Using remote controller

Overview

The RC-511M remote controller is a useful tool that can not only operate the TX-NR900/900E, but also all the other components of your home theater as well. To operate any component, first press the Mode button on the remote controller that corresponds to the component that you wish to control. Then simply press the desired operation button and the component will operate accordingly.

To operate a satellite tuner, cable, VCR, or television with the remote controller, first program the signal to the button.

There are two methods. One method is selecting the name of a different brand from the table, entering the setting number listed, and calling up the pre-programming code (see page 70). The other method is sending the commands from the other brand’s remote control directly into this remote controller (see page 74).
