Using the DVS5.1 with a Remote Control
Remote operations of the DVS5.1 are accomplished through the use of just about any remote con-
trol.
A remote control is not supplied with the DVS5.1,
yet the versatile programming modes of the
DVS5.1 allows the DVS5.1 to work with virtually any remote control. The next section
"Program-
ming your Remote Control"
on page 7, describes how to setup your remote control. After your re-
mote control is programmed, the following describes the pre-programmed functions of the DVS5.1.
There are 12 separate remote controlled commands understood by the DVS5.1. They are:
•
P
OWER
T
OGGLE
.The DVS5.1 can be toggled from standby to power on, and back to standby
using a single button of the remote.

it will power on and then select input 1.

pressing a single button of the remote. Once the DVS5.1 is in
standby mode, further presses of the

feature of some programmable remote controls, and is used
when it is unknown whether or not the DVS5.1 is already in
standby mode.

pressing a single button of the remote. Once the DVS5.1 is
powered on, further presses of the

that allow “macro” programming, where it is unknown whether
or not the DVS5.1 is already powered on.
