Controlling the Volume of Video
Components Connected to an Audio
System
The Commander is factory preset based on the assumption that you
hear the sound of your video components from your TV's speakers,
and that you hear the sound of your audio components from the
loudspeakers connected to your receiver (or amplifier).
Factory Setting:
Position of the slide switch Controls the volume of
VISUAL
TV TV
VCR TV
CABLE* TV
AVI/DBS* TV
AUDIO
AMP Receiver (or amplifier)
TAPE* Receiver (or amplifier) on the
AMP position
AV2- Receiver (or amplifier) on the
AMP position
CD* Receiver (or amplifier) on the
AMP position
” If you assign an audio component on the CABLE, AV1/DBS, TAPE, AV2 or CD
position, you can control the volume of the receiver (or amplifier) on the AMP
position. ]f you assign video components ©n these-positions, you can control
the volume of the T\^
Thus you can control the volume of your TV or receiver (or
amplifier) while operating a video or audio component without first
having to change the
VISUAL/AUDIO selector and the slide switch to
TV or AMP position. For example, to control the volume for your
VCR channels, you don't need to change the slide switch to the TV
positign.
However, if your video components are connected to an audio
system, you probably hear your TV's or VCR's sound from the
loudspeakers connected to your receiver (or amplifier), not from
your TV speakers. In this case, you need to change the factory setting
so that you can control the volume of your video components
without first having to switch to the receiver (or amplifier).
To change the factory setting for the volume control, follow the
procedures below.
Note
This feature is effective only when a receiver or amplifier is set up on
the AMP position. You cannot control the volume of a receiver (or
amplifier) set up on CABLE, AV1/DBS, TAPE, AV2 or CD position
while operating a component of another position.

3 Press the VOL+ button.
4 Press the ENTER button.
The volume control setting is changed to
"Receiver/amplificr." You can control the
volume of the receiver (or amplifier) of the
AMP position while selecting any component.
Notes
• If you are using more than one receiver (or amplifier) and have set
it on the CABLE, AV1/DBS, TAPE, AV2 or CD position, from those '
positions you cannot control the volume of the receiver (or
amplifier) of the
AMP position.
• If you change the setting of the AMP position to a component other
than a receiver or amplifier, the volume control setting of video
components will return to "TV" even if you have changed the
factory preset volume control. In this case, you will not be able to
control the volume from audio components other than a receiver
or amplifier.
To reset to factory preset volume control
in step 3 above, press VOL- instead.
Operating a Component
1 Make sure that the VISUAL/AUDIO selector and
the slide switch is set to the position that
corresponds to your desired component.
2 Point the Commander directly at the component.
3 Press the button for the function you want to use.
See "Remote Button Descriptions" for complete descriptions of the
buttons on the Commander.
Notes on Using the Remote Commander
Basically, use this Commander in the same way as the Commanders
supplied with your components.
• Using this Commander will not increase the functions of your
components. The functions of the Commander are limited to the
functions of the components themselves. For example, if your TV
does not hav’e a muting function, the
MUTING button on this
Commander will not function with your TV.
• Some functions of the component may not work with this
Commander.
• If your cable box can control volume, be sure to set its volume
switch to a medium position. If the volume on the cable box is
turned down completely, you will not be able to adjust your TV's
volume with the Commander.
Troubleshooting
If you have problems setting up or using the Commander;
• When setting up the Commander, carefully go through the procedures
described in "Setting the Code." If the code that's listed first for your
component doesn't work, try all the codes for your component - in the order
in which they're listed. If all the codes fail to work (or if your component is
not listed in this manual), try using the procedures in "Searching for the
Correct Code."
• Check that you're aiming the Commander directly at the component, and that
there are no obstructions between the Commander and the component.
• Make sure the batteries you're using are not worn out, and that they're
inserted correctly.
• Check that your desired component is selected with the VISUAL/AUDIO
selector and the slide switch of the Remote Commander.
• Check that the component has infrared remote capability. For example, if
your component didn't come with a remote commander, it probably isn't
capable of being controlled*by a remote commander.
• If your video components are connected to an audio system, make sure
you've set up the Commander as described in "Controlling the Volume of
Video Components Connected to an Audio System."
• Should any problem persist, reset the Commander to the factory setting by
pressing the POWER, TV/VIDEO and VOL- buttons simultaneously-
