Designed to provide all the excitement and detail of movie soundtracks and every nuance of musical selections, the AVR 7200 is truly a multichannel receiver for the new millennium. [. . . ] · To program the AVR 7200 for automatic turn-off, press the Sleep Button S on the remote. Each press of the button will decrease the time before shutdown in the following sequence: 90 min 40 min 80 min 30 min 70 min 20 min 60 min 10 min 50 min OFF words SLEEP OFF will appear in the Lower Display Line B. · When you will be away from home for an extended period of time it is always a good idea to completely turn the unit off with the front-panel Main Power Switch 1. NOTE: All preset memories are lost if the unit is left turned off by using the Main Power Switch 1 for more than two weeks. feature does not use any electricity, but the glow will fade when the remote is kept in a dark location for an extended period of time. Restore the "glow" feature by placing the remote in normal room light for a few hours. · The remote's backlight will remain lit for approximately five seconds after the Light Button P is pressed, and it will stay lit for another five seconds if any key is pressed while the backlight is on. You may keep the backlight lit by holding the Light button, but note that extensive use of the backlight will reduce battery life. · The LCD display will remain on for 10 seconds after a key is pressed and then turn off to conserve battery life. · When any button is held for more than 30 seconds the LCD will turn off and the remote will stop transmitting the codes to conserve battery life. · Some of the buttons on the remote do not have a function on certain devices. For example, the Channel Up/Down buttons do not operate in the normal AVR mode unless they have been assigned for this purpose using the "punch-through" process as explained on pages 42 ­ 43. When it is normal for a button not to have a function, you will see the device name in the top left side of the remote's LCD display, but you will not see the transmit icon on the upper right side of the display or any button function name on the bottom line of the display. Remote Control Operation The AVR 7200's advanced remote includes a two-line LCD display that makes it easy to operate both the AVR and any other product that the remote has been programmed for. Complete information on programming the remote for operation with other devices and configuring its options are found on pages 38 ­ 47. The following items provide some additional details on using the remote with the AVR 7200: · The name of the command code transmitted when a button is pressed printed on the button key or just to the top of the button on the remote itself. In addition, when a button is pressed, the function being transmitted will also appear in the bottom line of the remote's LCD display. · In order to send a command to the AVR 7200, the AVR Selector e must be pressed. To send a command to another device, first press the Input Selector d for that device. · The remote will automatically return to the controls for the AVR 7200 within five seconds after the button for another device is pressed. · The factory default setting for the remote is to have the Volume Up/Down r and Mute 32 buttons operate the AVR 7200, regardless of which device (such as a DVD or another video source) is in use. · The factory setting for the remote is to have the Transport Forward/Reverse Play Buttons G, Transport Fast Play/Scan Forward/Reverse Buttons I, Main Transport Controls J and Track Skip Up/Down Buttons K operate the DVD player, regardless of which device (including the AVR) is in use. This simplifies operation, as in normal use you will use the AVR controls, and this means that you do not have to press the DVD button to control a player. You may change the "punch-through" setting which allows the buttons for Volume, Transport Control or Channel Up/Down to be assigned into another device by following the instructions on pages 42 ­ 43. [. . . ] The message shown in Figure 77 will appear, the data entered in the current process will be lost and the remote will return to normal operation. Any process that was underway when the button will be pressed must be restarted. · Extensive use of the programming, learning and configuration functions of the remote may consume significantly more battery power than normal remote operation. While the batteries should last for four to six months in normal operation, you may find that they need to be changed sooner after the remote is programmed for the first time. [. . . ]
