Remote Control
The remote control is a sophisticated 'universal' back lit
remote control that can control up to 8 devices. It is pre-
programmed for use with the SA30 and Arcam CD and
Blu-Ray players.
With its extensive library of codes it can also be used
with thousands of third party AV components. See the
list of codes at the back of this manual
Make sure the two AAA batteries (supplied) are installed
before attempting to use the remote control.
1. Open the battery compartment on the back of the
handset. To do this, press the catch on the battery
cover as indicated by the arrow on the catch and
remove the battery cover.
2. Insert two 'AAA' batteries, as indicated in the battery
compartment.
3. Replace the battery cover. To do this, locate the lug
on the battery cover into the corresponding hole on
the short edge of the battery compartment. Now
press the opposite end of the battery cover (with
the catch) down so that the cover is flush with the
main body of the remote and the catch clicks.
The remote control requires a clear line of sight to the
front panel of the SA30 to ensure reliable operation.
Notes on batteries:
Incorrect use of batteries can result in hazards such as
leakage and bursting.
Do not mix old and new batteries together.
Do not use non-identical batteries together – although
they may look similar, different batteries may have
different voltages.
Ensure the plus (+) and minus (-) ends of each
battery match the direction indicated in the battery
compartment.
Remove batteries from equipment that is not going to
be used for a month or more.
When disposing of used batteries, please comply with
governmental or local regulations that apply in your
country or area.
Useful information
Backlight
A backlight comes on for eight seconds whenever a key
is pressed. This helps you use the handset in subdued
lighting conditions.
LED blinks
Short blinks indicate a valid key press.
Multiple short blinks convey information (such as a
device code) or signal the beginning and successful
completion of a programming sequence.
The symbol '*' is used in the manual to indicate an LED
blink.
Timeouts and unassigned keys
Time out – After 30 seconds the remote exits the
programming state and returns to normal operation.
Stuck key timeout – After any key is pressed
continuously for 30 seconds, the remote stops sending
IR transmission to conserve battery life. The remote
remains off until all keys are released.
Unassigned keys – the remote ignores any unassigned
key presses for a particular Device Mode and does not
transmit IR.
Low voltage indicator
When the batteries are running down, the backlight
flashes briefly whenever you press a button.
If this happens, fit two new AAA alkaline batteries as
soon as possible.
