Channel Control Punch-Through
The AVR’s remote may be programmed to oper-
ate so that the channel control function for either
the TV, cable or satellite receiver used in your sys-
tem may be used in conjunction with one of the
other devices controlled by the remote. For exam-

may wish to change channels on a cable box or
satellite receiver without having to change the
device selected by the AVR or the remote. To pro-

Resetting the Remote Memory
As you add components to your home-theater
system, occasionally you may wish to totally
reprogram the remote control without the con-
fusion of any commands, macros or ”Punch-
Through“ programming that you may have done.
To do this, it is possible to reset the remote to
the original factory defaults and command codes
by following these steps. Note, however, that
once the remote is reset, all commands or codes
that you have entered will be erased and will
need to be re-entered:
1. Press any of the Input Selector buttons
4
and the O button
H
at the same time until
the Program/SPL Indicator
2
begins to flash
amber.
2. Press the 3 button
H
three times.
3. The red LED under the Input Selector
4
will
go out and the Program/SPL Indicator
2
will
stop flashing and turn green.
4. The Program/SPL Indicator
2
will remain
green until the remote is reset. Note that this may
take a while, depending on how many commands
are in the memory and need to be erased.
5. When the Program/SPL Indicator
2
goes
out, the remote has been reset to the factory
settings.
