ADVANCED FUNCTIONS

The RCP 7 remote control not only operates the AVR 347 and DVD 48,

but it also serves as a universal remote that may be programmed to

operate many of your other home theater components. The punch-

through and macro features add even more flexibility and versatility.

Punch-Through Programming

The RCP 7 remote allows you to select one component for the remote

to operate, while simultaneously setting certain groups of controls to

operate another component. For example, while using the remote to

control video functions on your TV, you may wish to use your cable box

to change channels and the AVR to control the volume.

This is possible using punch-through programming.

NOTE: It is not necessary to program the remote to control

your DVD player’s transport controls while the AVR or a device

connected to the VID2 or VID3 inputs is in use, as the remote

is preprogrammed at the factory with this function.

To program punch-through control while operating any device:

1. Press and hold the Input Selector (or AVR Selector) for the main

device the remote will be operating until the Input Selector lights,

the Program Indicator LED flashes and the remote enters Program

mode.

2. Select the type of punch-through programming:

a) To program volume control punch-through, press the Volume

Up Button.

b) To program channel control punch-through, press the Volume

Down Button.

NOTE: Do not program channel-control punch-through for the

AVR. Doing so will override the Sleep command, which is not

accessible in any other way, and the DSP Surround Mode

Selector. If you have inadvertently done so, repeat Steps 1

through 3, but press the AVR Selector in both Steps 1 and 3.

c) To program Transport Control punch-through, press the Play Button.

3. Press the Input Selector (or AVR Selector) for the device whose

volume, channel or transport controls you would like to be active

while operating the device you selected in the first step. The LED

will flash green to confirm the programming.

For example, if you wish to watch your TV (programmed into the Video 3

button) while changing channels using your cable box (Video 2), you

would first press the Video 3 Button until the LED flashed. You would

then press the Volume Down Button, followed by the Video 2 Button.

To undo punch-through programming, follow the same steps as above,

but press the same Input (or AVR) Selector in Steps 1 and 3.

NOTE: As mentioned earlier, the AVR, VID2 and VID3 devices

are factory-programmed with transport-control punch-through

to operate the DVD player. You may reprogram these selectors

following the instructions in Steps 1 through 3 to operate another

device, such as a CD player.

If you wish to reprogram these selectors to have no transport-

control punch-through, the process is slightly different. Each of

these three selectors has no native transport-control commands.

Therefore, when reprogramming them to eliminate transport-

control punch-through, in Step 3 you must select one of these

three selectors, but not the same one you are reprogramming.

For example, to remove transport-control punch-through from

the VID2 device, follow the instructions in Steps 1 through 3,

but press either the AVR or VID3 Button in Step 3.

Macros

Macros are used to program sequences of up to 19 commands

that are executed with a single button press. Macros are well suited

for Power On and Off commands, to send out a favorite multidigit

channel number with one button press, or to have the ability to send

out a code sequence to control another device while the remote is

operating one device but with more flexibility than the built-in punch-

through controls.

Some commands may not be programmed into macros: Mute, Dim,

Channel Up/Down and any of the Surround Mode commands.

NOTE: Use caution when programming complicated macros. It

isn’t possible to program a pause or delay before sending com-

mands after powering on, and the component may not be ready

to respond to commands instantaneously after powering on.

To program, or “record,” a macro, follow these steps:

1. Simultaneously press one of the four Macro Buttons or the Power On

Button and the Mute Button at the same time to enter Program mode.

2. Press the Input (or AVR) Selector for each device before you enter

commands to be transmitted to that device. This step counts as one

of the 19 commands allowed for each macro.

NOTE: Even if you previously switched one of the dual-source

Input Selectors (DVD/CD, TAPE/THE BRIDGE, HDMI 1/HDMI 2)

to the primary or secondary source prior to programming the

macro, the remote always requires you to press any of these

selectors

once

to program the macro to select the primary

source and

twice

for the secondary source.

3. For the Power On command, do not press the Power On Button.

Press the Mute Button instead.

4. Press the Power Off Button to program the Power Off command.

5. Press the Sleep Button to end the programming process.
