Parts Description 4  
This remote operates under a 2 way remote system. With  
the two way remote system, the component responds to  
signals sent from the remote by sending additional signals  
(information about the status of the component, text data,  
etc.) back to the remote. Thus, operations are performed  
as a result of communication between the remote and the  
component.

If you would like to turn off the receiver’s 2 way remote
