Getting the Settings Right
6 Choose Input to make the TV switch to an input. Indicate whether your TV
shows the signal from its tuner (i.e. broadcasted programs) or an input.
Repeat this step until all inputs, including the TV’s internal tuner, have been
added.
Tip You can add inputs with exactly the same name as they are worded on your TV.
You can also choose names of your own choice.
7 Choose Next and indicate which input is currently being displayed.
8 Choose Next.
You will receive a confirmation message when the TV details are successfully
added.
Note Repeat the ‘Set Up Device’ process for all devices that you want to control with
the RC9800i. Make sure also to add media adapters and other connected devices if
you want the RC9800i to control them.
■ Set Up Activities
In ‘Set Up Devices’, you have configured each individual device that you want to control
with the RC9800i. The RC9800i will now collect information on which devices are used
for activities (e.g. Watch a DVD, listen to a CD, etc.). This information will allow the
RC9800i to automate and simplify your listening and viewing experience by means of
Activity-Based Control.
Note If you want to know more about Activities and Activity-Based Control, please read
‘What You Should Know About Activity-Based Control’ on page 12. This background
information is not mandatory for completing the Activity Setup.
In the course of the Activities Setup, all
activities will be configured room by room.
An introductory screen will automatically
appear.
1 Choose Next twice.
The following screen will appear.
2 Check the activities that are relevant for
you (i.e. things that you want to do with
