Chapter I
Introducing the Smart Remote Control
Congratulations on the purchase of your SRC-2000 Smart Remote
Control. The Smart Remote Control is a digital universal remote con-
trol that is easy to use and configure, enabling you to control all your
IR equipped electronic devices.
One feature of the Smart Remote Control is the touch screen control
panel, which reduces the number of buttons on the device, making it
easy for you to find the function you want. You can conffol up to l0
devices, including a VCR, DVD, amplifier, TV, and LDIVCD.
The Smart Remote Control is easy to set up. With the "Learning eye"
you can easily conhgure each device in your household or office. You
can also easily edit the device list, make changes to the LCD appear-
ance, and adjust other settings. In addition, with the Macro function,
you can initiate a chain of up to 25 commands with the touch of a
button.
Most universal remote controls have a set list of devices and static
functions that don't provide you with a lot of flexibility. The Smart
Remote Control enables you to add and delete devices, relabel device
buttons, and change the size and shape of LCD panel buttons. With
this convenient and easy to use Smart Remote Control, you can control
all your devices with one remote control solution. No longer will you
have to search for several different remotes!
