INTRODUCTION
The A-SRC1 Remote Control is designed for use with
the Russound A-BUS A-C68 controller and system
keypads (A-KP3,A-K5L and A-KSC).It is designed
to operate source devices and the audio system key-
pads.The A-SRC1 controls up to seven devices (six
A-BUS sources and one local source).For best
results,please read and follow all the remaining
instructions and keep this guide for future reference.
FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS

should click when the cover is locked.
4. Test the unit by pressing Power and any mode
key.If the batteries are inserted correctly, the
LED will blink once.
PROGRAMMING A DEVICE
Note: S1 - S6,Vol +/-,Mute and Power are system
commands and are the same for any source.All
other buttons are dependent upon the device code
associated with the source.
Before proceeding,find the codes for the devices you
want to program in,under “Manufacturer’s Codes”
in this manual.To control Universal TV,VCR or
DVD,Cable or Satellite Receivers,Amplifier or Tuner,
and Auxiliary devices,follow these steps.
1. Turn on the device (e.g.,DVD
player) and if needed,load media.
2. Press a device key (S1 - S6).
3. Press and hold SETUP until the red LED
blinks twice,then release.
4. Enter the first five-digit code for your
device.The LED blinks once as each digit is entered.
If the code is valid,the LED blinks twice.
Note: If the LED does not blink twice,repeat steps 2
to 4 and try entering the code again.
5. Aim the remote at the device and press a
function button.The device should in turn perform
the requested function.If it does not,repeat steps
3-5,trying each code for your brand until you find a
code that works.If you cannot find a code that
works see “Searching for Your Code”in this manual.
6. Repeat steps 1-5 for the other devices you
want to control.For future reference,write down
each working device code.
SEARCHING FOR YOUR CODE
Note: S1 - S6,Vol +/-,Mute and Power are the same
for any source.All other buttons are dependent upon
the device code associated with the source.
If your device does not respond to the remote after
trying all codes listed for your brand,or if your
brand is not listed,try searching for your code:
1. Press a device key once.
2. Press and hold SETUP until the red LED
blinks twice,then release.
3. Enter 9-9-1,then the device group number
(see below).The LED blinks twice.
0 Cable (Cable Converters,
Video Accessories, Satellite
Receivers)
1 TV (TVs)
2 VCR (VCRs,DVD players)
3 Audio (Audio Amplifiers,
Audio Amp/Tuners,
CD players)
4. Aim the remote at the device and press
POWER.The remote sends IR codes from its library
to the selected device,starting with the most popu-
lar code first.If the device responds,go to step 6.
5. If the device does not respond,press CH+.the
remote will try the next code.Continue until the
device responds.Press CH- to try the previous code.
6. Press SETUP to lock in code.To searchfor
other devicecodes, repeat steps 1-5.
CHECKING THE CODES
If you have set up the remote using the procedure in
“Searching for Your Code,”you may need to find out
which five-digit code is operating your equipment.
For example,to find out which code is assigned to
your TV:
1. Press the S# key to which the TV is assigned.
2. Press and hold SETUP until the red LED
blinks twice,then release.
3. Enter 9 9 0.The LED blinks twice.
4. To view the code’s first digit,press 1.Count the
LED blinks (e.g.,three blinks =3),and enter the
number in the appropriate device list in step 6 of
“Programming a Device.”If a code digit is 0,the
LED does not blink.
5. Repeat step 4 for the remaining digits,using 2
for the second digit,and so on.
6. To check for other device codes,repeat
steps 1-5,using the appropriate S# key.
USING LEARNING
The A-SRC1 includes a Learning feature so you can
add functions that are unique to your home enter-
tainment devices (e.g.,VCR Tracking Up or Down).
The following precautions apply.
• The original remote controls must be in working
order for learning to work properly.
• Learned keys are mode specific,so each one can
store a unique function for each mode.
• Do not use the following keys for learning: Device
Keys,SETUP,BACK,or Record.
• Learning capacity is approximately 40 to 100 keys,
depending on the code being learned.
• Certain device codes are not learnable including
multi-frequency types,some high frequency ones,
and other unusual formats.
• For optimum learning,avoid high levels of ambient
light such as natural sunlight or energy-efficient flu-
orescent lights.
• Have the original remote controls handy before
programming learning.
Programming a learned key
Note: If more than 15 seconds pass between key
presses,the remote exits programming.
1. Press and hold SETUP until LED flashes twice.
2. Press 9 7 5.
3. Press a device key once (e.g.,S1 - S6) to assign
a mode for learning.
4. Place the A-SRC1 head-to-head (about 2”
apart) from your original remote control.Also locate
the key (on original remote control) that will serve
as the teaching function.
5. On the A-SRC1,press a key where the learned
function will be stored.
6. On the original remote,press and hold the the
key to be learned.The A-SRC1 LED will turn
off.Continue holding the key on the original remote
until the A-SRC1 LED blinks twice.
Note: If the LED displays one long blink,a learning
error has occurred.Try repeating this step again
until a successful capture occurs.If the function is
still not captured,press and hold SETUP to exit pro-
gramming.Review the learning precautions listed
above, or the Troubleshooting tips below,before
beginning again at step 1.
7. To program another key for the same source,
repeat steps 5-6.To program another device,repeat
steps 1-6.Press and hold SETUP to exit program-
ming.
Deleting a single learning key
