PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE 29PROGRAMMING THE REMOTENOTE: All programming for the remote codes neededto operate specific devices, such as a TV, DVD, cablebox, satellite receiver or VCR, should be completedbefore programming punch-through commands.Volume Punch-ThroughThe AVR 130’s remote may be programmed to oper-ate the Volume Control and Mute func-tions of either the TV or the AVR 130 in conjunctionwith any of the devices controlled by the remote. Forexample, since the AVR 130 will likely be used as thesound system for TV viewing, you may wish to havethe AVR 130’s volume activated, although the remoteis set to run the TV. Either the AVR 130 or TV volumecontrol may be associated with any of the remote’sdevices. To program the remote for Volume Punch-Through, follow these steps:1. Press the Input Selector e for the unit you willbe using (e.g., TV) when you wish to have VolumePunch-Through to your audio system active and theMute Button at the same time until the redlight appears under the Input Selector e andnote that the Program Indicator c will flashamber.2. Press the Volume Up Button and note thatthe Program Indicator c will stop flashing andstay amber.3. Press either the AVR Selector f or the InputSelector e, depending on which system’svolume control you wish to have attached for thepunch-through mode. The Program Indicator cwill blink green three times and then go out to con-firm the data entry.Example: To have the AVR 130’s volume controlactivated even though the remote is set to controlthe TV, first press the VID2/TV Input Selectore and the Mute Button at the same time.Next, press the Volume Up Button , followedby the AVR Input Selector f.NOTE: Should you wish to return the remote to theoriginal configuration after entering a Volume Punch-Through, you will need to repeat the steps shownabove. However, press the same Input Selector inSteps 1 and 3.Channel Control Punch-ThroughThe AVR 130’s remote may be programmed to operateso that the channel control function for either the TV,cable or satellite receiver used in your system may beused in conjunction with one of the other devices con-trolled by the remote. For example, while using and con-trolling the VCR, you may wish to change channels on acable box or satellite receiver without having to changethe device selected by the AVR 130 or the remote. Toprogram the remote for Channel Control Punch-Through,follow these steps:1. Press the Input Selector Button e for the deviceyou will be using (e.g., VCR) when you wish to haveChannel Punch-Through active and the MuteButton at the same time until the red lightappears under the Input Selector e and theProgram Indicator c flashes amber.2. Press the Volume Down Button . TheProgram Indicator c will stop flashing and stayamber.3. Press and release the Input Selector Button efor the device that will be used to change the chan-nels. The Program Indicator c will blink greenthree times and then go out to confirm the dataentry.Example: To control the channels using your CableBox or Satellite Receiver while the remote is set tocontrol the VCR, first press the VID1/VCR InputSelector Button e and the Mute Buttonat the same time. Next, release them and press theVolume Down Button , followed by theVID2/TV Input Selector Button e.NOTE: To remove the Channel Control Punch-Throughand return the remote to its original configuration, repeatthe steps shown above. However, press the same but-ton in Steps 1 and 3.Transport Control Punch-ThroughThe AVR 130’s remote may be programmed to operateso that the Transport Control Functions ` (Play,Stop, Fast Forward, Rewind, Pause and Record) for aVCR, cassette deck, DVD or CD will operate in conjunc-tion with one of the other devices controlled by theremote. For example, while using and controlling the TV,you may wish to start or stop your VCR without havingto change the device selected by the AVR 130 or theremote. Note, however, that the remote is factory pre-set so that the Transport Controls ` are pro-grammed with the codes for Harman Kardon DVDplayers, and no further programming is required to usea Harman Kardon DVD player when the AVR controlsare active after the AVR Selector f has beenpressed. To program the remote for Transport ControlPunch-Through, follow these steps:1. Press the Input Selector e for the device youwill be using (e.g., TV) when you wish to haveTransport Control Punch-Through active and theMute Button at the same time until the redlight appears under the Input Selector e and theProgram Indicator c flashes amber.2. Press the Play Button `. The ProgramIndicator c will stop flashing and stay amber.3. Press and release the Input Selector Button efor the device whose transport mechanism will becontrolled (e.g., DVD, CD). The Program Indicatorc will blink green three times and then go out toconfirm the data entry.Example: To control the transport of a VCR while theremote is set to control the TV, first press the VID2/TVInput Selector e and the Mute Button at thesame time. Next, release them and press the PlayButton `, followed by the VID1/VCR InputSelector e.NOTE: To remove the Channel Control Punch-Throughand return the remote to its original configuration, repeatthe steps shown above. However, press the same but-ton in Steps 1 and 3.Resetting the Remote MemoryAs you add components to your home theater system,occasionally you may wish to totally reprogram theremote control without the confusion of any commands,macros or ”Punch-Through“ programming that you mayhave done. To do this, it is possible to reset the remoteto the original factory defaults and command codes byfollowing these steps. Note, however, that once theremote is reset, all commands or codes that you haveentered will be erased and will need to be reentered:1. Press any of the Input Selector Buttons e andthe “O” Button r at the same time until theProgram Indicator c begins to flash amber.2. Press the “3” Button r three times.3. The red LED under the Input Selector e will goout and the Program Indicator c will stop flash-ing and turn green.4. The Program Indicator c will remain green untilthe remote is reset. Note that this may take a while,depending on how many commands are in thememory and need to be erased.5. When the Program Indicator c goes out, theremote has been reset to the factory settings.404037403740374037404037
