Controlling a DVD player Buttons with programmed usage and operations are the same as the operational buttons on page 31. When entering the code of Onkyo DVD players There are three SETTING numbers. Choose the SETTING number according to how you will be using the DVD player. No. 02/03: These codes are for operating the Onkyo DVD player by pointing the remote controller directly at it, either because it does not have an z connector, or it does but you are not using an z cable and connecting it. With the initial setting of the RC-446M, the code is set to 03. If it does not operate properly, enter 02. No. 01: This code is for Onkyo DVD players that have an z connector that you are connecting to the HT-R490 with an z cable. You will then operate the DVD player by pointing the remote controller at the remote control sensor on the HT-R490. With the initial setting of the RC-446M, the code is set to 03.
