PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE 35Channel Control Punch-ThroughThe AVR 3000’s remote may be programmed tooperate so that the channel control function foreither the TV, cable or satellite receiver used inyour system may be used in conjunction with oneof the other devices controlled by the remote. Forexample, while using and controlling the VCR,you may wish to change channels on a cable boxor satellite receiver without having to change thedevice selected by the AVR 3000 or the remote.To program the remote for Channel ControlPunch-Through, follow these steps:1. Press the Input Selector button 4 for thedevice you wish to have the channel control asso-ciated with and the Mute button at thesame time until the red light illuminates under theInput Selector 4 and the ProgramIndicator 2 flashes amber.2. Press the Volume Down button ". TheProgram Indicator 2 will stop flashing andstay amber.3. Press and release the AVR 5 or InputSelector button 4 for the device that will beused to change the channels. The ProgramIndicator 2 will blink green three times andthen go out to confirm the data entry.Example: To control the channels using your TVwhile the remote is set to control the VCR, firstpress the VID 1/VCR Input Selector button 4and the Mute button at the same time. Next,release them and press the Volume Down but-ton ", followed by the VID 2/TV InputSelector button 4.NOTE: To remove the Channel Control Punch-Through and return the remote to its original con-figuration, repeat the steps shown in the exampleabove. However, press the VID 1/VCR InputSelector in Steps 1 and 3.Transport Control Punch-ThroughThe AVR 3000’s remote may be programmed tooperate so that the Transport Control FunctionsL (Play, Stop, Fast Forward, Rewind, Pause andRecord) for a VCR, DVD or CD will operate in con-junction with one of the other devices controlledby the remote. For example, while using and con-trolling the TV, you may wish to start or stop yourVCR or DVD without having to change the deviceselected by the AVR 3000 or the remote. To pro-gram the remote for Transport Control Punch-Through, follow these steps:1. Press the Input Selector 4 for the deviceyou wish to have the channel control associatedwith and the Mute button at the same timeuntil the red light illuminates, under the InputSelector 4 and the Program Indicator 2flashes amber.2. Press the Play button L. The ProgramIndicator 2 will stop flashing and stay amber.3. Press and release the AVR 5 or InputSelector button 4 for the device that will beused to change the channels. The ProgramIndicator 2 will blink green three times andthen go out to confirm the data entry.Example: To control the transport of a CD playerwhile the remote is set to control the TV, press theVID 2/TV Input Selector button 4and theMute button at the same time. Next, releasethem and press the Play button L, followedby the CD Input Selector button 4.NOTE: To remove the Channel Control Punch-Through and return the remote to its original con-figuration, repeat the steps shown in the exampleabove. However, press the VID 2/TV InputSelector in Steps 1 and 3.NOTE: Before programming the remote forVolume, Channel or Transport Punch-Through,make certain that any programming needed forthe specific TV, CD, DVD, Cable or SatelliteReceivers has been completed.Resetting the Remote MemoryAs you add components to your home-theater sys-tem, occasionally you may wish to totally repro-gram the remote control without the confusion ofany commands, macros or ”Punch-Through“ pro-gramming that you may have done. To do this, it ispossible to reset the remote to the original factorydefaults and command codes by following thesesteps. Note, however, that once the remote isreset, all commands or codes that you haveentered will be erased and will need to be re-entered:1. Press any of the Input Selector buttons 4and the ”O“ button G at the same time untilthe Program Indicator 2 begins to flashamber.2. Press the ”3“ button G three times.3. The red LED under the Input Selector 4 willgo out and the Program Indicator 2 will stopflashing and turn green.4. The Program Indicator 2 will remain greenuntil the remote is reset. Note that this may take awhile, depending on how many commands are inthe memory and need to be erased.5. When the Program Indicator 2 goes out,the remote has been reset to the factory settings.Programming the Remote
