Inserting batteries into the

remote control

1. Open the battery compartment by pressing the

button on the back of the handset.

2. Insert four ‘AAA’ batteries into the battery

compartment – two facing the top of the unit, and

two facing the end, as in the diagram.
3. Lower the end cap onto the plastic locating plate

in the handset. This acts as a hinge, and you can

now push the end cap firmly into its locked position

with a click.

Select the source key first

Remember to select a source key before pressing
command buttons – commands vary depending on
the source selected!

The CR100 Universal remote

controller

The CR100 is a sophisticated ‘universal’ remote
control that can control up to eight devices. It’s pre-
programmed for use with the Solo Movie 5.1 and
many other Arcam products (amplifier, multi-channel
sound processor, CD-player or DVD-player).
With its extensive built-in library of codes, it can
also be used with thousands of other audio-visual
components – TVs, satellite and set-top boxes,
VCRs and third-party CD players. See the CR100
Handbook for a list of these.
The CR100 is a ‘learning’ remote, so you can teach it
almost any function from an old single-device remote.
You can also program the CR100 to issue a sequence
of commands (‘macros’) from a single button press.
See the CR100 Handbook for details.
As the CR100 is a system remote controller, some of

the keys are not used with the Solo Movie 5.1. The unit

does not have VCR, CD or MCH (multi-channel) inputs,

so these keys do not change the source.

The

VCR

and

CD

keys can still be programmed to

control products, so if you have a VCR connected
directly to your TV or SAT box, you can use the
CR100 to control it as part of your system.
To play CDs, the Solo Movie 5.1 should be thought of
as a DVD player, so you should use the

DVD

button.

It is possible to duplicate the DVD functions on the

CD

key if you want to use both keys to operate the

DVD/CD part of Solo Movie 5.1. See the CR100
handbook for details.

Source keys

As the CR100 can operate different features of the
Solo Movie 5.1 as well as a range of other equipment,
many of the buttons have more than one function
depending on the ‘device mode’ selected.
The device selection keys:

DVD

,

SAT

,

AV

(TV),

TUN

,

AMP

and

AUX

, select the source and configures the

CR100 to control the particular source.
In other words, the other buttons are often ‘context
sensitive’ so you’ll have to tell it what sort of device
you wish to control (press the

AV

button for a video

display, for example) before you can control it.
