INTRODUCTION AND FEATURES

Thank you for choosing Harman Kardon®!

Your CP Series system combines the superior performance and practical
flexibility of high-quality separate audio/video components with the
convenience of a complete system in one carton.You will need to
provide a video display or television, but you may also add almost any
source device,ranging from a cassette deck or VCR all the way up
to the latest high-definition digital cable or satellite television set-top
box (or even products that may be released in the future).

The single RCP 5 remote replaces the original remotes supplied with
the AVR 146 receiver and DVD 38 DVD player.Although the RCP 5
operates both products,along with a host of other products you may
have added to your system, this manual describes a few differences
from the original remotes.The most significant is the addition of EzSet

®

,
an automatic speaker-level calibration process that enables the receiver
to perform properly without your having to supply additional metering
devices or perform a tedious calibration procedure.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The instructions in this manual on running
the EzSet procedure take the place of Step Four of the Initial
Setup process described in the AVR 146 manual.Although you
may still calibrate the speakers manually if you so desire,we
strongly recommend that you first use the more convenient and
simpler EzSet process.

To obtain the maximum enjoyment from your new home theater
system, we urge you to read this manual, as well as the manuals
included with the system components,and refer back to it as you
become more familiar with its features and their operation. If you
have any questions about this product, its installation or its operation,
please contact your retailer or custom installer,or visit our Web site
at www.harmankardon.com.

REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS

The RCP 5 remote is capable of controlling 11 devices,including the
AVR 146 and the DVD 38 included in the CP 55 system.During the
installation process,you may program the codes for each of your source
components into the remote.Each time you wish to use the codes for
any component, first press that component’s selector.This changes the
button functions to the appropriate codes for that product.

NOTE: Several of the Input Selectors are shared between two
devices.The selector button will light in red when the remote is in
the device mode printed on the button, and it will light in green for
the device mode printed above the button.To switch between the
two device modes,press the selector

twice

quickly in succession.
The selector will remain in the last-selected mode until the next
time you press it twice quickly.

For example, the first time you press the DVD Button, the button
will light in red, indicating that the remote is in DVD mode.If you
press another selector,such as the VID3 Selector,and then press
the DVD Button again, the DVD Button will remain red, indicating
the remote is still in DVD mode.Now press the DVD Button twice
quickly.At the first press the Button will light in red, indicating that
the remote is in DVD mode.On the second press the button will
turn green, indicating that the remote is now in CD mode.If you
press a different selector and return to the DVD/CD Selector, you
will observe that the remote is still in CD mode.

Each Input Selector has been preprogrammed to control certain types
of components,with only the codes specific to each brand and model
changing,depending on which product code is programmed.The
device types programmed into each selector (except HDMI 1 and 2)
may not be changed.

DVD: Controls DVD players and recorders.The DVD Button functions

are labeled in blue on the remote.

CD: Controls CD players and recorders.
Tape: Controls cassette decks.
The Bridge/DMP: Controls an iPod docked in The Bridge.
Video 1: Controls VCRs,TiVo

®

and PVRs.

Video 2: Controls cable and satellite television set-top boxes.
Video 3: Controls televisions and other video displays.
HDMI 1 and 2: Each code set controls a source device (such as

a VCR/PVR,DVD player or cable/satellite set-top box) connected to
one of these two inputs.

For example, if you have inserted a disc in your CD player and you
would like to skip ahead three tracks,but you then find that the volume
is too loud, you would follow this procedure:

1. Press the CD Input Selector to switch to the codes that control your

CD player.If the remote is in DVD mode,press the selector twice quickly
to switch to CD mode,indicated by the selector turning green.

2. Press the Play Button (in the Transport Controls section) if the disc

is not already playing.

3. Press the Skip Up Button three times to advance three tracks.

4. Press the AVR Button to access the volume controls.

5. Press the Volume Down Button until the volume level is satisfactory.

Any given button may have different functions,depending on which
component is being controlled.The buttons are labeled with some of
these functions,with the receiver’s functions shown in white or gray,and
the DVD player’s functions shown in blue.For example,the Sleep and
DSP Surround Buttons are labeled for use as Channel Up/Down Buttons
when controlling a television or cable box. See Table A1 in the Appendix
for listings of the different functions for each type of component.

