Harman-Kardon RCP 2 Universal Remote User Manual


 
PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE
LED under the reassigned Input Selector will flash
three times and then go out.
Example: To use the CBL/SAT button to operate
a second VCR, first press the
VID 2/CBL/SAT
Input Selector
e and the Mute Button
at the same time until the red light glows under
the
VID 2/CBL/SAT Button e. Press the VCR
Button
e, followed by the three-digit code for the
specific model you wish to control. Finally,press the
VID 2/CBL/SA
T Button
e again.
Resetting the RCP 2’s Memory
As you add components to your home theater system,
occasionally you may wish to totally reprogram the
remote control without the confusion of any commands,
macros or “Punch-Through” programming that you may
have done.To do this, it is possible to reset the RCP 2
to the original factory defaults and command codes by
following these steps. However, once the remote is
reset, all commands or codes that you have entered
will be erased and will need to be reentered:
1. Press any of the
Input Selector Buttons e and
the
“O” Button r at the same time until the
Program/SPL Indicator c begins to flash amber.
2. Press the
“3” Button r three times.
3.The red LED under the
Input Selector e will go
out and the
Program/SPL Indicator c will stop
flashing and turn green.
4.The
Program/SPL Indicator c will remain green
until the RCP 2 is reset. Note that this may take a
while
, depending on how many commands are in the
memor
y and need to be erased.
5.When the
Program/SPL Indicator c goes out,
the RCP 2 has been reset to the factory settings.
Programmed Device Functions
Once the RCP 2 has been programmed for the codes
of other devices
,
press the appropriate
Input Selector
e to change the remote from controlling the AVR to
controlling the additional product.When you press any
one of the selectors, it will briefly flash in red to indicate
that you have changed the device being controlled.
When operating a device other than the AVR, the con-
trols may not correspond exactly to the function printed
on the remote or button.
Some commands
, such as
the volume control, are the same as they are with the
A
VR.
Other buttons will change their function so that
they correspond to a secondary label on the remote.
For example,the Sleep and Surround mode selector
buttons also function as the Channel Up and Channel
Down buttons when operating most
TV sets
,
VCRs or
cable boxes.The Channel Up/Down indication is printed
directly on the remote. For many standard CD players,
cassette decks,VCRs and DVD functions, the standard
function icons are printed on top of the buttons
.
For some products,however, the function of a particu-
lar button does not follow the command printed on
the remote. In order to see which function a button
controls, consult the Function List tables on pages 11
and 12.
To use those tables, first check the type of
device being controlled (e.g.,TV, VCR). Next, look at
the remote control diagram in the figure at right. Note
that each button has a number on it.
T
o find out what function a particular button has for
a specific device
, find the button number on the
Function List and then look in the column for the device
you are controlling. For example,button number 46
is the Direct button for the AVR, but it is the “Favorite”
button for many cable television boxes and satellite
receivers. Button number 30 is the Digital Selection
button for the AVR, but the Open/Close button for CD
players.
NOTE: The numbers used to describe the button
functions in the diagram on this page for the purposes
of describing how a button operates are a different set
of numbers than those used in the rest of this manual
to describe the button functions for the AVR.
Notes on Using the RCP 2 With Other Devices
• Manufacturers may use different code sets for the
same product category. For that reason, it is impor-
tant that you check to see whether the code set you
have entered operates as many controls as possible.
If it appears that only a few functions operate, check
to see whether another code set will work with more
buttons.
When a button is pressed on the RCP
2,
the red
light under the
Input Selector e for the product
being operated should flash briefly.If the Device
Control Selector flashes for some but not all but-
tons for a particular product, it does NOT indicate a
problem with the remote but rather that no function
is programmed for the button being pushed.
