This chapter describes how to prepare the
remote commander for operation. Be sure to
read this section before operating.
Compatible components
and functions
This unit is a remote control system that
utilizes infrared rays to control amplifiers/
receivers and AV components.
Compatible Components
This unit can be used to operate Sony AV
components as well as AV components made
by other manufacturers. Setup is necessary in
order to operate components made by other
manufacturers (page 10).
Note
Depending on the component, control may not be
possible using this unit.
Functions
This commander operates under the 1 way and
the 2 way remote system. As a 2 way remote
commander, you can operate the Sony
components compatible with the 2 way remote
system. Under the 2 way remote system, not
only does it transmit infrared rays for operation
of the amplifier/receiver, it also receives
infrared rays emitted by the amplifier/receiver
to display characters and other information
from components connected to the amplifier/
receiver with a CONTROL A1/A1  cord. This
commander can also exchange data directly
with 2 way CD players (page 19).
In addition, this commander is equipped with 2
remote code transmitter/receiver sections in
order to provide a greater operating range.
