Command Buttons 2
This large group of buttons duplicates the functions on the remote controls for your audio/video components. A general description of these functions follows. Detailed information on the specific function of each button can be found in the CONTROL COMMANDS tables at the back of this manual.
At the top of this group of buttons are basic controls such as Power, Volume, Channel Selection, etc.
Below these is a group of buttons that duplicate the transport functions on a tape recorder or VCR (Stop, Play, Pause, etc.) as well as the Up and Down commands that might be found on a cable or satellite TV receiver.
The next group of buttons duplicates the numeric keypad buttons such as might be used for direct track selection on a CD Player or direct channel selection on a TV set. Included in this section are special command buttons providing functions found on various components.
At the bottom of this group of buttons are ten round source selection buttons labelled CD, TUNER, TAPE, etc. These duplicate the source input selection buttons on a receiver, preamplifier, or surround sound processor. The function of these buttons is not the same as the DEVICE buttons at the top of the remote control. The DEVICE but- tons determine which command set is active on the
To operate the RR-939:
Step One: Press a DEVICE button to activate the com- mands for the desired component. This command set will remain active until you press a different DEVICE button.
Step Two: Press COMMAND buttons to operate the com- ponent you have selected.
Remember that the COMMAND buttons duplicate many controls on many different types of audio/video compo- nents and their function may vary depending on the type of component selected. For example, the PLAY/SELECT button engages the play mode on a CD Player, but it dupli- cates the SELECT function on a cable TV converter.
Note: The
The COMMAND buttons are labelled, often with multiple labels if the button serves different purposes for different kinds of components. As long as you remember that pressing a DEVICE button turns the
A few buttons have a second function, activated by pressing and releasing the SHIFT button before pressing the COMMAND button, as described below.
Macro Buttons 3
A macro is a series of individual commands triggered by pressing one button. Macros make operating a complex home entertainment system much easier. For example, think of playing a videotape: You turn on the TV, turn on the VCR, select the TV input connected to the VCR, and, finally, put the VCR into Play mode. That’s four separate commands — and it may take you as many as six pushes on various buttons to execute them. A macro makes this simpler by executing all the needed commands with just one push of a button.
There are five MACRO buttons on the
