name that appears as the factory default when the button is pressed. However, with the Rename Key function it is possible to rename almost any button on the remote so that when the button is pressed you will see a more descriptive or appropriate name displayed.

rename the Tone Control Button , which is nor- mally not used when DVD is selected so that it reads ZOOM in the remote’s display.

a.If the button to be renamed already has a pre- programmed, or previously renamed title in the remote’s memory, you will see that name on the top line of the LCD display, and a blinking block cursor will appear on the far left side
