player are routed to PROGRAMMED IR PORT 4. This way each CD

player will receive only the commands intended for it.

MODIFYING THE IR LIBRARY

To add new remotes or change commands in the MASTER IR

Library you must first create a USER IR Library. This preserves

a clean copy of the MASTER IR Library and prevents codes from

inadvertently being deleted or improperly edited.

To modify the MASTER IR Library:

1. Open the Sonance Control Manager, open the LIBRARY

menu and select IR LIBRARY MANAGER. The IR LIBRARY MANGER

(

Figure 49

) window will open.

2. Select and left click the USER.CMLfolder in the left-hand window.

3. Open the REMOTE menu and select IMPORT. The IMPORT FROMIR

LIBRARY browser window will open.

4. Navigate to the SONANCE CONTROL MANAGER program folder. (It will be located in the PROGRAMFILES folder in your

computer’s main hard drive — usually the C: drive.) Double-click the folder to open it.

5. Double-click the COMMAND LIBRARIES folder. The MASTER.CMLand USER.CMLlibraries will appear in the window. Select

MASTER.CMLand click OPEN. The entire MASTER IR LIBRARY will be imported into the USER.CMLlibrary. (The process will take

a couple of minutes.)

6. When the process is complete the IMPORT SUCCESSFUL

window will open. This is a list of all the remotes imported

into the USER.CMLfolder. You can scroll-through it for

reference. Click OK when you’re finished.

At this point the IR LIBRARY MANAGER will look like

Figure 50

,

with all BRAND/COMPONENT/REMOTE folders open. To clean-up

the window:

1. Open the FILE menu and select CLOSE. The USER library will close.

2. Open the FILE menu again and select OPEN. Select USER.CML

in the browser window. The library will open, with all

brands listed alphabetically.
