20/01/2012 1:46a All of the function keys on the [AMP] ENGLISH DEVICE SELECTOR “page” are preprogrammed to control NAD amplifiers, preamplifiers and receivers. The HTR 8 can also command many other NAD components from its [DVD], [CD], [BD] and [TUNER] pages. It is important to note that certain FRANÇAIS HTR 8 keys perform different functions depending on the selected DEVICE SELECTOR “page”. The colour of the DEVICE SELECTOR key-labelling corresponds to the labelling of the function keys. Most centrally, the black [AMP] DEVICE SELECTOR “page” corresponds to the black keys: When the HTR 8’s [AMP] ESPAÑOL DEVICE SELECTOR page is active; these keys select the amplifier or receiver inputs. Similarly, the purple [DVD] DEVICE SELECTOR “page” corresponds to several purple labels and so on. Learning Codes from other Remotes ITALIANO Begin by positioning the HTR 8 “nose-tonose” with the source remote so the two devices’ infrared windows are about 2 inches apart.

Enter Learning Mode: On the HTR 8, simultaneously press-and-hold for 3 seconds both a DEVICE SELECTOR key and the [RES] key until the Learn DEUTSCH LED of the HTR 8 turns steady green.

Press the HTR 8’s function key you wish to teach a command; the Learn LED will turn amber.

Press-and-hold the function key on the source remote: The HTR 8’s Learn LED will flicker amber for a second or two, then turn solid green. The NEDERLANDS command is learned.

Press the HTR 8’s DEVICE SELECTOR key again to exit the learning mode. If the Learn LED does not flicker amber you may need to vary the distance between the remotes. If the Learn LED turns red rather than green, that particular command of that source remote SVENSKA command could not be learned. In rare instances, there maybe some IR format that is not compatible with the HTR 8.

Press [DVD] again to exit the learning mode. Copy a Command from another key You may copy a command from any HTR 8 key to any other. To copy a key function, after entering the Learning ESPAÑOL Mode, and pressing the desired key to be copied to, simply press the device key from which you wish to copy, having first pressed its DEVICE SELECTOR key if it resides on another “page.” The status LED will turn green; press the DEVICE SELECTOR key again to exit Learning Mode. ITALIANO Example: Copy the Pause command from the CD page to the AMP [j] button

On the HTR 8, simultaneously pressand-hold [AMP] and [RES]; the Learn LED turns steady green.

Press [AMP] again to exit the learning mode. Note The copy and punch-through functions are similar. However, if you copy NEDERLANDS a command and then subsequently delete or overwrite the original (source-key) command, the copied-to key’s command remains unchanged. If you punch-through to a command and then delete or overwrite the original key, the punched-through functions also change accordingly. SVENSKA Macro Commands A “macro” command is a series of two or more remote codes issued automatically from a single keypress. You might use a macro to automate a simple command sequence, such as, “Turn on the DVD player and then press PLAY”. Or you might compose an elaborate macro to power

up an entire system, select a source, choose a Listening Mode, and begin playback again, all from a single keypress. The HTR 8 can store one macro on each of its DEVICE SELECTOR and function keys.

R8_eng_OM_v03.indd 6 20/01/2012 1:46a Macros are independent of the currently selected device. Recording Macros ENGLISH Note To record a macro, simultaneously press-and-hold for 3 seconds both the [MACRO] key and the HTR 8 function key until the status LED turns green. The macro button will also light up. Press the sequence of function keys to be FRANÇAIS to which you wish to assign the macro, recorded into the macro, being sure to first press the requisite DEVICE SELECTOR key for each function (you may switch many times as necessary), allowing you to create macro containing commands from more than one DEVICE SELECTOR “page.” ESPAÑOL devices while recording the macro as When you have finished entering the desired command sequence, press [MACRO] again to store the macro; the will turn off. Note Each macro can store a maximum of 64 command steps. If you exceed this ITALIANO Learn LED and [MACRO] key illumination number, the macro will be stored automatically after the 64th command Example: Record a Macro to the [0] key to turn ON the NAD Receiver, turn ON the DVD Player, Select Input 1 (Source 1) and commence disc playback of connected DEUTSCH is added.

