To clear the System Macro of a

label

In Step 5 (page 35), while pressing

the Label Select button

corresponding to the label that

you want to erase, press the

SCROLL button. (The labels for

which the System Macro is

programmed stay lit.)

“

CLEAR OK

”

appears and the

System Macro is cleared with a

beep sound.

The cleared label flashes together

with other labels which have no

System Macro data.

If the character contents of the

label have been changed

To clear the character contents of that

label, perform the same procedure

above again. The input contents are

cleared and the label display returns to

the original setting.

When you clear the System

Macro overwritten over the

SONY OFF label

The overwritten System Macro is

cleared when you perform the

procedure above and the factory

presetting returns to the SONY OFF

label.

If the character contents of the SONY

OFF label have been changed, the

character contents are cleared when

you perform the procedure above

again. The input contents are cleared

and the label display returns to

“

SONY

OFF.

”

Note

When you select the label for which the

System Macro is programmed, the

‘

NG

’

sound is heard. If you release the Label

Select button then, data is not cleared

and the System Macro signal is

transmitted.

Notes on System Control

Operations

•

If the remote control detectors of

the components are too far apart,

or if something is blocking them,

some of the components may not

operate consecutively even after

you select the System Macro

number label.

•

If some of the components did

not operate correctly because of

the above or for any other

reason, always set all the

components back to the states

they were in before you select

the System Macro number label.

Failure to do this can result in

incorrect operation when you

select the System Macro number

label again.

•

Some components may not

always be powered on by the

System Control function. This is

because the power of the

component goes on and off

alternatively when receiving the

power on/off signal. In this case,

check the operating component

’

s

power on/off state before using

the system control function.