NOTE: Although we have described the applicable DVD functions
in this section, we strongly recommend that you review the
DVD 38 manual for more information about using these functions.

setting affects the configuration of the DVD 38’s 2- and 6-Channel
Analog Audio Outputs.Stop playback of the current disc to use this
selector.

Macros: These buttons may be programmed to execute long com-

mand sequences with a single button press.They are useful for pro­gramming the command to turn on or off all of your components,or for
accessing specialized functions for a different component than the one
you are currently operating.

Dolby®Surround Mode Selector:The first press of this button

will select the last-used Dolby Surround mode,and each additional
press will cycle through the variants that are currently available.Not
all modes are available with all sources; see the AVR 146 manual for
more information.

DTS®Surround Mode Selector/A-B Repeat:The first press of

this button will select the last-used DTS Digital mode if DTS processing is
available,and each additional press will toggle between the 2.0 and 5.1

BATTERIES

The RCP 5 remote control uses three AAA batteries,which are included.
To remove the battery cover located on the back of the remote,fir mly

press the ridged depression and slide the cover toward the top of
the remote.

Insert the batteries as shown in Figure 1, making sure to observe
the correct polarity.

Figure 1 – Remote Battery Compartment

When using the remote,remember to point the lens toward the front
panel of the AVR 146 or DVD 38. Make sure no objects,such as
furniture,are blocking the remote’s path. Bright lights,fluorescent lights
and plasma video displays may interfere with the remote’s functioning.
The remote has a range of about 20 feet, depending on the lighting
conditions.It may be used at an angle of up to 30 degrees to either
side of the component.

If the remote seems to operate intermittently, or if pressing a button
on the remote does not cause the AVR Selector or one of the Input
Selectors to light up,then make sure the batteries have been inserted
correctly, or replace all three batteries with fresh ones.

Programming Sources

The RCP 5 remote is capable of controlling not only the receiver and
DVD player included in your CP system, but it may also be programmed
to control many brands and models of VCRs,CD players,cable boxes,
satellite receivers,cassette decks and TVs,as well as an iPod (not
included) docked in Harman Kardon’s optional The Bridge.

It may help to think of the remote as a book with pages.Each page
represents the button functions for a different device.In order to access
the functions for a particular device,you first need to turn to that page,
that is,switch the remote to that device mode.This is done by pressing
the AVR Button to access the codes that control the receiver,or the
Input Selectors to access the codes for the devices programmed into
the remote.

You may have noticed that three of the Input Selectors look different
from the others (see Figure 2). For the DVD/CD,TAPE/The Bridge and
HDMI 1/HDMI 2 Selectors,there is a primar y source, whose name is
printed on the button, and a secondary source, whose name is printed
above the button.

When the remote is in the device mode for the primary source (e.g.,
DVD) pressing the device selector will cause it to light in red.When the
remote is in the secondary source’s device mode,the selector will light
in green when pressed.

To switch between the primary and secondary device modes,press the
selector twice quickly in succession.The selector will retain this selection
until the next time you toggle between the primary and secondary
device modes.That is,if you press the DVD/CD Selector twice quickly
so that the CD source is activated, then press another source selector,
such as Video 1,the next time you press the DVD/CD Selector, the
remote will return to the CD device mode.

The RCP 5 remote is factory-programmed to control the AVR 146,the
DVD 38 and an iPod docked in The Bridge. If you have other source
devices in your system, such as a VCR, or a cable or satellite television
set-top box, follow these steps to program the correct codes into the
remote:

1. Using the codes in Tables A2–A9 of the Appendix, look up the

product type (e.g.,cable TV box) and the brand name of your source.
The number(s) listed are potential candidates for the correct code set
for your particular device.

2.Turn on your source device.

3.This step places the remote in Program mode and varies slightly,

depending on which Input Selector is being programmed. Refer to
Figure 2.

a) DVD,Tape,Video 1,Video 2 and Video 3 Sources: Press and

hold the Input Selector until the Program Indicator LED starts to
flash, then release it. Follow the directions in Step 4.

b) CD Source: Press the DVD/CD Input Selector twice quickly so

that it turns green, then hold it until the selector relights and the
Program LED flashes.Follow the directions in Step 4.

c) HDMI 1 Source: Press and hold the Input Selector until the

selector relights and the Program Indicator flashes,then release it.
Next, press the Input Selector that corresponds to the device type
you want to program into the HDMI 1 mode,i.e., DVD,VCR or
CBL/SAT.Then follow the directions in Step 4.

d) HDMI 2 Source: Press and release the Input Selector once, then

quickly press the Input Selector again so that it turns green, then
release it. Now press and hold the Input Selector until the selector
relights and the Program Indicator flashes,then release it. Next,
press the Input Selector that corresponds to the device type you
want to program into the HDMI 2 mode,i.e., DVD,VCR or
CBL/SAT.Then follow the directions in Step 4.

