Punch-Through Configuration
Punch-through is a capability of the remote that
allows the Volume controls, Channel Up/Down buttons
or Transport keys (Play, Stop, Record, Fast Forward and
Reverse, and Skip Up/Down) to link to a different
device. For example, if your TV, cable box or satellite
receiver is connected through the DPR you will
most likely want to use the DPR’s volume control
commands even when the remote has been set
to issue all other commands for the video device.
“Punch-through” enables you to easily program
the remote to do this.
Volume Punch-Through
Follow these steps to enable the Volume Up/Down and
Mute controls from one device to be used when the
remote is otherwise programmed for a different device.
NOTE FOR VOLUME PUNCH-THROUGH:
The
remote’s default settings are for the DPR’s volume con-
trols to be used when any input or device is selected
with the exception of the VID 2/TV button. There is no
need to program the remote for volume punch-through
for the DPR’s controls with other sources, such as DVD.
To have the DPR’s volume commands used when the
TV device is selected, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the
Program Button
O
for
about three seconds while the message shown
in Figure 15 appears in the remote’s
LCD
Information Display
2
. Release the button
when the red light under the
Set Button
F
appears.
2. The remote’s
MAIN MENU
message (Figure 16),
will appear in the LCD display and the
Set Button
F
will remain illuminated in red. Press the

until

appears on the bottom line of the
LCD screen, as shown in Figure 48. Press the
Set
Button
F
to enter the main punch-through
menu branch.

4. The next display screen (Figure 50) is where you
select the device that will receive the punch-
through commands. In our example, that is the
VID 2/TV button, as that is where we want the
DPR’s volume controls to be active. Press the

until the name
of the base device appears and then press the

until the desired device’s
name appears to the right of the device in use.In
our example, that is the DPR (indicated by
AVR
).
When the desired combination of devices appears,

will flash four times and then the remote
will return to normal operation.

are pressed while the master device is
in use.
