Programming the Remote
The AVR 260 is equipped with a powerful remote control that will control not only the receiver’s functions, but also most popular brands of audio and video equipment, including CD players, TV sets, cable boxes, VCRs, satellite receivers and other
Programming the Remote with Codes
As shipped from the factory, the remote is fully programmed for all AVR functions, as well as those of most Harman Kardon CD changers, DVD players, CD players and
Blu-ray control
HK
Press and hold the DVD Button until it blinks and goes out again. Then enter code 001 for HK
Note that out of the box, when first powered up, the default mode is HK Blu- ray.
Direct Code Entry
This method is the easiest way to program your remote to work with different products.
1.Use the tables in the
TV), and the specific brand name. If there is more than one number for a brand, make note of the different choices.
2.Turn on the unit you wish to program into the AVR remote.
3.Press and hold the Input Selector Cfor the type of product to be entered (e.g., DVD, TV) more than 3 seconds, until it lights up, then release it. It is important that you begin the next step within 20 seconds.
4.If the unit you wish to program into the AVR remote has a remotable Power on/off function, follow these steps:
a)Point the AVR’s remote towards the unit to be programmed, and enter the first
Press the Input Selector Cagain, and note that the red light under the Input Selector will flash three times before going dark to confirm the entry.
b)If the product to be programmed does NOT turn off, continue to enter the
5.If the Power function of the unit to be programmed cannot be remoted, follow these steps (max. 20 seconds after step 3 above, or else step 3 must be repeated first):
a)Enter the first
the unit being programmed starts that function, the correct code has been entered.
b)If the unit does not start the function whose button was pressed, repeat steps 3 and 5a above with the next
6.Try all of the functions on the remote to make certain that the product operates properly. Keep in mind that many manufacturers use a number of different combinations of codes, so it is a good idea to make certain that not only does the Power control work, but that the volume, channel and transport controls work as they should. If functions do not work properly, you may need to use a different remote code.
7.If the unit does not react to any code entered, if the code for your product does not appear in the the
Auto-Search Method
If the unit you wish to include in the AVR’s remote is not listed in the code the
1.Turn on the product that you wish to include in the AVR remote.
2.Press and hold the Input Selector Cfor the type of product to be entered (e.g., DVD, TV) more than 3 seconds, until it lights up, then release it. It is important that you begin the next step within 20 seconds.
3.To find out if the code for your unit is
4.When the K button was not released in time after the unit turned off, the proper code will be ”overrun”. That’s why a function test should be made: Turn the unit on again and, while the Input Selector Cstill lights red, press the K button Fonce, then the L button Fonce too. When the unit turns off, the right code was found, when not, the code was ”overrun”. To
5.Press the Input Selector Cagain, and note that the red light will flash three times before going dark to confirm the entry.
6.Try all of the functions on the remote to make certain that the product operates. Keep in mind that many manufacturers use a number of different combinations of codes, and it is a good idea to make certain that not only the Power control works, but the volume, channel and transport controls, as appropriate. If all functions do not work properly, you may need to
