
in conjunction with source equipment.
