The CR102 universal remote controller

The CR102 is a sophisticated ‘universal’ backlit remote control that can control up to eight devices. It is pre- programmed for use with the AVR500, AVR600, AV888 and many other Arcam products (FM/DAB tuners, CD players and DVD players).

With its extensive built-in library of codes, it can also be used with thousands of third party audio-visual components – TVs, satellite and set-top boxes, PVRs, CD players, etc. See the list of codes at the back of this handbook, beginning on page 60.

The CR102 is a ‘learning’ remote, so you can teach it almost any function from an old single-device remote. You can also program the CR102 to issue a sequence of commands (‘macros’) from a single button press.

Using the remote control

Please keep in mind the following when using the remote control:

<Ensure there are no obstacles between the remote control and the remote sensor on the front panel. The remote has a range of about 7 metres. (If the remote sensor is obscured, the Z1 IR remote control input jack on the rear panel is available. Please consult your dealer for further information.)

<Remote operation may become unreliable if strong sunlight or fluorescent light is shining on the remote sensor of the unit.

<Replace the batteries when you notice a reduction in the operating range of the remote control.

Inserting batteries into the remote control

1.Open the battery compartment by pressing the button on the back of the handset.

2.Insert four ‘AAA’ batteries into the battery compartment – two facing the top of the unit, and two facing the end, as in the diagram.

3.Lower the end cap onto the plastic locating plate in the handset. This acts as a hinge, and you can now push the end cap firmly into its locked position with a click.

Notes on batteries:

<Incorrect use of batteries can result in hazards such as leakage and bursting.

<Do not mix old and new batteries together.

<Do not use non-identical batteries together – although they may look similar, different batteries may have different voltages.

<Ensure the plus (+) and minus (-) ends of each battery match the indications in the battery compartment.

<Remove batteries from equipment that is not going to be used for a month or more.

<When disposing of used batteries, please comply with governmental or local regulations that apply in your country or area.
