CONFIGURING THE REMOTE Renaming Individual Keys Thanks to the programming flexibility of the AVR remote, an individual button on the remote may be assigned a feature or function that is different from the name that appears as the factory default when the button is pressed. However, with the Rename Key function it is possible to rename almost any button on the remote so that when the button is pressed you will see a more descriptive or appropriate name displayed. To rename a specific button on the remote, follow these steps. For this example, we will show you how to rename the DSP Surround Mode Selector 6, which is normally not used when DVD is selected, so that it reads ZOOM in the remote's display. 1. Press and hold the Program Button O for about three seconds while the message shown in Figure 17 appears in the remote's LCD Information Display 2. Release the button when the red light under the Set Button q appears. 2. The remote's MAIN MENU message (Figure 16), will appear in the LCD display and the Set Button q will remain illuminated in red. Press the ⁄/¤ Navigation Button o until RENAME appears on the bottom line of the LCD screen, as shown in Figure 68. 3. At the next menu screen press the ⁄/¤ Navigation Button o until RENAME KEY appears on the bottom line of the LCD screen, as shown in Figure 71. Press the Set Button q to continue. RENAME RENAME KEY Figure 71 4. The next display screen (Figure 72) is where you select the device within which the key to be renamed exists. Press the ⁄/¤ Navigation Buttons o until the name of the base device appears. In our example, since we want to rename a button within the DVD device memory, DVD should appear in the lower line of the LCD. When the desired device name appears, press the Set Button q. SELECT A DEVICE DVD Figure 72 5. At the next menu screen you will select the first button within the device to be renamed, as instructed in the display shown in Figure 73. Select the button by simply pressing it on the remote. SELECT A KEY Figure 73 6. Depending on whether or not the button pressed already has a named function within the device selected, one of two things will happen. a. If the button to be renamed already has a preprogrammed, or previously renamed title in the remote's memory, you will see that name on the top line of the LCD display, and a blinking block cursor will appear on the far left side of the bottom line of the display, as shown in Figure 74. DISC SKIP Figure 74 b. If the button to be renamed does not have a function in the device selected, the top line of the LCD screen will be blank, and a blinking block cursor will appear on the far left side of the bottom line of the display, as shown in Figure 75. Figure 75 7. To enter the new name for the key, press the Numeric Keys A. The letters above the numbered buttons indicate which letters or symbols will appear when the button is pressed during the renaming process. The first press of the button will enter the first character shown, subsequent presses of the same button will change the display to the other letters above that numbered key. For example, since the first letter we need to rename the Tone button to Zoom is a "Z," so you would locate the "Z" above the "9" button, and press the button four times. The first press shows a "W," the subsequent presses step through the other letters available until the "Z" appears. Consult the table on this page to see which characters are available by pressing a particular button. 8. After you enter the first letter of the new device name, there are three options for entering the next character: a. To enter a letter that requires a different numeric key to be pressed, simply press that button. The cursor will automatically move to the next position and the first letter accessed by the new button will appear. Following our example, the next letter needed is an "O," so you would press the "6" button once. b. To enter a letter that uses the same numeric key, you must first press the › Navigation Button o to move the blinking cursor block to the next position. Then press the Numeric Key A as required to enter the desired letter. This is the way you would enter the second "O" in the word ZOOM, and again for the letter "M." c. To enter a blank space, press the › Navigation Button o twice. The first press will move the cursor to the right, and the second press will move the cursor one more space to the right, leaving a blank space between the last letter and the next one. 9. Repeat Steps 7 and 8 as needed to complete entering the needed letters, numbers, characters and spaces. 10. When the text entry is complete, press the Set Button q. The new name will be entered into the remote's memory, replacing the default name. 11. At this point you have two options: a. If you wish to program an additional key within the same device, press the Set Button q as instructed by the bottom line of the LCD display reading ANOTHER KEY. The remote will return to the SELECT A KEY menu option as shown in Step 6. Repeat the instructions in Steps 6 though 11 to rename the next key. b. If you have no additional keys to rename, press the ⁄ Navigation Button o once so that the menu screen displays EXIT on the bottom line of the display. Press the Set Button q to return the remote to normal operation. NOTES ON RENAMING KEYS: • Renaming a key does not change its function. You may change the function of an individual key by learning a new code into the remote. See page 41 for more information. • When a key is renamed it will only apply to the specific device selected in Step 4. The same key may be renamed as needed for each individual device with which it is used. Resetting the Remote Depending on the way in which the remote has been programmed, there may be a situation where you wish to totally erase all changes that have been made to the remote and return it to the factory defaults. You may do that by following the steps shown below, but remember that once the remote is reset, ALL changes that have been made, including programming for use with other devices, learned keys, macros, punchthrough settings and key names, will be erased and 48 CONFIGURING THE REMOTE

