Mode mover
If your home entertainment setup contains devices of
the same type (e.g. two TVs, perhaps from different
manufacturers) you can still control both those devices
with the CR104. You simply need to reassign an unused
Device Mode key.
NOTE
Before using Mode Mover, make sure both the source
and destination Device Mode keys are unlocked (see
next section).
Example: To use the z key to control a
second TV
1. Press and hold S until the power LED blinks
twice: * *.
2. Press 9 9 2.
3. Press the Device Mode key for the type of device
you want to control (e.g. for a TV, press a).
4. Press the Device Mode key you want to use (e.g.
z ).
5. Don’t forget to set up the CR104 to control the
second device, using one of the methods from
‘Controlling other devices’ on page E-14.
Note that volume punch-through is not applied to a
Device Mode that has been copied using Mode Mover.
However, volume punch-through functionality can be
restored when you have used Mode Mover, by copying
-
, + and @ from the AMP Device Mode to the
same physical buttons on the new moved Device Mode
using the last example shown in Key Mover.
To restore a moved Device Mode key to its
original state
1. Press and hold S until the power LED blinks
twice: * *.
2. Press 9 9 2.
3. Press the Device Mode key you want to restore
twice.
Locking/unlocking a specific
Device Mode
When you first unpack your CR104 and insert the
batteries, for your convenience it is able to control
certain Arcam components automatically (e.g. DVD
players, Amplifiers, Tuners and CD Players). We achieve
this by preprogramming specific Arcam device codes
onto the relevant Device Mode keys, then locking
the Device Modes so you don’t reprogram them
inadvertently.
If you want to override these locked default settings – to
control a third-party CD player, for example – you will
first need to unlock CD Mode before setting up the
CR104 using one of the methods described at the start
of this guide.
Here are the factory default settings:
Device Mode Default status Default Arcam
codes
BD Locked 0762
SAT Unlocked 1205
AV Unlocked 0586
TUN Locked 2009
AMP Locked 1242
PVR Unlocked 1930
VCR Unlocked 0111
CD Locked 2010
Alternative codes are available for multi-room solutions,
or in the case of code clashes with other manufacturer’s
products.
For example:
AMP (system code 19) 1954
You will need to change the system code on the product
you wish to control, as well as the CR104.
NOTE
The
AMP Device Mode can only be used to control
Arcam amplifiers like the AVR500, AVR600 and
AV888, either on its default or alternative IR system
codes.
To toggle a Device Mode lock setting:
1. Press the Device Mode key you want to unlock
(e.g. c)
2. Press and hold S until the power LED blinks
twice: * *.
3. Press 9 8 2.
< The power LED blinks twice when being locked,
and blinks four times when being unlocked.
< If you enter an invalid key sequence, the power
LED gives one long blink and returns to normal
operation.
While the Device Mode key is locked, the Direct Code
Setup and Move Mode functions are not available.
Copy a key between Device Modes
It is possible to copy functions between Device Modes.
However, remember that button functions are Device
Mode specific and therefore effectively ‘punch-through’
to the original Device Mode when copied over.
The following example copies the AVR500/AVR600/
AV888 DIRECT function from the CR104 AMP device
mode to the shifted function of the # button on AV
Device Mode.
1. Press and hold S until the power LED blinks
twice: * *.
2. Press 9 9 4.
3. Press the Device Mode key of the function you
want to move (e.g. A).
4. Press the function key you want to move (e.g.)/
DIRECT )
5. Press the key of the Device Mode you want to
copy the function to (e.g. a)
6. Press the S button graphic
7. Press the key you want to copy the function to
(e.g. #)
If you prefer to copy the key to the main function of the
#
button instead of the ‘shifted’ function, omit point 6
in the above example.
