System Remote Control Functions, continued

In addition to controlling the AVR, the AVR remote is capable of controlling nine other devices, including an iPod/iPhone device docked in a The Bridge IIIP docking station connected to the AVR. During the installation process, you may program the codes for each of your source components into the remote. (See Program the Remote to Control Your Source Devices and TV, on page 16, for programming information.) To operate a component, press its Source Selector button to change the remote’s control mode.

A button’s function depends on which component is being controlled. See Table A10 in the Appendix for listings of the functions for each type of component. Most of the buttons on the remote have dedicated functions, although the precise codes transmitted vary depending on the specific device being controlled. Due to the wide variety of functions for various source devices, we have included only a few of the most often-used functions on the remote: alphanumeric keys, transport controls, television-channel control, menu access and power on and off. To return the remote to the AVR control mode at any time, press the AVR button.

IR Transmitter lens: As buttons are pressed on the remote, infrared codes are emitted through this lens.

Program Indicator LED: This LED lights up to indicate various procedures when the remote is in the Programming mode.

Power On/Off buttons: Press these buttons to turn the AVR or the device being controlled on and off. The Main Power switch on the AVR’s rear panel must be on for this button to turn the AVR on and off.

Mute button: Press this button to mute the AVR’s speaker-output connectors and Headphone jack. To restore the sound, press this button or adjust the volume.

AVR button: Press this button to switch the remote’s control mode to operate the AVR.

Source Selector buttons: Press one of these buttons to select a source device, e.g., DVD, AM/FM radio, etc. This action will also turn on the AVR and switch the remote’s control mode to operate the selected source device. NOTE: The first press of the Radio Source Selector button switches the AVR to the last-used tuner band (AM or FM). Each successive press changes the band.

Test Tone button: Press this button to activate the test tone for calibrating channel volume levels by ear.

Sleep button/Channel Up/Down buttons: Press the Sleep button to activate the sleep timer, which turns off the AVR after a programmed period of time of up to 90 minutes. The Channel Up/Down buttons have no effect on the AVR but are used to change channels on TVs and some video sources.

Volume Up/Down buttons: Press these buttons to raise or lower the volume.

OSD button: Press this button to activate the on-screen display menu system.

Channel Level Control button: Press this button to activate the individual channel-level adjustment. It lets you easily change the channel balance to suit different programs or seating arrangements. See Manual Speaker Setup, on page 21, for more information.

Speaker Setup button: Press this button to configure which speakers are included in your system. See Manual Speaker Setup, on page 21, for more information.

OK button: This button is used to select items from the menu system.

Digital Input button: Press this button to select the specific digital audio input (or analog audio input) to which the current source is connected.

Delay button: Pressing this button lets you adjust two different types of delay settings (use the Up/Down buttons to cycle through the settings):

•A/V Sync: This setting lets you resynchronize the audio and video signals from a source to eliminate a “lip sync” problem. Lip-sync issues can occur when the video portion of a signal undergoes additional processing in either the source device or the video display. Use the Left/Right buttons to delay the audio by up to 180ms.

•Front L/Center/Front R/Surr R/Surr L/Subwoofer: These settings let you set the delay for each speaker to compensate for the different distances they may be from the listening position. Use the Up/Down buttons to cycle through each of the system’s speakers, and use the Left/Right buttons to set the distance each speaker is from the listening position. See Manual Speaker Setup, on page 21, for more information.

Left/Right/Up/Down buttons: These buttons are used to navigate the menu system.

Number buttons: Use these buttons to enter numbers for radio-station frequencies or to select station presets.

Tuning Mode button: Press this button to toggle the radio between manual (one frequency step at a time) and automatic (seeks frequencies with acceptable signal strength) tuning mode. It also toggles between stereo and mono modes when an FM station is tuned in.

Memory button: To save the currently tuned radio station as a preset, press this button, then a Number button.

Direct Station Entry button: Press this button before using the Number buttons to enter a radio station frequency.

Clear button: Press this button to clear a radio station frequency you have started to enter.

Tuning Up/Down buttons: Press these buttons to tune a radio station. Depending on whether the tuning mode has been set to manual or automatic, each press will either change one tuning frequency increment at a time or seek the next higher or lower station with acceptable signal strength.

Preset Station Up/Down buttons: Press these buttons to cycle through your preset radio stations.

Tone Control button: Press this button to access the bass and treble controls. Use the OK button to select an adjustment and use the Up/Down buttons to change the settings.

Disc Skip button (AVR 1650): This button is used with some optical disc changers to skip to the next disc.

RDS button (AVR 165): When listening to an FM radio station that broadcasts RDS information, this button activates the various RDS functions.

Night Mode button: Press this button to activate Night mode with specially encoded Dolby Digital discs or broadcasts. Night mode compresses the audio so that louder passages are reduced in volume to avoid disturbing others, while dialogue remains intelligible. Each press of the button advances through the following settings:

•Off: No compression is applied. Loud passages in the program remain as they were recorded.

•Mid: Loud passages in the program are reduced moderately in volume.

•Max: Loud passages in the program are reduced more in volume.

Macro buttons: These buttons may be programmed to execute a series of up to 19 commands with a single button press. They are useful for programming the command to turn on or off all of your components or for accessing specialized functions for a different component from the one that you are currently operating. See Programming Macro Commands, on page 24, for information about programming macros.

Track Skip Up/Down buttons: These buttons have no effect on the AVR but are used with many source components to change tracks or chapters.

Display Dimmer button: Press this button to dim the AVR’s front-panel display partially or fully.

Transport Control buttons: These buttons have no effect on the AVR but are used to control many source components. By default, when the remote is operating the AVR, these buttons will control a Harman Kardon Blu-ray Disc player or DVD player.
