Customizing your RC9500

1.

Introduction

It is best to proceed with customizing in several stages.

The first stage is to teach all your existing remote codes to the RC9500. The second stage is to practice using your home theater system with the RC9500. As you gain familiarity with your system, you’ll notice that many operations in a home theater require several steps. In the third stage of customization, you will record multiple step operations as either a “Macro” that you can play back with one button push or as a list of numbered steps recorded in a “Help List” device.

In the next few pages you’ll find step by step guidelines on each of the three stages. If a more detailed explanation exists in the Reference section, the page number is indicated..
