Remote Control of Other Components Setting up the DIRECT FUNCTION The direct function will not be necessary for most users. It is designed in case you have an external video source connected to your TV (a video source that is not going through the VSX-43TX). For this explanation we'll call this the external video deck. You'd like to control external video deck with this unit's remote control so you've assigned it a function button (for example purposes, the VCR 2 button). Yet, if you put the receiver in VCR 2 mode you'll get no picture on your TV because the external video deck signal is not going through the VSX-43TX. To get around this problem you set the DIRECT FUNCTION for VCR 2 to OFF. Now when you press VCR 2 function button you can control the external video deck with the remote but the receiver does not go into VCR 2 mode. memo • To exit from the remote control setup mode at any time, press REMOTE SETUP. • The default setting for all DIRECT FUNCTIONs is ON. 2 3 3 1 RECEIVER MULTI SYSTEM SOURCE OPERATION OFF DVD/LD MULTI CONTROL TV / SAT VCR/DVR TV CONT VCR 2 CD TUNER MOVIE MUSIC ACOUSTIC EQ RECEIVER INPUT SURROUND MODE SB CH MULTI CH MODE INPUT STEREO/ DIRECT ENTER MIDNIGHT MUTE MASTER VOLUME MENU TUNER EDIT TOP MENU SYSTEM SETUP ST AUDIO TUNE GUIDE ST ENTER TUNE RETURN − + CHANNEL DTV ON/OFF BAND CHANNEL D.ACCESS MPX CLASS DIMMER LOUDNESS TONE EFFECT/CH SEL ENTER SIGNAL SEL DNR BASS/TREBLE DISC VIDEO SEL HI-BIT +− +10 TV CONTROL SUB TITLE INPUT SELECT CHANNEL VOLUME REMOTE SETUP LED 1 RECEIVER 1 While holding down the REMOTE SETUP button press to select the direct function setup mode.
