Adjusting the Commander’s Operating Environment

Operation

pSetting the AUTO POWER function

ON: When a video function (DVD, etc.) is selected, the commander sends numerous codes to the appropriate Sony AV components. You can select the preset input for the TV (VIDEO1 ~ VIDEO4) so that the TV switches to the input after it has been turned on. You can also set the lag time (1 ~ 9 seconds)* for the input to switch.

Example) When you select DVD, the following occurs.

1The receiver switches to DVD player operation mode.

2The TV turns on.

3The DVD player turns on.

4The TV automatically selects the preset input. OFF: When a function is selected, the commander code

applies only to receiver operation.

*Some TVs cannot receive remote control codes immediately after being turned on. In this case, set the lag time according to your TV.

pSetting the initial communication

(COMMUNICATION)

Set whether the initial communication (page 6) between the commander and the receiver starts after the commander is turned on.

ON: When the commander is turned on, the initial communication starts. Once the initial communication is carried out, the setting automatically switches to OFF.

OFF: When the commander is turned on, the initial communication does not start. We recommend setting to OFF when the commander is away from the receiver.

Note on initial communication

When you change the initial communication setting from OFF to ON, be sure to leave the commander until it turns off automatically. When you turn on the commander again, the initial communication starts and the commander receives the model information from the receiver (see page 6).

The model information is cleared when the setting is changed from OFF to ON. If the above procedure is not completed, the settings, such as the sound field name, in the commander may differ from those in the receiver.

pSwitching the command mode (COMMAND MODE)

When you switch the command mode of the receiver, be sure to also switch the command mode of the commander. When the command mode is correctly set, the transmission is possible between the commander and the receiver.

COMMAND AV SYSTEM1: Select when the command mode of the receiver is AV1.

COMMAND AV SYSTEM2: Select when the command mode of the receiver is AV2.
