Use Any Remote to Control your DHT-T100
It’s easy to “teach” DHT-T100 to respond to nearly any conventional IR (infrared) remote, so that you may continue to use your
favorite television or cable/satellite. You may prefer to teach DHT-T100 only selected commands, to avoid unintentional
operations and subsequent confusion among some household members. Some DHT-T100 owners teach only Volume Up/
Down and Mute, relying on the DHT-T100’s front panel, or DHT-T100’s own remote, for other functions.
Learning commands (using Volume up as an example):
1 Press-and-hold the front panel’s Learn button for 3 seconds; its key LED will flash slowly.
2 Now press the front-panel Volume up key; the Volume up key LED will also commence flashing slowly, in sync with the
Learn LED.
3 Within 60 seconds, aim the “source” remote (for example, the television handset) from approximately 0.5m directly
toward DHT-T100’s front panel, and press its Volume up key 4 times in slow succession; both flashing DHT-T100 LEDs
will now light steadily for 3 seconds, indicating a successful “learn.”
Unlearning commands
1 Press-and-hold the front panel’s Learn button for 3 seconds; its LED will flash slowly.
2 Press the button you want to clear; the button's LED will also flash slowly, in sync with the Learn LED.
3 Press the learn button within 60 seconds; both LEDs will flash rapidly for 3 seconds. The command has been unlearned.
Seven of the eight DHT-T100 front-panel buttons can be taught to respond to an external remote. Simply repeat this three-
step process for as many of the other DHT-T100 commands (each associated with a front-panel button) as you wish.
Note: Rapid blinking of the two LEDs indicates a failed “learn”. Press any other front-panel or DHT-T100 remote key to reset
learning, and start again. See the Troubleshooting section for tips to help you successfully teach DHT-T100 to recognize the
signals from your remote control.
Once you have programmed DHT-T100 to respond to your “everyday” remote controller, you may wish to put away the DHT-
T100 remote for safekeeping. If you do, we recommend that you remove the battery, and wrap it in a slip of paper, masking-
tape, or similar to prevent accidental discharge and put it and the DHT-T100 remote someplace safe.
Some remotes can learn by pressing the remote key several times (up to four times)
Troubleshooting DHT-T100
DHT-T100 Does not power on
• Is the DHT-T100 plugged into a proven-live wall outlet? Try a lamp or other known-good appliance. Avoid using outlets
that are connected to switches or dimmers.
No television sound
• Is DHT-T100’s volume turned up? (Don’t laugh; we do this one ourselves all the time.)
• Is DHT-T100 muted (if so, the front panel Mute key LED will be flashing).
• Is the DHT-T100 set to the correct source? A flashing Bluetooth® key LED on the front panel indicates DHT-T100 is trying
to “pair” to Bluetooth; press the Television Input key to interrupt this and switch to television sound.
• Is the audio source a volume-controlled television or cable/satellite box output? If so, you must turn up the volume
of the television or cable/satellite box to send adequate signal-level to DHT-T100. (For this reason it is best to choose
fixed-level outputs where possible; some televisions have separate physical outputs, other employ on-screen menu
settings to manage this.)
• Check connections: remember that DHT-T100 auto-prioritizes multiple incoming signals, selecting optical-digital,
coaxi-
al-digital, and analog-mini plug, in that order. Confirm that the television is routing audio to the appropriate output;
there may be TV-menu settings to manage this.
• Check the signal format. Dolby Digital (5.1ch), PCM (32kHz-96kHz) is supported.
Distorted sound from the DHT-T100
• If the signal source is a volume-controlled output, turn it down a couple of steps from maximum.
• If using the analog stereo input, check the rear-panel Input Sensitivity switch setting (see page 15).
• Check the signal source to be sure the distortion is not originating there.
• If DHT-T100’s volume is set to its maximum, turn it down a few steps.
