PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE 35

The AVR 3000’s remote may be programmed to
operate so that the channel control function for
either the TV, cable or satellite receiver used in
your system may be used in conjunction with one
of the other devices controlled by the remote. For
example, while using and controlling the VCR,
you may wish to change channels on a cable box
or satellite receiver without having to change the
device selected by the AVR 3000 or the remote.
To program the remote for Channel Control
Punch-Through, follow these steps:

1. Press the Input Selector button 

4 for the

device you wish to have the channel control asso-
ciated with and the Mute button 

 at the

same time until the red light illuminates under the
Input Selector

4 and the Program

2 flashes amber.

2. Press the Volume Down button 

".The

2 will stop flashing and

stay amber.

3. Press and release the AVR

5 or Input

Selector button 

4 for the device that will be

used to change the channels. The Program
Indicator

2 will blink green three times and

then go out to confirm the data entry.

Example: To control the channels using your TV
while the remote is set to control the VCR, first
press the VID 1/VCR Input Selector button 

4

and the Mute button 

 at the same time. Next,

release them and press the Volume Down but-
ton 

", followed by the VID 2/TV 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 example
above. However, press the VID 1/VCR Input
Selector in Steps 1 and 3.

The AVR 3000’s remote may be programmed to
operate so that the Transport Control Functions
L (Play, Stop, Fast Forward, Rewind, Pause and
Record) for a VCR, DVD or CD will operate in con-
junction with one of the other devices controlled
by the remote. For example, while using and con-
trolling the TV, you may wish to start or stop your
VCR or DVD without having to change the device
selected 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 device

you wish to have the channel control associated
with and the Mute button 

 at the same time

until the red light illuminates, under the Input
Selector

4 and the Program Indicator 2

flashes amber.

2. Press the Play button 

L.The Program

2 will stop flashing and stay amber.

3. Press and release the AVR

5 or Input

Selector button 

4 for the device that will be

used to change the channels. The Program
Indicator

2 will blink green three times and

then go out to confirm the data entry.

Example: To control the transport of a CD player
while the remote is set to control the TV, press the
VID 2/TV Input Selector button 

4and the

Mute button 

 at the same time. Next, release

them and press the Play button

L, followed

by 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 example
above. However, press the VID 2/TV Input
Selector in Steps 1 and 3.

NOTE: Before programming the remote for
Volume, Channel or Transport Punch-Through,
make certain that any programming needed for
the specific TV, CD, DVD, Cable or Satellite
Receivers has been completed.

As you add components to your home-theater sys-
tem, occasionally you may wish to totally repro-
gram the remote control without the confusion of
any commands, macros or ”Punch-Through“ pro-
gramming that you may have done. To do this, it is
possible to reset the remote to the original factory
defaults and command codes by following these
steps. Note, however, that once the remote is
reset, all commands or codes that you have
entered will be erased and will need to be re-
entered:

1. Press any of the Input Selector buttons 

4

and the ”O“ button 

G at the same time until

the Program Indicator 

2 begins to flash

amber.

2. Press the ”3“ button 

G three times.

3. The red LED under the Input Selector

4 will

go out and the Program Indicator 

2 will stop

flashing and turn green.

4. The Program Indicator 

2 will remain green

until the remote is reset. Note that this may take a
while, depending on how many commands are in
the memory and need to be erased.

5. When the Program Indicator 

2 goes out,

the remote has been reset to the factory settings.
