Notes on System Control

Operations

•If the remote control detectors of the components are too far apart, or if something is blocking them, some of the components may not operate consecutively even after you press the SYSTEM CONTROL button or a Label key.

•If some of the components did not operate correctly because of the above or for any other reason, always set all the components back to the states they were in before you pressed the SYSTEM CONTROL button or a Label key. Failure to do this can result in incorrect operation when you press the SYSTEM CONTROL button or a Label key again.

•Some components may not always be powered on by the System Control function. This is because the power of the component goes on and off alternatively when receiving the power on/off signal. In this case, check the operating component’s power on/off state before using the system control function.
