System Remote Control Functions, continued

System Remote Control Functions, continued

In addition to controlling the AVr, the AVr remote is capable of controlling eight other 

devices. during the installation process, you may program the codes for each of your 

source components into the remote. (See 

program the remote to control Your Source 

devices and tV, on page 16, for programming information.) to operate a component, 

press its Source Selector button to change the remote’s control mode.
A button’s function depends on which component is being controlled. See table A10 in 

the Appendix for listings of the functions for each type of component. Most of the buttons 

on the remote have dedicated functions, although the precise codes transmitted vary 

depending on the specific device being controlled. due to the wide variety of functions 

for various source devices, we have included only a few of the most often-used functions 

on the remote: alphanumeric keys, transport controls, television-channel control, menu 

access and power on and off. to return the remote to the AVr control mode at any time, 

press the AVr button. 

IR Transmitter lens:

 As buttons are pressed on the remote, infrared codes are emitted 

through this lens.

Program Indicator LED:

 this led lights up to indicate various procedures when the 

remote is in the programming mode.

Power On/Off buttons:

 press these buttons to turn the AVr or the device being controlled 

on and off. the Main power switch on the AVr’s rear panel must be on for this button to 

turn the AVr on and off.

Mute  button:

  press  this  button  to  mute  the  AVr’s  speaker-output  connectors  and 

headphone jack. to restore the sound, press this button or adjust the volume.

AVR button:

 press this button to switch the remote’s control mode to operate the AVr.

Source Selector buttons:

 press one of these buttons to select a source device, e.g., 

dVd, AM/FM radio, etc. this action will also turn on the AVr and switch the remote’s 

control mode to operate the selected source device. 

NOTE:

 the first press of the radio 

Source Selector button switches the AVr to the last-used tuner band (AM or FM). each 

successive press changes the band.

Test  Tone  button: 

press  this  button  to  activate  the  test  tone  for  calibrating  channel 

volume levels by ear.

Sleep button/Channel Up/Down buttons: 

press the Sleep button to activate the sleep 

timer, which turns off the AVr after a programmed period of time of up to 90 minutes. the 

channel up/down buttons have no effect on the AVr but are used to change channels on 

tVs and some video sources.

Volume Up/Down buttons:

 press these buttons to raise or lower the volume.

OSD button: 

press this button to activate the on-screen display menu system.

Channel Level Control button:

 press this button to activate the individual channel-level 

adjustment. It lets you easily change the channel balance to suit different programs or 

seating arrangements. See 

configure the AVr for Your Speakers, on page 17, for more 

information.

Speaker  Setup  button:

  press  this  button  to  configure  which  speakers  are  included 

in  your  system.  See 

configure  the  AVr  for  Your  Speakers,  on  page  17,  for  more 

information.

OK button:

 this button is used to select items from the menu system.

Digital  Input  button:

  press  this  button  to  select  the  specific  digital  audio  input  (or 

analogue audio input) to which the current source is connected.

Delay button:

 pressing this button lets you adjust two different types of delay settings 

(use the up/down buttons to cycle through the settings):

A/V Sync: this setting lets you resynchronise the audio and video signals from a source  

 

to eliminate a “lip sync” problem. lip-sync issues can occur when the video portion 

of a signal undergoes additional processing in either the source device or the video 

display. use the left/right buttons to delay the audio by up to 180ms.
Front l/centre/Front r/Surr r/Surr l/Subwoofer: these settings let you set the delay 

 

for  each  speaker  to  compensate  for  the  different  distances  they  may  be  from  the 

listening position. use the up/down buttons to cycle through each of the system’s 

speakers, and use the left/right buttons to set the distance each speaker is from  

the listening position. See 

configure the AVr for Your Speakers, on page 17, for more 

information.

Left/Right/Up/Down buttons:

 these buttons are used to navigate the menu system.

Number buttons:

 use these buttons to enter numbers for radio-station frequencies or 

to select station presets.

Tuning  Mode  button:

  press  this  button  to  toggle  the  radio  between  manual  (one 

frequency  step  at  a  time)  and  automatic  (seeks  frequencies  with  acceptable  signal 

strength) tuning mode. It also toggles between stereo and mono modes when an FM 

station is tuned in.

Memory button:

 to save the currently tuned radio station as a preset, press this button, 

then a number button.

Direct Station Entry button:

 press this button before using the number buttons to enter 

a radio station frequency.

Clear button:

 press this button to clear a radio station frequency you have started to 

enter.

Tuning Up/Down buttons:

 press these buttons to tune a radio station. depending on 

whether the tuning mode has been set to manual or automatic, each press will either 

change  one  tuning  frequency  increment  at  a  time  or  seek  the  next  higher  or  lower 

station with acceptable signal strength.

Preset Station Up/Down buttons:

 press these buttons to cycle through your preset 

radio stations.

Tone Control button:

 press this button to access the bass and treble controls. use the  

ok button to select an adjustment and use the up/down buttons to change the settings.

RDS button:

 when listening to an FM radio station that broadcasts rdS information, this 

button activates the various rdS functions.

Night Mode button:

 press this button to activate night mode with specially encoded 

dolby  digital  discs  or  broadcasts.  night  mode  compresses  the  audio  so  that  louder 

passages  are  reduced  in  volume  to  avoid  disturbing  others,  while  dialogue  remains 

intelligible. each press of the button advances through the following settings:

off: no compression is applied. loud passages in the program remain as they were 

 

recorded. 
Mid: loud passages in the program are reduced moderately in volume.

 

Max: loud passages in the program are reduced more in volume.

 

Macro buttons:

 these buttons may be programmed to execute a series of up to 19 

commands with a single button press. they are useful for programming the command 

to  turn  on  or  off  all  of  your  components  or  for  accessing  specialised  functions  for  a 

different component from the one that you are currently operating. See 

programming 

Macro commands, on page 22, for information about programming macros.

Track Skip Up/Down buttons:

 these buttons have no effect on the AVr but are used 

with many source components to change tracks or chapters.

Display Dimmer button:

 press this button to dim the AVr’s front-panel display partially 

or fully.

Transport Control buttons:

 these buttons have no effect on the AVr but are used to 

control many source components. by default, when the remote is operating the AVr, 

these buttons will control a harman kardon blu-ray disc player or dVd player.
