User manual SONY RM-AV2000T

[. . . ] The RM-AV2000T Remote Commander provides centralized control of all your AV components from a single remote commander and saves the trouble of operating different AV components with different remote control devices. Centralized control of Sony AV components with this one remote commander This Commander is preset at the factory to operate Sony brand components, so you can use it out of the box as a control center for your Sony AV components. You can remote control your components by setting their code numbers. Learning function for programming other remote control signals you need This Commander has a learning function, to learn remote control signals to operate non-preset components or functions. [. . . ] The Commander is factory preset based on the assumption that you hear the sound of your visual components from your TV speakers, and that you hear the sound of your audio components from the loudspeakers connected to your amplifier. The following table shows the factory setting of which volume would be controlled for each component. To use the new signals, you need to program each button for each component by the learning procedure (page 12). (Note that the SYSTEM CONTROL 3 button is factory preset with standard Poweron Command for nearly all Sony Components. ) To program a new series of operations, clear the program first (see page 21). The remote control signal for the pressed key is transmitted, so you can check that each component actually operates the way you want. If you interrupt the procedure at any point for over two minutes, the setting mode ends and the series of commands will be programmed to that point. In this case, clear the program and start again from Step 1 to set the entire program from the beginning. You can not continue from where you let off. If a SYSTEM CONTROL button has already "learned" a remote control signal (see page 28), "NG"flashes and you hear a beep to inform you that you can not program on this button. Clear the learned contents first (see page 29). If you change the component code number (page 7) or program a new signal by learning (page 12) on a key or button that has been programmed in the series of commands of the System Control function, the new signal will be transmitted when you press the corresponding SYSTEM CONTROL button. In this example, press the following buttons and keys. After the series of input commands is executed, the Commander displays the touch keys of the component of the final step. By programming an often-used component's command as the final step, you can save the step of pressing a Component Select button when you start operating that component. The programmed remote control signals are transmitted in the programmed order to operate each component. At the same time that each remote control signal is transmitted, the corresponding key is displayed. If the remote control detectors of the components are too far apart, or if something is blocking them, some of the components may not operate consecutively even after you press the SYSTEM CONTROL button. If some of the components did not operate correctly because of the above or for any other reason, always set all the components back to the states they were in before you pressed the SYSTEM CONTROL button. Failure to do this can result in incorrect operation when you press the SYSTEM CONTROL button again. Some components may not always be powered on by the System Control function. This is because the power of the component gets on and off alternatively when receiving the power on/off signal. [. . . ] Another remote control signal has been already programmed on that key or button by the learning function. Clear learned functions (page 15) and then try the learning procedure again. Make sure that you have programmed the commands in the correct order. If that does not help, try placing the components as close to each other as possible. [. . . ]
