26 LEARNING CODES FROM A REMOTE
Learning Codes from a Remote
Learning Codes from a Remote
The HS 500 remote is able to “learn” codes from
other remote controls that might be part of your
system setup, like the one from your TV. To learn
or transfer codes from an IR remote to the AVR’s
remote, follow these steps:
1. Place the front of the original remote with the
code being sent so that it is facing the IR
Transmitter Window
d
on the HS remote
“head-to-head.”The remotes should be between
2 and 4cm apart.
2. Select the button on the remote that you wish
to use as the device selector for the codes about
to be entered.This must be any of the Input
Selectors
0
.
3. Press the Input Selector
0
button chosen
and the Learn Button
X
at the same time.
Hold these buttons until the Program
Indicator
e
flashes amber and the light
under the device selector button turns red.
Release the buttons. It is important that you
begin the next step within 20 seconds.
4. Press the button on the HS remote that you
wish to program. Note that the Program
Indicator
e
will stop flashing.
Important Note: Codes cannot be taught to
all buttons on the remote. In these cases the
Program Indicator
e
keeps flashing after
the button was released.
5.As long as the Program Indicator
e
is on
steadily (for five seconds), press and hold the
button on the original remote that you wish to
“teach” into the HS remote. If you pressed the
button too late or no command was received
within five seconds, the Program Indicator
e
will flash red three times and then amber,
then simply repeat step four.When the
Program Indicator
e
turns green, release
the button on the original remote. Note that the
Program Indicator will then begin to flash amber
again.
NOTE: If the Program Indicator
e
turns red
steadily during Step 5, the programming was not
successful. Repeat the steps to see if the code
will “take.”If the indicator keeps flashing red in
step 5, this code cannot be taught.
6. Repeat steps 4 though 5 for each button on
the source remote that you wish to transfer to
the HS remote.
7. Once all codes have been transferred from the
original source remote to the HS remote, press
the Learn button
X
.This will turn off all LEDs
and turn off the learning mode.
8. Repeat Steps 1 through 7 for any additional
remotes you wish to “teach” into the HS
Remote.
Erasing Learned Codes
The HS’s remote allows you to remove or erase
the code learned into a single button for a single
device, to remove or erase all the codes that have
been learned for a single device, or to erase all
commands that have been learned to all devices.
To erase a single learned code from within a
single device’s settings, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold both the Input Selector
0
within which the individual button to be erased
has been programmed and the Learn button
X
.
2.When the red LED under the Input Selector
turns red and the Program Indicator
e
flashes amber, release the buttons.
3. Press and release the Input Selector
0
again for the device within which the individual
button to be erased has been programmed.
4. Press the 7 button
S
three times.
5. Press and release the individual button for
which the code is to be erased.The Program
Indicator
e
will blink green two times and
then return to amber.
6.To erase other buttons within the same device,
press them as noted in Step 5.
7.When all buttons to be erased have been
pressed, press the Learn button
X
to complete
the process.
To erase all codes within a single device, follow
these steps:
1. Press and hold both the Input Selector
0
for which you wish to erase the codes and the
Learn button
X
.
2.When the red LED under the Input Selector
turns red and the Program Indicator
e
flashes amber, release the buttons.
Macro Programming
Macros enable you to easily repeat frequently
used combinations of commands with the press
of a single button on the HS’s remote control.
Once programmed, a macro will send out up to
19 different remote codes in a pre-determined
sequential order enabling you to automate the
process of turning on your system, changing
devices, or other common tasks. The HS’s remote
can store up to four separate macro command
sequences, that are accessed by pressing the
Macro buttons
K
.
1.To start programming a macro, press the Mute
button
A
and the Macro button
K
to be
programmed at the same time. Note that the lat-
est selected Input Selector will light red, and
the Program Indicator
e
will flash amber.
2. Enter the steps for the macro sequence by
pressing the button for the actual command
step.Although the macro may contain up to 19
steps, each button press, including those used to
change devices, counts as a step.
The Program Indicator
e
will flash green
twice to confirm each button press as you enter
commands.
NOTE: While entering commands for Power On
of any device during a macro sequence, press the
Mute button
A
. DO NOT press the Power ON
button
0
.
• Remember to press the appropriate Input
Selector button
0
before functions are
changed to another device.
3. When all the steps have been entered, press
the
MNKL
button
9
to enter the com-
mands. The red light under the Input Selector
0
will blink and then turn off and the
Program Indicator
e
will flash green twice
to confirm the macro to be programmed.
Example: To program the Macro 1
K
button
so that it turns on the HS 500 and your TV, follow
these steps:
• Press the Macro 1 button
K
and Mute
A
buttons at the same time and then release them.
• Note that the Program Indicator will flash
amber.
• Press the TV Selector
0
.
• Press the Mute
A
button to store the HS’s
power on command.
• Press the Screen Power On button
Y
but-
ton to store the TV Power On Command.
• Press the
MNKL
/Channel Up button
9
to complete the process and store the macro
sequence.
After following these steps, each time you press
the Macro 1 button
K
, the remote will send
all Power On commands.
Erasing Macro Commands
To remove the commands that have been pro-
grammed into one of the Macro buttons, follow
these steps:
1. Press the Mute button
A
and the Macro
button
K
that contains the commands you
wish to erase.
2. Note that the Program Indicator
e
will
flash amber, and the red LED under the Input
Selector
0
last used will turn on.
3.Within ten seconds, press the Mute button

e
will turn
green and flash three times before it goes out.
5.When the Program Indicator
e
goes out,
the Macro has been erased.