Figure 2 – Input Selectors

4. Enter a code from Step 1 above.
a) If the device turns off,then press the Input Selector again to accept

the code;the selector will flash.The remote will exit the Program mode.

b) If the device does not turn off, try entering another code.If you

run out of codes,you may search through all of the codes in the
remote’s library for that product type by pressing the

⁄ or ¤

Button repeatedly until the device turns off.When the device tur ns
off,enter the code by pressing the Input Selector, which will flash.
The remote then exits Program mode.

NOTE: When you enter a valid three-digit code,the Program
Indicator LED will change color to green. However, entering an
invalid code changes the color of the LED to red.

5. Once you have accepted a code,it’s a good idea to try using some

other functions to control the device.Sometimes manufacturers
use the same power code for several different models,while other
codes will vary.You may wish to repeat this process until you’ve
programmed a satisfactory code set that operates most of the
functions you frequently use.

6.You may find out which code number you have programmed by

pressing and holding the Input Selector to enter Program mode.Then
press the Set Button, and the LED will flash in the code sequence.
One flash represents “1”, two flashes for “2”and so forth.A series of
many fast flashes represents “0”. Record the codes programmed for
each device in Table 1.

PROGRAMMING SOURCES

Table 1 – Remote Control Codes

*

Do not reprogram the DVD Source selector unless you are replacing
the DVD player included in the CP 55 system with another product.

If you are unable to locate a code set that correctly operates your
source device,it will not be possible to use the RCP 5 remote to control
that device.However,you may still connect the source to the AVR 146
and operate it using the device’s original remote control.

Most of the button labels on the remote describe the button’s function
when used to control the AVR 146 (white or gray labels) or DVD 38
(blue labels). However, the button may perform a very different function
when used to control another device.Refer to the Remote Control
Function List,Table A1 in the Appendix,for a list of each button’s
functions with the various product types.

If you wish, you may program macros,which are preprogrammed
code sequences that execute many code commands with a single
button press.You may also program “punch-through”codes,which
allow the remote to operate the volume,channel or transport controls
of another device without having to switch the remote’s device mode.
See page 12 for instructions on these advanced programming
functions.

NOTE: The RCP 5 remote is preprogrammed to operate the
transport controls of the DVD 38 when the AVR or VID2 or VID3
device

is selected.

You may change this punch-through program-

ming at any time,as explained in the Advanced Functions section.

USING EzSET

11

Using EzSet

This section replaces Step Four in the Initial Setup section of the
AVR 146 owner’s guide.

An essential step in setting up your multichannel audio/video receiver
is calibrating the channel output levels so that they all sound equally
loud at the listening position.This sets a baseline, enabling the
director to create a desired mood by moving the dialogue,action
and ambient sounds around the soundstage,resulting in a more
realistic presentation.

EzSet takes the guesswork out of the manual process described in
the AVR 146 owner’s guide, replacing multiple steps with a simple
button press.

By now you should have connected all of your speakers and sources
and your video display.You should have turned on the receiver and
used the Manual Setup menus to program each of your speakers as
Large or Small.

Sit in the listening position with the remote control, and make sure
to eliminate external noises for the few minutes needed to run the
EzSet procedure.

Use the volume control buttons on the remote to adjust the volume
to –15dB.

Point the remote at the receiver. Press and hold the SPL Button until
the LED remains steadily lit, then press the “5” key.See Figure 3. The
procedure works best if you hold the remote at about ear level, pointed
toward the receiver.Try not

to tilt the remote out of line with the AVR’s

front panel.

Figure 3 – EzSet (SPL) Button

The receiver will generate a loud test tone,which sounds like static.
In fact, it’s a tone that simultaneously uses all frequencies from 20Hz
to 20kHz.

The tone should be heard first through the front left speaker.It will
circulate to the other speakers in this order: front left, center,front
right, surround right, surround left. The tone pauses for a few moments
at each speaker position, while a microphone built into the remote
measures the loudness (sound pressure level) of the tone.The remote
contains programming that compares the loudness of the tone at each
position to a reference and sends commands to the receiver to adjust
the output level for that channel until the tone matches the reference.

