Note
• The remote controller can learn approximately 70 to 90 com-
mands, although this will be less if commands that use a lot of
memory are learned.
• Remote controller buttons such as Play, Stop, Pause, and so on
are preprogrammed with commands for controlling Onkyo CD
players, cassette decks, and DVD players. However, they can
learn new commands, and you can restore the preprogrammed
commands at any time by resetting the remote controller (
➔ 94).
• To overwrite a previously learned command, repeat this proce-
dure.
• Depending on the remote controller that you are using, there may
be some buttons that won’t work as expected, or even some
remotes that cannot be learned at all.
• Only commands from infrared remote controllers can be learned.
• When the remote controller’s batteries expire, all learned com-
mands will be lost and will have to be learned all over again, so
don’t discard your other remote controllers.
■ Deleting Learning Commands
1. While holding down REMOTE MODE for the mode
in which you want to delete the command, press and
hold down TV
until REMOTE MODE button
lights (about 3 seconds).
2. Press REMOTE MODE or the button from which you
want to delete the commands.
REMOTE MODE button flashes twice.
When you press REMOTE MODE, all commands
learned in that remote mode will be deleted.
You can program the remote controller’s ACTIVITIES to
perform a sequence of remote control actions.
Example:
To play a CD you typically need to perform the following
actions:
1. Press RECEIVER to select the Receiver remote con-
troller mode.
2. Press ON to turn on the AV receiver.
3. Press TV/CD to select the TV/CD input source.
4. Press
to start playback on the CD player.
You can program ACTIVITIES so that all four actions are
performed with just one button press.
