TENTATIVE

Radio Frequency (RF) and Infrared (IR) Operating Freedom

The RC-8000 is a remote control unit that lets you use either RF (radio frequency) transmission or IR (infrared) signals to control your A/V receiver
and related gear such as your TV and DVD player, as well as other control components such as a powered video screen and lighting controls in your
home theater. RF transmissions are useful when you want to operate systems that are installed in locations out of the reach of IR beams.

The RC-8000 unit is equipped with a large 320 x 240 dot LCD touch display with a backlight for easy operation in the dark.

The commands of up to 23 components can be programmed into the RC-8000, and its buttons can be rearranged, added, deleted, and their
names changed, giving you terrific flexibility in customizing the unit for your home theater or listening room. Of course, the RC-8000 also provides
convenient Preset Memory, Learning, and System Call functions.

■

RF Transmission, for Easy Multi-room Operation

Since RF signals are transmitted in all directions and can even go
through walls, they are convenient for controlling systems from other
rooms not too far away.

■

Choose from 2 different RF bands, and use dedicated ID codes to

distinguish among multiple RC-8001ST charger base stations.

■

Large LCD Touch Panel Display

The RC-8000’s large 320 x 240 dot LCD incorporates a touch panel
that lets you operate it directly by touching the display. It includes a
backlight to facilitate operation in the dark as well.

■

Editing Functions, for Easy Customization

You can program the RC-8000 to control up to 23 different compo­nents. You can provide each button with a unique label indicating the
command you have assigned it. You can change the assignments at
any time, or add new buttons and delete old ones, to make the RC-8000
work exactly the way you want it to.

■

Menu screen is easily operated using the GUI (graphical user

interface) and the joy stick.

■

Independent Buttons

Independent buttons have been provided on the main unit for frequently­used operations, such as volume control, channel selection, muting,
and backlighting activation.

■

Learning function

The RC-8000 contains a large-capacity flash memory that lets you store
the commands from your existing remote controls.

This learning function is more versatile than that of most remote controllers
available today.

■

Preset Memory

The RC-8000 is pre-programmed with a wide variety of commands of
A/V components made by a number major manufacturers. Simply
select the name of the manufacturer from the component preset list
and the RC-8000 will operate that component.

■

System Call

Up to 20 System Call settings (a programmed series of sequentially­issued commands) can be stored. The System Call programs you
have stored can be easily checked on the LCD display.

■

User Backup

This function lets you back up your customized settings in the controller’s
built-in flash memory, to your customized settings and learned commands
from memory loss due to battery exhaustion.

■

USB Support

The RC-8000 includes a USB port that lets you connect it to a PC
where you can back up settings or do editing work.

■

Auto Power Off

To conserve battery power, the Auto Power Off function automatically
blanks the LCD screen after a certain period of time elapses. This time
period can also be easily customized, as can the backlighting time.

■

Non-slip Side Grip

The RC-8000 provides non-slip side grips to make the controller easier to handle.

RC-8001ST Charger Base Station

The RC-8001ST is equipped with a wired data output terminal as well as an IR emitter termi­nal. This wired data output can be connected directly to the AVR-5800 or to the data input port
of a Denon RC-616 IR re-transmitter, and you can connect an IR supplemental emitter such as
Denon’s RC-618, or other IR emitter types. The RC-8001ST also provides a battery charging
function. The Ni-Cad battery pack that comes with the RC-8001ST is inserted into the RC­8000, and you can charge the batteries in the RC-8000 by simply placing it onto the RC­8001ST charger base station. The excessive charge prevention function prolongs the Ni-Cad
battery life, even if the RC-8000 is left in the charger base station for an extended period.
