Controlling Other Components
You can control your other components, including those
made by other manufacturers, with the remote controller.
This section explains how to:
• Enter the remote control code for a component that
you want to control (e.g., DVD, TV, VCR).
• Learn commands directly from another component’s
remote controller (see page 89).
• Program the MACRO buttons to perform a sequence
of up to eight actions (see page 90).
To control another component, you must first enter the
appropriate remote control code to a REMOTE MODE
button. You’ll need to enter a code for each component
that you want to control.
Notes:
• Remote control codes cannot be entered for the
[RECEIVER] and [HDD] REMOTE MODE buttons.
• The remote control codes provided are correct at the
time of printing, but are subject to change.
