12 REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS
Remote Control Functions
IMPORTANT NOTE: The AVR 120’s remote
may be programmed to control up to eight
devices, including the AVR 120. Before using the
remote, it is important to remember to press the
Input Selector Button e that corresponds
to the unit you wish to operate. In addition, the
AVR 120’s remote is shipped from the factory to
operate the AVR 120 and most Harman Kardon
CD or DVD players and cassette decks. The
remote is also capable of operating a wide vari-
ety of other products using the control codes
that are part of the remote. Before using the
remote with other products, follow the instruc-
tions on pages 27–30 to program the proper
codes for the products in your system.
It is also important to remember that many of
the buttons on the remote take on different
functions, depending on the product selected
using the Device Control Selectors. The descrip-
tions shown here primarily detail the functions
of the remote when it is used to operate the
AVR 120. (See pages 31–32 for information
about alternate functions for the remote’s but-
tons.)
a Power Off Button: Pressing this button
turns off (places in the Standby mode) the device
that was last selected by pressing one of the
Input Selectors e. To place the AVR 120 in
the Standby mode, first press the
AVR Selector
Button
f and then press this button.
b IR Transmitter Window: Point this win-
dow towards the AVR 120 when pressing buttons
on the remote to make certain that infrared com-
mands are properly received.
c Program Indicator: This three-color indi-
cator is used to guide you through the process
of programming the remote. (See pages 27–30
for information on programming the remote.)
d Power On Button: Press this button
to turn on power to the device that was last
selected by pressing one of the
Input Selectors
e.To turn on the AVR 120, press the AVR
Selector Button
f.
e Input Selectors: Pressing one of these
buttons will perform three actions at the same
time. First, if the AVR 120 is not turned on, this
will power up the unit. Next, it will select the
source shown on the button as the input to the
AVR 120. Finally, it will change the remote con-
trol so that it controls the device selected. After
pressing one of these buttons you must press
the
AVR Selector Button f again to oper-
ate the AVR 120’s functions with the remote.
f AVR Selector: Pressing this button will
switch the remote so that it will operate the
AVR 120’s functions. If the AVR 120 is in the
Standby mode, it will also turn the AVR 120 on.
g AM/FM Tuner Select: Press this button to
select the AVR 120’s tuner as the listening
choice. Pressing this button when the tuner is
already in use will switch between the AM and
FM bands.
h Test Button: Press this button to begin
the sequence used to calibrate the AVR 120’s
output levels. (See pages 18–19 for more infor-
mation on calibrating the AVR 120.)
i Sleep Button: Press this button to place
the unit in the Sleep mode. After the time
shown in the display, the AVR 120 will auto-
matically go into the Standby mode. Each press
of the button changes the time until turn-off in
the following order:
Note that this button is also used to change
channels on your TV when the TV is selected.
This button is also used to end the process of
creating a macro command. (See page 28 for
more information on creating macros.)
jSurround Mode Selector: Press this but-
ton to begin the process of changing the sur-
round mode. After the button has been pressed,
use the
⁄
/
¤
Buttons mq to select the
desired surround mode. (See page 22 for more
information.) Note that this button is also used
to tune channels when the TV is selected using
the device
Input Selector e. This button is
also used in part of the process of erase stored
macro commands. (See page 28 for more infor-
mation on macros.)
NOTE: The Sleep Button i and Surround
Mode Selector
j may also function as the
Channel + and – keys when the remote is pro-
grammed for use with TVs, cable boxes, VCRs,
satellite receivers or other video devices with
tuners. See page 29 for information on pro-
gramming the remote for Channel Control
Punch-Through capability so that you may
change channels on a separate device when
the remote is in AVR mode.
k Night Mode: Press this button to activate
the Night mode. This mode is available in spe-
cially encoded digital sources, and it preserves
dialog (center channel) intelligibility at low
volume levels.
l Channel Select Button:This button is
used to start the process of setting the AVR 120’s
output levels to an external source. Once this but-
ton is pressed, use the
⁄

¤
Buttons mq
to select the channel being adjusted, then press
the
Set Button o, followed by the

Button: This multipurpose button is
used to change or scroll through items in the
menus, or to change configuration settings such
as output levels. When changing an item such as
the surround mode or digital input directly, first
press the function or mode to be changed (e.g.,
press the
Surround Mode Selector j to
select a surround mode or the
Digital Select
Button
p to change the digital input) and
then press this button to scroll through the list of
available choices.
n
‹
Button: This button is used to change
the menu selection or setting during some of
the setup procedures for the AVR 120.
o Set Button:This button is used to enter
settings into the AVR 120’s memory. It is also
used in the setup procedures for delay time,
speaker configuration and channel output level
adjustment.
p Digital Select: Press this button to assign
one of the digital inputs
de#$ to a
source. (See page 23 for more information on
using digital inputs.)
