IMPORTANT NOTE: The AVR 347’s remote may be programmed to control up to seven devices, including the AVR. Before using the remote, it is important to remember to press the Input Selector button 4 that corresponds to the unit you wish to operate. In addition, the AVR’s remote is shipped from the factory to operate the AVR and most Harman Kardon CD or DVD players and cassette decks. The remote is also capable of operating a wide variety of other products using the control codes that are part of the remote. Before using the remote with other products, follow the instructions on pages 53-55 to program the proper codes for the products in your system.
It is also important to remember that many of the buttons on the remote take on different functions, depending on the product selected using the Input Selector Button 4. The descriptions shown here primarily detail the functions of the remote when it is used to operate the AVR. (See page 58-59 for information about alternate functions for the remote’s buttons.)
0Power Off Button: Press this button to place the AVR or a selected device unit in the Standby mode.
1IR Transmitter Window: Point this window towards the AVR when pressing buttons on the remote to make certain that infrared commands are properly received.
2Program Indicator: This three-color indicator is used to guide you through the process of programming the remote. (See page 53 for information on programming the remote.)
3Power On Button: Press this button to turn on the power to a device selected by pressing one of the Input Selectors 4 (except Tape).
4Input Selectors: Pressing one of these buttons will perform three actions at the same time. First, if the AVR is not turned on, this will power up the unit. Next, it will select the source shown on the button as the input to the AVR. Finally, it will change the remote control so that it controls the device selected.
The buttons labeled DVD, TAPE and HDMI 1 are each used to select either of two input sources:
•The first press of the DVD Button selects the component connected to the DVD inputs.
A second press of this button selects the component connected to the CD inputs.
•The first press of the button labeled TAPE selects Tape as the input. A second press of this button selects the The Bridge as an input.
•The first press of the HDMI 1 button selects the device that is connected to the HDMI 1 jack. A second press selects the device connected to the HDMI 2 jack.
After pressing one of these buttons you must press the AVR Selector button 5 again to operate the AVR’s functions with the remote.
5AVR Selector: Pressing this button will switch the remote so that it will operate the AVR’s functions. If the AVR is in the Standby mode, it will also turn the AVR on.
6AM/FM Tuner Select: Press this button to select the AVR’s tuner as the listening choice. Pressing this button when the tuner is in use will select between the AM and FM bands.
76-Channel/8 Channel Direct Input: Press this button to select the device connected to the 6-Channel Direct Inputs or the
8-Channel Direct Inputs (the input available will depend on the selection 5.1 or 6.1/7.1 made in the surround mode setting, see page 40 for more information).
8Test Tone: Press this button to begin the sequence used to calibrate the AVR’s output levels. (See page 35 for more information on calibrating the AVR).
9Sleep Button: Press this button to place the unit in the Sleep mode. After the time shown in the display, the AVR will automatically go into the Standby mode. Each press of the button changes the time until turn-off in the following order:
Hold the button pressed for two seconds to turn off the Sleep mode setting.
Note that this button is also used to change channels on your TV, VCR and Sat receiver when the appropriate source is selected, using the device Input Selectors 4.
ASurround Mode Selector: Press this but- ton to select any of the HALL, THEATER surround modes. Note that depending on the type of input, some modes are not always available. (See page 37-38 for more information about surround modes.) Note that this button is also used to tune channels on your TV, VCR and Sat receiver when the appropriate source is selected using the device Input Selector 4.
BNight Mode: Press this button to activate the Night mode. This mode is available only with Dolby Digital encoded sources, and it preserves dialog (center channel) intelligibilty at low volume levels (See page 27 for more information).
CChannel Select Button: This button is used to start the process of setting the AVR’s output levels with an external source. Once this button is pressed, use the ⁄/¤ buttons D to select the channel being adjusted, then press the Set button F, followed by the ⁄/¤ buttons D again, to change the level setting.
(See page 46 for more information.)
D ⁄/¤ Buttons: These multipurpose but- tons are used to change or scroll through items in the on-screen menus or on the front panel or to make configuration settings such as digital inputs or delay timing. When changing a setting, first press the button for the function or setting to be changed (e.g., press the Digital Select Button G to change a digital input) and then press one of these buttons to scroll through the list of options or to increase or decrease a set- ting. The sections in this manual describing the individual features and functions contain specific informa-tion on using these buttons for each application.
When the AVR remote is being programmed for the codes of another device, these buttons are also used in the “Auto Search” process (See page 53 for more information on programming the remote.)
