RECEIVER: STR-DE597 - How To Use A Universal Remote

On the Receiver: (STR-DE597- the command mode must be changed on the receiver to AV1. The receiver and the remote are factory set to AV2.

If Receiver Is Changed to AV1, your universal remote presets Should Work Fine.
If the receiver is left at AV2 (default), you will have to use the original STR-DE597
remote and learn everything from the STR-DE597 remote to another learning remote).

Here's How To Change The Receiver To AV1. And Then Use A Preset Code From A Universal Remote.

1. On The Receiver Press I/O to turn the power Off
2. Then, on the receiver hold down ENTER and press I/O this will switch Receiver to Av1,
you can now use yor universal remote
(my One For All URC6012 Would Not Work Until The Receiver Was Chaged To AV1.)

My One-For-All URC6012 Now Works Fine With The Provided Code (1058).

Thanks For The Help, This Was Driving Me Nuts...
