Controlling External Components

In addition to controlling this unit, you can operate your TV, VCR, CD recorder or MD recorder with the CinemaStation remote control by selecting the appropriate remote control code (refer to “LIST OF REMOTE CONTROL CODES” at the end of this manual).

Note

Depending on the product, the CinemaStation remote control may not be able to operate the external component. In this case, use the remote control supplied with the product.

Setting remote control codes

The TV button selects a remote control code for a TV. The VCR button selects a remote control code for a VCR, CD recorder, or MD recorder.

1While holding down SHIFT, press TV or VCR, then while still holding down SHIFT, press the number buttons to enter the three-digit remote control code (refer to “LIST OF REMOTE CONTROL CODES” at the end of this manual) for the manufacturer of your component.

If the setting is successful, the message “Code Set OK” appears in the CinemaStation display.

If the setting fails, the message “Code Set NG” appears. In this case, perform this step again.

The factory settings are “299” (YAMAHA TV) for TV and “399” (YAMAHA VCR) for VCR.

2Refer to “Available operations” (page 73) and try one of the button operations for your component to check that the setting is working properly.

If the button operation does not work properly, the remote control code may be incorrect. In this case, perform step 1 again.

Notes

Even if you set a remote control code, it will be cleared about two minutes after the remote control batteries run out. In this case, store remote control codes again after replacing the batteries. (Be careful not to press the remote control buttons while replacing the batteries. Doing so may clear the settings.)

Depending on the product, the CinemaStation remote control may not be able to operate the external component. In this case, use the remote control supplied with the product.

If the manufacturer of your component has more than one code, try each of them until you find the correct one.
