1. Using the example from the previous page for

configuring an input, repeat steps 1 through 5.


2. When “CUSTOM” appears in the display press

the “OK” button. The display will show

“……………………………” .


3. Rotate the volume control clockwise to scroll

through the 26 letters of the English alphabet,

miscellaneous symbols including the space
character. When you see the letter, number or

symbol you wish to use, press “OK” to select it

and then repeat this step for the next character.

4. You must assign all 8 characters when creating

a custom input label; If your label requires only

5 characters, you will need to input a blank
space for the remaining 3 characters. Note: If

The MOON 740P is equipped with a rear mounted

IR input for use with aftermarket wired infrared

remote control receivers. In the event that you want

control the MOON 740P with a universal remote

control and NOT the one included (FRM-3), you can

change the RC-5 remote control system codes. This
procedure is recommended when you have a large

amplifiers and/or preamplifiers that operate on the

RC-5 standard and you need to make each

up to 4 components. Before making the following

change, you should have a basic understanding

how to program a universal remote control. The
following example shows how to change the IR

codes that the MOON 740P will recognize:
