TABLE OF CONTENTS

Understanding the 2 way remote system

This remote operates under a 2 way remote system. With the two way remote system, the component responds to signals sent from the remote by sending additional signals (information about the status of the component, text data, etc.) back to the remote. Thus, operations are performed as a result of communication between the remote and the component.

graph LR
    A["Remote"] <--> B["Component"]

When using a home entertainment system comprised of several components compatible with the 2 way remote system, please restrict 2 way remote system operation to a single component. Normally, turn off the 2 way remote system on all components except the receiver. If you would like to turn off the receiver's 2 way remote system, see "Setting up the 2 way remote" in the operating instructions supplied with the receiver.

Note on downloading CD memos from the CD players

You can download CD memos only from the CONTROL A1/A1II-compatible Sony CD players. Depending on the CD player setting, it may take several minutes to download CD memos. For faster transmission, make the following CD player settings.

When an CONTROL A1/A1II-compatible Sony CD player is connected to the receiver

Check the following:

• The category for the CD function in the IR SET list is set to "CD1."
• The category for all other functions in the IR SET list is not set to "CD2."

You can check the current category setting by selecting a component from the function list (see page 14). Category indication appears on the second column in the display window.

When multiple CONTROL A1/A1II-compatible Sony CD players are connected to the receiver

When you use two CD players, set the COMMAND MODE selector on the back panel of the CD players to "CD1" or "CD2," respectively, and set the category in the IR SET list to match the corresponding player's COMMAND MODE selector position (see page 16). When you use three CD players, set the COMMAND MODE selector to "CD1," "CD2," or "CD3," respectively, and set the category in the IR SET list to match the corresponding player's COMMAND MODE selector position.

When setting category for the CD players, do not skip the number or select the same number to the multiple players.

When an CONTROL A1/A1II-compatible Sony CD player and a non-compatible Sony CD player are connected to the receiver

Set the COMMAND MODE selector on the back panel of the CONTROL A1/A1 II-compatible CD player to "CD2" and set the category in the IR SET list for the player to "CD2" (see page 16).

Set the COMMAND MODE selector on the back panel of the non-compatible CD player to "CD1" and set the category in the IR SET list for the player to "CD1" (see page 16).

Before downloading CD memos from the CONTROL A1/A1 II-compatible CD player, temporarily change the category setting of the non-compatible CD player to some other category ("VideoCD," for example). After downloading is completed, set the category setting of the non-compatible CD player to "CD1" again.

When using a non-Sony CD player in conjunction with Sony CD players

Program the remote to control the non-Sony CD player (see page 16).

See the sections above for settings of the Sony CD players.
