PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE

Programming the Remote

Learning Codes

In addition to using codes from the remote’s

internal code library, the AVR 7000’s remote is

able to “learn” codes from remotes that may

not be in the code library. In addition, you may

use this function to “learn over” the codes from

a preprogrammed device to add functions not

included in the preprogrammed codes. To learn

or transfer codes from an IR remote to the

AVR 7000’s remote, follow these steps:

1. Place the front of the original remote with

the code being sent so that it is facing the

IR Transmitter Window

on the

AVR 7000 remote “head-to-head.”The

remotes should be between one and three

inches apart.

2. Select the button on the remote that you

wish to use as the device selector for the

codes about to be entered. This may be any

of the

CD

/

Tape

/

DVD Input Selectors

c

or the

Video Remote Selectors

.

3. Press the

Device Selector

button chosen

c

and the

Set

Button

i

at the

same time. Hold these buttons until the

Program Indicator light

a

turns orange

and the red light under the device selector

button turns red. Release the buttons.

4. Press the button on the AVR 7000 remote

that you wish to program. Note that the


a

will begin to

flash continuously and the red light under

the device selector will go out. Note that

any button on the remote EXCEPT the AVR

button

b

, the

CD

/

Tape

/

DVD Input

Selectors

c

or the

Video Remote

Selectors

and the

Light

button

t

may be “taught” a remote code from

another remote.

5. Within five seconds, press and hold the but-

ton on the original remote that you wish to

“teach” into the AVR 7000 remote. When

the


a

turns

green, release the button. Note that the

Program Indicator will then begin to flash

orange again.

6. Within five seconds, press the same button

on the source remote again to verify that the

remote code has been learned correctly. The


a

will flash

green twice and then turn to a steady

orange color indicating that the program-

ming was successful.

NOTE

: If the


a

turns red during step 5 or 6, the program-

ming was not successful. Repeat the steps to

see if the code will “take.”

7. Repeat steps 4 though 6 for each button on

the source remote that you wish to transfer

to the AVR 7000 remote.

8. Once all codes have been transferred from

the original source remote to the AVR 7000

remote, press and hold the

Device Selector

button

c

for the device being pro-

grammed and the

Set

Button

i

at the

same time until the

Program Indicator

light

a

flashes orange twice. Release the

buttons.

9. Repeat Steps 1 through 8 for any additional

remotes you wish to “teach” into the

AVR 7000 Remote.

Macro Programming

Macros enable you to easily repeat frequently

used combinations of commands with the press

of a single button on the AVR’s remote control.

Once programmed, a macro will send out

up to eight different remote codes in a pre-

determined sequential order enabling you to

automate the process of turning on your system,

changing devices, or other common tasks. The

AVR’s remote can store up to five separate

macro command sequences, one that is

associated with the Power Button

d

, and four

more that are accessed by pressing the Macro

buttons

ruv

.

1. Press any of the

Input or Video Selectors

c

and the

Mute

button

f

at the

same time until the red light under the

Device Control Selector turns on.

2. Press the button on the remote that you

wish to use for this remote. This may be

either the

Power

button

d

or any of the

four Macro buttons

ruv

. However,

it is recommended that to avoid confusion,

the Power button only be used to enter

turn-on/turn-off sequences. When you press

the button the macro will be programmed

into the light under

Selector

button

c

will blink once.

3. Enter up to eight steps for the macro

sequence by pressing the

Selector

button

c

for the device to be controlled and

then pressing the button for the actual com-

mand step. Although the macro may contain

up to eight steps, each button press, includ-

ing those used to change devices, count as

a step. The red light under the

Selector

button

c

will blink once to confirm

each button press as you enter commands.

NOTE:

While entering commands for Power

On/Off of any device during a macro sequence,

press the

Mute

button

f

. DO NOT press the

actual Power button.

4. When the eight steps have been entered,

press the

Sleep

button

to enter the

commands. The red light under the

Input

or Video Selectors

c

will blink

and then turn off.

Example:

To program your TV, Cable Box

and the AVR 7000 to turn on when the

Power button is pressed, first press and hold

down the

AVR

button

a

and

Mute

buttons

f

until the red light comes on

under the

AVR

button. Next, press the

Mute

button

f

to enter the Power command for

the AVR. Press the

TV Device Control

Selector

to select the TV mode, and

then press the

Mute

button

f

again, to

select TV Power. Finally, press the

CBL

Device Control Selector

followed

by the

Mute

button

f

to select Cable

Power. Press the

Sleep

button

to enter

the commands.

After following these steps, each time you

press the

Power

button

d

, the remote

will send the Power On/Off command.

To remove a macro program, follow steps 1, 2

and 4 above, but ignore step three. For exam-

ple, to erase the macro just entered, press the

Device Selector

c

and the

Mute

button

f

at the same time until the red light

under the Device Control Selector turns on.

Press the

Power

button

d

and then press

the

Sleep

button

. The red light under the

Device Control Selector

will blink twice to

confirm the data entry and then turn off.
