IR PROGRAMMING

PROGRAMMING SOURCE DEVICE IR COMMAND CODES

The procedure for storing IR command codes in VS-6/Library 2 is the same as storing IR command codes in the source device memory pages, with one difference: the command codes for Power On and Power Off are eliminated. The fi rst command code to be learned will be Play.

NOTE: IF ANY RECEIVED IR COMMAND CANNOT BE CORRECTLY PROCESSED, OR IS CORRUPT FOR ANY REASON, [IR INVALID] WILL APPEAR ON THE DISPLAY

BUILDING IR SEQUENCES FOR SOURCE DEVICES

Sequences issue a specifi c set of IR commands when a source is selected. Some uses for sequences might be:

•A specifi c disc is played when the CD is selected.

•The tuner always tunes to a certain preset when it is selected.

•Selecting the DVD can turn on the TV and close the draperies.

NOTE: IF A SELECTED SOURCE IS ALREADY PLAYING IN ANOTHER ZONE, OR THE SOURCE IS IN AN OFF-DELAY, THE SEQUENCE WILL NOT BE ISSUED. WHEN A SOURCE IS TURNED OFF IN A ZONE AND IS NOT PLAYING IN ANY OTHER ZONE, IT IS NOT TURNED OFF UNTIL AFTER A DELAY OF SEVERAL MINUTES.

TO BUILD A SEQUENCE FOR A SOURCE DEVICE

1.Press each Function button on the Niles R-8L remote that corresponds to each command of the start-up sequence for the Tuner, in the order the commands will occur.

NOTE: PRESS THE APPROPRIATE SOURCE BUTTON BEFORE PRESSING THE FUNCTION BUTTON TO SPECIFY WHICH DEVICE COMMANDS ARE USED.

2.To add a function from Library1 or the VS-6 Library, press the respective Library button prior to pressing each function button.

3.The “Enter IR” LED will blink as each command is received, and the display number will increment up to indicate the current step number. Sequences may have up to 64 steps.

5.Press Program at any time to move to the next memory page. Sequences are built for each source in order, and then the menu returns to the IR learning page for source 3.

6.Repeat these steps for each source that is to have a start-up command sequence.

IR PROGRAM EDITING AND ERASING

EDITING OR ERASING INDIVIDUAL IR COMMANDS.

1.While in programming mode, press Program until the desired source device memory page is displayed.
