Controlling Other Components You can control your other components, including those made by other manufacturers, with the remote controller. This section explains how to: • Enter the remote control code for a component that you want to control: DVD, TV, VCR, etc. • Learn commands directly from another component's remote controller (see page 140). • Program the MACRO buttons to perform a sequence of up to eight remote control actions (see page 141). Entering Remote Control Codes To control another component, you must first enter that component's remote control code to a REMOTE MODE button. You'll need to enter a code for each component that you want to control.
