Adjusting the Settings

Changing other device settings

1 On the screen ‘Set Up A/V Devices’, select a device and choose Edit.

The ‘Modify a Device’ screen will appear.

2 Choose Device Info.

The ‘Modify Device Details’ screen will
appear.

The Device Info Wizard will guide you through a
number of settings for the device that you have
selected. Choose OK to start the wizard.

Before proceeding with the wizard you can also
modify the IR control delays: different devices
of different brands have different timings for reacting when you turn on the device,
switch channels and select input. Normally the timing of these actions is automatically
defined during the initial setup. In the unusual event that this fails, you can edit the
delays manually. To do so, proceed as follows:

1 Choose Control Delays.

The ‘Control Delay Settings’ screen will
appear.

2 To edit the delays, click on the field.
