Teaching Other Nº390S Commands

If you change your mind, simply don’t touch any button for ten seconds and the Nº390S will return to normal operation. (Hint: you may remember that this special “hidden” feature of the Nº390S is accessed via a press-and-hold of the repeat button by associating its use with the external IR “repeaters” so often used in custom installations; the functionality found here is of most value in such installations.)

2.Press any front panel button to cause the Nº390S to send the corresponding IR command.

Line up the IR window of your remote control with the left side of the Nº390S display, at a distance of approximately 2"- 6". Select the to-be-learned button on the remote, then press the corresponding button on the Nº390S to fire the appropri- ate IR code.

Most learning remotes need to be held fairly still while they learn new IR commands; movement can garble the received IR. If you are uncertain as to how to prepare your remote control for learning new commands, refer to the instructions provided with the remote control.

3.Repeat the process of “teaching” new commands to the various buttons on your remote control until all appropriate or desired front panel commands have been learned by your remote.

4.When finished, exit the Teach IR mode by allowing the Nº390S to “time out.”

You may wish to teach your remote control some of the Nº390S’s special commands (those for which there is no corresponding front panel button); in this case, you should go directly to the next section. Otherwise, simply avoid pressing any buttons for about ten seconds, and the Nº390S will automatically return to normal operation.

At some point, however, you should test all your newly “learned” commands to ensure that they were “learned” correctly.

As mentioned above, the Nº390S has the capability to teach learning remote controls special commands for which there are no front panel counterparts. These commands can be especially helpful in solving problems in certain kinds of custom installations.
