PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE

Programming the Remote

Note that the numbers used to describe the but-

ton functions at the left for the purposes of

describing how a button operates are a different

set of numbers than those used in the rest of this

manual to describe the button functions for the

AVR 510.

Notes on Using the AVR 510 Remote With

Other Devices.

•

Manufacturers may use different code sets for

the same product category. For that reason, it

is important that you check to see whether the

code set you have entered operates as many

controls as possible. If it appears that only a

few functions operate, check to see whether

another code set will work with more buttons.

•

When a button is pressed on the AVR 510

remote, the red light under the

Input

Selector

e

for the product being operated

should flash briefly. If the Device Control

Selector flashes for some but not all buttons

for a particular product, it does NOT indicate a

problem with the remote but rather that no

function is programmed for the button being

pushed.

Volume Punch-Through

The AVR 510

’

s remote may be programmed to

operate the

Volume Control

and

Mute

functions of either the TV or the AVR 510 in

conjunction with any of the devices controlled by

the remote. For example, since the AVR 510 will

likely be used as the sound system for TV view-

ing, you may wish to have the AVR 510

’

s volume

activated, although the remote is set to run the

TV. Either the AVR 510 or TV volume control may

be associated with any of the remote

’

s devices.

To program the remote for Volume Punch-

Through, follow these steps:

1. Press the

Input Selector

e

for the unit you

wish to have associated with the volume con-

trol and the

Mute

button

at the same

time until the red light appears under the

Input Selector

e

and note that the

Program/SPL Indicator

c

will flash amber.

2. Press the

Volume Up

button

and note

that the


c

will

stop flashing and stay amber.

3. Press either the

AVR Selector

f

or the

Input Selector

e

, depending on which

system

’

s volume control you wish to have

attached for the punch-through mode. The


c

will blink green

three times and then go out to confirm the

data entry.

Example:

To have the AVR 510

’

s volume

control activated even though the remote is

set to control the TV, first press the

Video/TV

Input Selector

e

and the

Mute

button

at the same time. Next, press the

Volume Up

button

, followed by the

AVR Selector

f

.

NOTE:

Should you wish to return the remote to

the original configuration after entering a Volume

Punch-Through, you will need to repeat the steps

shown above. However, press the same Input

Selector in Steps 1 and 3.

Channel Control Punch-Through

The AVR 510

’


operate so that the channel control function for

either the TV, cable or satellite receiver used in

your system may be used in conjunction with one

of the other devices controlled by the remote. For

example, while using and controlling the VCR, you

may wish to change channels on a cable box or

satellite receiver without having to change the

device selected by the AVR 510 or the remote. To

program the remote for Channel Control Punch-


1. Press the

Input Selector

button

e

for the

device you wish to have the channel control

associated with and the

Mute

button

at

the same time until the red light appears under

the

Input Selector

e

and the

Program/

SPL Indicator

c

flashes amber.

2. Press the

Volume Down

button

. The


c

will stop flash-

ing and stay amber.

3. Press and release the

Input Selector

button

e

for the device that will be used to change

the channels. The


c

will blink green three times and then go

out to confirm the data entry.

Example:

To control the channels using your

Cable Box or Satellite Receiver while the

remote is set to control the VCR, first press the

VID 1/VCR Input Selector

button

e

and

the

Mute

button

at the same time. Next,

release them and press the

Volume Down

button

, followed by the

VID 2/TV Input

Selector

button

e

.

NOTE:

To remove the Channel Control Punch-

Through and return the remote to its original con-

figuration, repeat the steps shown in the example

above. However, press the

VID 1/VCR Input

Selector

in Steps 1 and 3.

Transport Control Punch-Through

The AVR 510

’


operate so that the Transport Control Functions

x

(Play, Stop, Fast Forward, Rewind, Pause and

Record) for a VCR, DVD or CD will operate in con-

junction with one of the other devices controlled

by the remote. For example, while using and con-

trolling the TV, you may wish to start or stop your

VCR or DVD without having to change the device

selected by the AVR 510 or the remote. To pro-

gram the remote for Transport Control Punch-


1. Press the

Input Selector

e

for the device

you wish to have the channel control associ-

ated with and the

Mute

button

at the

same time until the red light appears under the

Input Selector

e

and the

Program/ SPL

Indicator

c

flashes amber.

2. Press the

Play

button

x

. The

Program/SPL

Indicator

c

will stop flashing and stay

amber.

3. Press and release the

Input Selector

button

e

for the device that will be used to change

the channels. The


c

will blink green three times and then go

out to confirm the data entry.

Example:

To control the transport of a DVD

player while the remote is set to control the TV,

first press the

VID 2/TV Input Selector

but-

ton

e

and the

Mute

button

at the

same time. Next, release them and press the

Play

button

x

, followed by the

DVD Input

Selector

button

e

.

NOTE:

To remove the Channel Control Punch-

Through and return the remote to its original con-

figuration, repeat the steps shown in the example

above. However, press the

VID 2/TV Input

Selector

in Steps 1 and 3.

NOTE:

Before programming the remote for

Volume, Channel or Transport Punch-Through,

make certain that any programming needed for

the specific TV, CD, DVD, Cable or Satellite

Receivers has been completed.
