The addition of the second chip gives far more capacity than needed (it essentially gives
the memory the capacity to store more than 1200 IR codes, when there are only
addresses to store 416). The IntelliFile II software will indicate that you are out of memory
when the text describing the codes you are dragging and dropping into your configuration
turns red. For more information on what happens when you run out of memory, see
Memory Usage on page 28 of the IntelliFile II Reference Manual.
If you do manage to legitimately run out of memory (see Memory Usage above), You
may continue to program with your software, but do not attempt to transfer the program to
the MSU until after you have added the second chip. If you do, the codes will be
scrambled and your system will experience extremely erratic operation.
Note: Some manufacturer’s codes (including Panasonic, RCA, and Pioneer) eat up
excessive memory. Be sure to teach these codes with quick bursts from the remote. DO
NOT PRESS AND HOLD WHILE TEACHING THESE CODES. Certain codes (Volume,
FF / Rew, etc.) require a “press-and-hold” of the button to learn and operate properly. Only
hold the button as long as necessary to ensure proper operation. It is strongly suggested
that you test all codes as you teach them!
If you unexpectedly run into the Memory limit and must get the system partially operational
for the customer until the Memory Upgrade chip arrives, the best strategy is to erase a few
IR commands, and transfer the program to the MSU with limited manual operation. Then
phone the office and have them order the Memory Upgrade (FG#00735).
When the Memory Upgrade Chip arrives, go back to the jobsite and complete the
programming. Note: The Memory Upgrade (or lack of memory) does not affect the
automation that occurs as the system is powered up and shut down, it only affects the
ability to store an additional number of IR codes in the Function Keys’ memory address
locations.
3C. Master Key Automation: Part 1 - One Touch System Turn On
By pressing a Master Key, the end user will trigger the following programmed “Events” to
occur. These events are displayed in the “Master Key Navigator” feature of the IntelliFile II
software. The “System Turn On” automation will power up and configure the home theater
system based on the actual status of the components at the time the Master key was
pressed.
Note: “System Turn On” automation is an automatic function of the IntelliControl System.
DO NOT attempt to manually program the “System Turn On” automation by including the
TV, Preamp, and Component power commands in the “Initial Sequences” for the Master
Keys. This will bypass all the sync features and the built-in intelligence which has made
the IntelliControl such a successful product.
The “TV Power”, “Preamp Power”, and “Component Power” commands are entered on
their respective “Tabs” in the IntelliFile II software. The appropriate “Power” commands are
automatically issued based on the “Audio Scene”, “Video Scene”, and “Component
Power” programming which is configured on the “Components” Tab in IntelliFile II. For
more Information, see Scene Setting on page 25 of the IntelliFile II Reference Manual.
