Using the Remote Control

Volume Punchthrough

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 a component that is connected to the audio/video receiver. An example follows.

Let’s say you’ve connected your HDTV tuner to your audio/video receiver. You’ve also programmed your HDTV Monitor remote control to operate your HDTV tuner. Since the HDTV tuner 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 HDTV tuner.

The Volume Punchthrough Feature eliminates the need for you to use two remote controls and saves a button press when you’re using the HDTV Monitor remote to adjust the volume. In effect, you are telling the HDTV Monitor remote to retrieve and send volume commands from the A/V receiver whenever the HDTV Monitor remote is operating the HDTV tuner (in AUX/HD mode).

Therefore, after you’ve successfully set up the Volume Punchthrough Feature, whenever the HDTV Monitor remote is in AUX/HD mode (press the AUX/HD 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.

IMPORTANT: First, you must program the AUDIO button on the TV’s remote control to operate your audio receiver or amplifier. Go to page 24 for instructions. If you can’t program this remote to operate your audio receiver, Volume Punchthrough won’t work.

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

1.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/HD).

2.Press and hold the VOL- button. Keep pressing VOL- while you press and release the component button you chose in step 1 (TV, DVD, SAT/CAB, VCR or AUX/HD).

3.Then press and release the AUDIO button since the sound will be coming from the audio/ video receiver. Release the VOL- button.

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

5.Turn on the component that is connected to the audio/video receiver or amplifier (an HDTV tuner, for example).

6.Put the TV’s remote in AUX/HD mode by pressing the AUX/HD button, and tune to a channel.

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