Setting an Event Timer
The Event Timer lets you program your remote to turn a component (TV, VCR, AUDIO, etc.) on or off
at the preprogrammed time using a macro. For example, you can program your remote to control
audio equipment to turn music on, program your TV as a Sleep Timer to turn off at a certain time,
or program your VCR to turn on and record. Up to 6 timer events can be set. After setting up your
Event Timer, be sure to leave the remote pointed at the component(s) you have programmed it to
control. They will have to be in the remote’s line-of-sight in order for this feature to work.
