INSTALLATION
Figure 37 – Remote Battery Compartment
When using the remote, remember to point the lens toward the front
panel of the AVR 354. Make sure no objects, such as furniture, are
blocking the remote’s path to the receiver. Bright lights, fluorescent lights
and plasma video displays may interfere with the remote’s functioning.
The remote has a range of about 20 feet, depending on the lighting
conditions. It may be used at an angle of up to 30 degrees to either
side of the AVR.
If the remote lights up when a button is pressed but the AVR does not
respond, check that the Zone Selector Switch at the bottom is in the
Zone 1 position.
If the remote seems to operate intermittently, or if pressing a button
on the remote does not cause the AVR Settings Button or one of the
Source Selectors to light up, then make sure the batteries have been
inserted correctly, or replace all four batteries with fresh ones.
Step Eight – Program Sources Into the Remote
The AVR 354 remote not only is capable of controlling the receiver,
but it may also be programmed to control many brands and models
of DVD players, cable boxes, satellite receivers, the Harman Kardon
DMC 1000 digital media center and TVs. It is also preprogrammed
to operate your iPod when docked in The Bridge II.
It may help to think of the remote as a book with pages. Each “page”
represents the button functions for a different device. To access the
functions for a particular device, first turn to its page; that is, switch
the remote’s device mode. Press the AVR Settings Button to access
the codes that control the receiver, or the Source Selector Buttons
to access the codes for the devices programmed into the remote.
The AVR 354’s remote control is factory-programmed to control many
Harman Kardon DVD players. If you have other source devices in your
system, follow these steps to program the correct codes into the remote.
1. Using the codes in Tables A14 – A24 of the Appendix, look up the
product type (e.g., DVD, cable TV box) and the brand name of your
source. The number(s) listed is/are potential candidates for the
correct code set for your particular device.
NOTE: The AUX Source Selector is used for the CD, HDTV, PVD
recorder, TiVo and VCR device types. Select the brand code
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 TV 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. Referring to Figure
38, 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 38 – 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
programmed for each device in Table A9 in the appendix.
After you have programmed a code set to operate a device, test the
functions to see which ones may be missing or not operating correctly.
You may “learn” individual key codes if you have the device’s original
remote control by following this procedure:
