Features

The RM-VL710 Remote Commander provides centralized control of all

your AV components from a single remote commander 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

This 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.

Remote control signals for non-Sony components are also preset

This Commander is preset for most major brands components including

Sony. You can remote control your components by setting the type and

code number of each component (page 8).

Learning function for programming various other remote control

signals

This Commander has a Learning function, to “learn” the remote control

signals needed to operate other non-preset components or functions. (To

“teach” such signals to this Commander, use the remote control supplied

with the non-preset components.) (page 14)

In addition, the Commander can “learn” remote control signals (infrared

signals only) of non-Audio Visual components such as air-conditioners,

lights, etc. (Some specific appliances or functions may not be available.)

(page 22)

Reassigning new components

You can assign Component Select buttons to freely operate other

components. This is useful when you have more than two of the same

kind of AV component (only if a Component Select buttons is free.) (page

30)

You can only assign TVs to the TV Component Select button.

When to replace the

batteries

Installing the

Batteries

Batteries for remote control

operation (two size AA (R6)

batteries)

Under normal conditions, the

batteries will last up to six

months. If the Commander does

not operate properly, the batteries

might be drained. When this

happens, replace the batteries with

new ones.

Slide open the battery

compartment lid and insert two

size AA (R6) batteries (not

supplied). Be sure to match up the

+ and – indications on the

batteries with the + and –

indications on the battery

compartment.

Note

Do not take more than one hour to

replace the batteries. Otherwise, your

setting of the code numbers (page 8)

and “learned” remote control signals

(page 14) will be erased.

Notes on batteries

• Do not use an old battery with a new

one or mix different types of batteries

together.

• If the electrolyte inside the battery

should leak, wipe the contaminated

area of the battery compartment with

a cloth and replace the old batteries

with new ones. To prevent the

electrolyte from leaking, remove the

batteries when you plan not to use

the Commander for a long period of

time.

Insert the batteries negative-and-

first through the guide clamp

within each compartment as

shown above.

Precautions

Specifications

•Do not drop the unit or give a

shock to the unit, or it may cause

a malfunction.

•Do not leave the unit in a

location near heat sources, or in

a place subject to direct sunlight,

excessive dust or sand, moisture,

rain or mechanical shock.

•Do not put foreign objects into

the unit. Should any liquid or

solid object fall into the unit,

have it checked by qualified

personnel before operating the

unit any further.

•Do not expose the remote control

detectors of your components to

direct sunlight or other strong

illumination. Too much light

there can interfere with remote

control operations.

Operating distance

Approx. 32.8 ft. (10 m) (varies

depending on components of

different manufacturers)

Power requirements

Two size AA (R6) batteries

Battery life

Approx. 6 months (varies depending

on frequency of use)

Design and specifications are subject to

change without notice.

•Be sure to place the Commander

out of the reach of small children

or pets. Components such as air

conditioners, heaters, electric

appliances, and electric shutters

or curtains receiving an infrared

signal can be dangerous if

misused.

Maintenance

Clean the surface with a soft cloth

slightly moistened with water or a

mild detergent solution. Do not

use any type of solvent such as

alcohol, benzene or thinner as they

may damage the finish of the

Troubleshooting

If you have problems setting up or using the Remote Commander, first

check the batteries (page 6), then check the items below.

Symptom

Remedy

You cannot operate the

components.

• Go closer to the component. The maximum operating

distance is approximately 32.8 ft. (10 m).

• Check that you are aiming the Commander directly at the

compoent, and that there are no obstructions between the

Commander and the component.

• Power on the components first, if necessary.

• Make sure you have pressed the correct Component Select

button. In case of CBL or DVD, make sure the desired

component is selected.

• Check that the component has infrared remote capability. For

example, if your component didn’t come with a remote

commander, it probably isn’t capable of being controlled by a

remote commander.

• You have assigned a different component on the Component

Select button. Check the component assigned to that button

and the component code.

You cannot control the

volume.

• If your visual components are connected to an audio system,

make sure you’ve set up the Commander as described in

“Controlling the Volume of Visual Components Connected to

an Audio System” (page 23).

• You have assigned another component on the TV or AMP

button (page 30). In this case, the volume cannot be controlled

when you select components other than TV or AMP.

The Component Select

buttons flash by a

you press a button.

You cannot operate the

components even after

setting the component

code numbers.

• Set the component code correctly. If the code that is listed first

for your component doesn’t work, try all the codes for your

component in the order in which they are listed in the

supplied “Component Code Numbers”.

• Some features may not be preset. If some or all of the buttons

do not function correctly even after you have set the

component codes, then use the Learning function to program

the remote control signals for the component (page 14).

• The component may be operated with a code number that is

not listed in the “Component Code Numbers”. See “Setting a

component code by the Search function” (page 11) and try

setting a code number again with the Search function.

This function is for the Sony components only.

The system Control

function or Control

Program function does

not work properly.

• When you program a System Control function or Control

Program function, make sure to follow the correct steps

(pages 26, 29).

• Change the direction the remote commander is aimed. If the

problem persists, position the programmed components

closer together.

• If the remote control receivers of the components are too far

apart, or if something is blocking the signals between them,

some of the components may not operate in sequence even

after you press the programmed button. If some of the

components do not operate correctly because of the above or

any other reason, position the components back to the way

they were before you set the System Control function or

Control Program function. Failure to do this can result in

incorrect operation when you use these functions again.

• Some components may not always be powered on by the

System Control function or Control Program function. This is

because the power of the component turns on and off

alternately when receiving the power on/off signal. In this

case, check the operating component‘s power on/off state

before using the system control function.

• If you change the AV brands‘ component code number (page

8) set on a Component Select button that has been

programmed for a series of commands by the Control

Program function, the new signal will be transmitted when

you press the corresponding Component Select button.

• The intervals between steps may be too short. Depending on

the components, you may need to insert an interval between

consecutive controls. You can insert an interval by changing

the order of pressing the buttons. (You can insert an interval

between steps when programming the Component Select

button.)

• If a SYSTEM CONTROL button or a Component Select button

has already “learned” a remote control signal (page 14), you

can program a System Control function (System Control

Macro) or a Control Program function (Component Macro),

but the function will not work until you clear the Leaned

Function. To clear the Learned function, see “Changing or

erasing the function of a “learned” button” on page 20.
