C Appendix Remote Control Programm ing ................ .............. ............. ....... C-2 Three-Digit Preprogrammed Codes . ................ ...
Appendix C Lexicon C-2 REMOTE CONTROL PROGRAMMING The RV -8 remote control has been designed to provide a new standard in remote control tec hnology offering a very powerful and flexible preprogrammed and learning product.
RV-8 Appendix C C-3 MACRO OPERATIONS A “macro” is a series of commands that can be sent out with the push of a single button. Any function available on an original remote control or in the preprogrammed database can be added to a macro to completely automate what would norm ally be done by pushing buttons one at a time.
Appendix C Lexicon C-4 REMOTE PROGRAMMING OVER VIEW The first task is to get all or iginal remote controls together . Y ou may have one or mo re components that do not have original remote controls. These can still be controlled by the RV -8. The preprogrammed m ethod must be u sed for those devices.
RV-8 Appendix C C-5 USING PREPR OGRAMMED CODES T o program the remote to make it compatible with other components: 1. Manually power on the device to be operated. 2. Go to the SETUP mode by pressing bo th the HOME and ENT buttons simultaneously for three seconds un til SETUP appears at the top of the LCD screen.
Appendix C Lexicon C-6 work with the device. Make note of th e code if it seem s to be the right one, and try the next one. Y ou are trying to find the one that has the most functions to operate your equipment. If there are any functions missing, you will learn them from your original remote in the “Using Learning Method” section on page C-7.
RV-8 Appendix C C-7 code is the one t hat will have the functions th at more closely match the device than t he others, so it is advised to tr y them all.
Appendix C Lexicon C-8 PROGRAMMING THE FUNCTION BUTTONS T o program the Function Buttons: 1. Go to the SETUP mode by pressing bo th the HOME and ENT buttons simultaneously for three seconds. 2. Press the LEARN button next to the LCD screen. 3. Select the DEVICE that contains the function button you wish to program.
RV-8 Appendix C C-9 Note: Follow these instructions only if yo u actually want a code sent when changin g de vices . It may no t be desir ed to sen d out cod es whe n cha ngin g to a device. For example, you program the RV -8’ s TV input code on the TV device, and are currently in the DVD devi ce pages.
Appendix C Lexicon C-10 PROGRAMMING MACRO BUTTONS A “macro” is a series of commands th at can be sent with the push of a single button. Th ere are two types of m acro functions that can be programmed: functions involving the M1, M2 and M3 buttons;or functions involving the POWER an d SYSTEM OFF buttons.
RV-8 Appendix C C-11 7. Return to step 4 until all desired commands are programmed. 8. Save the commands selected to the macro button by pressing the CH UP button. 9. Once you complete the programming and wish to exit from this mode, press the HOME button.
Appendix C Lexicon C-12 Note: A macro can end on any page, including the HOME page. In the previous example, the macro was ended on the SA T page before savin g it, as this was the desired endpoint. PROGRAMMING “PUNCH THR O UGH” FUNCTIONS The RV -8 volume control can be used in a different mode using the volume “punch through” feature.
RV-8 Appendix C C-13 ERASING FAVORITE CHANNEL BUTTONS T o erase favorite channel buttons: 1. Go to the SETUP mode by pressing bo th the HOME and ENT buttons simultaneously for three seconds. 2. Press the ERASE butto n next to the LCD screen. 3. Press the FA V button.
