•You don't need to program the receiver to switch to the input function selected in step 2, or to switch on or off. This is done automatically.

With Pioneer components, you don’t need to:

•program the power to switch off in a shutdown sequence;

•program the power to switch on if it’s the source component selected in step 2;

•program a Pioneer TV or monitor to switch on if the input function (selected in step 2) has video input terminals;

These take priority in multi operations (not shutdown).

5If necessary, add a delay between operations by pressing ‘Delay’.

Some components may take a few seconds to switch on or off, or perform certain operations. In these cases, you may want to add a slight delay (up to sixty seconds is possible) between commands.

Use the + and – buttons on the Delay Time screen to adjust the delay time then press OK.
