2-8. REMOTE CONTROL “LEARNING” FUNCTION

The remote control unit, in addition to controlling the most commonly used functions of the main unit and other connected Yamaha audio and video equipment, has a sophisticated “learning” function that allows it to control other equipment in your system or other household appliances equipped with infrared remote control receivers. By setting the YPC/USER/LEARN switch on the remote control unit to “LEARN”, all keys will turn into “learnable function keys”, each capable of “learning” a different remote control function. Also, each key can learn two different functions by switching the learning group (1 or 2) with the 1/2 switch. However, as for the keys shaded in the following figure, the PARAMETER/SET MENU switch will select the learning group number (1 or 2) instead of the 1/2 switch.
