Control up to 8 components
With the Remote Commander, you can
control up to 8 components, including
your TV, VCR, DVD, DVR, CD, RCVR,
etc.
Features
The RM-AX1400 Remote Commander
provides centralized control of all your
AV components from a single remote
control and saves the trouble of operating
different AV components with different
remote control devices. The following are
its main features.
Centralized control of Sony AV
components with this one Remote
Commander
The Remote Commander is preset at the
factory to operate Sony brand
components, so you can use it out of the
box as a control center for your Sony AV
components.
The supplied software “AX1400
Remote Editor” for easy Remote
Commander setup
By installing the “AX1400 Remote
Editor” on the supplied CD-ROM onto
your PC, you can customize the setting of
the Remote Commander according to
your preferences.
You can also program various advanced
settings easily. (The main settings of the
Remote Commander can only be
programmed using “AX1400 Remote
Editor.”)
The settings programmed on your PC
can be transferred to the Remote
Commander as necessary using the
supplied Dedicated USB cable.
Remote control signals for non-Sony
components are also preset
The Remote Commander also recognizes
the preset codes for most major brands
components, as well as Sony. Just select
the corresponding codes to control all
your AV components.
Learning function lets you program
other remote control signals you may
need
The Remote Commander can learn the
remote control infrared signals of
non-preset components. The Remote
Commander can learn remote control
signals (infrared signals only) of other
devices such as air conditioners, lights,
etc. (some specific appliances or
functions may not be available).
XPRESS function for executing a
series of actions to operate several
AV components by pressing just one
button
Groups of commands from different
components can be set for up to 8
XPRESS functions. For example, when
you watch a DVD using a TV and an
amplifier/receiver, you can press just one
button to turn on/off each component, and
select the correct inputs. Other buttons
operate source components (the
components which output picture or
sound).
Also, the XPRESS function can memorize
the status of power on/off, input select
status of each component, and send a
signal to synchronize them to the Remote
Commander, regardless of their current
status.
System Control function executes a
series of actions (a macro) by
pressing one button
In addition to the XPRESS function, more
settings can be programmed to perform a
series of actions (a macro) just by
pressing one button. You can program up
to 8 System Control functions.
Furthermore, you can program a series of
actions (a macro) to other buttons as a
single step of an XPRESS function or
component operation.
Label function lets you display the
comment assigned to each button
By registering a comment (up to 12
letters) using “AX1400 Remote Editor”
for each button, you can display the
comment when you press the button.
Bright and clear organic EL display
and button illumination
Embedded organic EL
(electroluminescence) display and button
illumination allow you to operate easily
in the dark.

the component, and that there are no obstructions between the
Remote Commander and the component.
• Turn on the components first, if necessary.
• Check that the component has infrared remote capability. For
example, if your component did not come with a Remote

• Try changing the orientation of the Remote Commander. If that
does not help, try placing the components as close to each other
as possible.
• Check the status of the components and make sure that you
have set the components properly to receive commands.
• The component codes are changed or new signals have been
learned for a button that has been programmed with a series of
commands. In this case, the new signals are transmitted when
the series of commands is executed.

component status. In this case, press the SYNC-UP button to
synchronize with the status of the current component and the
Remote Commander.
• If the TV turns off by its own Sleep function, the Remote

Trouble with setting mode
Solution
Problem
• When learning, place your component’s remote control and
Remote Commander (RM-AX1400) of about 1-3 inches (3-8 cm)
apart.
The Remote Commander fails
to learn remote control signals.
• Check the remaining battery power of both remote units. If low,
replace with new ones.
• Avoid learning in places under direct sunlight or strong
fluorescent light.
• When you program signals of an interactive signal exchange
system remote control unit (supplied with some of Sony’s
receivers and amplifiers) to the Commander, the response signal
of the main unit may interfere with the learning of the
Commander. In such a case, move to a place where the signals
will not reach the main unit (e.g. another rooms, etc.).
• Perform the Learning procedure after turning off any nearby
apparatus, such as an air-conditioner or infrared headphones.
• The Remote Commander may fail to learn remote control signals
near plasma TVs. Avoid learning near plasma TVs or turn off
the plasma TV when learning.
• The Remote Commander may fail to learn remote control signals
under strong fluorescent light.
• The Remote Commander may fail to learn remote control signals
if the component generates interference. In this case, move away
from the component when programming the Remote
Commander.
If a noise is included in the learned signals, you may not operate a
component. In this case, refer to “The Remote Commander fails to
learn remote control signals” above.
I cannot operate a component
even after I programmed
remote control signals with the
“learning” function.
If you do not operate for more than 60 seconds during setting
mode, the Remote Commander automatically exits the setting
mode and turns off. Perform the next operation step within 60
seconds.
The setting mode
unintentionally quits while
setting up.
Others
Solution
Problem
When you have a multi-purpose component (such as a DVD/VCR
combo), select only one of either component type. For example, in
the case of a DVD/VCR combo, select “DVD” or ”VCR.” If you
select both components, the XPRESS function will not work
properly.
I want to use an XPRESS
function for multi-purpose
components (VCR+DVD,
TV+VCR, DVD+RCVR (receiver),
etc.).
You can set multiple XPRESS functions for one component. For
example, when you watch a DVD, you can set the sound to output
from the TV. Or, when you listen to a CD, you can set the sound to
output from the RCVR (Receiver/Amplifier).
I want to set a DVD player for
both XPRESS-DVD and
XPRESS-CD.
• Make sure to install the USB driver properly (page 10).
• If the connection goes thorough a HUB, some PCs do not recognize
it. In this case, connect it directly to the USB port of your PC.
• If “E” is shown in the display, replace the batteries with new
ones and reconnect the Remote Commander to your PC. If your
PC still cannot recognize the USB connection, restart your PC.
My PC cannot recognize the
USB connection.
