Tip: You can also use the CH+/– keys to scroll
forward or backward through the Setup
menus.
Note: The Code Search starts from the currently
stored code under that mode. For example, if the
component Code List contains 100 codes and the
currently stored code is 1050, the Code Search
starts from 1051 and continues to 1100 before
looping back to 1000 and fi nishing at 1050. This
speeds up the process of fi nding the correct code
for your component, since you may discover that
some codes can turn your component on and off
but are not able to control its other functions.

1000
