each button press, including those used to change

devices, counts as a step. The

Programmed Device Functions

Once the AVR 140’s remote has been programmed for

the codes of other devices, press the appropriate

Input

Selector

e

to change the remote from controlling

the AVR 140 to controlling the additional product. When

you press any one of the selectors, it will briefly flash in

red to indicate that you have changed the device being

controlled.

When operating a device other than the AVR 140, the

controls may not correspond exactly to the function

printed on the remote or button. Some commands,

such as the volume control, are the same as they are

with the AVR 140. Other buttons will change their

function so that they correspond to a secondary label

on the remote. For example, the Sleep and Surround

mode selector buttons also function as the Channel Up

and Channel Down buttons when operating most TV

sets, VCRs or cable boxes. The Channel Up/Down

indication is printed directly on the remote. For many

standard CD players, cassette decks, VCRs and DVD

functions, the standard function icons are printed on

top of the buttons.

For some products, however, the function of a particu-

lar button does not follow the command printed on

the remote. In order to see which function a button

controls, consult the Function List tables on pages 41

and 42. To use those tables, first check the type of

device being controlled (e.g., TV, VCR). Next, look at

the remote control diagram in Figure 13. Note that

each button has a number on it.

T

o find out what function a particular button has for

a specific device, find the button number on the

Function List and then look in the column for the device

you are controlling. For example, button number 45

is the Direct button for the AVR 140, but it is the

“Favorite” button for many cable television boxes

and satellite receivers. Button number 31 is the Delay

button for the AVR 140, but the Open/Close button for

CD players.

NOTE:

The numbers used to describe the button

functions in Figure 13 for the purposes of describing

how a button operates are a different set of numbers

than those used in the rest of this manual to describe

the button functions for the AVR 140.

NOTES ON USING THE AVR 140 REMOTE WITH

OTHER DEVICES:

•

Manufacturers may use different code sets for the

same product category. For that reason, it is impor-

tant that you check whether the code set you have

entered operates as many controls as possible. If

only a few functions operate, check whether another

code set will work with more buttons.
