Registering Audio and VideoComponents
You must register the IR code of your audio/video
component to control your component using the on-
screen display.

IR code registration is unnecessary in the

following case

If your audio/video component is a Sony product that
can be controlled by an infrared remote, and it is
connected to the jacks shown in the following table,
you do not need to register the IR code.
Receiver jacks Component to be connected
VIDEO 1 Sony VTR 3 (VHS)
VIDEO 2 Sony VTR 1 (BETA)
VIDEO 3 Sony VTR 2 (8 mm)
LD/DVD Sony LD player
TV/DBS Sony DBS receiver (USA, Canada and
Australia only)
DAT/MD Sony DAT deck
CD Sony CD player (CD 1)
TAPE Sony Tape deck
MONITOR Sony TV (via its VIDEO 1 jack)
The following cases require registration of Sony products
• When connecting a Sony MD deck to the DAT/MD
jacks.
• When connecting a Sony audio product with
CONTROL-A1 compatibility.
• When connecting a Sony product to jacks other than
those specified in the previous table (e.g., when
connecting a Sony LD player to the VIDEO 3 jacks).
• When exchanging a non-Sony audio or video
component with a Sony product.
Notes
• If your VCR has a COMMAND CODE selector switch (for
VTR1, VTR2, or VTR3), set the switch to the applicable
setting. If your VCR has a built-in StarSight tuner, you
must set the COMMAND CODE selector switch to VTR 3.
• If your CD changer has a COMMAND MODE selector
switch (for CD 1, CD 2, or CD 3), normally it should be set
to “CD 1.” However, if your CD changer has VIDEO OUT
terminals, set the command mode to “CD 2” or “CD 3”
(“CD 3” should be used only when making CONTROL-A1
connections).
