Enter Numbers Play, Stop, Pause... Change Channels Simple Sound
The Volume and Mute buttons always control the sound regardless of what screen is
displayed. This is setup by using Copy and
Paste to copy the commands from your TV
or Audio system to the Volume and Mute
buttons on all of your other devices.
The transport buttons (Play, Stop, Skip-, Skip+
,
FF, REW and Pause) operate when the selected activity requires them (for example, if you
watch CABLE TV with a TiVo type of DVR,
these buttons will control the built-in DVR,
while if you are watching a DVD, these buttons will control the DVD player).
The Channel and Previous Channel buttons
will change channels when you have selected an activity like Watch CABLE TV or
Watch SAT TV.
The Number keypad will enter numbers for the
activity you’ve selected. Thus, for watching
Cable TV, you use the number keypad to enter
channel numbers, while when listening to CD,
the number keypad enters track numbers.

After adding devices using Quick Setup you
can modify the setting
Advanced: Replace a code for a device
already setup. This is useful when you purchase a new TV, DVD player, etc.
Review current codes for devices
already setup
Learn codes from another remote
Copy & paste functions from one
device to another,
Create macros and favorite channels
Edit and relocate buttons and erase
functions.
System: Adjust setting for the LCD screen,
button backlighting and low battery warning
as well as view memory usage.
Press and Hold the MAIN button for three
seconds to enter Setup Mode
Spend a few minutes trying all of the buttons
within each of the devices. If you need to
add a command or relabel a button you
can do this from the Advanced Setup Menu.
Once you have verified that everything is
working correctly, congratulate yourself! You
can now put all of your old remotes away
and enjoy the R40.
The R40 is simple to use. Press the MAIN
button to view a list of available devices and
press the corresponding button for the device
you wish to control.
Remember to use the MAIN Copy & Paste
feature to allow you to control common
devices right from the MAIN page.
Now use the UP, DOWN, and SEL buttons to
navigate while following the on screen
instructions to setup the remote.
You need to search the database built-in to
the R40 for the “code sets” for each of your
components. To do that you need to decide
what you are going to label each, the brand
name and the category. List your choices
here, before you start.

In most Home Theaters, the sound is controlled by
either the TV speakers or the Surround Sound speakers. It is inconvenient to have to press MAIN then TV,
then press the Volume up, Volume Down or Mute
buttons. Instead, copy the commands from the TV or
AUDIO device to all your other devices.
Simple Sound means that you simply press
Volume Up, Down or Mute anywhere and your
sound volume changes.
Select Copy and Paste from the Advanced Setup
menu to setup Simple Sound convenience.
Note:
The Copy and Paste feature is not limited to
volume and can also be applied to channel or other
functions. If you find yourself switching to a particular device frequently to use a group of controls, consider using Copy and Paste for another group, as
listed here:
VOL - Volume Up, Volume Down and Mute
CH -
Channel Up, Channel Down and Prev. Channel
PLAY -
Play, Stop, Pause, Rewind and Fast Forward
MENU -
Guide, Menu, Info, Exit, Up, Down, Left, Right, Sel
NUMBERS -
The number keypad including ENT and ./-.
POWER ON- The Power On Button only
POWER OFF- The Power Off Button only
Practice turning off the system by pressing
MAIN, selecting a device, then pressing the OFF
button. Repeat this with all of your devices.
Note that you have to press three buttons for
each device to turn it off. Wouldn’t it be easier
to simply press MAIN, then OFF and watch all
of your devices turn off, one after another?
That’s what a macro does. You specify that
when a particular button is pressed, a whole
sequence of commands goes out, one at a time.
To setup a macro, practice with the R40 first.
You need to record each step you make, so
familiarize yourself with the routine then try
recording it. If the routine is complicated, don’t
worry. The R40 can record up to 255 steps to
one button as a Macro. Just write it down first,
so that it is easy for you to record.
Remembering channel numbers for all your
favorite channels is a chore you don’t need. In a
few minutes, you can record macros that enter
the channel number, the enter button (or the ./button) just as you do. The R40 can record up
to 48 favorite channels.
Tip: If you don’t see the channel logo for one of
your favorites, just use one of the blank colored
icons and type in the name of the channel.
Using Advanced Setup Menu you can relabel
the name of the Main Menu, the device name
and buttons inside a device menu.
You can also switch the location of a device on
the main menu with another device you have
already setup. You can also switch the location
of a button within a device menu to another
location within that devices menu.

After Basic Setup
From this screen you can select from three Setup
Options:
1. Quick Setup: Simply add a new device
2. Advanced: Add a device using codes,
review current device codes, learn codes
from another remote, copy & paste functions from one device to another, create
macros and favorite channels, edit and
relocate buttons and erase functions.
3. System: Adjust setting for the LCD
screen, button backlighting and low battery warning as well as view memory
usage.
We suggest you begin by initially using the
Quick Setup option to add all of your devices.
Then use advanced setup to customize.
You can move icons or re-arrange them.
However, you can delete devices and recreate
them in another position.
If you install a component that is too new to be in
the R40’s database, you can use the learn feature
in Basic Setup to learn each of the commands you
need from the original device remote.
Some tips if you use the learn feature:
1. Start with the remotes about an inch apart
pointed at each other (head to head) as
shown here:
2. Put brand new alkaline batteries in the
original remote control, even if it appears
to work at extreme range now.
3. When the R40 says READY, press and hold
the button you want to teach. Release it
when the R40 says GOOD.
No more remote clutter!