Renaming Individual Keys
Thanks to the programming flexibility of the AVR
remote, an individual button on the remote may be
assigned a feature or function that is different from the
name that appears as the factory default when the
button is pressed. However, with the Rename Key
function it is possible to rename almost any button on
the remote so that when the button is pressed you will
see a more descriptive or appropriate name displayed.
To rename a specific button on the remote, follow
these steps. For this example, we will show you how to
rename the
DSP Surround Mode Selector
6
,
which is normally not used when DVD is selected, so
that it reads
ZOOM
in the remote’s display.
1. Press and hold the
Program Button
O
for
about three seconds while the message shown
in Figure 17 appears in the remote’s
LCD
Information Display

. Release the button
when the red light under the
Set Button
q
appears.
2.
The remote’s
MAIN MENU
message (Figure 16),
will appear in the LCD display and the
Set Button

until the name of the base device
appears. In our example, since we want to rename
a button within the DVD device memory,
DVD
should appear in the lower line of the LCD. When
the desired device name appears, press the
Set
Button

6. Depending on whether or not the button pressed
already has a named function within the device
selected, one of two things will happen.
a. If the button to be renamed already has a pre-
programmed, or previously renamed title in the
remote’s memory, you will see that name on
the top line of the LCD display, and a blinking
block cursor will appear on the far left side of
the bottom line of the display, as shown in
Figure 74.

b. If the button to be renamed does not have a
function in the device selected, the top line of
the LCD screen will be blank, and a blinking
block cursor will appear on the far left side
of the bottom line of the display, as shown in
Figure 75.
Figure 75
7.To enter the new name for the key, press the
Numeric Keys
A
. The letters above the
numbered buttons indicate which letters or sym-
bols will appear when the button is pressed during
the renaming process. The first press of the but-
ton will enter the first character shown, subse-
quent presses of the same button will change the
display to the other letters above that numbered
key. For example, since the first letter we need to
rename the Tone button to Zoom is a “Z,” so you
would locate the “Z” above the “9” button, and
press the button four times. The first press shows
a “W,” the subsequent presses step through the
other letters available until the “Z” appears.
Consult the table on this page to see which
characters are available by pressing a particular
button.
8. After you enter the first letter of the new device
name, there are three options for entering the
next character:
a.
To enter a letter that requires a different numeric
key to be pressed, simply press that button.
The cursor will automatically move to the next
position and the first letter accessed by the new
button will appear. Following our example, the
next letter needed is an “O,” so you would press
the “6” button once.
b.To enter a letter that uses the same numeric
key, you must first press the
›
Navigation
Button
o
to move the blinking cursor block
to the next position. Then press the
Numeric
Key
A
as required to enter the desired letter.
This is the way you would enter the second “O”
in the word ZOOM, and again for the letter “M.”
c.To enter a blank space, press the
›
Navigation
Button
o
twice. The first press will move the
cursor to the right, and the second press will
move the cursor one more space to the right,
leaving a blank space between the last letter
and the next one.
9. Repeat Steps 7 and 8 as needed to complete
entering the needed letters, numbers, characters
and spaces.
10. When the text entry is complete, press the
Set
Button
q
. The new name will be entered into
the remote’s memory, replacing the default name.
11. At this point you have two options:
a. If you wish to program an additional key within
the same device, press the
Set Button
q
as
instructed by the bottom line of the LCD display
reading
ANOTHER KEY
. The remote will
return to the
SELECT A KEY
menu option
as shown in Step 6. Repeat the instructions in
Steps 6 though 11 to rename the next key.
b. If you have no additional keys to rename, press
the
⁄
Navigation Button
o
once so that
the menu screen displays
EXIT
on the bottom
line of the display. Press the
Set Button
q
to return the remote to normal operation.
NOTES ON RENAMING KEYS:
• Renaming a key does not change its function. You
may change the function of an individual key by
learning a new code into the remote. See page 41
for more information.
• When a key is renamed it will only apply to the
specific device selected in Step 4. The same key
may be renamed as needed for each individual
device with which it is used.
Resetting the Remote
Depending on the way in which the remote has been
programmed, there may be a situation where you wish
to totally erase all changes that have been made to
the remote and return it to the factory defaults. You
may do that by following the steps shown below, but
remember that once the remote is reset, ALL changes
that have been made, including programming for use
with other devices, learned keys, macros, punch-
through settings and key names, will be erased and
