CONFIGURING THE REMOTE

CONFIGURING THE REMOTE 45

To restore the EzSet feature to normal operation,
repeat the procedure outlined above, except that in
Step 3 you should press the

⁄

Navigation

Button

so that

EZSET ENABLE

appears in the

lower line of the LCD display. When that display
appears, press the

Set Button

and the EzSet fea-

ture will be reactivated. You may then press the

Clear

Button

to exit the remote’s menu system and

return to normal operation or press the

Set Button

again to immediately use the EzSet feature to

calibrate the system as shown on pages 24 – 25.

Renaming

While the names given to the buttons and inputs on the
remote represent recognizable categories of audio/
video products, system operation may be easier if the
displays shown in the remote’s LCD screen are cus-
tomized to reflect the specific characteristics of a play-
back source’s brand name or the new function given to
a specific button when one remote’s controls are pro-
grammed into the AVR remote. The AVR remote allows
you to change the name of either a master device or
any button on the remote using the following steps.

Renaming a Device

To rename a specific device/input source button, follow
these steps. For this example, we will show you how to
rename the Device/Input Selector normally shown as
“TV” to “HDTV TUNER.”

1. Press and hold the

Program Button

for

about three seconds while the message shown
in Figure 15 appears in the remote’s

LCD

Information Display

. Release the button

when the red light under the

Set Button

appears.

2. The remote’s

MAIN MENU

message (Figure 16),

will appear in the LCD display and the

Set Button

will remain illuminated in red. Press the

⁄

Navigation Button

until

RENAME

appears

on the bottom line of the LCD screen, as shown in
Figure 66.

3. At the next menu screen press the

⁄

Navigation Button

until

RENAME

DEVICE

appears on the bottom line of the

LCD screen, as shown in Figure 67. Press the

Set Button

to begin renaming a device.

Figure 67

4. The next display screen (Figure 68) is where you

select the device that will be renamed. In our
example, that is the TV button. Press the

⁄

Navigation Button

until the name of the

base device appears and then press the

Set

Button

Figure 68

5. At the next menu screen you will see the device

name on the bottom line of the display with a
blinking cursor box to the right of the device name.
Press the

‹

Navigation Button

to return the

blinking cursor to the far left side of the display
line. You may then retitle the device name as
shown in the next step.

6. To enter the new name, press the

Numeric Keys

. The letters above the numbered buttons indi-

cate which letter or symbol will appear when the
button is pressed during the renaming process.
The first press of the button will enter the first letter
shown, subsequent presses of the same button will
change the display to the other letters above that
numbered key. For example, since the first letter
we need to rename the input to HDTV Tuner is an
“H”, you would locate the “H” above the “4” but-
ton, and press the button twice. The first press
shows a “G,” the second press changes it to an
“H.” Consult the table at the end of this section to
see which characters pressing a particular button
generates.

7. After you enter the first letter of the new device

name, there are three options for entering the next
character:

a. To enter a letter that requires a different

numeric key to be pressed, simply press that
button. The cursor will automatically move to
the next position and the first letter accessed
by the new button will appear. Following our
example, the next letter needed is a “D,” so
you would press the “3” button once.

b. To enter a letter that uses the same numeric

key, you must first press the

›

Navigation

Button

to move the blinking cursor block

to the next position. Then press the

Numeric

Key

as required to enter the desired letter.

c. To enter a blank space, press the

›

Navigation

Button

twice. The first press will move the

cursor to the right, and the second press will
move the cursor one more space to the right,
leaving a blank space between the last letter and
the next one.

8. Repeat Step 7 as needed to enter all the needed

letters, numbers, characters and spaces.

9. When the text entry is complete, press the

Set Button

. The LCD display will blink

DEVICE RENAMED

three times and then return

to normal operation.

Once a device is renamed you will see the new name
on the top line of the remote’s LCD display whenever
the

Input//Device Selector

is pressed, or when

any other command/function button on the remote is
pressed after the main Device Selector is pressed.
Note that renaming a device in the remote will

not

change the name of the input used by the on-screen
menu system of the AVR 7200.

NOTES ON RENAMING DEVICES:

• To move the cursor to the right or left of the display

during the renaming process, press the

‹

›

Navigation Buttons

as required.

• The table below shows the letters, numbers and

characters that may be accessed by pressing the
Numeric Keys:

• Renaming a device changes the name of the device

only, not any of the individual key functions within
that device memory. To change the name of an
individual device, follow the instructions in the next
section.

Renaming Individual Keys

Thanks to the programming flexibility of the AVR
remote, an individual button on the remote may be
assigned a feature or function that is different from the
name that appears as the factory default when the but-
ton is pressed. However, with the Rename Key function
it is possible to rename almost any button on the
remote so that when the button is pressed you will see
a more descriptive or appropriate name displayed.

To rename a specific button on the remote, follow
these steps. For this example, we will show you how to
rename the

DSP Surround Mode Selector

which is normally not used when DVD is selected, so
that it reads

ZOOM

in the remote’s display.

1. Press and hold the

Program Button

for

about three seconds while the message shown
in Figure 15 appears in the remote’s

LCD

Information Display

. Release the button
