Programming the Remote

Macro Programming

Macros enable you to easily repeat frequently used combinations of commands with the press of a single button on the AVR 3000’s remote con- trol. Once programmed, a macro will send out up to 19 different remote codes in a pre-deter- mined sequential order enabling you to automate the process of turning on your system, changing devices, or other common tasks. The AVR’s remote can store up to five separate macro command sequences, one that is associated with the Power On button 0, and four more that are accessed by pressing the Macro buttons K.

1. Press the Mute button and the Macro button Kto be programmed or the Power-Onbutton 0at the same time. Note that the lat- est selected Input Selector will light red, and the Program Indicator 2will flash amber.

2.Enter the steps for the macro sequence by pressing the button for the actual command step. Although the macro may contain up to 19 steps, each button press, including those used to change devices, counts as a step. The Program Indicator 2will flash green to confirm each button press as you enter commands.

NOTE: While entering commands for Power On of any device during a macro sequence, press the

Mute button . DO NOT press the actual Power ON button.

Remember to press the appropriate Input Selector button 4before functions are changed to another device. This is also needed for the AVR Selector button 5itself, as long as it’s not lit red and AVR functions shall be pro- grammed.

3.When all the steps have been entered, press the Sleep button 8to enter the commands. The red light under the Input Selector 45 will blink and then turn off.
