INSTALLATION
from the appendix table corresponding to the device and pro-
gram it into the AUX Source Selector. Similarly, the CBL/SAT
Source Selector is used for either a cable or satellite television
set-top box. The first digit of the product code indicates the
device type.
2. Turn on your source device.
3. This step places the remote in program mode. Refer to Figure 37.
Press and hold the Source Selector. The button will turn red, then go
dark. Continue holding it, and when it turns red again, release the
button; the remote is now in program mode. Follow the directions in
Step 4, below.
Figure 37 – Source Selectors
Optional: To reassign a device type from one Source Selector to another
Source Selector not being used, e.g. if there are two DVD players in the
system, press the Source Selector for the new device type now. For
example, to reassign the Cable/Sat Source Selector to operate a DVD
player, first press and hold the Cable/Sat Button, and then press the
DVD Button.
4. Enter a code from Step 1, above.
a) If the device turns off, press the Source Selector again to accept
the code; it will flash. The remote will exit Program mode.
b) If the device does not turn off, try entering another code. If you
run out of codes, you may search through all of the codes in the
remote’s library for that product type by pressing the
⁄
or
¤
Button repeatedly until the device turns off. When the device turns
off, enter the code by pressing the Source Selector, which will
flash. The remote then exits Program mode.
5. Once you have programmed a code, it’s a good idea to try using
some other functions to control the device. Sometimes, manufacturers
use the same Power code for several different models, while other
codes will vary. You may wish to repeat this process until you’ve
programmed a satisfactory code set that operates most of the
functions you frequently use.
6. Find out which code number you have programmed by pressing
and holding the Source Selector to enter the Program mode. Then
press the OK Button, and the Source Selector will flash in the code
sequence. One flash represents “1”, two flashes for “2”, and so forth.
A series of many fast flashes represents “0”. Record the codes pro-
grammed for each device in Table A9 in the appendix.
If you are unable to locate a code set that correctly operates your
source device, it will not be possible to use the AVR remote to control
that device. However, you may still connect the source to the AVR 254
and operate it using the device’s original remote control.
Most of the button labels on the remote describe the button’s function
when used to control the AVR 254. However, the button may perform
a very different function when used to control another device. Refer to
the Remote Control Function List, Table A13 in the Appendix, for a list of
each button’s functions with the various product types.
If you wish, you may program Activities, which are preprogrammed code
sequences that execute many code commands with a single button
press. You may also program “punch-through” codes, which allow the
remote to operate the channel or transport controls of another device
without having to switch the remote’s device mode. See page 53 for
instructions on these advanced programming functions.
Step Nine – Remote IR Inputs and Output (Optional)
The AVR 254 is equipped with a Remote IR Input, a Zone 2 Input and
a Remote IR Output to facilitate use of your system with a remote control
in a variety of situations. See Figure 38.
Figure 38 – IR Inputs and Outputs
When the AVR 254 is placed in such a way that aiming the remote at the
front-panel IR sensor is difficult, such as inside a cabinet or facing away from
the listener, you may connect an external IR receiver, such as the optional
Harman Kardon HE 1000, to the Remote IR Input jack. When you are using
the AVR 254 in multizone mode, you may connect an optional IR receiver,
keypad or other control device to the Zone 2 IR Input for remote control
of the AVR 254 (and any sources connected to the AVR’s Remote IR
Output) from the remote zone. Any signals transmitted through the Zone 2
IR Input will only control source selection and volume for the remote zone.
If a source device is being shared with the main listening area, then any
control commands issued to that source will also affect the main room.
If any of your source devices are equipped with a compatible Remote
IR Input, use a 1/8" mini-plug interconnect cable (not included) to con-
nect the AVR’s Remote IR Output to the source device’s Remote IR
Input, which will pass any applicable remote signals transmitted through
the AVR to the source device. This enables you to control your sources
even when the AVR itself is controlled via an external IR receiver.
Check with the manufacturer of the source device for more information
on the type of IR signal expected. The AVR 254 will output a “stripped
carrier” IR signal through the Remote IR Output.
