figuration, repeat the steps shown above.

However, press the same button in Steps 1 and 3.

Transport Control Punch-Through

The AVR 120

’

s remote may be programmed to

operate so that the

Transport Control

Functions

w

(Play, Stop, Fast Forward, Rewind,

Pause and Record) for a VCR, cassette deck, DVD

or CD will operate in conjunction with one of the

other devices controlled by the remote. For exam-

ple, while using and controlling the TV, you may

wish to start or stop your VCR or DVD without

having to change the device selected by the

AVR 120 or the remote.To program the remote

for Transport Control Punch-Through, follow

these steps:

1. Press the

Input Selector

e

for the device

you will be using (e.g., TV) when you wish to

have Transport Control Punch-Through active

and the

Mute Button

at the same time

until the red light appears under the

Input

Selector

e

and the

Program Indicator

c

flashes amber.

2. Press the

Play Button

w

. The

Program

Indicator

c

will stop flashing and stay amber.

3. Press and release the

Input Selector Button

e

for the device whose transport mechanism

will be controlled (e.g., DVD, CD). The

Program

Indicator

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

VID2/TV Input Selector

Button

e

and the

Mute Button

at

the same time. Next, release them and press

the

Play Button

w

, 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 above.

However, press the same button in Steps 1 and 3.

Reassigning Device Control

Selectors

Although each

Input Selector

e

is normally

assigned to the category of product shown on the

remote, it is possible to reassign one of these but-

tons to operate a second device of another type.

For example, if you have two VCRs but no satellite

receiver, you may program the

“

SAT

”

button to

operate a second VCR. Before following the nor-

mal programming steps for either Three-Digit entry

or Auto Search code entry, you must first reassign

the button with the following steps:

1. Press the

Input Selector

e

you wish to

reassign and the

Mute Button

at the

same time until the red light appears under the

Input Selector

e

and the

Program

Indicator

c

flashes amber.

2. Press the

Input Selector

e

for the device

type you wish to program into the reassigned

button.

3. Enter the three-digit code for the specific

model you wish the reassigned button to

operate.

4. Press the same

Input Selector

e

pressed in

Step 1 once again to store the selection. The

red LED under the reassigned Input Selector will

flash three times and then go out.

Example:

To use the CBL/SAT button to oper-

ate a second VCR, first press the

CBL/SAT

Input Selector

e

and the

Mute Button

at the same time until the red light glows

under the

CBL/SAT Button

e

. Press the

VCR Button

e

, followed by the three-digit

code for the specific model you wish to control.

Finally, press the

CBL/SAT Button

e

again.

Resetting the Remote Memory

As you add components to your home theater

system, occasionally you may wish to totally repro-

gram the remote control without the confusion of

any commands, macros or

”

Punch-Through

“

pro-

gramming that you may have done. To do this, it is

possible to reset the remote to the original factory

defaults and command codes by following these

steps. Note, however, that once the remote is

reset, all commands or codes that you have

entered will be erased and will need to be

reentered:

1. Press any of the

Input Selector Buttons

e

and the

”

O

“

Button

r

at the same time

until the

Program Indicator

c

begins to

flash amber.

2. Press the

”

3

“

Button

r

three times.

3. The red LED under the

Input Selector

e

will

go out and the

Program Indicator

c

will

stop flashing and turn green.

4. The

Program Indicator

c

will remain green

until the remote is reset. Note that this may

take a while, depending on how many com-

mands are in the memory and need to be

erased.

5. When the

Program Indicator

c

goes out,

the remote has been reset to the factory

settings.
