Using Macros

You can program the remote controller’s MACRO but- tons to perform a sequence of remote control actions.

Example:

To play a CD you typically need to perform the follow- ing actions:

1.Press the [RECEIVER] REMOTE MODE button to select the RECEIVER remote controller mode.

2.Press the [ON] button to turn on the AV controller.

3.Press the [CD] INPUT SELECTOR button to select the CD input source.

4.Press the [CD] REMOTE MODE button to select the CD remote controller mode.

5. Press the Play [ ] button to start playback on the CD player.

You can program a MACRO button so that all five actions are performed with just one button press.

2	Press the buttons whose actions
	you want to program into the
	macro in the order you want them
	performed.
	For the CD example in the left column,
	you’d press the following buttons:
	[ON], [CD] INPUT SELECTOR, [CD]
	REMOTE MODE, Play [ ].
3	When you’ve finished, press the
	MACRO button again.
	The Remote indicator flashes twice.
	If you enter eight commands, the pro-
	cess will finish automatically.

Note:

•If any of the buttons you used to make a macro are taught new commands, the macro will no longer work properly and will have to be made again.

Making Macros

Each MACRO button can store one macro, and each macro can contain up to eight commands.
