So that each remote control operates only its own recorder, make this setting different for each recorder and remote in the room.

There are three different recorder IDs. When set to Recorder2 or Recorder3, the remote control mode is shown in the front panel display.

After selecting a new recorder ID, you have to confirm the

change by selecting Yes or No (use the (cursor left/right) buttons), then pressing ENTER.

Note that as soon as you change the recorder ID, the remote becomes inoperative until you change the remote to the same ID.

To set the remote, press and hold RETURN and a number button (1, 2 or 3) until the indicator on the remote lights.
