Programming the commands of remote controllers for other devices into the remote controller

4.Press and hold down the button (that corresponds to the command you are programming) on the remote controller of the other device until the SEND/LEARN lamp on the remote controller flashes twice.

After flashing twice, the SEND/LEARN indicator will light again.

5.Repeat Steps 3 and 4 to transfer all the commands you desire from the other remote controller and program them to buttons on the remote controller under the same MODE.

Repeat Steps 2 through 4 to program commands to a different MODE (e.g., when programming from a different remote controller).

6.Press the MODE button that you pressed in step 2 to complete the programming.

7.Operate the newly programmed buttons to make sure the learning function was performed properly.

Notes:

•The remote controller codes for Onkyo compact disc players, cassette tape decks, DVD players, and mini disc recorder have already been programmed into buttons on the remote controller. You may, however, use these buttons to program the codes for other remote controllers. If you wish to restore the Onkyo preset codes after you program new codes, you must first erase the new codes (see page 66).

•The remote controller has 408 memory slots (8 modes ⋅ 51 buttons). Some remote controllers may have more commands that can be remembered by the remote controller. In such cases, it will be necessary for you to determine which commands are more important than others.

•If no button is pressed for more than 30 seconds during the programming, or if you perform an invalid operation during programming, the SEND/LEARN indicator flashes three times quickly, and the remote controller exits the programming mode. Resume from Step 2.

•If a failure occurs during programming, the SEND/LEARN indicator flashes three times quickly, and the remote controller exits the programming mode. Resume from Step 3.

•If a failure occurs five times in row during programming, the remote controller exits the programming mode. Resume from Step 3.

•If you try to program beyond the learning capacity of the remote controller, the SEND/LEARN indicator flashes six times quickly, and the remote controller exits the programming mode. Try programming under a different MODE button.

•When you want to program a command to a button to which you have already programmed a command, simply follow the same procedure given and programming for that button will be overwritten.

•The remote controller uses infrared rays to send its commands, as do most other remote controllers. Though most remote controller codes can be memorized by the remote controller, be aware that some remote controllers use a system that is quite different from the remote controller and therefore may not be able to be programmed.

•Some remote controllers have a single button that performs multiple functions (for example, the function may change each time the button is pressed). If this is the case, each function must be programmed to a separate button on the remote controller.

•Once you have transferred the commands from the other remote controller, refer to the instruction manual that came with that product for instructions on how to operate that product.

•Make sure both the remote controller and the other remote controller have new batteries. If either of them has batteries that are low, you may not be able to program the commands of the other remote controller properly into the remote controller.

See page 70 for how to erase the memorized commands from all buttons.
