User manual MERIDIAN AUDIO MSR PLUS

[. . . ] The backlight automatically turns on as soon as you press a key in low light conditions. The MSR+ will have a battery life of over six months under normal conditions; slightly less if you use the backlight frequently. 1 Introduction Installing the batteries The MSR+ is supplied with four AA batteries, and these need to be installed before you can use it. Note: Dispose of used batteries thoughtfully. · Press the tab and remove the battery cover on the back of the MSR+: · Insert the four AA batteries accordingly: · Push the battery cover back into place. Low battery indicator The indicator normally lights up when you press a key. [. . . ] · Hold down 0 and Mute simultaneously for two seconds until the indicator flashes twice and stays lit. · Enter the appropriate device code on the numeric keypad. For example, if your tape deck is a Revox enter 0664. If you entered a valid device code the indicator will turn off and your MSR+ is ready to control the other product. If you entered an incorrect code, or pressed an invalid key, the indicator will flash six times and programming is abandoned. To auto-program · Make sure your other product is switched on and out of standby. · Press the source key you want to use for the product; for example TV. · Hold down 0 and Mute simultaneously until the indicator flashes twice and then stays lit. For some products more than one device code is listed. Try each of the alternative device codes in turn until you find the one that controls your product. To reset the source key to control Meridian products enter the device code 8888. Auto-programming This procedure lets you step through the library of remote controls in the MSR+ until you find the one that switches your product to standby. This is likely to be the correct one for your product. 6 Programming · Enter one of the following codes using the numeric keypad to indicate the type of product you want to control. The indicator should flash once each time you press a key, and then flash twice and stay off when you have entered the code correctly: Product type TV VCR TAPE/MD/CD-R CD Code 1000 2000 4000 5000 Product type SAT/CABLE LD DVD GAME Code 6000 7000 8000 9000 Problems when programming automatically If you reach the end of the device library without finding one that switches off your product the indicator will flash six times. · Press the source key again to resume the search from the beginning. If the other product does not turn off, your product may not be supported by the device library. In this case you will need to program the MSR+ using your product's own remote control as described in Learning commands, page 8. Note: When stepping through the device library, you can use the keys other than Function OFF on the MSR+ to test other commands in the currently selected device. The indicator will flash twice to indicate that the operation has succeeded, and the MSR+ is now ready to control your other product. · To step back through the device library if you overshoot press Mute on the MSR+. For example, for a TV enter 1000. · Point the MSR+ at the product you want to control, hold down Function, and press OFF. Each time you press Function OFF the MSR+ will step to the next device in the library and send the corresponding Power off code to the other product. · As soon as the other product turns off, indicating that this is the correct device, press the same source key again (eg TV) to store the currently selected device. 7 Programming Learning commands The third and most flexible way of programming the MSR+ is to learn from your product's own remote control. [. . . ] The volume A and V, Mute, and OFF keys are dedicated to controlling the Meridian system even when the source key is programmed for another manufacturer's product. To control the television volume or power hold down Function when using the volume or OFF keys. The indicator light does not light up when I press key Try removing and refitting the batteries.
