The two remote commanders must: • face straight each other. • be placed at a distance of approx. 5 cm (2 inches). • not be moved during programming operation. After programming Be sure to test if the equipment really works with the programmed signals. Number of signals that the commander can learn It depends on the format of the signal. If you program signals of Sony equipment, approximately 50 - 60 signals can be programmed. Memory capacity If the LEARN indicator flashes or does not go out in step 2-0 , 0 , the memory capacity has become full. This occurs when other signals stronger than the remote-control signals have been stored because the signals were programmed in a noisy environment or the remote commanders were placed too far apart from each other. In this case, clear all the signals following the procedure described below and program again from the beginning under the proper conditions. Notes on programming • Remote-control signals of equipment of manufacturers other than Sony can be programmed only when they are compatible with the infrared wireless remote control system. Since the programmable commander can "learn" only the signals output from another remote commander, it cannot control equipment that does not use a remote commander. • Do not attempt to use the programmable commander with an air conditioner or other household appliances. • Note that there are some special remote-control signals that cannot be programmed. Programming a New Signal onto a Previously Programmed Button Follow the programming procedure. The previously programmed signal is cleared and replaced by the new signal. To clear all programmed signals I Set the mode selector to LEARN. 2 Press and hold any button of the programmable area until the LEARN indicator lights up. 3 Press PROGRAM CLEAR until the LEARN indicator flashes and goes off. Note It is not possible to clear the programmed content of just one button. To program a signal onto the • REC button It is not possible to operate any equipment with only the • REC button. To program a signal under the • REC button, press and hold the following buttons at the same time in step 2-0 Controlling Equipment By switching the mode selector as shown below, a single button alternately controls Sony equipment and another manufacturer equipment. SM ST WI 0 0 CI To control Sony equipment USER STD SOW ILI_ STD LEARN To control equipment with programmed signals USER STD SONY lilt_ STD LEARN Imp' NEN When Sony equipment cannot be remote-controlled Program the signal in the same way as for equipment from other manufacturers. In this case, even with Sony equipment, set the mode selector to USER STD. Notes on Battery If the LEARN indicator does not light when a button is pressed, the batteries are almost exhausted. When the batteries are exhausted, the remote commander can no longer operate the unit or programming becomes impossible. If this happens, replace both batteries with new ones. We recommend the use of alkaline batteries for prolonged use. If no signal has been programmed The programmable commander can control Sony equipment even when the mode selector is set to USER STD. if the equipment works incorrectly Press RESET. The programmed contents of the buttons are not cleared by pressing RESET. 43
