You may wish to teach your remote control some of the Nº36’s special com-
mands (those for which there is no corresponding front panel button); in this
case, you should go directly to the next section. At some point, however, you
should test all your newly “learned” commands to ensure that they were “learned”
correctly.
Teaching Other
Nº36 Commands
As mentioned above, the Nº36 has the capability to teach learning remote con-
trols special commands for which there are no front panel counterparts. These
commands can be especially helpful in solving problems in certain kinds of cus-
tom installations.
These “hard assignment” commands in the Nº36 will place it into a certain mode
of operation regardless of its current state. For example, a hard assignment com-
mand to enter
standby
will
leave
the Nº36 in
standby
if already there, or
switch
it to
standby
if it is currently operating. This type of hard assignment command
is especially helpful when you do not necessarily know the current status of the
Nº36, as might be the case in a multi-room home entertainment system (for ex-
ample).

PRESS AND HOLD THE TEACH IR BUTTON UNTIL “CMD# 01” APPEARS IN
THE DISPLAY
A momentary press of the
teach ir
button will, of course, simply get you
ready to teach front panel button commands, as discussed in the last sec-
tion. When you “camp on” the
teach ir
button instead, the Nº36 will wait for
a few seconds to make sure that your press-and-hold action is quite delib-
erate, and then enter a teaching mode for its “special” commands. If no fur-
ther buttons are pressed within approximately ten seconds, the Nº36 will
“time out” and return to normal operation.

PRESS THE TEACH IR BUTTON REPEATEDLY UNTIL THE DESIRED COM-
MAND NUMBER APPEARS IN THE DISPLAY
The table below lists the special commands that are available for the Nº36.
In the second column are the commands numbers used in the display to
represent those special commands.

MOMENTARILY PRESS THE MODE BUTTON TO TRANSMIT THAT CODE
Line up the IR window of your remote control with the left side of the dis-
play of the Nº36, at a distance of approximately 2"-6". Select the to-be-
learned button on the remote, then fire the selected code from the Nº36 by
pressing
