Operating Other Manufacturers' Devices Using The Remote Controller; Learning A Pre-Programming Code - Onkyo TX-NR801 Instruction Manual

Operating Other Manufacturers' Devices Using
the Remote Controller
The remote controller has three learning functions. One
is entering the pre-programmed code for a remote con-
troller of another manufacturer. Another is the normal
learning function that enables the remote controller to
learn the codes directly from other remote controllers
(See page 86). And the last is a macro learning function
that enables you to program a series of operations into
the remote controller so that the operations can all be
performed at once by pressing one button (See page 88).

Learning a Pre-programming Code

By entering a pre-programming code, you can have the
RC-511M remote controller operate a component made
by another manufacturer. The buttons that are used for
operation are given on pages 84-85.

Caution
With some brand's components, some buttons may not
work correctly. In this case, program the command
directly from the other remote controller normally (See
page 86).

1 In the table on the next page find the 3-
digit number for the manufacturer of the
component that you want to operate.
2
Turn on the component that you want to
operate (i.e., DVD, satellite tuner, or televi-
sion).
3
While holding down the MODE button on
the RC-511M that you want to program,
press the DISPLAY button, and then
release both buttons.
The SEND/LEARN indicator lights when the
MODE button is pressed and turns off when the
DISPLAY button is pressed. When the indicator
turns off, release both buttons. The SEND/
LEARN indicator lights again.
4 Within 30 seconds, enter the 3-digit code.
The SEND/LEARN indicator slowly flashes
twice. If the SEND/LEARN indicator quickly
flashes three times, then either a mistaken 3-digit
code was entered or an incorrect operation was
performed. If this occurs, return to step 3.
5
Press the button that you programmed
and check if the system operates cor-
rectly.
• If the component does not operate properly,
return to step 3 and repeat the steps above.
• If it still does not operate properly, program the
command directly from the other remote con-
troller normally (See page 86).
When entering the code of Onkyo DVD players:
There are three SETTING numbers. Choose the SET-
TING number according to how you will be using the
DVD player.
