above, except that in Steps 4 and 5, select the same

device for both the

DEVICE IN USE

remote to default settings will appear as shown in

Figure 63.

Channel Punch-Through

Channel punch-through allows the Channel Up/Down

buttons to send commands to a different device than

the one selected for other commands. For example,

you may wish to use a cable box or satellite receiver

as the source for a VCR, so you would

want the

Channel Up/Down Buttons

¸

to transmit com-

mands to the cable box even though the other button

commands are programmed to operate the VCR.

To program the remote for channel punch-through,

follow these steps. This example will show how to

program channel punch-through so that the com-

mands programmed for Channel Up/Down for the

VID 3/Cable device will be transmitted when the

VID 1/VCR device has been selected as the

current device.

1. Press and hold the

Program Button

O

for

about three seconds while the message shown

in Figure 24 appears in the remote’s

returned to the factory default setting, follow the steps

shown above, except that in Steps 4 and 5, select

the same device for both the

DEVICE IN USE

on

the left side of the bottom line and the

Transport Controls are set at the factory to oper-

ate your DVD player, or the controls of a specific

device such as a VCR or CD player when they are

selected. However, by using the Transport Punch-

Through feature you may program these controls to

example, you may wish to operate the transport of a

second VCR connected to the VID 2/TV input, as

shown in the following example.
