Marantz RC5000i - Manual (Page 20)

1. Introduction
It is best to proceed with customizing in several stages. The first
stage is to teach all of your existing remote codes to the
RC5000i. The second stage is to practice using your home
theater system with the RC5000i. As you gain familiarity with
your system, you’ll notice that many operations in a home
theater require several steps. In the third stage of
customization, you will record multiple step operations as either
a “Macro” that you can play back with one button push or as a
list of numbered steps recorded in a “Help” device group.
In the next few pages you’ll find step by step guidelines on each
of the three stages. When a more detailed explanation can be
found in the Reference section, we’ve noted the page.
1 Gather all of your remote controls in front of you.
2 Play with all of the example device groups. Compare the device
groups with your existing remote controls. Can you use any as
templates for non-Marantz components?
3 Use DEL mode to delete all of the device groups that you don’t
like (see page 40).
4 Use ADD mode to add the device groups for each Marantz
component (see page 35-40).
When you are prompted to add with or without RC codes,
choose WITH RC CODES.
5 Use ADD mode to add a device group for each non-Marantz
component (see page 38).
Choose WITHOUT RC CODES.
6 Switch to LEARN Mode to evaluate the panel layouts of the new
device group (in Use Mode, you cannot see buttons that have
no RC codes).
