Remote Control Functions

vClear/Macro 4 Button: This button may be used to store and recall a macro; it may also be programmed for use with other devices. (See page 28 for nore information on macros.)

wPreset Up/Down: When the tuner is in use, these buttons scroll through the stations that have been programmed into the AVR 500’s memory. When some source devices, such as CD players, VCRs and cassette decks, are selected using the Device Control Selectors bc, these buttons will normally function as chapter step or track advance.

xTuning Up/Down: When the tuner is in use, these buttons will tune up or down through the selected frequency band. If the Tuner Mode button ohas been pressed so that the AUTO indicator Ris illuminated, pressing and holding the buttons for three seconds will cause the tuner to seek the next station with acceptable signal strength for quality reception. When the AUTO indicator Ris NOT illuminated, pressing these buttons will tune stations in single-step increments. (See page 24 for more information.)

yForward/Reverse Transport Buttons: These buttons do not have any functions for the AVR, but they may be programmed for the forward/reverse play operation of a wide variety of CD or DVD players, and audio or video- cassette recorders. (See page 27 for more information on programming the remote.)

zNight Mode: Press this button to activate the Night mode. This mode is available in spe- cially encoded digital sources, and it preserves dialog (center channel) intelligibilty at low volume levels.

`Multiroom: Press this button to activate the Multiroom system or to begin the process of changing the input or volume level for the second zone. (See page 26 for more information on the Multiroom system.)

●28 Delay/Prev Ch.: Press this button to begin the process for setting the delay times used by the AVR 500 when processing surround sound. After pressing this button, the delay times are entered by pressing the Set button

iand then using the Ú/ Û buttons g to change the setting. Press the Set button again to complete the process. (See page 18–19 for more information.)

●29 Ý Button: Press this button to change a setting or selection when configuring many of the AVR’s settings.

●30 Speaker Select: Press this button to begin the process of configuring the AVR 500’s Bass Management System for use with the type of speakers used in your system. Once the button has been pressed, use the Ú/ Û buttons gto select the channel you wish to set up. Press the Set button iand then select another channel to configure. When all adjustments have been completed, press the Set button twice to exit the settings and return to normal operation. (See page 16 for more information.)

●31 Surround Mode Selector: Press this button to begin the process of changing the surround mode. After the button has been pressed, use the Ú/ Û buttons g to select the desired surround mode. (See page 21 for more information.) Note that this button is also used to tune channels when the TV is selected using the Device Control

Selector b. When the AVR 500 remote is being programmed for the codes of another device, this button is also used in the “Auto Search” process. (See page 27 for more infor- mation on programming the remote.)

●32 Volume Up/Down: Press these buttons to raise or lower the system volume.

●33 Sleep Button: Press this button to place the unit in the Sleep mode. After the time shown in the display, the AVR 500 will auto- matically go into the Standby mode. Each press of the button changes the time until turn-off in the following order:

min

OFF

min

Press and hold the button for two seconds to turn off the Sleep mode setting.

Note that this button is also used to change channels on your TV when the TV is selected using the Device Control Selectors bc.

When the AVR 500 remote is being programmed for the codes of another device, this button is also used in the “Auto Search” process. (See page 27 for more information on programming the remote.)
