Controlling the rest of your system

Setting the remote to control other components

Most components can be assigned to one of the input source buttons (such as DVD/LD or CD) using the component’s manufacturer preset code stored in the remote.

However, there are cases where only certain functions may be controllable after assigning the proper preset code, or the codes for the manufacturer in the remote control will not work for the model that you are using.

If you can’t find a preset code that matches the component you want to control, you can still teach the remote individual commands from another remote control (see Programming signals from other remote controls below).

Note

•You can cancel or exit any of the steps by pressing RECEIVER. To go back a step, press RETURN.

•After one minute of inactivity, the remote automatically exits the operation.

4 Use to select the first letter of the brand name of your component then press ENTER.

This should be the manufacturer’s name (for example, P for Pioneer).

5

Use

to select the manufacturer’s name from

the list then press ENTER.

6

Use

to select the proper code from the list,

then try using this remote with your component.

The code should start with the component type (for example, DVD 020). If there is more than one, start with

the first one.2

To try out the remote control, switch the component on or off (into standby) by pressing SOURCE . If it doesn’t seem to work, select the next code from the list (if there is one).

•If you can’t find or properly enter a preset code, you can still teach the remote individual commands from another remote control (see Programming signals from other remote controls below).

7If your component is controlled successfully, press ENTER to confirm.

The remote LCD display shows OK.
