10 REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS
Remote Control Functions
IMPORTANT NOTE: The AVR 2000’s remote
may be programmed to control up to seven
devices, including the AVR 2000. Before using
the remote, it is important to remember to press
the Input Selector button
4 that corre-
sponds to the unit you wish to operate. In addi-
tion, the AVR 2000’s remote is shipped from the
factory to operate the AVR 2000 and most
Harman Kardon CD or DVD players and cassette
decks. The remote is also capable of operating a
wide variety of other products using the control
codes that are part of the remote. Before using
the remote with other products, follow the
instructions on pages 32 to program the proper
codes for the products in your system.
It is also important to remember that many of the
buttons on the remote take on different func-
tions, depending on the product selected using

used in the setup procedures for delay time,
speaker configuration and channel output level
adjustment.
F Digital Select: Press this button to assign
one of the digital inputs
#$ to a
source. (See page 26 for more information on
using digital inputs.)
G Numeric Keys:These buttons serve as a
ten-button numeric keypad to enter tuner preset
positions. They are also used to select channel
numbers when TV,VCR or Sat receiver has
been selected on the remote, or to select track
numbers on a CD, DVD or LD player, depending
on how the remote has been programmed.
H Tuner Mode: Press this button when the
tuner is in use to select between automatic tun-
ing and manual tuning. When the button is
