OVERVIEW OF THE HTR 3
• Controls up to 8 devices.
• 44 function keys.
• Learns up to 352 commands.
• Records up to 44 macros with a maximum of 64
commands each.
• Congurable punch-through.
• Key illumination with programmable timeout.
• Upgradable.
• Contains pre-programmed library of NAD remote codes.
The NAD HTR 3 is ready to operate NAD components right out
of the box, but it is really eight remotes in one. Each of the 8
DEVICE SELECTOR keys at the top of the handset can call up a
new “page” of remote control codes to be transmitted by the
remaining 44 keys. You may “teach” codes from any infrared-
remote controlled component, regardless of brand, to any or
all of these.
Obviously, the most logical system is that you teach the codes
from your DVD player to the [DVD] DEVICE SELECTOR “page,”
your television’s codes to the [TV] “page” and so on, but there is
no required scheme: You may load any commands to any key on
any page (see “Learning Codes From Other Remotes,” below).
The HTR 3 is already pre-programmed with a full complement of
NAD receiver commands on its [AMP] DEVICE SELECTOR page,
and as well as with library commands to operate most NAD-
brand DVD or CD components on the corresponding DEVICE
SELECTOR “pages.” These default commands are permanent:
Even if you teach the HTR 3 new commands to take their place,
the underlying library commands remain in place and can easily
be recalled should you add an NAD component to your system
later (see “Delete Mode”, below).
GETTING FAMILIAR WITH THE HTR 3
The HTR 3 is divided into two main sections. Eight DEVICE
SELECTOR keys at the top—[AMP], [DVD,] [TV,] and so on—set
the handset’s remaining keys to a “page” of commands to control
a particular component. A DEVICE SELECTOR key determines
only what component the HTR 3 will command; it does not
perform any function on the component. All of the remaining
keys are function keys that can “learn” control codes from
virtually any infrared remote controller, allowing you to teach the
codes of your equipment, regardless of brand, to the HTR 3.
All of the function keys on the [AMP] DEVICE SELECTOR “page”
are pre-programmed to control NAD ampliers, preampliers
and receivers. The HTR 3 can also command many other NAD
components, from its [DVD], [CD], [TUNER] and [CUSTOM] pages.
It is important to note that certain HTR 3 keys perform dierent
functions depending on the selected DEVICE SELECTOR “page.”
The color of the DEVICE SELECTOR key-labelling corresponds
to the labelling of the function keys. Most centrally, the black
[AMP] DEVICE SELECTOR “page” corresponds to the black as
well as white input-select labelling above the numeric keys:
When the HTR 3’s [AMP] DEVICE SELECTOR page is active; these
keys select the amplier or receiver inputs. Similarly, the purple
[DVD] DEVICE SELECTOR “page” corresponds to several purple
labels, the green [TV] page to green labels, and so on.
