PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE

Erasing Macro Commands

To remove the commands that have been pro- grammed into one of the Macro buttons, follow these steps:

1.Press the Mute Button 43 and the Macro Button 30 that contains the commands you wish to erase.

2.The Program/SPL Indicator cwill flash amber, and the LED under the AVR Selector f will turn red.

3.Within ten seconds, press the Surround Mode Selector/Channel Down Button k.

4.The red LED under the AVR Selector fwill go out, and the Program/SPL Indicator c will turn green and flash three times before it goes out.

5.When the Program/SPL Indicator cgoes out, the Macro has been erased.

Volume Punch-Through

The RCP 2 may be programmed to operate the Volume Control 39 and Mute 43 functions of either the TV or the AVR in conjunction with any of the devices controlled by the remote. For example, since the AVR will likely be used as the sound system for TV viewing, you may wish to have the AVR’s volume acti- vated, although the remote is set to run the TV. Either the AVR or TV volume control may be associated with any of the RCP 2’s devices. The factory default is to have the AVR’s volume controls active for all devices except CD and TAPE. To program the remote for Volume Punch-Through, follow these steps:

1.Press the Input Selector efor the unit you wish

to have associated with the volume control and the

Mute Button 43 at the same time until the red light appears under the Input Selector e; the Program/SPL Indicator cwill flash amber.

2.Press the Volume Up Button 39 ; the Program/ SPL Indicator cwill stop flashing and stay amber.

3.Press either the AVR Selector for the Input Selector e, depending on which system’s volume control you wish to have attached for the punch-through mode. The Program/SPL Indicator cwill blink green three times and then go out to confirm the data entry.

Example: To have the AVR’s volume control acti- vated even though the RCP 2 is set to control the

TV, first press the VID 3/TV Input Selector e and the Mute Button 43 at the same time. Next, press the Volume Up Button 39 , followed by the AVR Selector f.

NOTE: Should you wish to return the RCP 2 to the original configuration after entering a Volume Punch- Through, you will need to repeat the steps shown above. However, press the same Input Selector in Steps 1 and 3.

Channel Control Punch-Through

The RCP 2 may be programmed to operate so that the channel control function for either the TV, cable or satel- lite receiver used in your system may be used in con- junction with one of the other devices controlled by the remote. For example, while using and controlling the VCR, you may wish to change channels on a cable box or satellite receiver without having to change the device selected by the AVR or the RCP 2. To program the remote for Channel Control Punch-Through, follow these steps:

1.Press the Input Selector Button efor the device you wish to have the channel control associated with

and the Mute Button 43 at the same time until the red light appears under the Input Selector e and the Program/SPL Indicator cflashes amber.

2.Press the Volume Down Button 39 . The Program/SPL Indicator cwill stop flashing and stay amber.

3.Press and release the Input Selector Button e for the device that will be used to change the chan- nels. The Program/SPL Indicator cwill blink green three times and then go out to confirm the data entry.

Example: To control the channels using your cable box or satellite receiver while the RCP 2 is set to

control the VCR, first press the VID 1/VCR Input

Selector Button eand the Mute Button 43 at the same time. Next, release them and press the Volume Down Button 39 , followed by the VID 3/TV Input Selector Button e.

NOTE: To remove the Channel Control Punch-Through and return the RCP 2 to its original configuration, repeat the steps shown in the example above. However, press the VID 1/VCR Input Selector ein Steps 1 and 3.

Transport Control Punch-Through

The RCP 2 may be programmed to operate so that the Transport Control Functions `(Play, Stop, Fast Forward, Rewind, Pause and Record) for a VCR, DVD or CD will operate in conjunction with one of the other devices controlled by the RCP 2. For example, while using and controlling the TV, you may wish to start or stop your VCR or DVD without having to change the device selected by the AVR or the RCP 2. The factory default is to have the DVD’s transport controls active for

all devices except CD and TAPE. To program the remote for Transport Control Punch-Through, follow these steps:

1.Press the Input Selector efor the device you

wish to have the channel control associated with and

the Mute Button 43 at the same time until the red light appears under the Input Selector eand the Program/SPL Indicator cflashes amber.

2.Press the Play Button `. The Program/SPL Indicator cwill stop flashing and stay amber.

3.Press and release the Input Selector Button e for the device that will be used to change the chan- nels. The Program/SPL Indicator cwill blink green three times and then go out to confirm the data entry.

Example: To control the transport of the DVD while the RCP 2 is set to control the TV, first press the

VID 3/TV Input Selector Button eand the

Mute Button 42 at the same time. Next, release them and press the Play Button `, followed by the DVD Input Selector Button e.

NOTES:

To remove the Channel Control Punch-Through and return the RCP 2 to its original configuration, repeat the steps in the example above. However, press the VID 3/TV Input Selector ein Steps 1 and 3.

Before programming the RCP 2 for Volume, Channel or Transport Punch-Through, make certain that any programming needed for the specific TV, CD, DVD, cable or satellite receivers has been completed.

Reassigning Device Control Selectors

Although each Input Selector eis normally assigned to the category of product shown on the RCP 2, it is possible to reassign one of these buttons to operate a second device of another type. For example, if you have two VCRs but no satellite receiver, you may program the “SAT” button to operate a second VCR. Before following the normal programming steps for either Three-Digit entry or Auto Search code entry, you must first reassign the button with the following steps:

1. Press the Input Selector eyou wish to reassign and the Mute Button 43 at the same time until the red light appears under the Input Selector e and the Program/SPL Indicator cflashes amber.

2.Press the Input Selector e for the device you wish to program into the reassigned button.

3.Enter the three-digit code for the specific model you wish the reassigned button to operate.

4.Press the same Input Selector epressed in Step 1 once again to store the selection. The red
