REMOTE CONTROL FEATURES Programming a New Remote Control Function (Learn Feature) If you want to program functions not included in the basic operations covered by the manufacturer code, or a manufacturer code is not available, the following procedure needs to be performed. You can program functions to all buttons except DSP and INPUT in all positions of the selector dial other than AMP/TUN and DSP/TUN, so the buttons are programmable independently for each position of the selector dial. y • You can program about 60 buttons. Note • This remote control transmits infrared rays. If the other remote control also uses infrared rays, this remote control can learn most of the other remote control's functions. However, you may not be able to program some special signals or extremely long transmissions. (Refer to the operation instructions for the other remote control.) 1 Set the selector dial to the desired position for the component to be programmed. 2 Place this remote control and the other remote control about 10 to 40 mm (3/8" to 1-1/2") apart on a flat surface so that their infrared transmitters are aimed at each other 10 to 40 mm (3/8" to 1-1/2") 3 Press and hold e and p at the same time for about 4 seconds. The indicator flashes twice. Note • If you do not press any button within 30 seconds during steps 4 and 5, the indicator flashes twice and the learning process is canceled. If this happens, start over from step 3. 4 Press the button for which you want to program the new function. The indicator lights up. Lights up 5 Press and hold the button on the other remote control that has the function you want to program into this remote control until the indicator goes off. Goes off Notes • If this remote control cannot receive the signals from other remote control, the indicator flashes rapidly. • When the memory is full, the indicator flashes twice and this remote control cannot acquire any more functions. Clear unnecessary programmed functions to allow this remote control to acquire new functions. • If you do not press any button within 30 seconds after step 5, the indicator flashes twice. This indicates that the learning process is complete and the remote control has exited from the learning mode. 6 Repeat steps 4 and 5 to program additional functions. 7 Press DSP or INPUT, or turn the selector dial to exit from the learning mode. The indicator flashes twice. Notes • Even if the batteries in the other remote control have enough power to transmit signals for operation, they may not have enough power to transmit signals to this remote control. • When the remote controls are either too close together or too far apart, you may not be able to program this remote control. • Direct sunlight interferes with infrared rays. Memory back-up If the remote control is without batteries for more than 2 minutes, or if exhausted batteries remain in the remote control, the contents of the memory may be cleared. When the memory is cleared, insert new batteries, set up the manufacturer code and program any acquired functions that may have been cleared. 52
