Controlling the Volume of Visual Components Connected to an Audio System

The Commander is factory preset based on the assumption that you hear the sound of your visual components from your TV speakers, and that you hear the sound of your audio components from the loudspeakers connected to your amplifier.

The following table shows the factory setting of which volume would be controlled for each component.

This feature enables you to control the volume of your TV or amplifier without having to select TV or AMP each time you want to control the volume.

For example, to control the volume while using a VCR, you don’t need to press the TV button to control the TV volume.

Notes

If you have programmed any signal on the Áor ¤buttons by learning (page 12) for certain components, that signal will be transmitted instead of controlling the volume of TV or amplifier when you select that component.

When the Áor ¤buttons of TV or AMP have “learned” any signal, that signal will be transmitted only when you select TV or AMP. When you select other components, the original signals preset for TV or AMP will be transmitted.

To change the Factory Preset of the Volume Control

However, if your visual components are connected to an audio system, you probably hear TV or VCR sound from the loudspeakers via your amplifier, not from your TV speakers. In this case, you need to change the factory preset so that you can control the volume of your visual components without first having to switch to the amplifier.
