Adjusting Volume Control with your Remote

Changing Volume Control

You can control the volume of a component through its associated mode (i.e. through the cable in Cable mode, through the TV in TV mode, and through the Auxiliary device in AUX mode.)

1. Press and hold the mode key of the device for which you want to control the volume until the device light flashes twice. The light of the mode you want should be now be on.

2. Enter 993. Press TV or AUX until the red light flashes twice.

3. The device's mode light will blink twice, showing that volume control has been transferred to that device.

Changing the Volume Control

NOTE: The different buttons on remote controls vary by manufacturer and those on your equipment may look different than the ones displayed on this web page.

When you receive your new digital remote control, it will be set up to control volume through the various devices you hook up (through the TV, VCR and any AUX equipment like a DVD player). For example, if you enter the TV mode by pressing TV at the top of your remote, volume will be controlled through the TV. If you have a TV that does not have a remote control, you can set it up so that your remote can control the volume of your TV through CABLE while you are in the TV mode.

If you change the volume lock setting to the TV or Cable mode, the volume control for all modes except AUX will be changed. Or, all modes will be controlled by the AUX mode if you change the volume lock setting to AUX.

Also, it is advised not to set the volume lock setting to VCR. The volume controls will not work if you do.

Changing the Volume Lock setting to the TV mode:
1. On the remote control, press TV then SETUP until TV indicator light flashes twice.
2. Enter 993.
3. The TV light will flash again twice.
4. The volume is now controlled by your TV. If you press (+/-) on the Volume button or MUTE, your TV will be turning the volume up, down or off.
Changing the Volume Lock setting to the CABLE mode:
1. On the remote control, press CABLE then SETUP until TV indicator light flashes twice.
2. Enter 993.
3. The CABLE light will flash again twice.
4. The volume is now controlled by your Cable Set-top Box. If you press (+/-) on the Volume button or MUTE, your Cable Box will be turning the volume up, down or off.
To Change the Volume Lock setting to the AUX mode:
1. On the remote control, press AUX then SETUP until TV indicator light flashes twice.
2. Enter 993.
3. The AUX light will flash again twice.
4. The volume is now controlled by the device connected to the AUX mode. If you press (+/-) on the Volume button or MUTE, your AUX device will be turning the volume up, down or off.
To unlock Volume Lock for any mode key:
1. On the remote control, press the mode key of the device for which you want to unlock the volume, and then press SETUP until the mode key flashes twice.
2. Enter 993.
3. The mode key will flash four times.
4. The volume control is now returned to its original device. If you press (+/-) on the Volume button or MUTE, the original device will be turning the volume up, down or off.
