FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS
Basic Operation
The Arcam CR80 is pre-programmed to operate Arcam amplifiers, DVD
players, CD players and AM/FM tuners. For full operating details, please
read the rest of the manual.
To control an AV component, first press the relevant key in the SELECT
DEVICE area of the remote.
In addition, this remote control contains a library of remote codes for other
manufacturers of AV system components, listed in the back of this manual.
The CR80 also has the capability of learning remote functions that are not
available in the code library. In order to make best use of the limited me
mory available for learning, we strongly recommend that you use the
library codes where possible for your non-Arcam components, and then

PROGRAMMING OTHER
COMPONENTS
The ARCAM CR80 can control up to eight differerit components. Perform
the following instructions for each component you want controlled:
1Turn on a component (e.g. VCR) and. If applicable, insert media
(e,g„ cassette or disc).
NOTE: Please read steps 2-4 completely before proceeding. We recommend
highlighting or writing down the codes and device you wish to program
before moving onto step 2.
2 On the ARCAM CR80, press a component key once (i.e., CBL, DVD,
VCR, TV, SAT, CD, or AUX). This feature is not applicable for the
AMP key because it has only one dedicated code in this mode for
Arcam amplifiers.
3 Press and hold SET until the LED blinks twice, then release SET.
4 Use the Manufacturer's Codes (in the back of the manual, page
24 ■ 27) to locate the type of component and brand name and then
enter the first four-digit code for your component, tf performed
correctly, the LED will blink twice,
NOTE: if the LED did not blink twice, then repeat steps 2 through 4 and try
entering the same code again.
5Aim the ARCAM CR80 at the component and press PWR once. It
should turn off. If it does not respond, repeat steps 2-4, trying each
code for your brand until you find one that works, If it still does not
work, try searching for the code (see Searching For Your Code).
NOTE: If the device does not have a PWR key, press PLAY.
6 Repeat steps 1 through 4 for each corriponent you want the ARCAM
CR80 to control.
NOTE: If you want the Arcam AV8 zone 2, system code 19 function, then
this device must be setup under the AUX key only.
Page 5
SEARCHING FOR YOUR CODE
If your device does not respond to the ARCAM CR80 after trying all codes
listed for your brand, or if your brand is not listed at all, try searching for
your code,
For example, to search for a code for your TV:
1On the ARCAM CR80, press TV once.
2Press and hold SET until the LED blinks twice, then release SET,
3 Enter 9-9-1. The LED will blink twice.
4Aim the remote control at the TV and slowly alternate between
pressing PWR and TV. Stop when the TV turns off.
NOTE: In the search mode, the ARCAM CR80 will send IR codes from its
library to the selected device, starting with the most popular code first
5 Press SET once to lock in the code.
6 To search for the codes of your other components, repeat steps 1
through 5, but substitute the appropriate key (i.e„ CBL, DVD, VCR,TV, SAT, CD, or AUX) for the <Cable, VCR, Satellite, CD or Tuner)
component you are searching for.
NOTE: This feature is not applicable for the AMP key because it has only
one dedicated code in this mode which controls the Arcam AVR200,
AVR 100 and AV8.
CAUTION
Do not the reset commands for other Universal Electronics
remote controls on the CR80. Resets will permanently delete
key functions in the lower section of the remote, and the
warranty on this remote control will be invalidated.
LEARNING A FUNCTION
The ARCAM CR80 can be setup to learn a function from an original remote.
To optimize success, the learning feature should be conducted in an area
where there is a low level of IR emission. High levels of "natural light" or
energy efficient fluorescent lights could interfere with a learning event.
Example: To learn the "mono/stereo" function from your original TV
remote control onto the MODE(GUIDE)-key of your ARCAM CR80.
1 Place the ARCAM CR80 and your original remote control on a
flat surface. Make sure the ends which you normally point at
your device are facing each other. Keep the remotes at a
distance of 1 to 2 inches (2 to 5 cm).
2 On the ARCAM CR80; Press and hold the SET key until the LED
blinks twice. The LED will blink once then twice.
3 Press 9-7-5 (the LED blinks twice).
4Press the device key on the ARCAM CR80 remote to select the
mode to which you want to copy the learned function (Example:
TV key).
5 Press the key on the ARCAM CR80 remote where you want to place
the learned function (Example: MODE<GUIDE)-key). The LED will
flash rapidly.
6 Press and hold the key (on your original remote control) that you
want to copy until the LED blinks twice (Example: mono/stereo
key).
7 If you want to copy other functions within the same mode, simply
repeat steps 5 until 7 pressing the next key you want to copy by
learning (up to limit of memory).
8 To exit the learning mode, press and hold the SET key until
the LEO blinks twice.
9 To access a learned function, press SET then press the
appropriate key,
Deleting a learned function:
To delete a learned function, either overwrite it with a new function on
the same key. or use the following sequence:
1 On the ARCAM CR80; Press and hold the SET key until the LED
blinks twice, The LED will blink once then twice.
2 Press 9-7-6 (the LED blinks twice).
3Press the device key on the ARCAM CR80 remote to select the
mode to which you want to copy the learned function (Example:
TV key).
4 Press the key to be deleted.
5 Again, press the key to be deleted.The LED will blink twice.

RE-ASSIGNING DEVICE KEYS
The ARCAM CR80 can be set up to control a second TV or VCR. or any com
bination of eight home entertainment components.
For example, to have the ARCAM CR80 control a TV, a Cable Converter, and
two VCRs, you will need to re-assign the unused AUX key to operate the
second VCR as follows:
1On the ARCAM CR80, press and hold SET until the LED blinks twice,
then release SET.
2 Enter 9-9-2. The LED will blink twice.
3 Press VCR once, then press AUX once.
4 The AUX key Is now ready to be programmed for your second VCR.
See Programming other components.
To re-assign other device keys, repeat steps 1 through 4 by substituting the
key sequence from the below chart for the most popular components:

The ARCAM CR80 is set to control volume of a component through your TV
while in the TV. VCR, Cable, or Satellite mode. However, in an Audio mode
(i,e„ DVD, AMP, or CD), you have separate control of your audio compo
nent's volume. If your TV is not remote controllable, or if you want volume
to be controlled by a different component, you can change the Volume
Lock setting to control a volume through a non-associated mode (e.g.,
through the cable in the TV mode).
To change Volume Lock to another mode:
1 On the ARCAM CR80, press and hold SET until the LED blinks twice,
then release SET.
2Enter 9-9-3 and then press the device key where you want to
control the volume to once (except TV). The LED will blink twice.
3Now, whenever you press VOL +, VOL - or MUTE, volume will be
controlled by your device choice.
To change Volume Lock back to the TV mode:
1 On the ARCAM CR80, press and hold SET until the LED blinks twice,
then release SET.
2 Enter 9-9-3 and then press TV. The LED will blink twice.
3Now, whenever you press VOL +, VOL - or MUTE on the ARCAM
CR80, volume will be controlled by your TV.
To release Volume Lock:
