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 via your receiver (or amplifier).
Even if you are operating a \'ideoT»r audio component, this feature
enables you to control the volume of your TV or receiver without
first having to press the Commander's TV or RECEIVER button.

For example, to control the volume for your VCR channels, you
don't need to press the TV button.
* If you set up a VCR, a cable box, a DBS tuner or a LD player, the
Commander controls the TV's volume. If you set up a CD player, a tape
deck, an MD deck or a DAT deck, the Commander controls the
receiver's (or amplifier's) volume.
Changing the Factory Preset of the Volume Control
If your video components are connected to an audio system, you
probably hear your TV or VCR's sound from the loudspeakers via
your receiver (or amplifier), not from your TV speakers. In this case,
you need to change the factory preset so that you can control the
volume of your video components without first having to switch to
the receiver. To change the factory preset of the volume control,
follow the procedures below.
You can change this either before or after you set up the Commander
to work with your component.
1 Press the SET button with a bail-point pen tip etc., and release it.

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 have 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.
