The Learn column lists “learnable” keys on the

A/V receiver’s remote control.

2 A check mark next to a key name indicates it

has been “learned” by NetCommand.

3 Input1 through Input5 are arbitrary names the

TV uses to uniquely identify A/V receiver inputs.

connected to the associated A/V receiver input.

For example, if you “learned” the A/V receiver’s
TV audio input as Input1, select TV Audio from
the Assign Input1 column. Likewise, if you
“learned” the A/V receiver’s DVD input as Input2,
select DVD in the Assign Input2 column.
