Programming Remote Control “Punch-Through” Commands
after programming the remote to control an auxiliary (aux) component, you can also 
program  it  so  it  will  control  the  aux  component’s  channel  up/down  and  transport 
functions (play, pause, etc.) even when the remote is not in the aux-control mode. for 
example, if the remote is programmed to operate your tV in the aux control mode, you 
can also have the tV’s channel +/– functions “punch through” and operate even when 
the remote is in the Disc, radio or ipod control modes.
1. press and hold the Input button for the main device the remote will be operating. the 
button will light up, go dark and then light up again. release the button.
2. Select the type of punch-through programming.
a) for “punch-through” channel control, press the channel up button.
b) for “punch-through” transport control, press the play button.
3. press the aux button. the original Input button will flash to confirm.
you can repeat Step 1 – Step 3 for any of the remote’s Input buttons (aux, radio, etc.). 
note:  “punch-through”  channel  and  transport  commands  will  override  the  existing 
commands for those buttons in the source modes you program.
to undo “punch-through” programming, follow the same steps as above, but press the 
same Input button in Step 1 and Step 3.
Using the Remote After it is Programmed

mode, and it will control the auxiliary component(s) via the codes you have programmed 
into it.

mode, press any of the other Input buttons or the Home button.
