Learning Commands from Another Remote Controller

The AV receiver’s remote controller can learn the com- mands of other remote controllers simply by pointing them at each other. For example, by transmitting the Play command from your CD player’s remote controller, the remote controller can learn it and then transmit the same command when its Play [ ] button is pressed in CD mode.

This is convenient when you want to add commands to buttons after entering a remote control code (page 78).

Point the remote controllers at

each other, about 2 to 6 inches

(5–15 cm) apart, and then, on the

other remote controller, press the

button whose command you

want to learn.

To teach the AV receiver’s remote

controller more new commands, repeat steps 2 and 3.

Press the [ON] button when you’ve ﬁn- ished.

Notes:

•The following buttons cannot be taught new com- mands: REMOTE MODE, MACRO [1], [2], [3], TV

[ ], TV [INPUT], TV CH [+]/[–], TV VOL []/ [ ].

•The AV receiver’s remote controller can learn up to approximately 150 commands. However, the com- mands of some remote controllers may use a lot of memory, which will decrease the number of com- mands that can be learned.

•By default, the AV receiver’s remote controller knows the commands for controlling an Onkyo CD player, cassette deck, DVD player, and MD player (e.g., Play, Stop, Pause, etc., buttons). These buttons can learn new commands, although the defaults will be restored if the remote controller is reset.

•To learn a new command for a button that has already learned one, simply repeat this procedure.

•Like most remote controllers, the AV receiver’s remote controller uses infrared. Commands from remote controllers that don’t use infrared cannot be learned.

•When the remote controller’s batteries expire, all learned commands will be lost and will have to be learned all over again, so don’t discard your other remote controllers.
