2 62 62 62 62 6USING THE HTR 2 REMOTE CONTROL• Controls up to 8 devices.• 44 function keys.• Learns up to 352 commands.• Records up to 44 macros with a maximum of 64 commands each.• Configurable punch-through.• Key illumination with programmable timeout.• Upgradable.• Contains pre-programmed library of NAD remote codes.The NAD HTR 2 is ready to operate the T 753 receiver right out of the box, but it is really eight remotes inone. Each of the 8 Device Selector keys at the top of the handset can call up a new “page” of remote-control codes to be transmitted by the remaining 44 keys. You may “teach” codes from any infrared-remote-controlled component, regardless of brand, to any or all of these. Obviously, the most logical system is thatyou teach the codes from your DVD player to the [DVD] Device Selector “page,” your television’s codes tothe [TV] “page,” and so on, but there is no required scheme: You may load any commands to any key onany page (see “Learning Codes From Other Remotes,” below).The HTR 2 is already preprogrammed with a full complement of commands for the T 753 receiver on its[AMP] Device Selector page, and as well as with library commands to operate most NAD-brand DVD, CD, orTAPE components on the corresponding Device Selector “pages.” These default commands are permanent:Even if you teach the HTR 2 new commands to take their place, the underlying library commands remain inplace and can easily be recalled should you add an NAD component to your system later (see “DeleteMode”, below).NOTE: For use with the T 753, it should not be necessary to re-program any keys on the HTR 2 [AMP]page. However, in order for the HTR 2 to control your specific NAD-brand components you may need toload one or more different code-libraries; see “Loading Code Libraries,” below.CONTROLLING THE T 753CONTROLLING THE T 753CONTROLLING THE T 753CONTROLLING THE T 753CONTROLLING THE T 753The HTR 2 is divided into two main sections. Eight Device Selector keys at the top—[AMP], [DVD,] [TV,] andso on—set the handset’s remaining keys to a “page” of commands to control a particular component. ADevice Select key determines only what component the HTR 2 will command; it does not perform anyfunction on the receiver. All of the remaining keys are function keys that can “learn” control codes fromvirtually any infrared remote controller, allowing you to teach the codes of your equipment, regardless ofbrand, to the HTR 2.However, the HTR 2 is already preprogrammed to operate the T 753. All of the function keys on the [AMP]Device Selector “page” perform T 753 functions. (The HTR 2 can also command many other NAD compo-nents, from its [DVD,] [CD,] [TUNER,] and [TAPE] pages.)It is important to note that certain HTR 2 keys perform different functions depending on the selected DeviceSelector “page.” The color of the Device Selector key-labeling corresponds to the labeling of the functionkeys. Most centrally, the red [AMP] Device Selector “page” corresponds to the red input-select labelingadjacent to the numeric keys: When the HTR 2’s [AMP] Device Selector page is active, these keys select thereceiver inputs. Similarly, the purple [DVD] Device Selector “page” corresponds to several purple labels, thegreen [TV] page to green labels, and so on.LEARNING CODES FROM OTHER REMOTESLEARNING CODES FROM OTHER REMOTESLEARNING CODES FROM OTHER REMOTESLEARNING CODES FROM OTHER REMOTESLEARNING CODES FROM OTHER REMOTESBegin by positioning the HTR 2 “nose-to-nose” with the source remote so the two devices’ infrared windowsare about 2 inches apart.• Enter Learning Mode: On the HTR 2, simultaneously press-and-hold for 3 seconds both a Device Selectorkey and the [•] “record” key (just below the [DISP] key), until the Learn LED at the center of the HTR 2turns steady green.• Press the HTR 2’s function key you wish to teach a command; the Learn LED will turn amber.• Press-and-hold the function key on the source remote: The HTR 2’s Learn LED will flicker amber for asecond or two, then turn solid green. The command is learned.• Press the HTR 2’s Device Selector key again to exit the learning mode.If the Learn LED does not flicker amber you may need to vary the distance between the remotes.If the Learn LED turns red rather than green, that particular command of that source remote commandcould not be learned.Cancel Operation:You can cancel configuring a key, by pressing the active Device Selector key before the learn is complete;the Learn LED will turn red.Example: Learning “DVD Pause”:Position the HTR 2 and your DVD player’s remote as described above.• On the HTR 2, simultaneously press-and-hold [DVD] and [•]; the Learn LED turns steady green.• Press the HTR 2’s [ || ] (pause) key; the Learn LED turns amber.• Press-and-hold the DVD player’s remote’s pause key; the HTR 2’s Learn LED flickers amber and thenturns solid green. The command is learned.• Press [DVD] again to exit the learning mode.SPECIFICASPECIFICASPECIFICASPECIFICASPECIFICATIONSTIONSTIONSTIONSTIONS
