Basic Operation

REMOTE CONTROL OVERVIEW

The RV-8 remote control is designed to provide full operation of the
RV-8, performing commands such as menu navigation that are not
available from the front-panel. It is also designed to provide control
for the entire home theater system. This section provides a brief
overview of the remote control. For detailed operation/program-
ming instructions, and for manufacturing codes, refer to Appendix
C.
OPERATION CONSIDERATIONS
The items that begin below describe factors that can improve or
impede remote control operation. It is recommended that you
observe these items as well as the battery installation instructions
on page 1-6 before operating the remote control.
Please note the following before operating the RV-8 remote
control:
• The remote control must be in line-of-sight with the front-
panel IR receiver. Eliminate obstructions between the remote
control and the IR receiver. The remote control might become
unreliable if strong sunlight or fluorescent light is shining on
the IR receiver.
• For optimal performance, position the remote at a 30 degree
angle no more than 40 to 60 feet (12.2m to 18.3m) from the
RV-8. If the RV-8 is placed inside a glass cabinet, smoked glass
will reduce the remote control range.
• Remote controllers for different components can interfere with
one another. It is recommended that you avoid using remote
controls for different components at the same time.
• The remote control batteries should be replaced as needed.
