CTL101 Operation Manual - V1.3 03/22/02

REPROGRAMMING OR USING A DIFFERENT IR REMOTE CONTROL

The CTL120 IR Remote is pre-programmed at the factory and will readily support most
applications. However, If operators wish to use their own remote, or if the CTL120 commands
interfere / are incompatible with components in the system, the existing command codes may
have to be changed. Recommended manufacturer’s command codes include Sony (default),
JVC, Panasonic, Pioneer and RCA/Proscan. A complete list of manufacturers, components and
code numbers is provided in the CTL120 Operation Manual.
Note: Reprogramming of the CTL120 Remote should only be done by qualified technicians.

When first setting up IR commands with a new manufacturer / component remote control code
format, a "Signal Error" may result. If this happens, try again. If the "Signal Error" message
occurs three times, then the manufacturer / component code is incompatible with the CTL101.
Try another manufacturer’s code format (a list of available codes is provided in the back of the
CTL120 Operations Manual).
