13 MAIN REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONSMain Remote Control FunctionsIMPORTANT NOTE: The AVR 320’s remotemay be programmed to control up to eightdevices, including the AVR 320. Before using theremote, it is important to remember to press theInput Selector Button e that correspondsto the unit you wish to operate. In addition, theAVR 320’s remote is shipped from the factory tooperate the AVR 320 and most Harman KardonCD or DVD players and cassette decks. Theremote is also capable of operating a wide vari-ety of other products using the control codesthat are part of the remote. Before using theremote with other products, follow the instruc-tions on pages 37–41 to program the propercodes for the products in your system.It is also important to remember that many ofthe buttons on the remote take on differentfunctions, depending on the product selectedusing the Device Control Selectors. The descrip-tions shown here primarily detail the functionsof the remote when it is used to operate theAVR 320. (See page 39 for information aboutalternate functions for the remote’s buttons.)a Power Off Button: Press this button toplace the AVR 320 or a selected device in theStandby mode. Note that this will turn off themain room functions, but if the Multiroom sys-tem is activated, it will continue to function.b IR Transmitter Window: Point this win-dow towards the AVR 320 when pressing buttonson the remote to make certain that infrared com-mands are properly received.c Program/SPL Indicator: This three-colorindicator is used to guide you through theprocess of programming the remote or learningcommands from a remote into the AVR 320’sremote code memory and it is also used as alevel indicator when using the remote’s EzSetcapabilities. (See page 24 for more informationon setting output levels, and see page 37 forinformation on programming the remote.)d Power On Button: Press this button toturn on the power to a device selected by press-ing one of the Input Selectors e.e Input Selectors: Pressing one of thesebuttons will perform three actions at the sametime. First, if the AVR 320 is not turned on, thiswill power up the unit. Next, it will select thesource shown on the button as the input to theAVR 320. Finally, it will change the remote con-trol so that it controls the device selected. Afterpressing one of these buttons you must pressthe AVR Selector Button f again to oper-ate the AVR 320’s functions with the remote.f AVR Selector: Pressing this button willswitch the remote so that it will operate theAVR 320’s functions. If the AVR 320 is in theStandby mode, it will also turn the AVR 320 on.g AM/FM Tuner Select: Press this button toselect the AVR 320’s tuner as the listeningchoice. Pressing this button when the tuner isalready in use will select between the AM andFM bands.h 6-Channel/8-Channel Direct Input:Press this button to select the device connectedto the 6-Channel Direct Inputs ª or the 8-Channel Direct Inputs ‚. (See page 33 formore information.)i Test Button: Press this button to beginthe sequence used to calibrate the AVR 320’soutput levels. (See page 24 for more informationon calibrating the AVR 320.)j Sleep Button: Press this button to placethe unit in the Sleep mode. After the timeshown in the display, the AVR 320 will auto-matically go into the Standby mode. Each pressof the button changes the time until turn-off inthe following order:Note that this button is also used to changechannels on your TV when the TV is selected.When the AVR 320 remote is being programmedwith the codes to operate another device, thisbutton is also used in the “Auto Search” process.(See page 37 for more information on program-ming the remote.)k Surround Mode Selector: Press thisbutton to begin the process of changing thesurround mode. After the button has beenpressed, use the ⁄/¤ Buttons n to selectthe desired surround mode. (See page 28 formore information.) Note that this button is alsoused to tune channels when the TV is selectedusing the device Input Selector e.When the AVR 320 remote is being pro-grammed with the codes of another device, thisbutton is also used in the “Auto Search”process. (See page 37 for more information onprogramming the remote.)l Night Mode: Press this button to activatethe Night mode. This mode is available in spe-cially encoded digital sources, and it preservesdialog (center channel) intelligibility at lowvolume levels.m Channel Select Button: This button isused to start the process of setting the AVR 320’soutput levels to an external source. Once this but-ton is pressed, use the ⁄/¤ Buttons n toselect the channel being adjusted, then press theSet Button p, followed by the ⁄/¤ Buttonsn again, to change the level setting. (See page32 for more information.)n ⁄/¤ Buttons: These multipurpose but-tons are used to change or scroll through itemsin the on-screen menus, make configurationsettings such as digital inputs or delay timing,or to select surround modes. When changing asetting, first press the button for the function orsetting to be changed (e.g., press theSurround Mode Selector k to select asoundfield mode or the Digital Select Buttonq to change a digital input) and then pressone of these buttons to scroll through the listof options or to increase or decrease a setting.The sections in this manual describing the indi-vidual features and functions contain specificinformation on using these buttons for eachapplication.o ‹ Button: This button is used to changethe menu selection or setting during some ofthe setup procedures for the AVR 320.p Set Button: This button is used to entersettings into the AVR 320’s memory. It is alsoused in the setup procedures for delay time,speaker configuration and channel output leveladjustment.q Digital Select: Press this button to assignone of the digital inputs *Ó to asource. (See page 29 for more information onusing digital inputs.)r Numeric Keys: These buttons serve as aten-button numeric keypad to enter tuner presetpositions. They are also used to select channelnumbers when TV, Cable or SAT has beenselected on the remote, or to select track num-bers on a CD, DVD or LD player, depending onhow the remote has been programmed.s Tuner Mode: Press this button when thetuner is in use to select between automatictuning and manual tuning.
