Using the MAS3 with a Remote Control Remote operations of the MAS3 are accomplished through the use of just about any remote control. A remote control is not supplied with the MAS3, yet the versatile programming modes of the MAS3 allows the MAS3 to work with virtually any remote control.

Restoring the MAS3 to Factory Defaults Restoring the MAS3 to the factory defaults There are many ways to program the MAS3’s remote capabilities. Most learning modes require the MAS3 to be in standby mode before learning can begin.
