Controlling Other Components

You can use the AV Receiver’s remote controller (RC-590M/RC-591M) to control your other compo- nents, including those made by other manufacturers. This chapter explains how to:

•Enter the remote control code for a component that you want to control (e.g., DVD, TV, VCR).

•Learn commands directly from another component’s remote controller (see page 86).

•Program the Macro function to perform a sequence of actions with a single press of a button (see page 87).

Entering Remote Control Codes

Entering the appropriate remote control code for each REMOTE MODE button will allow you to control your other components with the remote controller.You’ll need to perform this procedure for each component that you want to control.

For the [DVD], [TV], [VCR], [CABLE], and [SAT] but- tons, choose a code from the respective category. For the [CD] and [MD/CDR] buttons, you can choose a code from any category. Remote control codes cannot be entered for the [RECEIVER] and [ZONE 2] buttons.