A tri-color LED on the remote indicates EzSet’s findings.The LED turns
red if the channel’s level is too high,amber if the level is too low,and
green when the level is correct.

The result is that each speaker will be heard equally loudly at the
listening position.This is important for movie directors, who adjust the
loudness of each channel in the recording to produce a desired sound
presentation. Usually,the director reduces the loudness of,or even the
presence of information in the surround channels so as not to distract
the viewer from the main action taking place on screen. If the test tone
sounds as loud in the rear speakers as it does coming from the other
speakers,then the receiver is performing correctly.

As the tone circulates to each speaker position, the semi-OSD system
and the front panel will display a message reporting which channel the
tone is being sent to.Make sure that the message matches the speaker
you are actually hearing the tone from, and that you are hearing a tone
from each speaker.If that isn’t the case,press the Test Button

twice

to
stop EzSet, and turn off the receiver and unplug it. Then check your
speaker-wire connections.

The semi-OSD system and front panel will also display the level adjust­ments being made.The levels may vary from –10dB to +10dB.If you
notice that the levels for all speakers are being adjusted very far in either
direction, then stop EzSet by pressing the Test Button

twice

, and adjust
the master volume level higher to compensate for EzSet pushing each
speaker close to +10dB, or lower to compensate for EzSet lowering
each speaker close to –10dB.

As the levels are being adjusted, the LED on the remote will change
until it is green for all channels.

The tone will circulate a second time,and then the procedure will end.

NOTE: In order to optimize performance for each of the many
surround modes and their variants,the AVR 146 is able to
associate a different set of output level settings with each mode.
While this results in extremely realistic reproduction of surround
sound presentations,it does require that you determine the
correct settings for each surround mode.

The first time you turn on the AVR, it will default to the Logic 7
Music mode.Harman Kardon recommends that at initial setup
you use the default Logic 7 mode,and then copy down the
settings produced by EzSet. Change the surround mode either
by using the on-screen Surround Setup menu, or by pressing
the desired surround mode group button on the remote,and
reenter the same settings for each new mode,selecting all
modes you are likely to use.

If you prefer,you may run EzSet for the major surround modes,
such as Logic 7 (select either Cinema or Music), Dolby (select
Dolby Pro Logic

®

II Movie) and DTS (select DTS Neo:6).Then
you may copy the resulting level settings for the other mode
variants within each group.

Advanced users may rerun EzSet for each mode individually.

ADVANCED FUNCTIONS

The RCP 5 remote control not only operates the AVR 146 and DVD 38,
but it also serves as a universal remote that may be programmed to
operate many of your other home theater components.The punch­through and macro features add even more flexibility and versatility.

Punch-Through Programming

The RCP 5 remote allows you to select one component for the remote
to operate,while simultaneously setting certain groups of controls to
operate another component. For example,while using the AVR to control
surround modes and other audio functions,you may wish to operate the
transport controls of your DVD player.Or while using the remote to con­trol video functions on your TV, you may wish to use your cable box to
change channels and the AVR to control the volume.

All of this is possible using punch-through programming.

NOTE: It is not necessary to program the remote to control
your DVD player’s transport controls while the AVR or a device
connected to the VID2 or VID3 inputs is in use,as the remote
is preprogrammed at the factory with this function.

To program punch-through control while operating any device:

1. Press and hold the Input Selector (or AVR Selector) for the main
device the remote will be operating until the Input Selector lights,
the Program Indicator LED flashes and the remote enters Program
mode.

2. Select the type of punch-through programming:

a) To program volume control punch-through, press the Volume

Up Button.

b) To program channel control punch-through, press the Volume

Down Button.

NOTE: Do not program channel-control punch-through for the
AVR.Doing so will override the Sleep command, which is not
accessible in any other way, and the DSP Surround Mode
Selector.If you have inadvertently done so,repeat Steps 1
through 3, but press the AVR Selector in both Steps 1 and 3.

c) To program Transport Control punch-through, press the Play Button.

3. Press the Input Selector (or AVR Selector) for the device whose
volume,channel or transport controls you would like to be active
while operating the device you selected in the first step.The LED
will flash green to confirm the programming.

For example,if you wish to watch your TV (programmed into the Video 3
button) while changing channels using your cable box (Video 2), you
would first press the Video 3 Button until the LED flashed.You would
then press the Volume Down Button, followed by the Video 2 Button.

