Volume Punchthrough Feature

You may find this feature helpful if you’ve connected your components to an audio/video receiver (A/V receiver) or amplifier, but you want to use the TV’s remote control to operate the volume for the receiver. An example follows:

Let’s say you’ve connected your DVD player to your audio/video receiver. You’ve also programmed your TV remote control to operate your DVD player. Since the DVD player gets its volume through the audio/video receiver, you would have to bounce back and forth between two remote controls: the A/V receiver’s remote to adjust the volume and the TV’s remote control to operate the DVD player.

The Volume Punchthrough feature eliminates the need for you to use two remote controls and saves a button press when you’re using the TV remote to adjust the volume. In effect, you are telling the TV remote to retrieve and send volume commands from the A/V receiver whenever the TV remote is in DVD mode.

Therefore, after you’ve successfully set up the Volume Punchthrough feature, whenever the TV remote is in DVD mode (press the DVD button) and you want to adjust the volume, you only have to press the VOL + or VOL- buttons. Follow the instructions below to set up Volume Punchthrough.

1.IMPORTANT: First, you must program the AUDIO button on the TV’s remote control to operate your audio receiver or amplifier. Go to page 26 for instructions. If you can’t program this remote to operate your audio receiver, Volume Punchthrough won’t work.

2.While setting up Volume Punchthrough, it’s best to point the remote away from components.

3.Decide which mode the remote will be in when the volume from the audio receiver “punches through.” The mode will be one of the component buttons (TV, DVD, SAT/CAB, VCR, or AUX).

4.Press and hold the VOL- button. Keep pressing VOL- while you press and release the component button you chose in step 3 (TV, DVD, SAT/CAB, or AUX).

5.Press and release the AUDIO button since the sound will be coming from the audio/video receiver. Release the VOL- button.

6.Now, test it by turning on your audio receiver or amplifier.

7.Turn on the component that is connected to the audio/video receiver or amplifier (a DVD player, for example).

8.Put the TV’s remote in DVD mode by pressing the DVD button, and play a disc.

9.Press VOL+ or VOL-. The volume from the audio receiver should increase or decrease accordingly.

Deleting ALL Volume Punchthrough Commands

To delete all programmed Volume Punchthrough settings and return the remote control back to the factory defaults, press and hold the VOL- button (the component button of the Volume Punchthrough lights). While holding the VOL- button, enter 000 using the number buttons. All component buttons turn on for 2 seconds and then turn off. The remote returns to the factory settings.

Note: If an invalid button is pressed, all component buttons blink 4 times and turn off. At this point, you must start over.
