[. . . ] In addition, the display shows a customizable label when a button is pressed. This large group of buttons duplicates the functions on the remotes for your audio/video components. Each button can store commands for ten different components, selected by pressing a DEVICE key. At the top right of this group are basic command buttons such as Power, Volume, Channel Selection, Muting, and Band. [. . . ] In addition to normal functions, the POWER Button and the five buttons labeled SHIFT, PTY TA, TP DISPLAY provide , , a special option ­ learning up to three commands on a single button. The first command is sent when the button is pressed once, the second command is sent the next time the button is pressed, and the third command is sent the third time the button is pressed. This feature can be used, for example, to handle a component that has separate buttons for power on and power off. 10 RMT-90 Special Buttons Five rectangular buttons behind the sliding cover are used for programming the RMT-90 and for special features such as the MACRO function, the TIME/ALM functions, and the KEY TONE feature. Configuration Buttons Four recessed buttons behind the sliding cover are used in configuring the unit. Twenty of the buttons on the RMT-90 (the 10 device buttons plus the number buttons 0 - 9) can store multiple command macro sequences ­ for example, a sequence that turns on the TV set, selects channel 5, turns on the surround processor, and selects the TV input. A macro sequence is sent by pressing the MACRO button followed by the button where the macro is stored. Multi-Step Button Operation The POWER Button and the five buttons labelled SHIFT, PTY, TA, TP DISPLAY provide a special option ­ the ability , to program up to three different commands. The first command is sent when the button is pressed once, the second command is sent the next time the button is pressed, and the third command is sent the third time the button is pressed.

LOW BATTERY Indicator The indicator appears in the display when the batteries are weak and need to be replaced: · When the indicator blinks, battery power is extremely low and the unit will lock all functions until fresh batteries are installed. Rotel codes are pre-programmed for the VOLUME UP/DOWN buttons for all ten DEVICE command banks. To use the other DEVICE button command sets, you must teach the RMT-90 the IR commands from each of your remotes using the LEARNING mode. Additional programming options such as special macro programming, clearing memorized commands, cloning commands from one RMT-90 to another, and resetting the RMT-90 are described later in this section. Learning Mode To teach the RMT-90 the commands from one of your other remotes, place the two remote controls end to end as shown in the illustration at the front of this manual. The IR signals sent by the other remote must be aimed at the IR emitter/sensor of the RMT-90. Press and hold the corresponding button on the original remote until the display shows "OK!The LEARN indictor resumes blinking once the command has been learned. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 for each COMMAND button you wish to program in that DEVICE bank ­ for example, for each transport and track selection function on your CD player. If the LCD shows an ERROR message, the command was not successfully learned. [. . . ] When the entire macro sequence has been entered, press the LEARN button to complete the process. Clone Function The CLONE function transfers all programming, including learned commands and custom labels, from one RMT-90 to a second RMT-90. To transfer the programming, place two RMT-90 remotes with their IR windows facing each other, then proceed as follows. If necessary, press the ­ key until the "REC" is flashing, and press the ENT button to confirm. [. . . ]
