The cR90 universal remote
controller
This section refers only to the A38. Please note that the
P38 Power Amplifier can only be controlled indirectly
through a pre-amp.
The CR90 is a sophisticated 'universal' remote control
that can control up to eight devices. It's pre-programmed
for use with the A38 and many other Arcam products
(FM/DAB tuners, CD-players and DVD-players).
With its extensive built-in library of codes, it can also be
used with thousands of other audio-visual components
– TVs, satellite and set-top boxes, PVRs and third-party
CD players. See the final section of the CR90 Handbook
for a list of these.
The CR90 is a 'learning' remote, so you can teach it
almost any function from an old single-device remote.
You can also program the CR90 to issue a sequence of
commands ('macros') from a single button press – see
the CR90 Handbook for details.
As the CR90 is a system remote controller, some of
the keys are not used with the A38. For instance, the
and
keys can still be programmed to control
PVr
cd
products, so if you have a PVR connected directly to
your TV or SAT box, you can use the CR90 to control it
as part of your system.
Source keys
As the CR90 can control your A38 as well as a range of
other equipment, many of the buttons have more than
one function depending on the 'device mode' or 'page'
selected.
The device selection keys:
,
,
(TV),
dVd
sAt
AV
and
, both select the source and configure the CR90
AuX
to control the particular source.
In other words, the buttons are often 'context sensitive'
so you'll have to tell it what sort of device you wish
to control (press the
button for a video display, for
AV
example) before you can control it.
Select the source key first
Remember to select a source key before pressing
command buttons – commands vary depending on the
source selected!