20/01/2012 1:46a Executing Macros ENGLISH To execute a macro, press and release [MACRO]; its key illumination lights for 5 seconds. While it remains lit, press an HTR 8 key to which a macro has previously been stored. The corresponding macro will run; as each step executes, its “parent” DEVICE FRANÇAIS SELECTOR key flashes briefly; when execution is finished, the [MACRO] key illumination goes out. Pressing any other HTR 8 key while a macro is executing will abort the macro. Remember that you must hold the HTR 8 so that its infrared emitter can activate the target components. ESPAÑOL Note When a macro executes, a 1 second delay is automatically inserted between its commands. If you need more than a 1 second delay between particular commands—for example, to permit a component to power up ITALIANO completely—you can record “empty” steps into the macro by changing DEVICE SELECTOR “pages” without entering actual command functions. KEY Illumination Timeout The HTR 8’s key-illumination can be set to remain lit for 0-9 seconds. The default DEUTSCH value is 2 seconds. To set the illumination timeout, simultaneously press-and-hold for 3 seconds both the HTR 8’s [DISP] and the [0-9] key, with the digit corresponding to the desired timeout duration; the Learn LED will flash twice to confirm the new setting. When set to zero, the illumination will not turn on at all. NEDERLANDS Notes

Key illumination is activated when one presses any HTR 8 key.

If HTR 8 senses movement, key illumination is activated without having to press a key. If HTR 8 is shaken, key illumination is also activated.

Key illumination is the biggest drain SVENSKA on the HTR 8’s batteries. A short key illumination timeout will extend battery life appreciably; turning it off altogether (set it to 0 seconds) will lengthen it still further.

Learned Command ITALIANO Loading Code-Libraries The HTR 8 can store a different library of default NAD codes for each of its DEVICE SELECTOR “pages”. If the original default library does not control your NAD CD player, BD player, DVD player or other DEUTSCH component, follow the procedure below to change the code-library. Begin by ensuring that the component you wish the HTR 8 to control is plugged in and powered-up (“ON”, not merely in standby). To enter the HTR 8’s Library Mode, simultaneously press-and-hold NEDERLANDS for 3 seconds both the desired DEVICE SELECTOR key and the [A/V PSET] key, until the Learn LED turns green. While keeping the HTR 8 pointed toward the component, enter the first appropriate three-digit code-library number from the table below and then press [OFF]. If the component turns off, press [ENTER] to SVENSKA accept that code-library number and exit the Library Mode. If the component does not turn off, enter the next three-digit code-library number from the table. When you enter the correct number the component will turn off; press [ENTER] to accept that code library number and exit

20/01/2012 1:46a Search Mode ENGLISH If none of the codes from the table, when entered, turns on the component, and if you are quite sure you have followed the above procedure completely and carefully, you may want to try the “search” method as follows: Enter Library Mode by simultaneously FRANÇAIS pressing-and-holding for 3 seconds both the desired DEVICE SELECTOR key and the [A/V PSET] key, until the Learn LED turns green. Now press-and-hold the HTR 8’s [D] or [F] key; the remote will step through all the available codes at a rate of approximately 1 per second. ESPAÑOL When the component turns off, immediately release the cursor key; press [ENTER] to accept that code-library and exit the Library Mode. Try a few commands; should you prove to have stepped past the needed code-library, re-enter the Library Mode and use the cursor key to step back to it. ITALIANO Note It is possible that search mode will find code-libraries that operate, at least partially, some other brand (non-NAD) components. You may certainly exploit such capabilities as you find them. However, since we DEUTSCH can only ensure the completeness or accuracy of NAD code-libraries, we cannot support the HTR 8’s operation with other-brand components. Checking Code-Library Number You can check the current code-library NEDERLANDS on any DEVICE SELECTOR key as follows. Enter Library Mode by simultaneously pressing-and-holding for 3 seconds both the desired component’s DEVICE SELECTOR key and the [A/V PSET] key, until the Learn LED turns green. Press the [DISP] key; the HTR 8 indicates the current code-library by flashing its [CUSTOM], [BD], and [MACRO] keys. SVENSKA For example, to indicate code-library #501, the HTR 8 will flash [CUSTOM] 5 times, pause, and then flash [MACRO] once. You might wish to make a note of your components’ code-library numbers.
