➤ Controlling external devices with the remote control

En

You can use the unit’s remote control to operate playback devices if 
you have registered their remote control codes. You can also use 
the input selection keys to change the playback devices that are 
controlled by the remote control, because their remote control 
codes are assigned to the input selection keys. 

• (RX-V475 only)

If you assign the remote control code for an external device to the star (

★ or ★★) 

key, you can operate the device with the remote control without switching the input 
source after pressing the star key.

• If there are multiple remote control codes, register the first code in the list. If 

that does not work, try the other codes.

SOURCE/RECEIVER blinks twice.

Perform each of the following steps within 1 minute. 
Otherwise, the setting will be canceled. If this happens, 
repeat from Step 2.

For example, press HDMI 1 to set the remote control code 
for the playback device connected to the HDMI 1 jack.

Once the remote control code is registered successfully, 
SOURCE/RECEIVER blinks twice.

If it blinks six times, registration has failed. Repeat from Step 2.

• For details on how to register a remote control code to a SCENE key, refer to 

“Configuring scene assignments” (p.36).

■

Once you have registered the remote control code for your 
playback device, you can control it using the following keys after 
selecting the input source or scene.

• By pressing SOURCE/RECEIVER, you can switch the devices (the unit or 

external device) that are operated by the menu operation keys, DISPLAY and 
numeric keys. You can operate the unit when SOURCE/RECEIVER lights up in 
orange, and an external device when SOURCE/RECEIVER lights up in green.
For example, if you register the remote control code of your BD/DVD player on 
HDMI 1, you can operate the unit when SOURCE/RECEIVER lights up in orange, 
and the BD/DVD player when SOURCE/RECEIVER lights up in green.

• These keys work only if the corresponding function is available on your playback 

device and if the device can be operated with an infrared remote control.
