Erasing All the Learned Commands For a
Single Device
To erase all the commands for a single
device, follow these steps:

1. Press the 

b

for the desired device (e.g., CD, TV,

VCR etc.) and the 

button 

i

at the

same time until the LED under the

turns red

and the 

turns and remains orange.

2. Press and hold the 

button 

p

.

The 

will flash red five times, then the red
LED under the 

b

will turn off and the

will

flash green twice, and then turn to a
steady orange color. The red LED under
the 

b

will turn back on.

3. Now release the 

button 

p

.

4. At this point, all the learned codes for the

device have been erased. To complete the
process, press and hold the 

b

and the 

button 

p

at the same time until the

flashes orange twice and then goes out,
and the red LED under the 

turns off.

Erasing All Learned Commands
To erase ALL commands that have been
learned to all buttons in the remote, follow
the instruction shown below. Note that this
will erase all commands for the CD, TAPE,
SAT, TV, VCR, CBL and AUX devices, but it
will not erase the commands for the
AVR45RDS, itself and all preprogrammed
commands for all devices.

To erase all learned commands, press and
hold the 

b

and the 

button 

p

at the same

time until the 

flashes red ten times, then green

once and orange once. When the

stops

flashing and turns off, all learned
commands have been erased from the
AVR45RDS remote control.

The AVR45RDS remote is equipped 
with a soft back light that will illuminate
the remote’s buttons so that they will be
more visible in the darkened room
environment common to home theater
settings.

To illuminate the back light, simply press
the 

button 

p

. The back light will

remain on for eight seconds and then go
out. The light will remain on for an
additional eight seconds each time any
button is pressed on the remote while the
light is already on.

Note that excessive use of the back light
will shorten battery life.

The AVR45RDS’s remote may be
programmed to operate the 

z

and 

button 

d

from

either the TV or the AVR to operate in
conjunction with any of the eight devices
controlled by the remote. For example,
since the AVR45RDS will likely be used as
the sound system for TV viewing, you may
wish to have the AVR’s volume activated
when the remote is set to run the TV. Either
the AVR or TV volume control may be
associated with any of the remote’s devices.

To program the remote for Volume Punch-
Through, follow these steps:

1. Press the 

b

for the device you wish to have

associated with the volume control
(e.g., TV, SAT, etc.) and the 

button 

d

at the same time until the

red light illuminates under the 

.

2. Press the 

button 

z

.

3. Press either the 

a

or the 

b

,

depending on which system’s volume
control you wish to have attached for
the punch-through mode. Note that the
red light under the 

will blink twice and then go

out to confirm the data entry.
