Basic Operation
SDP-40
2-9
REMOTE CONTROL OVERVIEW
The SDP-40 remote control provides full operation of the SDP-40,
performing commands such as menu navigation that are not
available from the front panel. The command matrix that begins
on page 2-14 indicates the commands remote control buttons
perform when each command bank is activated. The numbered
items in the matrix correspond with the remote control illustrations
on pages 2-14 to 2-18.
OPERATION CONSIDERATIONS
The bulleted items that begin below describe factors that can
improve or impede remote control operation. It is recommended
to observe these items as well as the battery installation instructions
on page 1-5 before operating the remote control.
Please note the following before operating the SDP-40 remote
control:
•
When the SDP-40 is not using the rear panel IR IN connector,
the remote control must be in line-of-sight with the front panel
IR receiver for proper operation. Eliminate obstructions
between the remote control and the IR receiver. The remote
control might become unreliable if strong sunlight or
fluorescent light is shining on the IR receiver.
•
For optimal performance, position the remote control at a 30
degree angle no more than 17 feet (5m) from the SDP-40. If
the SDP-40 is placed inside a glass cabinet, smoked glass will
reduce the remote control range.
•
Remote controllers for different components can interfere with
one another. It is recommended to avoid using remote controls
for different components at the same time.
•
The remote control batteries should be replaced as needed.
