The AVR 147 remote is capable of controlling up to ten devices, including the AVR itself and an iPod docked in the optional The Bridge accessory. During the installation process, you may program the codes for each of your source components into the remote. Each time you wish to use the codes for any component, first press the Selector button for that component. This changes the button functions to the appropriate codes for that product.
NOTE: Several of the Input Selectors are shared between two devices. The selector button will light in red when the remote is in the device mode printed on the button, and it will light in green for the device mode printed above the button. To switch between the two device modes, press the selector twice quickly in succession. The selector will remain in the last-selected mode until the next time you press the selector twice quickly.
For example, the first time you press the DVD button, the button will light up in red, indicating that the remote is in DVD mode. If you press another selector, such as the VID3 selector, and then press the DVD button again, the DVD button will remain red, indicating the remote is still in DVD mode. Now press the DVD button twice quickly. At the first press the button will light red, indicating that the remote is in DVD mode. On the second press the button will turn green, indicating that the remote is now in CD mode. If you press a different selector and return to the DVD/CD Selector, you will observe that the remote is still in CD mode.
Each Input Selector has been preprogrammed to control certain types of components, with only the codes specific to each brand and model changing, depending on which product code is programmed. The device types programmed into each selector may not be changed.
DVD: Controls DVD players and recorders.
CD: Controls CD players and recorders.
Tape: Controls cassette decks.
Video 1: Controls VCRs, TiVo and DVRs.
Video 2: Controls cable and satellite television set-top boxes.
Video 3: Controls televisions and other video displays.
The Bridge/DMP: Controls an iPod docked in The Bridge.
HDMI 1 and 2: Each code set controls a source device (VCR/PVR, DVD player or cable/satellite set-top box) connected to one of these two inputs.
XM: Controls the AVR functions for XM Satellite Radio.
For example, if you have inserted a disc in your CD player and you would like to skip ahead three tracks, but you then find that the volume is too loud, you would follow this procedure:
1.Press the CD Input Selector to switch to the codes that control your CD player.
2.Press the Play Button (in the Transport Controls section) if the disc is not already playing.
3.Press the Skip Up Button three times to advance three tracks.
4.Press the AVR Button so that you can access the Volume Controls.
5.Press the Volume Down Button until the volume level is satisfactory.
Any given button may have different functions, depending on which component is being controlled. Some buttons are labeled with these functions. For example, the Sleep and DSP Surround Buttons are labeled for use as Channel Up/Down Buttons when controlling a television or cable box. See Table A8 in the appendix for listings of the different functions for each type of component.
IR Transmitter Lens: As buttons are pressed on the remote, infrared codes are emitted through this lens. Make sure it is pointing toward the component being operated.
Power On Button: Press this button to turn on the AVR or another device. The Master Power Switch on the AVR 147’s front panel must first have been switched on.
Mute Button: Press this button to mute the AVR 147’s speaker and headphones outputs temporarily. To end the muting, press this button or adjust the volume. Muting is also canceled when the receiver is turned off.
Program Indicator: This LED lights up or flashes in one of three colors as the remote is programmed with codes.
Power Off Button: Press this button to turn off the AVR 147 or another device.
AVR Selector: Press this button to switch the remote to the codes that operate the receiver.
Input Selectors: Press one of these buttons to select a source device, which is a component where a playback signal originates, e.g., DVD, CD, cable TV, satellite or HDTV tuner. This will also turn on the receiver and switch the remote’s mode to operate the source device.
XM Radio Button: Press this button to select XM Satellite Radio as the source. You will need to have purchased and activated an XM antenna module, and you will also need to subscribe to the XM Radio service. Visit www.xmradio.com for more information.
AM/FM Button: Press this button to select the tuner as the source, or to switch between the AM and FM bands, or XM Radio.
6-Channel Input Selector: Press this button to select the
6-Channel Inputs as the audio source. The receiver will use the video input and remote control codes for the last-selected video source.
Test Tone: Press this button to activate the test tone for manual output-level calibration.
TV/Video: This button has no effect on the receiver, but is used to switch video inputs on some video source components.
Sleep Button: Press this button to activate the sleep timer, which shuts off the receiver after a programmed period of time of up to 90 minutes.
