Copy a key between Device Modes

It is possible to copy functions between Device Modes. However, remember that button functions are Device Mode specific and therefore effectively ‘punch-through’ to the original Device Mode when copied over.

The following example copies the AVR500/AVR600/ AV888 Direct function from the CR102 AMP device mode to the shifted function of the #button on AV Device Mode.

1.Press and hold Suntil the power LED blinks twice:

**.

2.Press 994.

3.Press the Device Mode key of the function you want to move (e.g. A).

4.Press the function key you want to move (e.g.)/

DIRECT)

5.Press the key of the Device Mode you want to copy the function to (e.g. a)

6.Press the Sbutton graphic

7.Press the key you want to copy the function to (e.g.

#)

If you prefer to copy the key to the main function of the

#button instead of the ‘shifted’ function, omit point 6 in the above example.

Mode Mover

If your home entertainment setup contains devices of the same type (e.g. two TVs, perhaps from different manufacturers) you can still control both those devices with the CR102. You simply need to reassign an unused Device Mode key.

NOTE

Before using Mode Mover, make sure both the source and destination Device Mode keys are unlocked (see next section).

Example: To use the zkey to control a second TV

1.Press and hold Suntil the power LED blinks twice:

**.

3.Press 992.

3.Press the Device Mode key for the type of device you want to control (e.g. for a TV, press a).

4.Press the Device Mode key you want to use (e.g. z).

5.Don’t forget to set up the CR102 to control the second device, using one of the methods on page 25.

Note that volume punch-through is not applied to a Device Mode that has been copied using Mode Mover. However, volume punch-through functionality can be restored when you have used Mode Mover, by copying -, +and @from the AMP Device Mode to the same physical buttons on the new moved Device Mode using the last example shown in Key Mover.

To restore a moved Device Mode key to its original state

1.Press and hold Suntil the power LED blinks twice:

**.

2.Press 992.

3.Press the Device Mode key you want to restore twice.

Locking/Unlocking a specific Device Mode

When you first unpack your CR102 and insert the batteries, for your convenience it is able to control certain Arcam components automatically (e.g. DVD players, Amplifiers, Tuners and CD Players). We achieve this by preprogramming specific Arcam device codes onto the relevant Device Mode keys, then locking

the Device Modes so you don’t reprogram them inadvertently.

If you want to override these locked default settings – to control a third-party DVD player, for example – you will first need to unlock DVD Mode before setting up the CR102 using one of the methods described at the start of this guide.

Here are the factory default settings:

Alternative codes are available for multi-room solutions, or in the case of code clashes with other manufacturer’s products.

For example:

 

DVD (system code 12)

1655

AMP (system code 19)

1954

You will need to change the system code on the product you wish to control, as well as the CR102.

NOTE

The AMP Device Mode can only be used to control Arcam amplifiers like the AVR500, AVR600 and AV888, either on its default or alternative IR system codes.

To toggle a Device Mode lock setting:

1.Press the Device Mode key you want to unlock (e.g. d)

2.Press and hold Suntil the power LED blinks twice:

**.

3.Press 982.

<The power LED blinks twice when being locked, and blinks four times when being unlocked.

<If you enter an invalid key sequence, the power LED gives one long blink and returns to normal operation.

While the Device Mode key is locked, the Direct Code Setup and Move Mode functions are not available.
