Preset Remote Control Quick Start Guide

This quick start guide explains how to setup the remote

control to operate audio and video components other

than the receiver.

In order to make full use of the functions of the remote

control, be sure to read the section of this manual

entitled "Getting the most from your remote control".

It contains a detailed explanation of how to operate the

remote control and make the necessary settings.

The quick start guide describes the operation of the

following keys:

1 ENT key

Gets you into and out of the preset code registration

mode.

2 VIDEO, AUDIO, and TV keys

Use these keys to select the input you want to register.

3 Numeric keys

In the preset code registration mode, you use these

keys to enter the code numbers that let you control your

components.

4 POWER key

Once you have entered the setup code for another

component, you can press this key to turn power to that

component on or off. This lets you confirm that you

entered the code properly.

Step 1

Look up the setup code for the component you want

to control.

RC7

Write down all the applicable setup codes.

(This step is very important.)

Step 2

Hold down ENT key until the light

flashes twice (about three seconds).

For step 2 through step 8, make sure you

start the next step within five seconds of

completing the previous one. If more than

five seconds elapses between any two

steps, you will need to go back and start

over from step 2.

Step 3

Press the VIDEO, AUDIO, or TV

key to select the input you want to

advances you one by one through

the available input settings.) The

current input setting appears on

the display of the receiver.

Step 4

Use the numeric keys to enter the

Step 5

Press the POWER key to see if you

can turn the component on and

off. (If the component you want to

control has a mechanical power

key that cannot be operated by

remote control, press the PLAY

key or the TUNING/SKIP key to

test it.)

If the component does not respond when you try to

control it, return to step 4 and enter the next setup

code on the list. Repeat this procedure until you find

the code that matches the component.

ENT

Step 6

Press the ENT key to store the

code.

Step 7

Repeat steps 3 through 6 to enter the codes for each

component you want to control.

ENT

Step 8

Once you have finished registering

setup codes for all of the inputs,

hold down ENT key until the light

flashes twice (about three seconds).

This exists the registration mode.

If you accidentally exit the registration mode by pressing

the wrong key, you will not lose any setup codes you have

already saved.

Automatic input naming

In the initial factory setting, the remote control already has provisional component names registered for each input. Before you register setup codes,

pressing the input keys of the remote control causes the display to change from the factory preset input names of the receiver (VIDEO1, VIDEO2,

etc.) to the input names registered in the remote control (VCR1, VCR2, etc.). Once you have registered the appropriate setup codes for your

components, pressing the input keys of the remote control causes the display to change to the actually connected component names (LD, DVD,

etc.) for which you have registered setup codes.

The remote control supplied with this receiver is also

capable of controlling components from a variety of manu-

facturers once you register the appropriate setup codes

into the remote control unit.

Refer to "Remote operation of other components" for de-

tails about the operations available for each component.

Registering setup codes for other components

Find the setup code of the component to be registered.

Getting the most from your remote control

· Refer to the setup code lists to find the setup code for the

component to be registered.

RC7

Example: To register a CD made by KENWOOD, you would enter

"8028".

· When registering setup codes for KENWOOD audio components

which are connected to this unit by system control cords, use the

following codes to insure proper system control operation:

Cassette: 7000, CD: 8099, MD: 9000.

Hold down the ENT key until the light flashes twice.

Press the VIDEO, AUDIO, or TV key repeatedly to select

the desired component.

· At this time all inputs become available regardless of any earlier

registration.

· Example : To register the component connected to the VIDEO 1

jacks, select "VIDEO 1 (VCR1)".

· On models that include a "DVD 6ch" input selector, although a set up

code can be input the same way as other selectors, "DVD 6ch" will

remain as is on the display. It is not possible to change the name of

this input.

Low battery warning

Replace all four batteries with new ones when you notice a shortening

of the distance from which the remote control will operate or if the

remote control blinks 5 times when you press a key. The remote

control is designed to retain setup codes in memory while you

change batteries.

4 Use the numeric keys to enter the setup code.

5 Press the POWER key, and check to see that the compo-

nent you want to control turns on.

7 Repeat steps 3 to 6 to register additional components

until all components have been registered.

6 Press the ENT key to store the code you have just input.

· Example: Press "5258" to register a LD player made by KENWOOD.

· The light flashes once each time a number is entered.

· If an invalid setup code is entered the remote will output one long

blink, disregard that code and return to the beginning of step 4.

· If you push an invalid key, the remote will exit the setup mode.

· The light flashes twice.

· This code replaces any previous setup codes entered for the respec-

tive component.

If the component does not react, and there is more than one

setup code, enter another setup code and try again.

· PLAY, TUNING/SKIP (+/) or MULTI CONTROL key can also be

used instead of POWER key.

· If the component is already on, pressing POWER key will turn it off.

· If you have components that are not remote controllable, like a

record player (etc.), you will need to register a Non-IR code at the

respective input. This keeps the respective input in the remote

control's cyclic list so you can select it using the remote control.

Please consult the owner's manual of the components you are

connecting for information regarding remote controllability. The list

of Non-IR codes is included at the beginning of the Setup code

chart.

Note

Although each setup code is designed to work with a number of

different models, certain codes may not work with some models.

(Also, certain codes may only operate some of the functions available

on a given model.)

· Once registered, the display on the receiver shows the component

type instead of the default input name.

Example: if you register a VCR at the VIDEO 1 jacks, "VCR" appears

instead of "VIDEO 1 (VCR1)".

· After initial setup, any VIDEO or TV (TV1, TV2, CABLE) inputs that

have not been programmed with a setup code or Non-IR code are

deleted from the cyclic list. The PHONO input will be deleted if a

Non-IR code was not registered.

· The INPUT SELECTOR on the front panel of the receiver always

cycles through all inputs.

Once setup codes have been entered for all components,

hold down the ENT key until the light flashes twice.

This operation lets you operate the registered components.

KENWOOD audio components with system control turn on and off

automatically with the receiver via the system control connections.

Operating other components

Use the VIDEO, AUDIO, or TV keys to select the compo-

nent you desire.

· Pressing the VIDEO or AUDIO key also changes the input selector

on the receiver. If you do not want to change the current input, press

the SHIFT key before step

Note

Be sure to point the remote control at the remote sensor on the receiver

when you want to operate KENWOOD components connected by

system control cords. Otherwise, point the remote control at the

component you want to operate.
