To install the batteries: 1 On the back of the Home Producer, press down on the black battery cover near the indentation where the black and silver sections meet and push/slide the cover off (see illustration). 2 Match the + and ­ marks on the batteries to the + and ­ marks in the battery case, then insert the batteries. 3 Slide the battery cover back into place. NOTE: After inserting the batteries, the LCD screen will enter a test mode, which tests each segment of the LCD screen. This process will last for 10 seconds or until any key is pressed, which ever occurs first. 4 5 USING YOUR HOME PRODUCER Features and Functions The illustration below and the chart on the next two pages describe the features and the functions of the Home Producer's keypad. The following keys will always have the same function, regardless of which component you are controlling. [. . . ] 2 The display will then change to [DEL (the DAY or D for Daily or W for WEEKLY) and (the TIME of the Sequence)]. If this is the timed sequence you would like to delete, press SELECT. The display will change to [DELETED] then return to [DEVICE and the TIME]. NOTE: If, at any time during the set up of your timed sequence, a mistake is made, press the ESC key to return to the main display [DEVICE and the TIME]. Then delete the sequence that was incorrect and restart your timed sequence. NOTE: If you have more than one timed sequence saved in the memory of the Home Producer, use the MENU ­ key to scroll through your saved timed sequences until you see the sequence you would like to delete. Once the sequence is displayed on the screen, press SELECT. The display will change to [DELETED] then return to the next available sequence to be deleted. If there are no other sequences to be deleted, then the display will return to [DEVICE and the TIME]. After you have set up a timed sequence, you may want to set up a second sequence that turns everything off after your initial sequence. For the example above, after recording the program from your DSS, you can set up a second sequence to power OFF your DSS and VCR. Just repeat steps 1 through 5 to set up a sequence to power OFF your components. 38 39 REPEATING A SERIES OF KEY PRESSES USING THE MACRO AND MACRO2 KEYS The Home Producer has two Macro keys (MACRO and MACRO2) that will play back a series of key strokes at any time with the press of one key. Each sequence can have up to a maximum of 15 keystrokes. These keys are not mode specific and can be accessed in any mode. For example, to set up a sequence that will turn on devices and turn them to the proper inputs: 1 Press and hold SETUP until the display screen changes from [DEVICE x 2 and the TIME] to [TIMED SEQ]. Press MENU ­ twice until the display reads [CONFIGURE], then press SELECT. The display will then read [THEATR SEL]. x 4 Press MENU ­ four times until the display reads [KEY MACRO]. This will be the key that will play back the series of keystrokes assigned to that key. Begin entering the sequence of keystrokes, up to 15. HOW TO USE THE SHIFT KEY The Home Producer has additional features that can be accessed by using the SHIFT key. They are listed above the keys that they are mapped to. For example, on the transport keys PLAY, REW, FF, STOP, and PAUSE, there are the following features: SLOW, SLOW+, SLOW ­, X2, and EJECT. If you want to eject a tape from your VCR, press: SHIFT + STOP This will eject your tape, as long as your original remote supported this feature. NOTE: Once you have pressed the SHIFT key, Home Producer will remain in the "Shift" mode, as indicated by an [S] on the LCD screen, for 5 seconds after the last key press or until the SHIFT key is pressed again. 2 The following keys have functions that are shifted: CENTER: MENU: SELECT: MUTE: PREV CH: PIP: REW: PLAY: FF: STOP: PAUSE: SHIFT SHIFT SHIFT SHIFT SHIFT SHIFT SHIFT SHIFT SHIFT SHIFT SHIFT + + + + + + + + + + + CENTER = REAR MENU = PROGRAM SELECT = CLEAR MUTE = SLEEP PREV CH = DISPLAY PIP = FREEZE PIP REW = SLOWPLAY = SLOW FF = SLOW + STOP = EJECT PAUSE = X2 or NOTE: When setting up your sequence, you will need to include any keystrokes that would normally be required during regular usage, such as pressing ENTER after entering a channel number when changing channels. (sequence) For example: TUNER + POWER + TV + POWER + TV/SAT (to change the input on the TV to VIDEO 1) + SAT + POWER. When your macro sequence is concluded, press ESC to save. IMPORTANT: For a more detailed explanation of what function each shifted key performs by device type (e. g. , TV, VCR, etc. ), please refer to pages 52 through 64. 3 When the sequence key is pressed, the Tuner will power ON, the TV will power ON and change its input to VIDEO 1, and then the Satellite will power ON. Repeat these steps 1 to 3 to setup another sequence key (MACRO or MACRO2) for your needs. NOTE: If you make a mistake during the setup of a macro sequence, press ESC to return to the main display screen and begin the setup of your sequence again. 40 41 HOW TO USE THE SLEEP KEY The Home Producer has a SLEEP key that either operates your component's sleep timer or, if your component does not have a sleep timer, it activates the Home Producer's built-in sleep timer, after you activate SLEEP LOCK (see below). [. . . ] The SELECT key operates the DISK SELECT function on your original CD Player remote control. The MENU + (Up) and MENU ­ (Down) keys access TRACK + and TRACK ­ respectively. MENU (Left) and MENU (Right) access DISK ­ and DISK + respectively. The SUR (Surround) key functions the same as the 10+ key on your original remote control. + The SLEEP key (SHIFT + MUTE) accesses the sleep timer on your Amplifier. [. . . ]
