Using the Remote Controller with Other Components —Continued
You can teach the DTR-7.4’s remote controller new
commands simply by transmitting commands from
another remote controller one at time. For example, by
transmitting the Play and Stop commands from your
CD player’s remote controller, the DTR-7.4’s remote
controller can be taught to transmit those commands
when its Play and Stop buttons are pressed in CD
mode.
This is convenient when you want to add commands to
buttons after entering a remote control code (page 89).
Notes:
• The following buttons cannot be taught new com-
mands: LIGHT, Customs, Macro, Mode, Input, Zone
2, and the scroll wheel button.
• The DTR-7.4’s remote controller can learn a total of
150 commands. However, the commands of some
remote controllers may use a lot of memory, in which
case, this total will be reduced.
• If the message “FULL” appears, the remote control-
ler cannot learn any more commands because its
memory is full.
• By default, the DTR-7.4’s remote controller knows
the commands for controlling an Onkyo CD player,
cassette deck, DVD player, and MD player (e.g.,
Play, Stop, Pause, etc., buttons). You can teach these
buttons new commands, although the defaults will be
restored if the remote controller is reset.
• To teach a new command to a button that has already
been taught a command, simply repeat this proce-
dure.
• Like most remote controllers, the DTR-7.4’s remote
controller uses infrared. Commands from remote
controllers that don’t use infrared cannot be learnt.
• When the remote controller’s batteries expire, all
learnt commands will be lost and will have to learnt
all over again, so don’t discard your other remote
controllers.
Learning Commands from Another
Remote Controller

for more than three seconds.
The remote controller enters Custom
mode.
2 Roll the scroll wheel to select
“LEARN,” and then press the

4 On the DTR-7.4’s remote con-
troller, press the button you want
to teach the new command.
If you press a button that cannot be
taught a new command, the message
“RETRY” appears and you should press
another button.
Custom
5 Point the remote controllers at
each other, about 2 to 6 inches (5–
15 cm) apart, and then, on the
other remote controller, press the
button whose command you want
to learn.
When the command has been learnt suc-
cessfully, “OK” appears on the display.
You may need to press the button several
times.
If the command is not learnt success-
fully, after the message “FAIL” has been
displayed, the mode select display reap-
pears (step 3), and you should try again.
6 To teach the DTR-7.4’s remote
controller more new commands,
repeat steps 3 through 5.
Press the Custom button when you’ve
finished.
