Changing the Transmission Code
Most Ayre components use the Philips RC-5 transmission code for communication with the remote handset. However, the C-5xeMPUniversal Stereo Disc Player and the Ayre DVD players use a Pioneer manufacturing kit and therefore use the Pioneer transmission code. The Ayre DX-5 Universal A/V Engine uses an Oppo manufacturing kit and the Oppo transmission code.
The Ayre Multi-Component Backlit Remote Control can easily be configured to transmit any of these three codes. To operate the C-5xeMPor the Ayre DVD players, simply press the “5” button five times in rapid succession. To operate the CX-7eMP, simply press the “7” button five times in rapid succession. To operate the DX-5, simply press the “8” button five times in rapid succession.
To check which transmission system the remote handset is currently configured for, simply press the “0” button five times in rapid succession. The backlight will flash five times to indicate it is configured for the C-5xeMP, seven times to indicate it is configured for the CX-7eMP, and eight times to indicate it is configured for the DX-5.
