USING THE HTR 2 REMOTE CONTROL
NOTE: When a macro executes, a 1 second delay is automatically inserted between its commands. If you need more than a 1 second delay between particular commands—for example, to permit a component to power up completely—you can record “empty” steps into the macro by changing Device Selector “pages” without entering actual command functions.
KEY-ILLUMINATION TIMEOUT
The HTR 2’s key-illumination can be set to remain lit for 0-9 seconds. The default value is 2 seconds.
To set the illumination timeout, simultaneously press-and-hold for 3 seconds both the HTR 2’s [DISP] and the [0-9] key, with the digit corresponding to the desired timeout duration; the Learn LED will flash twice to confirm the new setting. When set to zero, the illumination will not turn on at all.
NOTE: Key illumination is the biggest drain on the HTR-2’s batteries. A short key-illumination timeout will extend battery life appreciably; turning it off altogether (set it to 0 seconds) will lengthen it still further.
FACTORY RESET
The HTR-2 can be reset to its factory state, deleting all learned commands, copied and punched-through keys, macros, and other setup information, reverting all keys to their pre-programmed library commands. To perform a factory reset simultaneously press-and-hold for 10 seconds the HTR 2’s [ON] and [RTN] keys; the Learn LED will start to flash green. Release [ON] and [RTN] before the second flash is complete; the Learn LED will turn red, indicate the remote has been reset.
NOTE: You must release [ON] and [RTN] before the second flash goes out, otherwise the unit will not reset; should this occur, repeat the full procedure.
DELETE MODE
The HTR 2 can store learned, copied, and “default library” commands on any single key. (The default library commands are the pre-programmed NAD codes, such as the native T 752 commands on the [AMP] “page.”) You can delete commands by layers back “down” to the default library command on any key, removing learned commands, punched-through functions, and copied keys.
NOTE: The default library commands cannot be deleted, so you need not worry that using Delete Mode might cause irreparable changes.
To enter Delete Mode, simultaneously press-and-hold for 3 seconds both the desired key’s Device Selector key and the [RTN] key, until the Learn LED turns green. Press the function key whose command you wish to delete; the Learn LED flashes; the number of times indicates which type of function has become active— see the table below. Press the active Device Selector key again to exit Delete Mode.
NOTE: You may delete multiple function-key commands on the same Device Selector “page,” but to delete from more than one Device Selector page you must exit Delete Mode and then re-enter it on the required page.

LOADING CODE-LIBRARIES
The HTR 2 can store a different library of default NAD codes for each of its Device Selector “pages.” If the original default library does not control your NAD CD player, tape deck, DVD player, or other component, follow the procedure below to change the code-library.
Begin by ensuring that the component you wish the HTR 2 to control is plugged in and powered-up (“on,” not merely in standby). To enter the HTR 2’s Library Mode, simultaneously press-and-hold for 3 seconds both the desired Device Selector key and the [A/V PRESET] key, until the Learn LED turns green. While keeping the HTR 2 pointed toward the component, enter the first appropriate three-digit code-library number from the table below. If the component turns off, press [ENTER] to accept that code-library number and exit the Library Mode. If the component does not turn off, enter the next three-digit code-library number from the table. When you enter the correct number the component will turn off; press [ENTER] to accept that code- library number and exit the Library Mode.
