NAD M33, Owner'S Manual

ENGLISH

19

Example:

  Record a Macro to the [0] key to Turn on the M33. 

1 

Select “Input 1” (Source 1), and commence playback of connected 
Source 1 device (as in BD player).

2 

On the HTRM 2, simultaneously press-and-hold [MACRO] and [0] 
(numeric zero); the Learn LED turns steady green.

3 

Press [AMP]; press [ON]; press [1] (“Input or Source 1”); press [BD]; press 
[

4

] (Play) - the Learn LED blinks as each step is added.

4 

Press [MACRO] again to exit the macro-record mode.

To clear a macro, perform the above steps without entering any functions.

NOTE

Each macro can store a maximum of 64 command steps. If you exceed 
this number, the macro will be stored automatically after the 64th 
command is added.

EXECUTING MACROS
1 

Press and release [MACRO]; its key lights for 5 seconds. While it remains 
lit, press an HTRM 2 key where a macro has been stored.

2 

The corresponding macro will run; as each step executes, its “parent” 
Device Selector’s key flashes briefly.

3 

When finished, the [MACRO] key illumination goes out. 

Pressing any other HTRM 2 key while a macro is executing will abort the 
macro. Remember that you must hold the HTRM 2 so that its infrared 
emitter can activate the target components.

NOTE

When a macro executes, a 1 second delay is automatically inserted 
between its commands. If you need more than a 1 second delay 
between particular commands—for example, to permit a component 
to power up completely—you can record “empty” steps into the macro 
by changing Device Selector “pages” without entering actual command 
functions.

KEY ILLUMINATION TIMEOUT

The HTRM 2’s key-illumination can be set to remain lit for 0-9 seconds. The 
default value is 2 seconds. 

SET THE ILLUMINATION TIMEOUT
1 

Simultaneously press and hold the HTRM 2’s [DISP] and the [0-9] key 
corresponding to the desired timeout duration.

2 

The Learn LED will flash twice to confirm the new setting. 

3 

When set to zero, the illumination will not turn on at all.

NOTES

•  Key illumination is activated when one presses any HTRM 2 key.
•  If HTRM 2 senses movement, key illumination is activated without 

having to press a key. If HTRM 2 is shaken, key illumination is also 
activated.

•  Key illumination is the biggest drain on the HTRM 2’s batteries. A short 

key illumination timeout will extend battery life appreciably; turning it 
off altogether (set it to 0 seconds) will lengthen it still further.

CONFIGURING KEY ILLUMINATION

Keys to Press (for 3 seconds)

Mode

DISP + Digit Key (0-9)

Set key illumination timeout to number of 

seconds corresponding to digit key. Zero turns off 

the key illumination entirely.

DISP + OFF

Disable light sensor. Key illumination will turn on 

with any key press.

DISP + ON

Enable light sensor.

DISP + ENTER

Set the light sensor threshold to the current 

light level.

DISP + RTN

Restore all key illumination settings to the 

defaults.

FACTORY RESET

The HTRM 2 can be reset to its factory state, deleting all learned 
commands, copied and punched-through keys, macros, and other setup 
information, reverting all keys to their pre-programmed library commands.

PERFORM A FACTORY RESET
1 

Simultaneously press-and-hold the HTRM 2’s [ON] and [RTN] keys for 10 
seconds. The Learn LED will start to flash green. 

2 

Release [ON] and [RTN] before the second flash is complete; the Learn 
LED will turn red, indicating the remote has been reset.

NOTE

Release [ON] and [RTN] before the second flash goes out; otherwise, the 
unit will not reset. Should this occur, repeat the full procedure.

DELETE MODE

The HTRM 2 can store learned, copied, and “default library” commands on 
any single key. The default library commands are the pre-programmed 
NAD codes, such as the native M33 commands on the [AMP] page.

You can delete commands by layers back “down” to the default library 
command on any key, removing learned commands, punched-through 
functions, and copied keys.

NOTE

The default library commands cannot be deleted.

ENTER DELETE MODE
1 

Simultaneously press-and-hold the desired key’s Device Selector key 
and the [RTN] key for 3 seconds, until the Learn LED turns green. 

2 

Press the function key whose command you wish to delete; the Learn 
LED flashes; the number of times indicates which type of function has 
become active - see the table below. 

3 

Press the active Device Selector key again to exit Delete Mode.

NOTE

You can delete multiple function-key commands on the same Device 
Selector “page”.  To delete more than one Device Selector page, exit 
Delete mode and then re-enter the required page.
