Multi Operations
Multi operations allow you to tell the receiver and your other components to do a number of things with the push of
only two buttons on the remote control. For example, you can program the unit to turn on your TV, turn on your DVD
player and start playing the loaded DVD. This allows you to freely decide which operations you want performed as
well as the order in which you want them performed. The steps below show you how to program a string of up to 5
different operations for each MULTI CONTROL button. You don’t need to program power commands for this receiver
or any other Pioneer components. They will automatically turn on when a multi operation is performed.
(Programming Pioneer video components automatically turns on Pioneer TVs.)
