DR-3 REMOTE GUIDED TOUR See the chart on page 6 for the functions of each button with various device types. 1. Source/Device Area – These buttons serve two functions: to select the device that the remote will control and to change inputs on the Digital Solution preamp/processor. For example if you want to play the DVD player, push the “DVD” button on the top row.
8. MENU – This button acts as a chapter skip button to skip forward through DVD chapters or CD tracks. With TVs and other video devices it calls up the device menu. ^ PAUSE – This button acts as the pause/step frame button for the DP-1 CD/DVD player, VCRs, CD players and TIVO-type video storage devices. To return to normal play, press the PLAY button.
20.TUNE-/SUB TTL – Use to manually tune the radio on the Digital Solution system. Acts as the Subtitle toggle switch on DVD players. For the function on other devices see the chart on page 6. 21.SELECT – This button selects a choice on a menu such as the set up menu of a DVD player or the title menu of a DVD disc. With DSS and cable boxes it acts to call up “Favorites.” It has no function with the Digital Solution preamp/processor. 22.AUDIO – This button toggles through the available audio tracks on a DVD.

PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE Manual Three-Digit Code Method The DR-3 remote control can duplicate the remote functions of most brands of audio/video equipment by simply entering in a three-digit code number. When you enter in the code the DR-3 “learns” most or all of the remote functions of that equipment so you don’t need to program the DR-3 button by button. There are tables on pages 14 - 15 that list the major audio/video brands and their three-digit remote codes. Quick Instructions 1. Look up code number 2.
PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE Auto Search Method If none of the three-digit code numbers assigned to your brand shut off your equipment or if your brand of equipment is not listed in the code tables, you can use the Auto Search Method to find the correct threedigit number for your equipment. 1. Turn on the equipment you wish to program. NOTE: From here on in you have 20 seconds to perform each step. If the Source/Device button light goes off, you need to back up a step and do it again.
PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE Teaching Method From time to time the three-digit programming method doesn’t automatically program in all of the commands of the original remote. In such cases you can “teach” the DR-3 individual commands from your original equipment remote control. New commands can be taught to any button except the eight Source/Device buttons at the top of the remote and the LIGHT, MACRO, LEARN, CODE, SAVE, CNCL, MUTE, SURROUND MODE, VOL UP, VOL DOWN, SUB+, SUB– and SYSTEM POWER buttons.
PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE Erasing a Learned Command From a Button NOTE: You have 20 seconds to perform each step. If the source button light goes off, you need to back up a step and do it again. You can exit by pressing the CNCL (cancel) button at any time in the process. 1. Press and hold the LEARN button for two seconds. The status light at the top left of the remote will glow orange. 2. Press the Source/Device associated with the button you wish to erase. The Source/Device button light will turn on. 3.
PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE Erasing All the Learned Commands in All Device Modes This procedure will erase all the learned commands on all the buttons in all eight Source/Device modes. Be really, really sure you want to do this before following the steps below. 1. Press and hold the LEARN button for two seconds. The Status light at the top left of the remote will glow orange. 2. Press and hold the LEARN button again for 10 seconds. The Status light will flash red continuously.
MACRO OPERATION Programming the Macro Button The MACRO button can send out a sequence of up to 20 commands with one button press. It can be programmed for up to eight Source button macros and perform multi-step operations with just one button push. For example, you can program the MACRO button to turn on the TV, turn on the DS system, turn on the DVD player, select the correct Video input, and open DVD drawer with the push of one just button.
MACRO OPERATION Macro Sequence Programming Example: Confused? Don’t worry, it isn’t as bad as it looks. Let’s walk you through a hypothetical Macro sequence to show you how it works. In this example, we are programming the DVD source Macro button to turn on the TV, the Digital Solution system and the DVD player as well as select the DVD player as the source to view. In this case, we are assuming that you have programmed the TV codes into the CBL Source/Device. 2,7 4 1.
