Useful information

Backlight

A blue backlight comes on for five seconds whenever a key is pressed. This helps you use the handset in subdued lighting conditions. It may be possible to hear a quiet tone being emitted from the remote control when the backlight is on. This is perfectly normal.

Power Led blinks

Short blinks indicate a valid key press.

Multiple short blinks convey information (such as a device code) or signal the beginning and successful completion of a programming sequence.

Long blinks indicate an invalid key press or entry.

The symbol ‘*’ is used in the manual to indicate a power LED blink.

Timeouts and unassigned keys

Time out – After 10 seconds the CR102 exits the programming state and returns to normal operation.

Stuck key timeout – After any key is pressed continuously for 30 seconds, the CR102 stops sending IR transmission to conserve battery life. The CR102 remains off until all keys are released.

Unassigned keys – the CR102 ignores any unassigned key presses for a particular Device Mode and does not transmit IR.

Low voltage indicator

When the batteries are running down, the IR transmit indicator on the CD102 (the LED under the Power button) flashes five times whenever you press a button:

*****

If this happens, please fit four new AAA alkaline batteries as soon as possible.

Device Mode / Source keys

As the CR102 can control your AVR360 as well as a range of other equipment, many of the buttons have more than one function depending on the ‘device mode’ selected on the remote control.

The Device Mode keys (shown below) select the source on the AVR360. If one of these keys is pressed briefly, a command is transmitted to change the source on the AVR360. Also the functionality of the remote control changes to operate the selected source device. it’s like having eight different remotes in your hand!

If you press and hold a Device Mode key for about four seconds, you change the Device Mode of the CR102 without changing the signal source on the AVR360. This can also be done by pressing Sfollowed by a Device Mode key (within two seconds). These two methods allow you to change which device the CR102 controls without also changing the AVR360 source, allowing uninterrupted listening.

Each Device Mode changes the behaviour of many of the CR102 keys to control the source device appropriately. For example:

In CD mode 0 plays the previous CD track.

In AV mode 0 issues the TV ‘channel down’ command.

The CR102 remains in the last selected Device Mode so it is not necessary to press a Device Mode key before every command key if all you are doing is playing or skipping tracks on a CD, for example.

Navigation keys

The Navigation keys steer the cursor in Setup menus or on-screen menus. They also replicate the navigation functions of original remotes supplied with other home entertainment devices in your system.

Oconfirms a setting.

Volume control

By default, the CR102 is set up so that the volume control buttons always control the volume of the AVR360, regardless of which Device Mode the remote is currently set for. This is known as volume ‘punch through’.

For example, if you are listening to a CD, you will probably have the CR102 in CD Device Mode to control the CD player. You can use the volume controls on the remote directly to adjust the volume of the AVR360 without first having to press Ato put the remote into AMP Device Mode. The volume buttons ‘punch through’ the CD Device Mode on the remote to the AMP Device Mode. Volume ‘punch through’ can be disabled individually for any Device Mode if desired.

The CR102 complies with Part 15 of the FCc rules

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide a reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiated radio frequency energy and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

Connect the equipment into an outlet or a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
