REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS
The AVR 247 remote is capable of controlling 11 devices, including the
AVR itself and an iPod docked in the optional The Bridge accessory.
During the installation process, you may program the codes for each
of your source components into the remote. Each time you wish to use
the codes for any component, first press the Selector button for that
component. This changes the button functions to the appropriate codes
for that product.
NOTE: Several of the Input Selectors are shared between two
devices. The selector button will light in red when the remote
is in the device mode printed on the button, and it will light in
green for the device mode printed above the button. To switch
between the two device modes, press the selector
twice quickly
in succession. The selector will remain in the last-selected mode
until the next time you press the selector twice quickly.
For example, the first time you press the DVD button, the button
will light up in red, indicating that the remote is in DVD mode. If
you press another selector, such as the VID3 selector, and then
press the DVD button again, the DVD button will remain red,
indicating the remote is still in DVD mode. Now press the DVD
button twice quickly. At the first press the button will light red,
indicating that the remote is in DVD mode. On the second press
the button will turn green, indicating that the remote is now in CD
mode. If you press a different selector and return to the DVD/CD
Selector, you will observe that the remote is still in CD mode.
Each Input Selector has been preprogrammed to control certain types
of components, with only the codes specific to each brand and model
changing, depending on which product code is programmed. The
device types programmed into each selector may not be changed.
However, you may program the HDMI 1 and 2 Selectors with the DVD,
cable/satellite or VCR/PVR device type.
DVD:
Controls DVD players and recorders.
CD:
Controls CD players and recorders.
Tape:
Controls cassette decks.
Video 1:
Controls VCRs, TiVo ® and PVRs.
Video 2:
Controls cable and satellite television set-top boxes.
Video 3:
Controls televisions and other video displays.
Video 4:
Controls televisions and other video displays.
HDMI 1 and 2:
Each code set controls a source device (VCR/PVR,
DVD player or cable/satellite set-top box) connected to one of these
two inputs.
XM:
Controls the AVR functions for XM Satellite Radio.
The Bridge/DMP:
Controls an iPod docked in The Bridge.
For example, if you have inserted a disc in your CD player and you
would like to skip ahead three tracks, but you then find that the volume
is too loud, you would follow this procedure:
1.
Press the CD Input Selector to switch to the codes that control your
CD player. If the remote is in DVD mode, press the selector twice quickly
to switch to CD mode, indicated by the selector lighting in green.
2.
Press the Play Button (in the Transport Controls section) if the disc
is not already playing.
3.
Press the Skip Up Button three times to advance three tracks.
4.
Press the AVR Button so that you can access the Volume Controls.
5.
Press the Volume Down Button until the volume level is satisfactory.
Any given button may have different functions, depending on which
component is being controlled. Some buttons are labeled with these
functions. For example, the Sleep and DSP Surround Buttons are
labeled for use as Channel Up/Down Buttons when controlling a televi-
sion or cable box. See Table A8 in the appendix for listings of the
different functions for each type of component.
IR Transmitter Lens:
As buttons are pressed on the remote,
infrared codes are emitted through this lens. Make sure it is pointing
toward the component being operated.
Power On Button:
Press this button to turn on the AVR or another
device. The Master Power Switch on the AVR 247’s front panel must
first have been switched on.
Mute Button:
Press this button to mute the AVR 247’s speaker and
headphone outputs temporarily. To end the muting, press this button
or adjust the volume. Muting is also canceled when the receiver is
turned off.
Program Indicator:
This LED lights up or flashes in one of three colors
as the remote is programmed with codes.
Power Off Button:
Press this button to turn off the AVR 247 or
another device.
AVR Selector:
Press this button to switch the remote to the codes
that operate the receiver.
Input Selectors:
Press one of these buttons to select a source
device, which is a component where a playback signal originates, e.g.,
DVD, CD, cable TV, satellite or HDTV tuner, or an iPod docked in the
optional The Bridge. This will also turn on the receiver and switch the
remote’s mode to operate the source device.
XM Radio Button:
Press this button to select XM Satellite Radio as
the source. You will need to have purchased and activated an XM antenna
module, and you will also need to subscribe to the XM Radio service.
Visit www.xmradio.com for more information.
AM/FM Button:
Press this button to select the tuner as the source,
or to switch between the AM and FM bands, or XM Radio.
6-/8-Channel Input Selector:
Press this button to select the
6-/8-Channel Inputs as the audio source. The receiver will use the video
input and remote control codes for the last-selected video source.
Test Tone:
Press this button to activate the test tone for manual
output-level calibration.
TV/Video:
This button has no effect on the receiver, but is used to
switch video inputs on some video source components.
