The addition of the second chip gives far more capacity than needed (it essentially gives the memory the capacity to store more than 1200 IR codes, when there are only addresses to store 416). The IntelliFile II software will indicate that you are out of memory when the text describing the codes you are dragging and dropping into your configuration turns red. For more information on what happens when you run out of memory, see Memory Usage on page 28 of the IntelliFile II Reference Manual.

If you do manage to legitimately run out of memory (see Memory Usage above), You may continue to program with your software, but do not attempt to transfer the program to the MSU until after you have added the second chip. If you do, the codes will be scrambled and your system will experience extremely erratic operation.

Note: Some manufacturer’s codes (including Panasonic, RCA, and Pioneer) eat up excessive memory. Be sure to teach these codes with quick bursts from the remote. DO NOT PRESS AND HOLD WHILE TEACHING THESE CODES. Certain codes (Volume,

FF/ Rew, etc.) require a “press-and-hold” of the button to learn and operate properly. Only hold the button as long as necessary to ensure proper operation. It is strongly suggested that you test all codes as you teach them!

If you unexpectedly run into the Memory limit and must get the system partially operational for the customer until the Memory Upgrade chip arrives, the best strategy is to erase a few IR commands, and transfer the program to the MSU with limited manual operation. Then phone the office and have them order the Memory Upgrade (FG#00735).

When the Memory Upgrade Chip arrives, go back to the jobsite and complete the programming. Note: The Memory Upgrade (or lack of memory) does not affect the automation that occurs as the system is powered up and shut down, it only affects the ability to store an additional number of IR codes in the Function Keys’ memory address locations.

3C. Master Key Automation: Part 1 - One Touch System Turn On

By pressing a Master Key, the end user will trigger the following programmed “Events” to occur. These events are displayed in the “Master Key Navigator” feature of the IntelliFile II software. The “System Turn On” automation will power up and configure the home theater system based on the actual status of the components at the time the Master key was pressed.

Note: “System Turn On” automation is an automatic function of the IntelliControl System. DO NOT attempt to manually program the “System Turn On” automation by including the TV, Preamp, and Component power commands in the “Initial Sequences” for the Master Keys. This will bypass all the sync features and the built-in intelligence which has made the IntelliControl such a successful product.

The “TV Power”, “Preamp Power”, and “Component Power” commands are entered on their respective “Tabs” in the IntelliFile II software. The appropriate “Power” commands are automatically issued based on the “Audio Scene”, “Video Scene”, and “Component Power” programming which is configured on the “Components” Tab in IntelliFile II. For more Information, see Scene Setting on page 25 of the IntelliFile II Reference Manual.
