The AVR21EN utilizes a unique control system where the external sources connected to the AVR
Rear Panel, (Disc 1, Disc 2, Disc 3, AUX, VR, Cable/SAT) are not controlled directly from the
AVR21ENR1 Main Room Remote. Instead, the remote outputs proprietary Audioaccess IR
commands that are recognized by the AVR21EN and converted to the specific manufacturer’s
control codes for the external sources.
This section of the OSD Setup configures IR control of the devices controlled via the AVR21EN
rear panel
Control Out Jacks [circle 36]
specifically. Two other devices, TV and Game/Cam,
can be controlled directly from the AVR21ENR1 Main Room Remote and are setup in the remote
itself.
The AVR21EN outputs the IR commands from its rear panel
Control Out Jacks [circle 36]
via
IR emitters. Emitters are tiny LED’s that get attached to the front panels of external, common
source components, over the IR eyes, and ‘flash’ the specific control codes for the various
devices as prompted by the AVR.
This method allows the AVR to manage source IR control beyond regular device control for play,
stop, etc. It provides additional system capabilities for functions such as power management, to
govern the on/off status of the sources and keep them in sync with the system. It also allows
selective control of multiple same-brand, same-model components (multiple DVD players,
cable/sat receivers, etc) with what is called IR routing. This method of setting up each source’s
control codes also allows the multiroom section of the system control the common source
components from remote locations.
To configure the AVR21EN for source IR control, press the
Menu Button [oval 44]
to bring the
MAIN MENU
to the screen. Press the
