Controlling the rest of your system

09

Similar to Multi operations, System off allows you to use two buttons to stop and switch off a series of components in your system at the same time.1 Only one System off operation sequence may be programmed.

Press MULTI OPERATION and then  SOURCE to:

1.Transmit a sequence of up to five programmed commands.

2.Switch off all Pioneer devices including the receiver (except DVD recorders and VCRs).

For greater convenience, program this receiver to

perform power on/off and playback operations on non- Pioneer devices as well.2 (The signals for Pioneer devices described above are not contingent on programming for non-Pioneer devices.)

The buttons that can be programmed using Multi

operation or System off are the same buttons as those that can be programmed for other remote controls (see Programming signals from other remote controls on page 67).

Programming a Multi operation or a shutdown sequence

1Press and hold R.SETUP, then press “3” for three seconds.

The LED flashes continuously.

To cancel the preset setup mode press R.SETUP.

2Press the input function button (or SOURCE button).

For Multi operations, press the input function you wish to program (for example, if you want to start the sequence by switching on your DVD player, press DVD)3.

For System off, press the  SOURCE button.

The LED blinks twice and flashes continuously.

3If necessary, press the input function button for the component whose command you want to input.

This is only necessary if the command is for a new component (input function).

4Select the button for the command you want to input.

The LED blinks once and flashes continuously.

You don’t need to program the receiver to switch on or off. This is done automatically.

With Pioneer components, you don’t need to program the power to switch off in a shutdown sequence (except DVD recorders).

5Repeat steps 3 to 4 to program a sequence of up to five commands.

If you press R.SETUP before programming is completed, commands programmed up to that point will be stored.

6Press R.SETUP to exit the programming mode.

Using multi operations

1Press MULTI OPERATION. The LED flashes continuously.

2Within five seconds, press an input function button that has been set up with a multi operation. The receiver switches on (if it was in standby) and the programmed multi operation is performed automatically.

Using System off

1Press MULTI OPERATION. The LED flashes continuously.

2Within five seconds, press SOURCE.

The command sequence you programmed will run, then all Pioneer components will switch off4, followed by this receiver (switch of all the zones becomes off).

Erasing the settings for the multi-operation

This erases all the settings programmed in the remote control for the multi-operation.

1Press and hold R.SETUP, then press “8” for three seconds.

The LED flashes continuously.

To cancel the preset setup mode press R.SETUP.

2Press the input function button containing the program you want to cancel or the SOURCE button for three seconds.

If the LED lights for one second, the erasing has been successfully completed.

Note

1• Before Multi operation and System off will work correctly, you must setup the remote to work with your TV and other components (see Operating multiple receivers on page 66 for more on this).

Some units may take some time to power up, in which case multiple operations may not be possible.

Power on and off commands only work with components that have a standby mode.

2Some remote controllers for other manufacturers' devices use the same signals for switching the power on and off. In some cases, even if this receiver is programmed to perform these commands, power to the non-Pioneer devices may not be switched on and off correctly. Program the receiver to perform these commands if the non-Pioneer device uses separate signals for power on/off.

3With Multi operation, the HDMI and TV CTRL settings cannot be made. For other settable input functions, see Setting the remote to control other components on page 66.

4In order to avoid accidently switching off a DVD recorder that is currently recording, no DVD recorder power off codes are sent.
