Notes

If you have already programmed the Áor ¤button of each component any signals by “learning”, the procedure above will not change the function of the Áand ¤buttons.

If you have programmed volume control signals on Áor ¤buttons of TV or AMP by the “learning” function (page 12), you can only use that signal when you select TV or AMP. For other component, the preset volume control signals for TV or AMP (depending on the above setting procedure) will be transmitted. To use the new signals, you need to program each button for each component by the learning procedure (page 12).

Executing a Series of Commands

— System Control Function

With the System Control function, you can program a series of operating commands, and execute them by pressing just one button.

For example, when you watch a video, a series of operations like the ones below are necessary.

Example:

1Power on the TV.

2Power on the video (VCR 1).

3Power on the amplifier.

4Set the imput selector of the amplifier to VIDEO 1.

5Set the input mode of the TV to

VIDEO.

6Start video playback.

You can program up to 16 consecutive operation steps to each of the SYSTEM CONTROL 1, 2 or 3. At the factory, SYSTEM CONTROL 1 and 2 are not programmed yet, but a series of Power- on Commands for Sony Components is programmed on the SYSTEM CONTROL 3 button.
