AVR5 om (e)  2/5/99  10:38 AM  Page 12

Remote Control Functions

The AVR5’s

remote may be programmed to con-
trol up to three additional devices,
including the AVR5. Before using the
remote, it is important to remember to
press the 

button 

∂ ≠ that corresponds to the

unit you wish to operate. The remote
is capable of operating a wide variety
of products using the control codes
that are part of the remote. Before
using the remote with other products,
follow the instructions on pages
23–26 to program the proper codes
for the products in your system.

It is also important to remember that
many of the buttons on the remote
take on different functions, depend-
ing on the product selected using
the Device Control Selectors. The
descriptions shown here primarily
detail the functions of the remote
when it is used to operate the AVR5.
(See page 24 for information about
alternate functions for the remote’s
buttons.)

å

This indicator 

will flash whenever a button is
pressed to confirm that a remote
command is being transmitted. It will
also flash while the remote is being
programmed to assist in entering or
reading remote codes. Note that this
is NOT a standard remote button,
and has no function when pressed.

∫

When the AVR5

is turned on, press this button to
place it in the Standby mode. Note

AVR5 on.

∂

Press

one of these buttons to use the
remote to control the functions of
another audio/video device. Note
that the button will briefly turn red
after it has been pressed to confirm
your selection. (See pages 23–25 for
information on programming the
AVR5’s remote to operate these
devices.)

Press this button to

use the remote control for operation of
the AVR5. Note that the button will
briefly turn red after it has been
pressed to confirm your selection.

ƒ

Press these

buttons to select an input source for
the AVR5. The AM/FM button is also
used to switch between frequency
bands when the tuner is in use.

NOTE:

Pressing one of these buttons

selects the source only. In order to
control the actual source machine
using the remote you must press the

button
