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 input source buttons) will be selected by both the receiver and 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.2 Programming a multi-operation or a shutdown sequence CD DVD DVR 2 TV DVR1 TVCTRL CD-R/TAPE HDMI2 XM RADIO ROOM 2 iPod HDMI1 TUNER RECEIVER SLEEP VIDEO SEL ANALOG ATT AV PARAMETER TOP MENU TUNE DTVMENU ST SETUP ENTER CH LEVEL MENU ST T.EDIT RETURN TUNE GUIDE CATEGORY TV CONTROL BAND 1 While pressing the RECEIVER button, press SETUP.
