The A Device Mode button configures the CR102 to

control the AVR600/AV888. Pressing this button does

not affect the currently selected input on the AVR600/

AV888.
IMPORTANT: The CR102 must also be in

AMp

Device

Mode to control the following sources:

phono

,

MCh

(multichannel analogue),

AuX

,

nET

(optional network

audio),

uSB

,

ipoD

(for use with the optional Arcam

rLead or rDock).
However to control the internal Tuner in the AVR600

(AM/FM/DAB or Sirius if fitted), the CR102 must first

be in

Device Mode (see later).

The functionality of the CR102 is context sensitive for

the internal sources and is described in the following

table.
