Playing Games

To play Games, perform steps 1 and 2 as described in ‘Watching DVD’. Instead of

selecting the DVD as the applicable source, select Games .

Note The activity ‘Playing Games’ mainly serves the purpose of switching your display device to the appropriate input, so that you can view the content of your game console. Once the RC9800i has switched the display device to the appropriate input, to actually play games, you are advised to use the game pad that came with your game console.

Listening to a CD

You just bought a new CD and want to listen to it on the audio system in your bedroom.

Until now, we’ve only addressed living room activities. As you’re now going to use the RC9800i in your bedroom, you must first make the RC9800i aware of this change of room.

Good To Know: Changing the Room

Check the top of the Homepage to see if the room indication matches the current location in which you’re using the RC9800i. If not, change the room.

For example, suppose that the present controlled room is the living room, as displayed on the Homepage:

To change the room controlled by the RC9800i, proceed as follows:

1On the Homepage, choose to access the System Management Area. The ‘System Management Area’ screen will appear.

2Choose Select a Different Room.

The screen with the available rooms will appear.

Current room

Note The list of rooms that is displayed is based on the information that you provided during setup. To add a room, or edit the room name, see ‘Add/Edit Rooms’ on page 44.
