to move the blinking cursor block
to the next position. Then press the
Numeric

twice. The first press will move the
cursor to the right, and the second press will
move the cursor one more space to the right,
leaving a blank space between the last letter
and the next one.
8. Repeat Step 7 as needed to enter all the needed
letters, numbers, characters and spaces.
9. When the text entry is complete, press the
Set Button
F
. The LCD display will blink
DEVICE RENAMED three times and then
return to normal operation.
Once a device is renamed you will see the new name
on the top line of the remote’s LCD display whenever
the
Input//Device Selector
3
is pressed, or when
any other command/function button on the remote is
pressed after the main Device Selector is pressed.
Note that renaming a device in the remote will
not
change the name of the input used by the on-screen
menu system of the DPR.

• Renaming a device changes the name of the device
only, not any of the individual key functions within
that device memory. To change the name of an
individual device, follow the instructions in the next
section.
Renaming Individual Keys
Thanks to the programming flexibility of the DPR
remote, an individual button on the remote may be
assigned a feature or function that is different from the
name that appears as the factory default when the
button is pressed. However, with the Rename Key
function it is possible to rename almost any button on
the remote so that when the button is pressed you will
see a more descriptive or appropriate name displayed.
To rename a specific button on the remote, follow
these steps. For this example, we will show you how to
rename the
Tone Control Button
V
, which is nor-
mally not used when DVD is selected so that it reads
ZOOM in the remote’s display.
1. Press and hold the
Program Button
O
for
about three seconds while the message shown
in Figure 15 appears in the remote’s
LCD
Information Display
2
. Release the button
when the red light under the
Set Button
F
appears.
2.
The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure 16),
will appear in the LCD display and the Set Button
F
will remain illuminated in red. Press the
⁄
/
¤
Navigation Buttons n until RENAME
appears on the bottom line of the LCD screen, as
shown in Figure 66.
3. At the next menu screen press the
⁄
/
¤
Navigation Buttons n until RENAME KEY
appears on the bottom line of the LCD screen, as
shown in Figure 69. Press the
Set Button
F
to continue.
Figure 69
4. The next display screen (Figure 70) is where you
select the device within which the key to be
renamed exists. Press the
⁄
/
¤
Navigation
Buttons
n until the name of the base device
appears. In our example, since we want to rename
a button within the DVD device memory,
DVD
should appear in the lower line of the LCD. When
the desired device name appears, press the
Set
Button
F
.
Figure 70
5. At the next menu screen you will select the first
button within the device to be renamed, as
instructed in the display shown in Figure 71.
Select the button by simply pressing it on the
remote.
Figure 71
6. Depending on whether or not the button pressed
already has a named function within the device
selected, one of two things will happen.
a. If the button to be renamed already has a pre-
programmed, or previously renamed title in the
remote’s memory, you will see that name on
the top line of the LCD display, and a blinking
block cursor will appear on the far left side
of the bottom line of the display, as shown in
Figure 72.
b. If the button to be renamed does not have a
function in the device selected, the top line of
the LCD screen will be blank, and a blinking
block cursor will appear on the far left side
of the bottom line of the display, as shown in
Figure 73.

7. To enter the new name for the key, press the
Numeric Keys
A
. The letters above the
numbered buttons indicate which letters or sym-
bols will appear when the button is pressed during
the renaming process. The first press of the but-
ton will enter the first character shown, subse-
quent presses of the same button will change the
display to the other letters above that numbered
key. For example, since the first letter we need to
rename the Tone button to Zoom is a “Z,” so you
would locate the “Z” above the “9” button, and
press the button four times. The first press shows
a “W,” the subsequent presses step through the
other letters available until the “Z” appears.
Consult the table on this page to see which
characters are available by pressing a particular
button.
8. After you enter the first letter of the new device
name, there are three options for entering the
next character:
a.
To enter a letter that requires a different numeric
key to be pressed, simply press that button.
The cursor will automatically move to the next
position and the first letter accessed by the new
button will appear. Following our example, the
next letter needed is an “O,” so you would press
the “6” button once.
b. To enter a letter that uses the same numeric
key, you must first press the
