RC-18SR BASIC OPERATION
USE Mode:
As supplied from the factory, the RC-18SR is already permanently
programmed with many pre-set commands common to Marantz and
Philips equipment, as well as other brands of components that utilize
the Philips RC-5 remote control language.
1. If the RC-18SR is in another mode (LEARN, etc.), press the
operation mode button z with the tip of a paper clip, until the
USE indication appears.
2. Press one of the function buttons ., to change to another
component’s commands such as LD (refer to Figure 1).
Figure 1
3. “LD” will be indicated within the LCD window, and the function
codes will be set to operate the laser disc player. Press the
function button again within 2 seconds and the amplifier or
receiver’s input changes to laser disc.
4. Now you can operate the laser disc player. When a button is
pressed, the symbol indicates that a remote code is being
transmitted. Note that for a particular source component, not
every button may have a command programmed for it. In that
case, nothing would be indicated.
5. Using the DIRECT buttons D-1 through D-8 and PAGEs 1
through 4, up to 32 different specialized commands are available
for each FUNCTION, up to a total of 352 specialized commands
(32 direct commands times 11 functions). Note that for any
particular function selector, not all 32 direct commands may be
provided and/or named as supplied from the factory.
6. For example, the RC-18SR is supplied from the factory with 3
pages of DIRECT commands for the LD (laser disc) function. To
change pages, press the page direction or buttons ,:
Page 1:MODE: Side A/B laser disc playback functions
Page 2:L D: Specialized laser disc functions
Page 3:R E C: Recording from laser disc to VCR functions
At this point, you may wish to put this guide aside temporarily, and
begin using the RC-18SR with your A/V system. If you already
have any Marantz components, or Philips and/or other brands of
components that use the RC-5 remote control language, you can
begin controlling those components with the RC-18SR right away.
Take some time to become comfortable with the operation of the
RC-18SR. We think that its intuitive key pad layout and easy to read
LCD window will permit you to quickly become familiar with its
operation.
If you do not have any Marantz or other brands of components
that use the Philips RC-5 remote control language, then you may
wish to proceed to the next section, which will describe the steps
necessary to “teach” your RC-18SR remote codes from other
components you may have in your system.
LEARN mode:
The RC-18SR has the ability to learn remote codes for just about any
component in your A/V system. If the original component was
supplied with an infrared remote control, its commands can be
learned by the RC-18SR. If you have another brand of laser disc
player, for example, you can program the RC-18SR with its codes.
For example, we’ll show you how to “teach” the RC-18SR commands
from another brand of laser disc player.
1. Using a sharp point (such as the tip of a paper clip), press the
operation MODE button z. Each time you press the button, the
mode within the LCD display, the LEARN indicator will begin
blinking.
2. Place the laser disc player’s supplied infrared remote controller
so that its transmitter window (usually at the top) is facing the
receiving infrared sensor window ¤2 of the RC-18SR (at the
bottom), about 5 cm (2 inches) apart.
3. Press the LD function button on the RC-18SR.
4. Press the play button ⁄5 on the RC-18SR.
5. Press and hold the corresponding PLAY button on the laser disc
player’s remote transmitter until the “OK” indicator appears in the
RC-18SR LCD window (see Figure 2) or the beep sounds emit (if
the beep sound function is set ).
Figure 2
If the “AGAIN” indicator appears in the RC-18SR LCD window, it
means that for some reason the command was not properly
learned. Repeat steps 3, 4 and 5 above.
In the unlikely event that an infrared command cannot be learned
by the RC-18SR, “NG” (no good) will appear in the LCD window,
meaning that the command is not “learnable”. The RC-18SR has
been tested for compatibility with a very wide range of infrared
remote control frequencies and data word lengths, but in some
very rare instances, it may not be possible to learn a particular
remote control command.
Continue to “teach” the RC-18SR the rest of the source
transmitter’s transport function commands, such as STOP,
PAUSE, NEXT, PREVIOUS, FAST FORWARD and REWIND, by
repeating steps 3, 4 and 5 above.
6. Proceed to learn the numeric “10 keys” from the source
transmitter to the RC-18SR’s 10 key numeric pad ⁄2 by repeating
steps 3, 4 and 5 above.
7. For each additional function, such as TV, VCR, etc., repeat steps
3, 4 and 5 above. During the LEARN operation, if any button is
not pressed within 1 minute, the RC-18SR will revert back to the
previous operating mode.
n To make a function button learn a code, switch the input
function then press the button again.
8. After memorizing all desired remote codes, press the operation
mode button z with the tip of a paper clip, and select the USE
mode. The LCD display window will continue to display the USE
indicator, and all of the newly memorized codes will be available
(see Figure 3).
Figure 3
For any button for which a new code was not learned, the factory
programmed RC-5 code will still transmit as usual.
Note:
POWER ON/OFF v code can be learned regardless of the function
button selection:
Programming the DIRECT mode buttons m:
The following example will show how to memorize the SIDE-A function
command of another brand of laser disc player into the D1 direct
button.
1. Using a sharp point (such as the tip of a paper clip), press the
operation MODE button z to switch the RC-18SR to LEARN
mode.
2. Place the laser disc player’s supplied infrared remote controller
so that its transmitter window is facing the receiving infrared
sensor window ¤2 of the RC-18SR about 5 cm (2 inches) apart.
3. Press the LD function button . on the RC-18SR.
4. Using the direct function page keys and ,, set the direct
function to Page 1. Press the D-1 button m on the RC-18SR.