To undo punch-through programming,follow the same steps as above,
but press the same Input (or AVR) Selector in Steps 1 and 3.

NOTE: As mentioned earlier, the AVR,VID2 and VID3 devices
are factory-programmed with transport-control punch-through
to operate the DVD player.You may reprogram these selectors
following the instructions in Steps 1 through 3 to operate another
device,such as a CD player.

If you wish to reprogram these selectors to have no transport­control punch-through, follow the same procedure as for
programming punch-through, but in Step 3 press either of the
other two of these three selectors.For example,to remove
transport-control punch-through from the VID2 device,follow the
instructions in Steps 1 through 3, but press either the AVR or
VID3 Button in Step 3.

Macros

Macros are used to program sequences of up to 19 commands
that are executed with a single button press.Macros are well suited
for Power On and Off commands, to send out a favorite multidigit
channel number with one button press,or to have the ability to send
out a code sequence to control another device while the remote is
operating one device but with more flexibility than the built-in punch­through controls.

Some commands may not be programmed into macros: Mute,Dim,
Channel Up/Down and any of the Surround Mode commands.

NOTE: Use caution when programming complicated macros.It
isn’t possible to program a pause or delay before sending com­mands after powering on, and the component may not be ready
to respond to commands instantaneously after powering on.

To program, or “record,”a macro, follow these steps:

1. Simultaneously press one of the four Macro Buttons or the Power On
Button and the Mute Button at the same time to enter Program mode.

2. Press the Input (or AVR) Selector for each device before you enter
commands to be transmitted to that device.This step counts as one
of the 19 commands allowed for each macro.

NOTE: Even if you previously switched one of the dual-source
Input Selectors (DVD/CD,TAPE/THE BRIDGE, HDMI 1/HDMI 2)
to the primary or secondary source prior to programming the
macro,the remote always requires you to press any of these
selectors

once

to program the macro to select the primary

source and

twice

for the secondary source.

3. For the Power On command, do not press the Power On Button.
Press the Mute Button instead.

4. Press the Power Off Button to program the Power Off command.

5. Press the Sleep Button to end the programming process.

13

It isn’t possible to “edit”a command within a macro. However,you
may erase the macro as follows:

1. Simultaneously press and hold the Mute Button and the Macro
Button containing the macro until the Program LED flashes.

2. Press the Surround Button to erase the macro.

Here are two macros that you may find useful when listening to an
iPod docked in The Bridge:

The purpose of the first macro is to access the DMP SETTING menu
while listening to The Bridge with one button press:

1. Simultaneously press and hold the M1(or other unused) Macro
Button and the Mute Button until the Program LED flashes.

2. Press the AVR Button (the first command switches the remote
to AVR mode).

3. Press the OSD Button (the second command activates the
on-screen menu system).

4. Press the Set Button (the third command selects the INPUT SETUP
menu; this macro assumes the current source is The Bridge).

5. Press the

¤ Button three times (the fourth, fifth and sixth com-

mands navigate to the GO TO DMP SETTING line).

6. Press the Set Button again (the seventh command selects the
DMP SETTING menu).

7. Press the Sleep Button to end the programming process.You have
now programmed the first macro,which will display the DMP SET­TING menu after you have selected The Bridge as your source input.

After you have made your selections in the DMP SETTING menu, such
as turning on Repeat Playback or Shuffle mode,the second macro
enables you to exit the on-screen menu system and return the remote
to The Bridge mode,again with just one button press.

1. Simultaneously press and hold the M2 (or other unused) Macro
Button and the Mute Button until the Program LED flashes.

2. Press the OSD Button (the first command exits the on-screen menu
system; this macro assumes that you have not let the OSD time out).

3. Press the Tape/The Bridge Input Selector twice (the second and
third commands switch the selector to The Bridge mode and select
The Bridge as the source).This step is required even if you already
switched the selector’s mode before programming the macro.

4. Press the Sleep Button to end the programming process.You have
now programmed the second macro,which may be used after run­ning the first macro to exit the OSD system quickly and return the
remote’s operation to The Bridge.

Resetting the Remote

To reset the remote to its factory defaults,simultaneously press and
hold any Input Selector and the “0”Numeric Key.When the LED flashes
amber,enter the code “333”.When the green LED goes out, the remote
will have been fully reset.
