Controlling Other Components--Continued
The AV receiver's remote controller can learn the com-
mands of other remote controllers simply by pointing
them at each other. For example, by transmitting the Play
command from your CD player's remote controller, the
remote controller can learn it and then transmit the same
command when its Play I_] button is pressed in CD
mode.
This is convenient when you want to acid commands to
buttons alter entering a remote control code (page 80).

• The AV receiver's remote controller can learn up to
approximately 150 commands. However, the com-
mands of some remote controllers may use a lot of
memory, in which case, this will be reduced.
• By defimlt, the AV receiver's remote controller knows
the comnmnds for controlling an Onkyo CD player,
cassette deck, DVD player, and MD player (e.g., Play,
Stop, Pause, etc., buttons). These buttons can learn
new commands, although the defanlts will be restored
if the remote controller is reset.
• To learn a new command for a button that has already
learned one, simply repeat this procedure.
• Like most remote controllers, the AV receiver's
remote controller uses infrared. Commands from
remote controllers that don't use infrared cannot be
learnt.
• When the remote controller's batteries expire, all
learned commands will be lost and will have to be
learned all over again, so don't discard your other
remote controllers.
