See the chart on page 6 for the functions of each button with 
various device types.

1. Source/Device Area

– These buttons serve two functions: 

to select the device that the remote will control and to change
inputs on the Digital Solution preamp/processor. For example if
you want to play the DVD player, push the “DVD” button on the
top row. The Digital Solution preamp/processor will switch to the
DVD input (if it is on) and the buttons on the DR-3 remote will be
set to operate the DP-1 CD/DVD player. 

The top buttons bordered by the gold box are multi-function 
buttons. That is, they can select more than one input. Press the
DVD/6CH button once and it selects the DVD input on the pre-
amp/processor and allows the DR-3 to act as the remote for the
DP-1 CD/DVD player. Press it a second time and the DS preamp
switches to the 6CH Analog input for a DVD-Audio or multi-chan-
nel SACD player. What these buttons can’t do is select more than
one set of remote codes. You can program ONE device per Source
button. Don’t worry, it isn’t very likely that you are going to have
both a digital and an analog cable tuner or two DVD players
hooked up to your system. Of course, before the DR-3 can operate
any device other than the DS preamp/processor and DP-1 CD/DVD
player, you have to insert the device’s remote codes into the DR-3.
(See page 7 for instructions on how to program and use this
remote for other devices.)

IMPORTANT NOTE: The VOL 

, SURROUND MODE,

MUTE, SUB+ and SUB– buttons are permanently assigned to 
Digital Solution preamp/processor functions. No matter what
other device you have selected on the DR-3 remote, you can
always adjust the DS system volume, subwoofer level, mute 
and surround mode functions. 

2. LIGHT – 

Back lights the remote buttons for 8 seconds so you can

operate the remote in the dark. The function of this button does
not change when you enter program codes for other devices.

3. MUTE –

Mutes the sound of the Digital Solution preamp/proces-

sor system. To disengage the mute function and go back to normal
playback volume, press the MUTE button again or press either of
the VOLUME buttons. The function of this button does not change
when you enter program codes for other devices.

4. SURROUND MODE –

This button toggles between the various

audio modes of the Digital Solution system such as stereo, Dolby
Pro-Logic, 5 Channel Surround, etc. The function of this button
does not change when you enter program codes for other devices.

5. VOL –

These buttons control the volume of the Digital

Solution preamp/processor. The functions of these buttons do not
change when you enter program codes for other devices.

6. CHNL – 

With the Digital Solution system these buttons

step through the preset radio stations just like the Radio Preset
+/- rocker buttons on the DR-2 remote (included with the DS 
System). With other TV devices (TV, cable boxes, VCR, etc.) 
these buttons act as channel up and down buttons.

7. GUIDE

With DVD and CD players this button acts as a

chapter skip button to skip back to previous DVD chapters or 
CD tracks. With a TV it acts as the “Display” button to call up 
the channel, time and other on-screen display data. With DSS,
cable boxes and TIVO-type devices it calls up the programming
guide screen.
