Features

The RM-VL600 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 as well as

Sony. You can remote control your non-Sony components by setting the

type and code number of each component (page 10).

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 16)

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 24)

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 button is free.) (page

33)

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

You can only assign an amplifier or DVD/Receiver combo to the AMP

Component Select button.

Startup Guide

This guide shows you how to set the Remote Commander to operate

your components.

Getting Started

Installing the

Batteries

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.

When to replace 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.

Note

Do not take more than one hour to

replace the batteries. Otherwise, your

code number settings (page 10) and

“learned” remote control signals (page

16) 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 electrolyte

from leaking, remove the batteries if

you plan not to use the Commander

for a long period of time.

Insert the batteries (negative end

first) through the guide clamp

within each compartment as

shown above.
