Instructions for use

Punch-Through Sound

Punch-through sound enables you to control the audio level of your first or second TV, regardless of what device mode the remote control is in.

EXAMPLE:

You have installed a second TV under SAT mode. You can control that TV’s volume when you are in VCR mode. This feature is installed as a default setting for a first TV.

To install this feature for a second TV:

1 Press the mode selector key to select VCR.

2 Press and hold keys 1 and 6 simultaneously -for about 3 seconds - until the green LED lights up.

English

Once you have programmed the functions of a device in one of the categories, it is not possible to program another device in the same category. There is, however, a solution in case you want to program two devices in the same category

(2 TV’s, VCR’s, etc.). The following example explains how.

EXAMPLE:

The SAT mode on this remote control is factory preset to control many Philips satellite receivers. You can change the SAT mode (or any mode) to operate another type of device. The following example shows you how to use the SAT mode to operate a second TV:
