Harman-kardon HS 500 User Manual download pdf (Page 12)

The HS 500 remote is capable of controlling four devices, including the

HS 500 with its internal disc player and tuner, as well as a TV and

devices connected to the Auxiliary and Digital Audio Inputs. Each time

you wish to use the codes for any component, press the Selector button

for that component to change the button functions to the correct codes.

Each Source Selector is used to power on the HS 500, select the

source indicated, and switch the remote’s mode to operate the source

and the HS 500 system, i.e., volume, mute, source selection and

on-screen displays. The Source Selectors that operate the HS 500’s

internal sources, including the DVD player, the tuner and the USB ports,

are not programmable. As explained in the Initial Setup section, you may

program the TV, Auxiliary and Digital Input Source Selectors to operate

any external components you connect to the HS 500.

TV: Selects the source connected to the analog or digital audio input

assigned to the TV and switches the remote to operate a television set.

Disc: Selects the HS 500’s internal disc player as the source and

switches the remote to Disc mode.

Radio: Selects the HS 500’s internal tuner as the source and switches

the remote to Tuner mode. Additional presses toggle the tuner band

between AM and FM.

AUX: Selects the source connected to the Auxiliary analog audio inputs

and switches the remote to operate the device.

D-IN: Selects the source connected to the digital audio input assigned

to the D-IN source and switches the remote to operate the device.

USB 1: Selects the device connected to the front-panel USB port

(on right side of unit) as the source and switches the remote to operate

the device using the HS 500’s on-screen menu system.

USB 2: Selects the device connected to the rear-panel USB port as

the source and switches the remote to operate the device using the

HS 500’s on-screen menu system.

NOTE: When the remote is switched to USB mode, it does not

directly operate the USB device. The device is navigated and

controlled indirectly using the HS 500’s on-screen menu

system.

The Mode button allows you to change the remote’s mode to control a

different device without selecting that device as a source. This is useful

if, for example, you wish to adjust your video display screen (TV mode)

while watching a DVD (Disc Mode).

Any given button may have different functions, depending on the

remote’s mode. Some buttons are labeled with these functions. For

example, the Preset Buttons are labeled for use as Picture Up/Down

Buttons when viewing JPEGs on a CD or USB device. See Table A8

in the appendix for listings of the different functions for each type of

component.

IR Transmitter Lens: As buttons are pressed on the remote,

infrared codes are emitted through this lens. Make sure it is pointing

toward the component being operated. In Learning mode, the remote

receives codes transmitted by your source component’s original remote

through this lens. The remote is then capable of storing the new code

in the memory for a button you select. See the Installation section for

more information.

Program Indicator: This LED lights up or flashes in one of three colors

as the remote is programmed or operated.

System Power Off Button: Press this button to turn off the

HS 500 or another device.

Screen Power On and Off: Press these buttons to turn your video

display on or off.

Source Selectors: Press one of these buttons to select a source

device, which is a section of the HS 500 (DVD player or tuner) or an

external component where a playback signal originates, e.g., cable TV,

satellite or HDTV tuner. This will also turn on the HS 500 and switch

the remote to the codes that operate the source device.

TV/Video: This button has no effect on the receiver, but is used to

switch video inputs on the TV.

SAP: This button toggles the SAP (Secondary Audio Program) feature

on and off. Some television programs are broadcast with a second

audio track, such as a translation into another language, and this button

allows you to access that audio.

Mode: This button has no effect on the HS 500, but enables you to

switch the remote to another mode so that it operates another device

without selecting it as the source. Each press of the Mode button

changes the remote’s mode in this order: TV, DISC, RADIO, AUX, D-IN,

USB 1 and USB 2, and then back to TV again. The corresponding

Source Selector will light to indicate the mode.

Presets/Picture Up/Down: When the tuner is the source, these

buttons scroll through the preset stations. When the DVD player or USB

is the source these buttons scroll through still images stored on a disc

or USB device.

Disc Info: Press this button to display the Disc Information screen,

which contains detailed information about the current disc.

Mute Button: Press this button to mute the HS 500’s speaker and

headphones outputs temporarily. To end muting, press this button

or adjust the volume. Muting also ends when the system is turned off.

Volume Controls: Press these buttons to raise or lower the volume,

which will be shown in decibels (dB) in the Message Display.

Subtitle: Press this button while a DVD containing subtitle information

is playing to turn subtitles off or select a subtitle language. This setting

will only be in effect for the current disc.

NOTE: When you wish to make a recording, if you have

programmed the recorder’s control codes into the remote, you

will need to simultaneously press both the Subtitle button and

the Record button to transmit the Record control code.
