AVR220
Remote Control Functions
IMPORTANT NOTE: The AVR 220's remote
may be programmed to control up to eight
devices, including the AVR 220. Before using the
remote, it is important to remember to press the
Input Selector Button that corresponds
to the unit you wish to operate. In addition, the
AVR 220's remote is shipped from the factory to
operate the AVR 220 and most Harman Kardon
CD or DVD players and cassette decks. The
remote is also capable of operating a wide vari-
ety of other products using the control codes
that are part of the remote. Before using the
remote with other products, follow the instruc-
tions on pages 33–36 to program the proper
codes for the products in your system.
It is also important to remember that many of
the buttons on the remote take on different
functions, depending on the product selected
using the Device Control Selectors. The descrip-
tions shown here primarily detail the functions
of the remote when it is used to operate the
AVR 220. (See page 34 for information about
alternate functions for the remote's buttons.)
Power Off Button: Pressing this button
turns off (places in the Standby mode) the device
that was last selected by pressing one of the
Input Selectors . To place the AVR 220 in
the Standby mode, first press the AVR Selector
Button and then press this button.
IR Transmitter Window: Point this win-
dow towards the AVR 220 when pressing buttons
on the remote to make certain that infrared com-
mands are properly received.
Program/SPL Indicator: This three-color
indicator is used to guide you through the
process of programming the remote and it is
also used as a level indicator when using the
remote's EzSet capabilities. (See page 21 for
more information on setting output levels, and
see page 33 for information on programming
the remote.)
Power On Button: Press this button
to turn on power to the device that was last
selected by pressing one of the Input Selectors
. To turn on the AVR 220, press the AVR
Selector Button .
Input Selectors: Pressing one of these
buttons will perform three actions at the same
time. First, if the AVR 220 is not turned on, this
will power up the unit. Next, it will select the
source shown on the button as the input to the
AVR 220. Finally, it will change the remote con-
trol so that it controls the device selected. After
pressing one of these buttons you must press

the AVR Selector Button again to oper-
ate the AVR 220's functions with the remote.
AVR Selector: Pressing this button will
switch the remote so that it will operate the
AVR 220's functions. If the AVR 220 is in the
Standby mode, it will also turn the AVR 220 on.
AM/FM Tuner Select: Press this button to
select the AVR 220's tuner as the listening
choice. Pressing this button when the tuner is
already in use will switch between the AM and
FM bands.
Test Button: Press this button to begin
the sequence used to calibrate the AVR 220's
output levels. (See page 21 for more information
on calibrating the AVR 220.)
Sleep Button: Press this button to place
the unit in the Sleep mode. After the time
shown in the display, the AVR 220 will auto-
matically go into the Standby mode. Each press
of the button changes the time until turn-off in
the following order:
90 80 70 60
min min min min
40 30 20 10

Note that this button is also used to change
channels on your TV when the TV is selected.
This button is also used to end the process of
creating a macro command. (See page 34 for
more information on creating macros.)
Surround Mode Selector: Press this
button to begin the process of changing
the surround mode. After the button has
been pressed, use the Buttons
/
to select the desired surround mode.
(See page 25 for more information.) Note that
this button is also used to tune channels when
the TV is selected using the device Input
Selector . This button is also used in part
of the process of erase stored macro com-
mands. (See page 34 for more information on
macros.)
NOTE: The Sleep Button and Surround
Mode Selector may also function as the
Channel + and – keys when the remote is pro-
grammed for use with TVs, cable boxes, VCRs,
satellite receivers or other video devices with
tuners. See page 35 for information on pro-
gramming the remote for Channel Control
Punch-Through capability so that you may
change channels on a separate device when
the remote is in AVR mode.
Night Mode: Press this button to activate
the Night mode. This mode is available in spe-
cially encoded digital sources, and it preserves
dialog (center channel) intelligibility at low
volume levels.
Channel Select Button: This button is
used to start the process of setting the AVR 220's
output levels to an external source. Once this but-
ton is pressed, use the
