PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE
•When a button is pressed on the AVR 230 remote, the red light under the Input Selector ef for the product being operated should flash briefly. If the Device Control Selector flashes for some but not all buttons for a particular product, it does NOT indicate a problem with the remote but rather that no function is programmed for the button being pushed.
Volume Punch-Through
The AVR 230’s remote may be programmed to oper- ate the Volume Control 38 and Mute 42 func- tions of either the TV or the AVR 230 in conjunction with any of the devices controlled by the remote. For example, since the AVR 230 will likely be used as the sound system for TV viewing, you may wish to have the AVR 230’s volume activated, although the remote is set to run the TV. Either the AVR 230 or TV volume control may be associated with any of the remote’s devices. To program the remote for Volume Punch- Through, follow these steps:
1.Press the Input Selector e for the unit you wish to have associated with the volume control and the
Mute Button 42 at the same time until the red light appears under the Input Selector e; the Program/SPL Indicator c will flash amber.
2.Press the Volume Up Button 38 ; the Program/ SPL Indicator c will stop flashing and stay amber.
3.Press either the AVR Selector f or the Input Selector e, depending on which system’s volume control you wish to have attached for the
Example: To have the AVR 230’s volume control activated even though the remote is set to control the TV, first press the Video/TV Input Selector e and the Mute Button 42 at the same time. Next, press the Volume Up Button 38 , followed by the AVR Selector f.
NOTE: Should you wish to return the remote to the original configuration after entering a Volume Punch- Through, you will need to repeat the steps shown above. However, press the same Input Selector in Steps 1 and 3.
Channel Control Punch-Through
The AVR 230’s remote may be programmed to operate so that the channel control function for either the TV, cable or satellite receiver used in your system may be used in conjunction with one of the other devices con- trolled by the remote. For example, while using and con- trolling the VCR, you may wish to change channels on a cable box or satellite receiver without having to change
the device selected by the AVR 230 or the remote. To program the remote for Channel Control Punch- Through, follow these steps:
1.Press the Input Selector Button ef for the device you wish to have the channel control associ- ated with and the Mute Button 42 at the same time until the red light appears under the Input Selector ef and the Program/SPL Indicator c flashes amber.
2.Press the Volume Down Button 38 . The Program/SPL Indicator c will stop flashing and stay amber.
3.Press and release the Input Selector Button e for the device that will be used to change the chan- nels. The Program/SPL Indicator c will blink green three times and then go out to confirm the data entry.
Example: To control the channels using your cable box or satellite receiver while the remote is set to control the VCR, first press the VID 1/VCR Input Selector Button e and the Mute Button 42 at the same time. Next, release them and press the Volume Down Button 38 , followed by the VID 2/ TV Input Selector Button e.
NOTE: To remove the Channel Control
Transport Control Punch-Through
The AVR 230’s remote may be programmed to operate so that the Transport Control Functions ` (Play, Stop, Fast Forward, Rewind, Pause and Record) for a VCR, DVD or CD will operate in conjunction with one of the other devices controlled by the remote. For exam- ple, while using and controlling the TV, you may wish to start or stop your VCR or DVD without having to change the device selected by the AVR 230 or the remote. To program the remote for Transport Control Punch- Through, follow these steps:
1.Press the Input Selector ef for the device you wish to have the channel control associated with and the Mute Button 42 at the same time until the red light appears under the Input Selector e and the Program/SPL Indicator c flashes amber.
2.Press the Play Button `. The Program/SPL Indicator c will stop flashing and stay amber.
3.Press and release the Input Selector Button e for the device that will be used to change the chan- nels. The Program/SPL Indicator c will blink
green three times and then go out to confirm the data entry.
Example: To control the transport of a DVD player while the remote is set to control the TV, first press the VID 2/TV Input Selector Button e and the Mute Button 42 at the same time. Next, release them and press the Play Button `, followed by the DVD Input Selector Button e.
NOTES:
•To remove the Channel Control
•Before programming the remote for Volume, Channel or Transport
•The AVR 230 remote is preprogrammed at the factory so that the Transport Control Functions
` operate the DVD player whenever the AVR device is selected.
Reassigning Device Control Selectors
The Input Selectors e are normally programmed to operate the product category shown on the remote above the button, but they may also be reassigned to operate a second device of another type. The excep- tion is the Video 3 Input Selector e (labeled “CBL/SAT”) which may be programmed to operate any device in the remote’s library.
To program the remote so that the codes from one product category are reassigned to a button where those codes are not normally associated (such as programming the Video 2 button, whose default is for the TV codes, to operate a second VCR or a personal video recorder), follow these steps:
1.Press the Input Selector e you wish to reassign and the Mute Button 42 at the same time until the red light appears under the Input Selector e and the Program/ SPL Indicator c flashes amber.
2.Press the Input Selector e for the device you wish to program into the reassigned button.
3.Enter the
4.Press the same Input Selector e pressed in Step 1 once again to store the selection. The red LED under the reassigned Input Selector will flash three times and then go out.
