USE OF LEARNING FUNCTIONS
Introduction
This system
remote
controller
may
"learn" the com-
mands of other remote control unit, regardiess of manu-
facturerer, as long as the other unit is of the infrared type.
In some cases you may still need the original remote con-
trol unit for special situations. But as a rule, you will be
able to use this Pioneer remote for most system control
needs, including video as well as audio equipment.
NOTE:
When using the "LEARN" mode it is a good idea to take the
another remote control unit to another room.
This avoids
problems such as sudden high volume output or accidental
tape erasure that may occur if particular infrared command
signals reach your components. Alternatively you may wish
to unplug your component system. Simply turning off the
power may not be sufficient since power on/off switching
may also be remote controllable.

Which
keys
can
be
programmed
with
new
commands?
By setting the SR RECALL/USE/LEARN selector to the LEARN
position, you can memorize codes in the AUDIO mode and
VIDEO mode for the TRANSMISSION mode switch. Memori-
zation is also possible with the SURROUND AMP switch in
the SUR mode or AMP mode. {The AUDIO/VIDEO
mode
switch and the SUR/AMP switch do not affect each other.)
The USE mode allows you to use the remote control to oper-
ate your system components. Only Pioneer SR codes are
transmitted in the SR Recall mode, and none of the keys can
be used for memory of other codes. The keys on the remote
control unit change their functions according to the setting
of the TRANSMISSION mode switch. You can switch the
TRANSMISSION
mode
between the AUDIO
and VIDEO
modes.
You can assign new commands to the keys in each of the
modes. In the VIDEO and AUDIO mode, all keys can be
assigned new commands.
When you first start using the remote control unit, it contains
initial commands appropriate for Pioneer equipment (when
set to the AUDIO and VIDEO modes). If your audio and video
equipment consists of Pioneer components exclusively you
can use the remote control unit as is. It is also possible to
restore the original Pioneer commands after assigning other
commands. (Refer to ''Returning to the Initial Settings"' for
this procedure.)
Other Important Notes
e A total of 40 keys may be used for memorization of
other codes. (This may very depending on the com-
mand format of the codes to be memorized.)
© There are 2 REC keys on the remote control unit to pre-
vent misoperation. To start recording, or to memorize a
command code with the REC keys, the must both be
pressed at the same time.
If the batteries become
weak, all functions will be
stopped automatically. lf the indicators no longer light
or flash, or components do not respond to signals from
the remote control unit, you should replace the batter-
ies with a set of fresh ones. (Always use the recom-
mended size alkaline cells.)
When pressetting keys, make sure that the remote con-
trol units of both this and the other component are
loaded with fresh batteries.
For some special remote signal types of infrared remote
control units programming may be impossible.
