Accessory Devices Will Not Respond When Macro Buttons Are Pressed (continued)

The TV Remote Control Will Not Work Accessory-Device Functions

Remedy

ITR/REC—a VCR tape must be inserted and rewound in the VCR player, and the VCR must be in standby mode. The macro may not work for an accessory device that is not turned ON by the POWER/STBY button on the device’s remote control.

For the PERSONAL macro button to work, you must program the macro steps. See “Programming Your Personal Macro” on page 17.

Ensure that the source inputs (CVI, AV2, AV3, for example) to which you’ve connected accessory devices match with the sources you chose in the onscreen menu during setup.

You may need to delete a device that is not responding and set it up with M-Linkagain. See the sections “Deleting Accessory Devices from the M-LinkSystem” (page 15) and “Setting up a New or Multibrand Accessory Device” (page 10). When you have M-Linklearn an accessory-device function, remember to ensure that the button you are pressing on the accesso- ry device’s remote control matches the highlighted function in the M-LinkLEARN menu.

Ensure that you have had M-Linkat least learn the remote functions that are necessary for the basic operation of each new or multibrand device (POWER/STBY, PLAY, and STOP, for example).

Ensure that the functions you want to use have been learned by M-Link. These could be functions such as FF/FORWARD, REW/REVERSE, PAUSE, EJECT, SCAN NEXT, SCAN PREV., or others, depending on the device.
