OVERVIEW OF THE HTR 8
•
Controls up to 8 devices.
•
Learns up to 360 commands.
•
Records up to 52 macros with a
maximum of 64 commands each.
•
Configurable punch-through.
•
Key illumination with programmable
timeout.
•
Upgradable.
•
Contains pre-programmed library of
NAD remote codes.
The NAD HTR 8 is ready to operate NAD
components right out of the box, but it
is really eight remotes in one. Each of the
8 DEVICE SELECTOR keys at the top of
the handset can call up a new "page" of
remote control codes to be transmitted
by the remaining keys. You may "teach"
codes from any infrared-remote con-
trolled component, regardless of brand,
to any or all of these.
Obviously, the most logical system is
that you teach the codes from your DVD
player to the [DVD] DEVICE SELECTOR
"page, " your television's codes to the [TV]
"page" and so on, but there is no required
scheme: You may load any commands
to any key on any page (see "LEARNING
CODES FROM OTHER REMOTES" below).
The HTR 8 is already pre-programmed
with a full complement of NAD
receiver commands on its [AMP] DEVICE
SELECTOR page, and as well as with
library commands to operate most
NAD-brand DVD, BD, CD or TUNER com-
ponents on the corresponding DEVICE
SELECTOR "pages". These default com-
mands are permanent: Even if you teach
the HTR 8 new commands to take their
place, the underlying library commands
remain in place and can easily be recalled
should you add an NAD component to
your system later (see "DELETE MODE"
below).
GETTING FAMILIAR WITH
THE HTR 8
The HTR 8 is divided into two main sec-
tions. Eight DEVICE SELECTOR keys at the
top—[AMP], [DVD,] [TV,] and so on - set
the handset's remaining keys to a "page"
of commands to control a particular
component. A DEVICE SELECTOR key
determines only what component the
HTR 8 will command; it does not perform
any function on the component. All the
remaining keys are function keys that can
"learn" control codes from virtually any
infrared remote controller, allowing you
to teach the codes of your equipment,
regardless of brand, to the HTR 8.
