Controlling Other Components—Continued
The AV receiver’s remote controller can learn the com-
mands of other remote controllers. By transmitting, 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.
This is useful when you’ve entered the appropriate
remote control code (page 137) but some buttons don’t
work as expected.
Notes:
• The following buttons cannot learn new commands:
REMOTE MODE, MACRO [1], [2], [3], TV CH
[+]/[–], Re-EQ, LIGHT.
• When you want to learn the command from your TV’s
Power button, select the TV remote control mode and
use the remote controller’s [STANDBY] button to
learn the command. In the TV remote control mode,
the remote controller’s [STANDBY] and TV [ ]
buttons are linked, so using the [STANDBY] button to
learn the command will mean that you can also use the
TV [ ] button to turn your TV on or off in TV
remote control mode.
• When you want to learn the commands from your
TV’s Channel Up and Down buttons, select the TV
remote control mode and use the remote controller’s
CH [+/–] button (left to the [ENTER] button) to learn
the commands. In the TV remote control mode, the
remote controller’s CH [+/–] and TV CH [+]/[–] but-
tons are linked, so using the CH [+/–] button to learn
these commands will mean that you can also use the
TV CH [+]/[–] buttons to change channels in TV
remote control mode.
• The remote controller can learn approximately 70 to
90 commands, although this will be less if commands
that use a lot of memory are learned.
• 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 at any time by resetting the remote controller
(see page 138).
• 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.
