Option 3 — Select the input from an on-screen 
menu
In this case, your device uses an on-screen menu 
from which you can select the input you want.
When you press the source button, the menu 
appears on your TV screen. Then, you use another 
button on the remote to choose the input you 
want, and then a third button to select the input.
For example, you press the source button to 
display the on-screen menu, the arrow keys to 
select an input, and then the OK button enter 
your selection.
Option 4 — Select the source from a list
In this case, your device has a list of inputs and 
you can use the buttons on the remote to select 
the input you want from the list. 
After you press the source button, you have to 
press another button on the remote that selects 
the input you want.
In this option, there’s no menu from which to 
choose (Option 3) and you don’t have to cycle 
through all inputs to get to the one you want 
(Option 1).
Step 1— Turn on all your devices
To determine which devices are using which inputs, Logitech recommends you start by 
turning on all the devices in your entertainment system.
If possible, you should even start something playing in your DVD player, CD player, VCR, 
etc.
By having all your devices on, it’s easier to see how they’re connected.
It’s also handy to have some paper and a pen so you can note which de\
vices are 
connected to which inputs.

Step  — Watch the TV
In this step, you must use your TV’s original remote control to switch between inputs.
Using your TV’s original remote, select each input one-at-a-time.
For each input, note which device appears to be connected to that input. 
 For example, if you switch to VIDEO 1 and see your DVD playing, you know    
 your DVD player is connected to VIDEO 1.
Repeat step  for each input.

Step 3 — Listen to the sound
You need to complete this step only if you have a separate device (calle\
d an AV 
Receiver) that manages the sound for your entertainment system. For example, you 
have a home theater system or connect your TV to your stereo so the sound comes out 
of your stereo speakers.
You must use your AV Receiver’s original remote control to switch between inputs.
Using your AV Receiver’s original remote, select each input one-at-a-time.
For each input, note which device appears to be connected to that input. 
 For example, if you switch to OPTICAL 1 and hear the sound from your DVD       
    playing, you know your DVD player is connected to OPTICAL 1.
Repeat step  for each input.

If you cannot find the model 
number on the component itself, 
the user manual that came with 
your component should list the 
manufacturer and model number.
Device TypeManufacturerModel Number
example: DVD Playerexample: Pioneerexample: DV-414
List the entertainment components below that you would like your new rem\
ote to control.
Once you have gathered all of your information, take this worksheet to y\
our computer and 
continue with the Setup software.
In the Add Devices step of the setup software, you will need to enter information about th\
e 
components in your entertainment system. Fill out this worksheet to use \
as your guide.

A stereo component that outputs to speakers, and increases the 
gain or level of an audio signal. An amplifier doesn’t typically 
include a radio.
Also referred to as Enhanced for Widescreen, or Enhanced for 
16:9. The process that horizontally shrinks a 16:9 image into a 
4:3 space to convert images between widescreen and typical 
television image aspect ratio. Used on many DVDs.
The ratio of image width to image height. Common motion-
picture ratios are 1.85:1 and .35:1. Television screens are 
usually 1.33:1 (also known as 4:3). HDTV is 1.78:1, or 16:9.
A device with several audio and video source inputs that sends a 
selected audio/video source input signal to an output device like 
speakers or a TV.
Projector screen technology that relies on using individually 
controlled tiny mirrors (micro mirrors) to produce an image. 
Developed originally by Texas Instruments.
A standalone unit that resembles and functions very much like a 
VCR. Like a VCR, DVD recorders all have AV source inputs, as well 
it can record TV shows.
The high-resolution form of television. HDTV has 115 lines of 
resolution, or more than five times the video information than 
that of a TV set, creating a much crisper, more detailed picture.
A device that is connected to a set of lights and allows the lights 
to be powered or dimmed remotely.
A single unit that is some combination of the functionality of a 
DVD, VCR, radio, and amplifier.
The standard video broadcast format used in North America.

Stereo receiver
A device that routes video or audio from one device to another 
device.
Contains an internal recorder and player that records and plays 
video without the use of a removable tape or disc. Typically PVRs 
can pause, rewind, instantly replay, and play slow-motion for 
live or recorded TV. Examples of PVR service providers are TiVo, 
ReplayTV, UltimateTV, and Keen PM. Many satellite providers also 
provide PVR services and have PVRs included in some of their 
satellite receivers.
A control and switching component that may include 
equalization functions.
Takes a small signal and amplifies it sufficiently to be fed into 
the power amplifier for further amplification. A pre-amp includes 
all of the controls for regulating tone, volume, and channel 
balance. This task is known as sound processing.
Also referred to as a tuner or a stereo receiver. A receiver can be 
any component that receives or tunes broadcast signals, or AM/
FM radio. Typically refers to the single component that includes 
a preamplifier, surround processor, multi-channel amplifier, and 
AM/FM tuner.
Used by some remote controls, to control devices because it 
doesn’t have the same line-of-sight restrictions as IR (infrared) 
signals.
A read-only optical audio disc aimed at providing much higher 
quality of digital audio reproduction than the compact disc.
A service in the United States that provides digital programming 
directly from satellites. Currently the  main providers for service 
are XM and Sirrus.
One mode of operation of digital television where the 
broadcaster transmits pictures with detail similar to, or slightly 
better than, today’s analog television. Since the picture contains 
less information, there is “room” in the digital signal multicast 
broadcasting.
Also referred to as a tuner or a receiver. A stereo receiver is any 
component that receives or tunes, broadcast signals, or AM/FM 
radio. Typically refers to the single component that includes a 
preamplifier, surround processor, multi-channel amplifier, and
