Chapter 11:

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.

The remote LCD display shows OK.
