REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONSThe AVR 247 remote is capable of controlling 11 devices, including theAVR itself and an iPod docked in the optional The Bridge accessory.During the installation process, you may program the codes for eachof your source components into the remote. Each time you wish to usethe codes for any component, first press the Selector button for thatcomponent. This changes the button functions to the appropriate codesfor that product.NOTE: Several of the Input Selectors are shared between twodevices. The selector button will light in red when the remoteis in the device mode printed on the button, and it will light ingreen for the device mode printed above the button. To switchbetween the two device modes, press the selector twice quicklyin succession. The selector will remain in the last-selected modeuntil the next time you press the selector twice quickly.For example, the first time you press the DVD button, the buttonwill light up in red, indicating that the remote is in DVD mode. Ifyou press another selector, such as the VID3 selector, and thenpress the DVD button again, the DVD button will remain red,indicating the remote is still in DVD mode. Now press the DVDbutton twice quickly. At the first press the button will light red,indicating that the remote is in DVD mode. On the second pressthe button will turn green, indicating that the remote is now in CDmode. If you press a different selector and return to the DVD/CDSelector, you will observe that the remote is still in CD mode.Each Input Selector has been preprogrammed to control certain typesof components, with only the codes specific to each brand and modelchanging, depending on which product code is programmed. Thedevice types programmed into each selector may not be changed.However, you may program the HDMI 1 and 2 Selectors with the DVD,cable/satellite or VCR/PVR device type.DVD: Controls DVD players and recorders.CD: Controls CD players and recorders.Tape: Controls cassette decks.Video 1: Controls VCRs, TiVo® and PVRs.Video 2: Controls cable and satellite television set-top boxes.Video 3: Controls televisions and other video displays.Video 4: Controls televisions and other video displays.HDMI 1 and 2: Each code set controls a source device (VCR/PVR,DVD player or cable/satellite set-top box) connected to one of thesetwo inputs.XM: Controls the AVR functions for XM Satellite Radio.The Bridge/DMP: Controls an iPod docked in The Bridge.For example, if you have inserted a disc in your CD player and youwould like to skip ahead three tracks, but you then find that the volumeis too loud, you would follow this procedure:1. Press the CD Input Selector to switch to the codes that control yourCD player. If the remote is in DVD mode, press the selector twice quicklyto switch to CD mode, indicated by the selector lighting in green.2.

Press the AVR Button so that you can access the Volume Controls.5. Press the Volume Down Button until the volume level is satisfactory.Any given button may have different functions, depending on whichcomponent is being controlled. Some buttons are labeled with thesefunctions. For example, the Sleep and DSP Surround Buttons arelabeled for use as Channel Up/Down Buttons when controlling a televi-sion or cable box. See Table A8 in the appendix for listings of thedifferent functions for each type of component.IR Transmitter Lens: As buttons are pressed on the remote,infrared codes are emitted through this lens. Make sure it is pointingtoward the component being operated.Power On Button: Press this button to turn on the AVR or anotherdevice. The Master Power Switch on the AVR 247’s front panel mustfirst have been switched on.Mute Button: Press this button to mute the AVR 247’s speaker andheadphone outputs temporarily.
