Renaming Individual KeysThanks to the programming flexibility of the AVRremote, an individual button on the remote may beassigned a feature or function that is different from thename that appears as the factory default when thebutton is pressed. However, with the Rename Keyfunction it is possible to rename almost any button onthe remote so that when the button is pressed you willsee a more descriptive or appropriate name displayed.To rename a specific button on the remote, followthese steps. For this example, we will show you how torename the DSP Surround Mode Selector 6,which is normally not used when DVD is selected, sothat it reads ZOOM in the remote’s display.1. Press and hold the Program Button O forabout three seconds while the message shownin Figure 17 appears in the remote’s LCDInformation Display 2. Release the buttonwhen the red light under the Set Button qappears.2. The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure 16),will appear in the LCD display and the Set Buttonq will remain illuminated in red. Press the⁄ /¤ Navigation Button o until RENAMEappears on the bottom line of the LCD screen, asshown in Figure 68.3. At the next menu screen press the ⁄ /¤Navigation Button o until RENAME KEYappears on the bottom line of the LCD screen, asshown in Figure 71. Press the Set Button qto continue.Figure 714. The next display screen (Figure 72) is whereyou select the device within which the key to berenamed exists. Press the ⁄ /¤ NavigationButtons o until the name of the base deviceappears. In our example, since we want to renamea button within the DVD device memory, DVDshould appear in the lower line of the LCD. Whenthe desired device name appears, press the SetButton q.Figure 725. At the next menu screen you will select the firstbutton within the device to be renamed, asinstructed in the display shown in Figure 73.Select the button by simply pressing it on theremote.Figure 736. Depending on whether or not the button pressedalready has a named function within the deviceselected, one of two things will happen.a. If the button to be renamed already has a pre-programmed, or previously renamed title in theremote’s memory, you will see that name onthe top line of the LCD display, and a blinkingblock cursor will appear on the far left side ofthe bottom line of the display, as shown inFigure 74.Figure 74b. If the button to be renamed does not have afunction in the device selected, the top line ofthe LCD screen will be blank, and a blinkingblock cursor will appear on the far left sideof the bottom line of the display, as shown inFigure 75.Figure 757. To enter the new name for the key, press theNumeric Keys A. The letters above thenumbered buttons indicate which letters or sym-bols will appear when the button is pressed duringthe renaming process. The first press of the but-ton will enter the first character shown, subse-quent presses of the same button will change thedisplay to the other letters above that numberedkey. For example, since the first letter we need torename the Tone button to Zoom is a “Z,” so youwould locate the “Z” above the “9” button, andpress the button four times. The first press showsa “W,” the subsequent presses step through theother letters available until the “Z” appears.Consult the table on this page to see whichcharacters are available by pressing a particularbutton.8. After you enter the first letter of the new devicename, there are three options for entering thenext character:a. To enter a letter that requires a different numerickey to be pressed, simply press that button.The cursor will automatically move to the nextposition and the first letter accessed by the newbutton will appear. Following our example, thenext letter needed is an “O,” so you would pressthe “6” button once.b. To enter a letter that uses the same numerickey, you must first press the › NavigationButton o to move the blinking cursor blockto the next position. Then press the NumericKey A as required to enter the desired letter.This is the way you would enter the second “O”in the word ZOOM, and again for the letter “M.”c. To enter a blank space, press the › NavigationButton o twice. The first press will move thecursor to the right, and the second press willmove the cursor one more space to the right,leaving a blank space between the last letterand the next one.9. Repeat Steps 7 and 8 as needed to completeentering the needed letters, numbers, charactersand spaces.10. When the text entry is complete, press the SetButton q. The new name will be entered intothe remote’s memory, replacing the default name.11. At this point you have two options:a. If you wish to program an additional key withinthe same device, press the Set Button q asinstructed by the bottom line of the LCD displayreading ANOTHER KEY. The remote willreturn to the SELECT A KEY menu optionas shown in Step 6. Repeat the instructions inSteps 6 though 11 to rename the next key.b. If you have no additional keys to rename, pressthe ⁄ Navigation Button o once so thatthe menu screen displays EXIT on the bottomline of the display. Press the Set Button qto return the remote to normal operation.NOTES ON RENAMING KEYS:• Renaming a key does not change its function. Youmay change the function of an individual key bylearning a new code into the remote. See page 41for more information.• When a key is renamed it will only apply to thespecific device selected in Step 4. The same keymay be renamed as needed for each individualdevice with which it is used.Resetting the RemoteDepending on the way in which the remote has beenprogrammed, there may be a situation where you wishto totally erase all changes that have been made tothe remote and return it to the factory defaults. Youmay do that by following the steps shown below, butremember that once the remote is reset, ALL changesthat have been made, including programming for usewith other devices, learned keys, macros, punch-through settings and key names, will be erased andD I S C S K I PS E L E C T A K E YS E L E C T A D E V I C ED V DR E N A M ER E N A M E K E Y48 CONFIGURING THE REMOTECONFIGURING THE REMOTE
