Resetting the Remote Memory
As you add components to your home-theater
system, occasionally you may wish to totally
reprogram the remote control without the
confusion of any commands, macros or ”Punch-
Through“ programming that you may have done.
To do this, it is possible to reset the remote to the
original factory defaults and command codes by
following these steps. Note, however, that once
the remote is reset, all commands or codes that
you have entered will be erased and will need to
be re-entered:
1. Press any of the Input Selector buttons
4
and the ”O“ button
H
at the same time until
the Program Indicator
2
begins to flash
amber.
2. Press the ”3“ button
H
three times.
3. The red LED under the Input Selector
4
will go out and the Program Indicator
2
will
stop flashing and turn green.
4. The Program Indicator
2
will remain
green until the remote is reset. Note that this
may take a while, depending on how many
commands are in the memory and need to be
erased.
5. When the Program Indicator
2
goes out,
the remote has been reset to the factory settings.
