Learning command codes
The RC-452’s design allows it to be used for the con-
trol of up to five devices in addition to the AV-452:
projector or display (
TV/PROJECTOR
), audio cas-
sette recorder (
CASSETTE
), videocassette recorder
(
VCR
), CD recorder (
CD-RW
), and DVD player
(
DVD
).
Of course, the devices and functions that you pro-
gram for them do not have to match absolutely with
those marked on the AV-452 and RC-452, but it
makes sense to map the target units to the RC-452’s
labels.
To teach remote control commands from another
remote control unit to the RC-452:
1
Make sure that both the RC-452 and the other
equipment’s remote control unit have batter-
ies installed, and place them on a flat surface,
about 2–3 cm (about an inch) apart, facing
each other.
2
On the RC-452, press and hold the
SET
key
1
and then press the
LEARN
key
D
. Release
these keys. The
SET
indicator lights steadily.
3
Within 10 seconds of the previous step, press
the
,
key of the RC-452’s
VCR
section
7
three times.
The
SET
indicator
1
of the RC-452 flashes as
you press it and remains lit to show the unit is
now in learning mode.
4
On the RC-452, press the key which will be
mapped to the other equipment’s function.
The
SET
indicator
1
of the RC-452 starts
flashing rapidly to show that learning is
started.
5
On the other equipment’s remote control unit,
press the key to be learned. The RC-452’s
SET
indicator
1
stops flashing rapidly and lights
steadily for a short time, goes out briefly once
and then lights steadily to show that the com-
mand has been learned.
•
If the RC-452’s
SET
indicator goes out
briefly three times and then lights steadily, it
means that the learning command has not
been properly learned.
•
If the RC-452’s
SET
indicator goes out
briefly six times and then lights steadily, it
means that the RC-452’s memory is full, and
no more commands can be learned.
6
Repeat steps
4
and
5
until all appropriate
commands have been learned.
7
To exit the learning mode, press the RC-452’s
LEARN
key
D
. The
SET
indicator goes out (it
also goes out if no keys are pressed on the RC-
452 for about 10 seconds).
NOTE
The RC-452 can learn and store up to 36 different com-
mands.
The angle and distance between the two remote con-
trol units affects the difficulty of the learning process.
The RC-452 may not be able to learn some units’ com-
mands which use long IR codes for transmission.
