Programming Remote Control “Punch-Through” Commands
after programming the remote to control an auxiliary (aux) component, you can also
program it so it will control the aux component’s channel up/down and transport
functions (play, pause, etc.) even when the remote is not in the aux-control mode. for
example, if the remote is programmed to operate your tV in the aux control mode, you
can also have the tV’s c/– functions “punch through” and operate even when
the remote is in the Disc, radio or ipod control modes.
1. press and hold the Input button for the main device the remote will be operating. the
button will light up, go dark and then light up again. release the button.
2. Select the type of punch-through programming.
a) for “punch-through” channel control, press the channel up button.
b) for “punch-through” transport control, press the play button.
3. press the aux button. the original Input button will flash to confirm.
you can repeat Step 1 – Step 3 for any of the remote’s Input buttons (aux, radio, etc.).
note: “punch-through” channel and transport commands will override the existing
commands for those buttons in the source modes you program.
to undo “punch-through” programming, follow the same steps as above, but press the
same Input button in Step 1 and Step 3.
Erasing All Learned Button Codes
1. press and hold the options button for more than three seconds. the remote’s aux
Input button will light up.
2. press the aux Input button. the button will flash.
3. Hold down the “9” number button for at least three seconds, three times in a row.
the aux Input button will flash three times then will go out. all learned button codes
have now been erased.
Resetting the Remote to Factory Default Condition
1. press the aux Input button and the “0” number button simultaneously. the aux
button will light up.
2. Hold down the “3” number button for at least three seconds, three times in a row. all
of the input buttons will flash three times.
3. after the input buttons stop flashing, all remote programming has been erased and
the remote is reset to its factory default programming.
