Note

The remote control signals may be different for

some components or functions. In this case,

program the remote control signals with the

learning function (see page 19). Note, however,

that components and functions that do not

support the remote control of infrared signals

will not work with this Commander.

To control the volume

Press the VOLUME +/

–

buttons to

control the volume, and the MUTING

button to mute. When you select a visual

component, the TV

’

s volume will be

controlled, and when you select an audio

component, the amplifier

’

s volume will

be controlled. You can change this setting

also (page 29).

Notes

•

If you have programmed any signal for the

VOLUME or MUTING button for any

component using the learning function (page

19), that signal will be transmitted instead of

controlling the volume of the TV or amplifier

once you select that component.

•

If you have programmed any signal for the

VOLUME +/

–

buttons or the MUTING

button of TV or AMP using the learning

function, that signal will be also transmitted

when you select another component.

However, if you have programmed any

signal for the VOLUME +/

–

buttons or the

MUTING button of another component, that

signal will be transmitted only after you

select that component.

•

If you have assigned another component to

the TV or AMP button, the volume of the TV

or amplifier cannot be controlled even when

you select other components.
