SAT, CABLE, VCR, and TV MODE buttons

No preset codes are programmed into the SAT, CABLE, VCR, and TV MODE buttons. You can use these buttons to program the remote controller signals of other devices.

There are two methods. One method is selecting the name of a different brand from the table, entering the setting number listed, and calling up the pre-programming code (see page 59). The other method is learning the commands from the other brand’s remote control directly into this remote controller (see page 63).

When in the SAT, CABLE and VCR mode, you may use the following buttons:

VOL : Adjusts the volume at the TX-DS898

MUTING: Activates the muting function at the TX-DS898
