Note

•If you see Failed (or OK! doesn’t appear) on the touch panel, or OK! is displayed, but you find that the command wasn't learned, try teaching the command again, but vary the distance (closer or farther) between the remote controls. Some signals may be stronger than others and require more distance (a projector’s remote signal, for example).

•There may be certain remote signals that can’t be programmed correctly.

•The remote control has a limited memory. If you see Memory Full appear in the display, use the PRESET RECALL feature in Recalling preset codes on page 61 to overwrite any programmed buttons that you aren’t using. This will free up memory to program additional remote signals.

• Default setting: All inputs – ON

On the default setting, when you press an input select button (DVD/LD, DVR/VCR1, etc.), both the amplifier input source and the remote control change to the selected function.

When an input select button is set to OFF, pressing that button changes the function of the remote control only. This can be useful when you want to operate one component without interrupting playback of another.
