Troubleshooting (continued) Symptom The S (set) indicator or the Component Select buttons flash five times All Component Select buttons flash twice during an operation A System Control program does not function correctly. All Component Select buttons flash twice Your Commander does not work as expected after Data Transfer Remedy • Learning has not succeeded. See "For accurate Learning" (page 18) and try the Learning procedure again (page 15). • The component codes cannot be set. See the supplied "Component Code Numbers" and try setting the component codes again (page 8). • The data have not been transferred. See "Transferring the data" (page 38) and try transferring the data again. • The data have not been received. See "Receiving the data" (page 40) and try receiving the data again. • Clear infrequently used Learned functions (page 19), then carry out learning operations. • Signals have been programmed for that Component Select or SYSTEM CONTROL button using the Learning function. Clear the "learned" signals (pages 19, 26, 28) and try programming the System Control function again. • Signals have been programmed for that Macro key using the Learning function. Clear the "learned" signals (page 19) and try programming the Channel Macro function for the same key again, or try with another Macro key. • Make sure that you have programmed the commands in the correct order (pages 24, 27). • Try changing the orientation of the Commander. If that does not help, try placing the components as close to each other as possible. • Check the status of the components and make sure that you have set the components properly to receive commands (page 27). • The component code is changed or a new signal is "learned" on a button that has been programmed in the series of commands. In this case, the new signal is transmitted when the series of commands are executed. • The interval may be too short. See "Changing the interval between operation steps" (page 29) and set a longer interval. • The Hold function is on. Unlock the Hold function (page 45). • Data Transfer to/from a single button cannot transfer System Control functions that are "learned" by Component Select buttons. Either set up the "learned" Commander from the start, or perform whole Data Transfer. Note on Commanders with the mark Data Transfer between Commanders with the mark may not always be complete, depending on their functions and keys, and some of the System Control function data may be dropped. 48
