Yamaha RX-V2400 Using the macro feature

REMOTE CONTROL FEATURES

Using the macro feature

The Macro feature makes it possible to perform a series of operations by pressing just one button. For example, when you want to play a CD, normally you would turn on the components, select the CD input, and press the play button to start playback. The Macro feature lets you perform all those operations by simply pressing the CD macro button. The buttons listed as macro buttons below are factory set with macro programs. You can also program your own macros (see

page 64).

OPERATION	ADVANCED

*1 You can turn on some components (including YAMAHA components) connected to this unit by connecting them to the AC OUTLET(S) on the rear panel. (Power control may not be synchronized with this unit depending on the component. For details, please refer to the operation instruction for the connected component.)

*2 Playback can be started with any YAMAHA remote control-compatible MD recorder, CD player, CD recorder, DVD player, or LD player. When using macros to operate other components, you will need to program the PLAY button on the control area of that component (see pages 61 and 62) or to set up a manufacturer code (see page 60).

*3 When TUNER is selected as the input source, this unit receives the last station received before the unit was set to the standby mode.
