remote Fkeys
The remote control supplied with the CP-500 has four function keys (Fkeys)
that allow you to have instant, easy access to specific system functions that might
otherwise be buried in a menu somewhere.
For example, if you use the balance control frequently, you may want to consider
programming one of the Fkeys to take you straight to that screen. Doing so will
save you having to access the control menu, followed by pressing the balance
button (which might be hard to see from across the room).
The remote Fkey menu has four buttons, one each for the four Fkeys on your
remote control. Pressing any of these buttons on the LCD touchscreen takes you
to a subordinate, scrolling list of possible functions for that particular Fkey
.
Selecting the one you want is as simple as scrolling through the list (by touching
either the up or down arrows on the right), and then touching the specific
function in the list that you want that Fkey to perform.
cautionary note on Fkey use Note that all Classé remote controls provide these same four Fkeys, so that you
need not worry about which remote you happen to pick up. Thus
F1 on the
preamplifier’s remote control sends the same infrared signal as
F1 on the CD
player’s remote control.
While this is intended to minimize confusion amongst different remotes (since
this aspect of them will all perform identically), you should take care when
assigning different functions on different components to the same Fkey. Doing
so would result in two components doing two different things at once, in
response to a single press of a button on the remote control. This can sometimes
be useful. As an example, F1 could set the preamplifier to the CD input, and
also set the CD player to Play, both from the press of a single Fkey
.
