next to the bracketed readout of the underlying
device (e.g.,
[AVR] POWER ON).

Punch-Through Configuration
P
unch-through is a capability of the remote that
allows the Volume controls, Channel Up/Down buttons
or Transport keys (Play, Stop, Record, Fast Forward
and Reverse, and Skip Up/Down) to link to a different
device. For example, if your TV, cable box or satellite
receiver is connected through the AVR 445, you will
most likely want to use the AVR 445’s volume control
commands even when the remote has been set to
issue all other commands for the video device.
“Punch-through” enables you to easily program the
remote to do this.
Volume Punch-Through
Follow these steps to enable the Volume Up/Down
and Mute controls from one device to be used when
the remote is otherwise programmed for a different
device.
NOTE FOR VOLUME PUNCH-THROUGH: The
remote’s default settings are for the AVR 445’s vol-
ume controls, to be used when any input or device is
selected, with the exception of the VID 2/TV button.
There is no need to program the remote for volume
punch-through for the AVR 445’s controls with other
sources, such as DVD. To have the AVR 445’s volume
commands used when the TV device is selected, fol-
low these steps:

through commands. In our example, that is the
VID 2/TV button, as that is where we want the

6. When the Set button is pressed, the display will
change to show you that the new combination of
control commands is being saved to the unit’s
memory, as shown in Figure 63. The word
SAVED will flash four times and then the
remote will return to normal operation.

Volume Up/Down and Mute buttons of the second
device named will be used when those buttons

are pressed while the master device
is in use.
Returning the Volume Control Settings to
Default Opera
tion
If you wish to remove the Volume punch-through so
that the commands for Volume and Mute are returned
to the factory default setting, follow the steps shown
above, except that in Steps 4 and 5, select the same
device for both the
DEVICE IN USE on the left
side of the bottom line and the
PUNCH-THROUGH
device. In the example used, the display to return the
remote to default settings will appear as shown in
Figure 64.
