Using the Remote
Programming the remote
You can customize the remote to match th e
components connected to your receiver. You
can even program the remote to control non-
Sony components and also Sony components
that the remote is normally unable to control.
The procedure below uses as an example a
case in which a VCR made by a company
other than Sony is connected to the VIDEO 1
IN jacks on the receiver.
Before you begin, note that:
–You cannot change the settings of TUNER
and DMPORT.
–The remote can control only components
that accept infrared wireless control signals.
Be sure to turn on the receiver and
point the remote towards the
receiver when performing the
following procedure.
1Press and hold RM SET UP,
then press AV ?/1.
The RM SET UP indicator slowly flashes.
2Press the input button
(including TV) for the
component you want to control.
For example, if you are going to control a
VCR connected to VIDEO 1 IN, press
VIDEO 1.
The RM SET UP and SHIFT indicator
light up.
If you press the button for a component of
which you cannot program the remote,
such as DMPORT, etc. , the RM SET UP
indicator keeps flashi ng.
3Press numeric buttons to enter
the numeric code (or one of the
codes if more than one code
exists) corresponding to the
component and the maker of
the component you want to
control.
See the tables on page 118–121 for
information on the numeric code(s).
Note
For a TV remote code value, only nu mbers in
the 500’s are valid.
4Press ENT/MEM.
Once the numeric code has been verified,
the RM SET UP indicator slowly flashes
twice and the remote automa tically exits
the programming mode.
5Repeat steps 1 to 4 to control
other components.
Notes
•The indicator turns off while a valid button is
pressed.
•In step 2, if you press TUNER, you can only
program the button to control a tuner (page 118).
•In step 2, if you want to change to other input, press
SHIFT and then press the new input button you
want.
•For the numeric codes, only the last three numbers
entered are valid.
