Controlling Other Components—Continued
The AV receiver’s remote controller can receive and
learn commands from other remote controllers. By trans-
mitting, for example, the Play command from your CD
player’s remote controller, the remote controller can
learn it and then transmit the exact same command when
its Play [ ] button is pressed in the CD remote mode.
You can also use this function to learn individual com-
mands after entering a remote control code (page 86).
Notes:
• The following buttons cannot learn new commands:
REMOTE MODE, MACRO [1], [2], [3], TV [ ],
TV [INPUT], TV CH [+]/[–], TV VOL [ ]/[ ],
Light.
• The remote controller can learn approximately 70-90
commands, although, this will be reduced by com-
mands that use a lot of memory.
• Remote controller buttons such as Play, Stop, Pause,
and so on are preprogrammed with commands for
controlling Onkyo CD players, cassette decks, and
DVD players. However, they can learn new com-
mands, and you can restore the preprogrammed com-
mands by resetting the remote controller (see
page 87).
•To overwrite a previously learned command, repeat
this procedure.
• Only commands from infrared remote controllers can
be learned.
• When the remote controller’s batteries expire, all
learned commands will be lost and will have to be
learned all over again, so don’t discard your other
remote controllers.

the Remote indicator flashes twice.
