Programming the Remote

To find out what function a particular
button has for a specific device, find
the button number on the Function List
and then look in the column for the
device you are controlling. For example,
button number 5 is the Test Tone button
for the AVR45, but it is the “Favorite”
button for many VCRs and Satellite
receivers. Button number 31 is the
Preset Tune Down button for the AVR45,
the “Reverse Skip” button for CD players
and the “Page Down” button for some
cable boxes.

Notes on Using the AVR45 Remote With
Other Devices.
• Manufacturers may use different code

sets for the same product category. For
that reason, it is important that you
check to see if the code set you have
entered operates as many controls as
possible. If it appears that only a few
functions operate, check to see if
another code set will work with more
buttons.

• When a button is pressed on the AVR45

remote, the red light under the

Device Control Selector

b

for

the product being operated should
flash briefly. If the Device Control
Selector flashes for some, but not all
buttons for a particular product, it
does NOT indicate a problem with the
remote, but rather that no function is
programmed for the button being
pushed.

Macro Programming

The Power button may be programmed to
send out a sequence of up to eight com-
mands when it is pushed. This enables
you to turn on a number of products,
and to have a program source turn to a
favorite channel or any other command.

To program a macro into the Power
button, follow these steps:

1. Press any of the

Device Control

Selectors

and the

Mute

at the same time until

the red light under the Device Control
Selector turns on.

2. Press the

button

c

and

note that the Device Control Selector
will blink once.

3. Enter up to eight macro steps, by

pressing the

Device Control

button

and then the function button for each
step you wish to enter. To enter the
“Power On/Off” command during
macro programming, press the

Mute

button

d

. DO NOT press the actual

Power Button.

4. When the eight steps have been

entered, press the

Sleep

button

`

to enter the commands. The red light
under the

Device Control Selector

will blink and then turn off.
