Reassigning the DVD•VCR Key to Control a VCR
The DVD•VCR key defaults to control a DVD player. If you want the DVD•VCR key to control
a VCR, you must reassign it.
1. Press and hold the DVD•VCR key. The POWER key illuminates. Keep holding down
DVD•VCR key.
2. While holding down the DVD•VCR key, press and release the number 2 key on the
keypad. The POWER key turns off.
3. Release the DVD•VCR key. The POWER key blinks four times and then turns off. The
DVD•VCR key is now set to control a VCR.
4. Follow the directions in the auto, brand, direct entry, or manual code search to program
the DVD•VCR key for your VCR.
Volume Punch-Through
Volume punch-through allows the VOL and MUTE keys, when pressed in SAT•CBL•DTC or
DVD•VCR modes, to "punch through" to TV. Volume punch-through occurs automatically
and allows you to control the volume without exiting the current mode.
Note: Volume punch-through does not occur in cases where the component code has its
own volume/mute controls, such as some satellite receivers.
Transport Key Punch-Through
Transport key punch-through allows the transport keys (REVERSE, PLAY, FORWARD,
RECORD, STOP, PAUSE, SKIP BACK, SLOW, and SKIP FWD), when pressed in TV or
SAT•CBL•DTC modes, to "punch through" to DVD•VCR mode. Transport key punch-
through occurs automatically and allows you to use the transport keys without exiting the
current mode. For example, if the transport keys were last used in DVD mode and accessed
again after pressing the TV key, they will punch through to the DVD.
Note: Transport key punch-through does not occur in cases where the device code has its
own transport key data, such as a satellite receiver with a built-in DVR.
Channel Lock
Channel lock automatically sends channel commands, like the CH, GO BACK, and 0–9
number keys, to your satellite receiver, cable box, or digital TV converter when you're in TV
mode.
This can save you keypresses if you use a device other than your TV to change channels.
