Setting Up the Remote

Understanding the 2-way remote system

The supplied remote operates under a 2-way remote

system. While you use the remote and the remote’s

display is on, the component responds to signals sent

from the remote by sending signals back to the remote.

During remote operations, point the remote toward the

player at all times.

To avoid unintentional operations, turn off the 2-way

remote system of this or connected player when:

• you connect via CONTROL A1/CONTROL A1

two

or more components supplied with a remote with the

mark (for example, when you connect this

player to another set of this player or certain

receiver/amplifier). In this case, you need to turn off

the 2-way remote system of the components except

the one you want to use as a main unit for the

system. When you use the remote, make sure to turn

on the main unit.

• you connect this player to a receiver/amplifier

supplied with the RM-TP501, RM-TP501E, or RM-

LJ301 remote control. In this case, you need to turn

off this player’s 2-way remote system.

To turn off this player’s 2-way remote system, see “To

turn off the 2-way remote system” on page 8.

To turn off the 2-way remote system

You may need to turn off the player’s 2-way remote

system depending on which components you connect

to this player. See “Understanding the 2-way remote

system” on page 7 to see if you need to do so.

Even though you turn off the player’s 2-way remote

system, you can use the remote supplied with the

player by pointing the remote toward the unit such as

a receiver that the 2-way remote system is turned on.

In this case, position the player in the proximity of the

unit that the 2-way remote system is turned on.

1 Press MENU/NO.

2 Turning the JOG dial until “2WAY OFF ?” appears

in the display window.

3 Press YES.

To return to normal setting

After following steps 1 and 2, and “2WAY ON ?” is

displayed, then press YES.

If you connect to the Sony CD player CDP-CX260 or

CDP-CX88ES, press OPERATE on the transmitter/

receiver to turn it off, and set the 2-way remote system

of the player to on.

Note

If you use this player with a receiver/amplifier, turn the

receiver/amplifier on when using this player.
