08 Controlling other equipment Direct function • Default setting: On (all components) You can use the direct function feature to control one component using the remote control while at the same time, using your receiver to playback a different component. This could let you, for example, use the remote control to set up and listen to a CD on the receiver and then use the remote control to rewind a tape in your VCR while you continue to listen to your CD player. When direct function is on, any component you select (using the MULTI CONTROL buttons) will be selected by both the receiver and the remote control. When you turn direct function off, you can operate the remote control without affecting the receiver. Multi Operation and System off The Multi Operation feature allows you to program a series of commands for the components in your system. For example, you could turn on your TV, turn on your DVD player and start playing the loaded DVD using only two buttons on the remote control. Similar to multi operations, System Off allows you to use one button to stop and switch off a series of components in your system at the same time. Note • Before Multi Operation and System Off will work correctly, you must setup the remote to work with your TV and other components (see Recalling preset codes on page 53 and Programming signals from other remote controls on page 54 for more on this). • Power on and off commands only work with components that have a standby mode. Programming a multi-operation 1 While holding down the REMOTE SETUP button press 4 to select the direct function setup mode. The LED begins to blink. 2 Press the MULTI CONTROL button for the component you want to set.
