Advanced Remote Operations
This chapter describes how to change the
factory setting of a function button and how to
set the remote to control non-Sony
components.

4 Press ENTER.
Once the numeric code has been verified,
the indicator slowly flashes twice and the
remote automatically exits the programming
mode.

5 Repeat steps 1 to 4 to control other

Programming the remote

components.
To cancel programming

You can program the remote to control nonSony components by changing the code. Once
the control signals have been memorized, you
can use those components as part of your
system.
Furthermore, you can also program the remote
for Sony components that the remote is unable
to control. Note that the remote can only
control components that accept infrared
wireless control signals.
Note

When you assign a component to the MONITOR
button, you can operate the programmed component
without changing the function of the receiver.

1 Press AV ?/1 while pressing down USE
MODE.

The indicator lights.

2 Press the function button (including
MONITOR) for the component you want
to control.

For example, if you are going to control a
CD player, press CD.

3 Press the numeric buttons to enter the
numeric code (or one of the codes if
more than one code exists)
corresponding to the component and
the maker of the component you want
to control.

See the tables on pages 11 and 12 for
information on the numeric code(s)
corresponding to the component and the
maker of the component (the first digit and
the last two digits of the numeric code
correspond to the category and the maker’s
code respectively.)

10

Press USE MODE during any step. The remote
automatically exits the programming mode.
Tips

• If programming is unsuccessful, check the
following:
– If the indicator does not light up in step 1, the
batteries are weak. Replace both batteries.
– If the indicator flashes 4 times in quick
succession while entering the numeric code, an
error has occurred. Start again from step 1.
• To activate the function after programming, press
the programmed button to activate the function you
want.
Notes

• The indicator turns off while a valid button is
pressed.
• In step 2, if several function buttons are pressed,
only the last pressed button is valid.
• In step 3, if a function button is pressed, the new
function is selected and the programming procedure
returns to the beginning of step 3.
• For the numeric codes, only the first three numbers
entered are valid.

To clear the memory of the remote

To clear all programmed and learned signals,
do the following to reset the remote to factory
settings.
Press ?/1, AV ?/1 and MASTER VOL – at
the same time.

The indicator flashes 3 times, then goes off.

Advanced Remote Operations

Use the numeric codes in the tables below to
control non-Sony conponents and also Sony
components that the remote is normally unable
to control. Since the remote signal that a
component accepts differs depending on the
model and year of the component, more than
one numeric code may be assigned to a
component. If you fail to program your remote
using one of the codes, try using other codes.
