Controlling Other Components —Continued
The AV controller’s remote controller can learn the com-
mands of other remote controllers. By transmitting, for
example, the Play command from your CD player’s
remote controller, the remote controller can learn it, and
then transmit the exact same command when its Play [
]
button is pressed in the CD remote mode.
This is useful when you’ve entered the appropriate remote
control code (page 116) but some buttons don’t work as
expected.
Notes:
• The following buttons cannot learn new commands:
REMOTE MODE, MACRO [1], [2], [3], TV CH [+]/[–
], Re-EQ, LIGHT.
• When you want to learn the command from your TV’s
Power button, select the TV remote control mode and
use the remote controller’s [STANDBY] button to learn
the command. In the TV remote control mode, the
remote controller’s [STANDBY] and TV [
] but-
tons are linked, so using the [STANDBY] button to
learn the command will mean that you can also use the
TV [
] button to turn your TV on or off in TV
remote control mode.
• When you want to learn the commands from your TV’s
Channel Up and Down buttons, select the TV remote
control mode and use the remote controller’s CH [+/–]
button (left to the [ENTER] button) to learn the com-
mands. In the TV remote control mode, the remote con-
troller’s CH [+/–] and TV CH [+]/[–] buttons are linked,
so using the CH [+/–] button to learn these commands
will mean that you can also use the TV CH [+]/[–] but-
tons to change channels in TV remote control mode.
• The remote controller can learn approximately 70 to 90
commands, although this will be less if commands that
use a lot of memory are learned.
• Remote controller buttons such as Play, Stop, Pause,
and so on are preprogrammed with commands for con-
trolling Onkyo CD players, cassette decks, and DVD
players. However, they can learn new commands, and
you can restore the preprogrammed commands at any
time by resetting the remote controller (see page 117).
• To overwrite a previously learned command, repeat this
procedure.
• Only commands from infrared remote controllers can
be learned.
• When the remote controller’s batteries expire, all
learned commands will be lost and will have to be
learned all over again, so don’t discard your other
remote controllers.

MODE button for the mode in
