REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS
The AVR 154 remote is capable of controlling up to 11 devices, including the AVR itself and a device connected to the Auxiliary Input. 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.
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, except the HDMI selectors, 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® devices and DVRs, and the Harman Kardon DMC 1000 digital media center.
Video 2: Controls cable and satellite television
Video 3: Controls televisions and other video displays.
HDMI 1, 2 and 3: Each code set controls a source device (VCR/PVR/DVD player or cable/satellite
AUX: Controls a device connected to the Auxiliary Input.
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 televi- sion 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 Main Power Switch on the AVR 154’s front panel must first have been switched on.
Mute Button: Press this button to mute the AVR 154’s speaker and headphone 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 154 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.
AM/FM Button: Press this button to select the tuner as the source, or to switch between the AM and FM bands.
Test Tone: Press this button to activate the test tone for manual
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 turns off the receiver after a programmed period of time of up to 90 minutes.
Volume Controls: Press these buttons to raise or lower the volume, which will be shown in decibels (dB) in the Message Display.
DSP Surround: Press this button to select a DSP surround mode (Hall 1, Hall 2, Theater).
Channel Level: Press this button to adjust the output levels for each channel so that all speakers sound equally loud at the listening position. Usually this is done while playing an audio selection, such as a favorite CD, after you have configured the speakers, as described in the Initial Setup section.
Speaker Setup: Press this button to configure speaker sizes, that is, the
Navigation (⁄/¤/‹ / ›) and OK Buttons: These buttons are used to make selections within the
Digital Input Select: Press this button to select the specific digital audio input (or analog audio input) you used for the current source.
Delay: Press this button to set delay times that compensate for placing the speakers at different distances from the listening position, or to resolve a “lip sync” issue that may be caused by digital video processing. This may also be done using the
Numeric Keys: Use these buttons to enter radio station frequencies or to select station presets. Press the Direct Button before entering the station frequency.
