remote with other components
You can control most brands of external components – such as TVs, cable/satellite boxes,
and VCR/DVRs – using your LIFESTYLE
selections for each component you want to control, the LIFESTYLE
universal remote for most of your component operations.
Your LIFESTYLE
®
system includes an IR (infrared) emitter that sends out signals from the front
of the music center to each component that your LIFESTYLE
allows you to turn on those sources (which are in the room with the media center) and make
basic selections from them.
It may take more than one try
Some manufacturers use a number of similar device codes. After selecting one code, your
remote may turn your TV, cable or satellite box, or VCR on and off successfully. However,
if you cannot change channels or initiate other features using the remote, you may want to
continue testing device codes until you find one that provides greater control.
After trying a few codes, if your component still does not respond, reposition the component
slightly.
Note: IR signals must reach each component for a reliable test of the IR code settings.
A good way to succeed is by using the supplied IR emitter cable, positioning it in front of each
component as you use the LIFESTYLE
the emitter, see "Using the IR emitter" in your Installation Guide.
