Controlling other equipment

Using the remote control with other
components

The supplied remote control can operate not only this
receiver, but also your TV, DVD player and other
components, once you’ve programmed it with the
appropriate preset code.

When you select an input (

DVD

,

TV/SAT

,

DVR/VCR

,

VIDEO

,

FRONT

or

FM/AM

), you change both the

receiver’s input source and the remote control mode (see
also

Resetting all remote control settings

on page 39).

Some buttons on the remote have different functions
depending on the current mode of the remote.

The

TV CONTROL

buttons are dedicated to controlling

the TV. They will always control the TV no matter what
operation mode the remote is in. Similarly, the DVD
recorder controls (

REC

,

STOP REC

,

HDD

and

DVD

)

The default preset codes are shown in the table.
