Multi Operations

Page 75 highlights

Using Other Functions Multi Operations Multi operations allow you to tell the receiver and your other components to do a number of things with the push of only two buttons on the remote control. For example, you can program the unit to turn on your TV, turn on your DVD player and start playing the loaded DVD. This allows you to freely decide which operations you want performed as well as the order in which you want them performed. The steps below show you how to program a string of up to 5 different operations for each MULTI CONTROL button. You don't need to program power commands for this receiver or any other Pioneer components. They will automatically turn on when a multi operation is performed. (Programming Pioneer video components automatically turns on Pioneer TVs.) Memo: • Be sure to set up each component before programming multi operations (see "Setting Up the Remote Con- trol to Control Other Components" on page 62). • To exit from the REMOTE SETUP mode at anytime press the REMOTE SETUP button. 1 While holding down the REMOTE SETUP button press 3 to select the multi operation setup mode. The LED begins to blink. To cancel the multi operation setup mode press REMOTE SETUP. 2 Select a MULTI CONTROL button for this multi operation. The LED lights and remains lit. Each MULTI CONTROL button can be used for one multi operation. If a multi operation relates to using a DVD player, for example, it makes sense to select the DVD/LD button. 3 Press the MULTI CONTROL button for the component that will perform the step in the multi operation, then press the operation button you want. For example, press CD then  (play), if you want to start CD playback. Buttons that can be programmed with Multi Operations 75 EXPERT

Multi Operations
Multi operations allow you to tell the receiver and your other components to do a number of things with the push of
only two buttons on the remote control. For example, you can program the unit to turn on your TV, turn on your DVD
player and start playing the loaded DVD. This allows you to freely decide which operations you want performed as
well as the order in which you want them performed. The steps below show you how to program a string of up to 5
different operations for each MULTI CONTROL button. You don't need to program power commands for this receiver
or any other Pioneer components. They will automatically turn on when a multi operation is performed.
