The TV Remote Control Will Not
Work Accessory-Device Functions

Ensure that the functions you want to use have been learned by M-Link

.

These could be functions such as FF/FORWARD, REW/REVERSE, PAUSE,
EJECT, SCAN NEXT, SCAN PREV., or others, depending on the device.

ITR/REC—a VCR tape must be inserted and rewound in the VCR
player, and the VCR must be in standby mode. The macro may not work
for an accessory device that is not turned ON by the POWER/STBY button
on the device’s remote control.

• For the PERSONAL macro button to work, you must program the macro

steps. See “Programming Your Personal Macro” on page 17.

• Ensure that the source inputs (CVI, AV2, AV3, for example) to which you’ve

connected accessory devices match with the sources you chose in the
onscreen menu during setup.

• You may need to delete a device that is not responding and set it up with

M-Link

again. See the sections “Deleting Accessory Devices from the

M-Link

System” (page 15) and “Setting up a New or Multibrand Accessory

Device” (page 10). When you have M-Link

learn an accessory-device

function, remember to ensure that the button you are pressing on the accesso-
ry device’s remote control matches the highlighted function in the M-Link

LEARN menu.

• Ensure that you have had M-Link

at least learn the remote functions that are

necessary for the basic operation of each new or multibrand device
(POWER/STBY, PLAY, and STOP, for example).
