Please note that an infrared remote control can only be used up to a certain distance from the unit. Objects
situated between the Visualizer and the infrared remote control, and weak batteries, interfere with
reception.

Infrared Remote Control

If you want to work with more than one Visualizer in the same room, the units should be set to different
infrared codes, in order to control them all individually.
The IR code of the Visualizer has to match the code of the remote control.
To change the IR code, enter the "Advanced Settings / Miscellaneous Settings" and
set the "IR Code" to A, B, C or D (code A is default). To change the IR code on the remote control,
simultaneously press PRESET 1, PRESET 2 and ZOOM TELE

ress PRESET 1, PRESET 2 and ZOOM WIDE

on-screen menu, go to

(#10) (#15). Each time this key
combination is used, the code switches from A to B, C, D ... A ...in the given order.
For resetting the remote control to code A, simultaneously p .

Different IR Codes

If the Visualizer can only be controlled from a close distance, or if it
cannot be controlled at all with the infrared remote control, you may
have to change the batteries.
Open the cover on the back of the remote control and replace the two

1.5V AAA (Code LR03) batteries with new ones.

Check the polarity of the batteries!
Recycle the batteries!
