CONTROLLING OTHER COMPONENTS
The AVM 2 Remote Control can be set up to control your TV, DVD Player, CD Player, VCR, Satellite Receiver,
and a second TV. It contains a very extensive set of Remote Control codes from many diff e re n t
manufacturers, which can be entered to virtually duplicate another Remote Control. Alternatively, the
learning function can be used to customize each key.
6.7.1 ENTERING MANUFACTURER’S CODES
In Appendix A at the back of this manual you will find the manufacturer’s codes available for programming
the AVM 2 remote. For new models, get the latest list of codes at
www.sonicfrontiers.com
. To enter a code:
1. Press the Zone/Path/Component key (e.g.
DVD
).
2. Press and hold
LEARN
until the LED flashes twice.
3. Enter the
four-digit code
from Appendix A. The LED should blink twice.
Codes can
only
be used with their respective Zone/Path/Component key. That is to say, a VCR code can
not be programmed in the DVD Zone/Path/Component key.
6.7.2 SEARCHING FOR A CODE
If a code for your component is not listed in Appendix A:
1. Turn the component on (e.g. TV).
2. Press the matching Zone/Path/Component key (e.g.
TV
).
3. Press and hold
LEARN
until the LED flashes twice.
4. Press
9, 9, 1
.
5. Aim the remote towards the TV, and alternate between pressing and
TV
.
6. Stop once the TV turns off. Immediately press and release
LEARN
to lock the code.
7. If, for future reference, you want to know what the code is, press and hold
LEARN
until the LED
flashes twice and then press
9, 9, 0, 1
. Wait 3 seconds and count the number of flashes. The number
of flashes represent the first digit (i.e. 3 flashes = 3, no flash = 0). Next, press
2
for the second digit,
3
for the third digit, and
4
for the fourth digit, and count the number of flashes each time. Record this
code number for future reference in Appendix A.
6.7.3 VOLUME LOCK
After entering a code for your TV or Satellite Receiver, you may find it inconvenient to switch the
Zone/Path/Component buttons back and forth when you alternate between say, changing channels on your
TV and adjusting the volume of MAIN (AVM 2). Not to worry, the Volume Lock feature takes care of this.
When engaged, the volume keys adjust MAIN volume, regardless of which Zone/Path/Component is
selected. You can then leave your Zone/Path/Component selection in TV – you no longer have to press MAIN
first to adjust the volume of the AVM 2.
In the following example, MAIN volume is locked onto every Zone/Path/Component selection except ZONE2.
