## Description

The RM-VLZ620 provides centralized control of all of your Audio Video devices, saving the trouble of operating other A/V devices with different remote controls. To use with non-Sony A/V devices, or Sony devices that are not preset at the factory , you need to set the manufacturer’s code for each device to any of the eight Device Select buttons. You can centralize control of all of your Sony devices and can also control non-Sony devices. You can teach the RM-VLZ620 new functions and perform a consecutive procedure by simply pressing one button.

Review: Outstanding product at a great price - Before = Five remote controls: (1) Verizon FiOS 500GB DVR; (2) Sharp AQUOS LCD HD TV; (3) Panasonic Blu-ray player; (4) Sony A/V system; (5) Roku HD streaming player. After = One remote control that completely replaces all the other five in day-to-day operations. Setup took a couple of hours, in part because I actually read user manuals, in part because of my incompetence (I must remember to wait for SET light to finish flashing before moving to the next step!), and in part because there was a lot to do. The RM-VLZ620 recognized my Sony A/V system automatically, with no code-entering on my part, but codes were required for the TV, Blu-ray player, and DVR. The activities that took the most time were training the device to impersonate my Roku remote control, for which no code was provided but which luckily has very few buttons, and setting up what Sony calls the "system control" buttons, buttons that store a sequence of commands for one or more devices (think of them as key-press macros). In order to help you understand the effect the Sony RM-VLZ620 has had on my life, I have written a brief play. It's entitled "The Effect the Sony RM-VLZ620 has had on My Life," and is in two acts. ************************************************ "The Effect the Sony RM-VLZ620 has had on My Life," by The Gold Tooth ***** Dramatis Personae ***** Father: An intrepid technologist blessed with a rich wife and nine-year-old boy and girl twins Mother (non-speaking part): A saintly woman of rare and spectacular beauty, also an excellent cook Alex: A budding scientist with grave character defects much given to insolence, talking back, irritating his sister, and simulating the noises of gunfire, explosions, and bodily effluences Emma: A future veterinary artist or artistic veterinarian who delights in the company of animals, drawing, pleasing her friends with little homemade gifts, and snuggling with her parents ***** Act I: Yesterday ***** Father (picking up TV remote control from under cushion): "Alex, where's the remote control for the DVR?" Alex: "You've got it." Father: "No, I don't. This is the TV remote. We need the one for the DVR to actually watch anything. Where is it? Emma, do you know?" Emma (reluctantly): "Alex had it. I saw him stirring his oatmeal with it this morning." Alex (shouting): "I did not! It fell in!" Emma (not quite so reluctantly): "No it didn't! He was stirring and then he licked it." Alex (indignantly, as if addressing mental defectives): "I *had* to lick it, it had maple syrup on it!" Father: "Alex! What on earth ....? Okay, what did you do with it when you'd finished preparing your breakfast?" Alex: "Well, Tommy said that if you take the back off and put ground-up eggshells .... [hugely long and rambling tale omitted, the purpose of which appears to be to establish that at no point did Alex do anything reprehensible or censurable, and that other people were to blame even if he did]. Father (sighing deeply): "Bring it home from school tomorrow, please Alex, and clean it in the *outside* sink, mind. Now, where's the remote for the A/V system? Can't watch anything without that!" ***** Act II: Today ***** Father picks up Sony RM-VLZ620 and presses System Control button #1. Automatically, TV turns on, DVR turns on, A/V system turns on and switches itself to the appropriate input. Father settles on couch, emits the sound that Emma calls "Daddy's purr," and changes channel to C-SPAN2 to watch a Heritage Foundation discussion on tort reform. Children scream.
Review: A nice update to the RM-VL610 - I purchased this remote to replace a well-worn Sony RM-VL610 that had served me well for a few years, but was starting to show its age. I think it's a nice evolution of the prior model. Subtle but notable changes (upgrades?): - Ergonomic refinements: a ribbed back and rubber strip around the edge (which I missed from my old RM-VL900 way back in the day) make it easier to grip, and the more conventional battery cover is more secure than on the VL610, which had exchangeable colored backs that were kinda neat but slid off too easily. The VLZ620 is slightly longer at the bottom, which makes the lower buttons more comfortable to use. The all-critical Button feel is pretty much identical to the old model - firm with decent feedback. It's not as tactile as the RM-YD029 that came with my Sony XBR TV, but better than the typical cheapo universal remotes from the cable company. - Range and spread were always good on the VL610; never had any complaints. The VLZ620 packaging boasts "Ultra 3X" spread, with an illustration showing the IR waves spreading past 180 degrees. The IR lens has 3 convex bubbles which ostensibly spready the signal, and sure enough, you can point the remote almost completely backwards and it'll still register (at least on my Sony TV). Pretty impressive. - The component buttons have been modernized: CBL/SAT is now the 2nd button next to TV (instead of DVD), the 3rd button button is now DVR/PVR, a BD (BluRay) button has been added, and TAPE has been removed (who has a tape deck anymore??). They also added a dedicated hard button just for TV power - very handy if your turn-on sequence gets out of sync and you need to power up/down your TV w/o leaving CBL mode. - The numeric keypad has been swapped with the playback controls, so they're now below the volume/channel buttons at the bottom. I think another reviewer felt this was more awkward, but I actually find it to be a more natural setup - you can quickly grab the bottom of the control and operate the most critical buttons for TV watching w/o having to slide your hand up the wand. - There's now a dedicated INFO button (yay, finally), arrayed around the cursor control along with GUIDE, FAVORITES and LIST, all of which are cable/satellite friendly. PAGE +/- are now just above the cursor, naturally positioned to the left and right. Overall the layout feels better generalized and more intuitive. - The "record" function now takes only a single button to engage (it used to have a safeguard that required simultaneously pressing the play button) - more appropriate for the "record all the shows all the time RIGHT NOW" DVR age. - The pre-programmed code for my Comcast Motorola DVR was not perfect, but a lot closer than the last model - I only had to reprogram a few functions. Looks like Sony put some effort into updating the codes. The only negative I can think of is that the programming procedure is a bit more convoluted than before, requiring the entry of random 3 digit codes to enable different modes. Also, the remote times out programming mode a bit too quickly, annoying when you're rifling through the documentation looking for codes and sequences. Overall though it's all pretty straightforward and workable. All in all, a solid 4-star product; for around 20 bucks, i'm uprating it to 5 stars for value. p.s. I've seen a few comments about the remote requiring new alkaline batteries to function properly. Just FYI that I'm using a set of freshly-charged Sanyo Eneloop rechargeables with no issues at all, including the learning function. Other brands of NiMH rechargeables may not be as consistent (Eneloops are amazing), so YMMV; when in doubt, use fresh alkalines.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I don't see an AM/FM feature.  Does that mean it is not made to control my amplifier/tuner?**
A: Once your amp/rcvr is programmed in you can select that button - (to focus control on the receiver) then go down to the 'input' button to toggle between receiver functions until you get to the AM/FM feature.

**Q: Is there a (Volume) MUTE button on this remote? Cannot see a dedicated button in the photograph, and that probably my most used button ;)**
A: I just bought this remote, and I can confirm that it has a Mute button. The remote in the photo has two white buttons between the "VOL" and "CH" buttons, labeled (top to bottom) "MENU" and "RECALL". However the one I received has two white buttons between VOL and CH labeled "RECALL" and "MUTING". I'm thinking the one in the photo was defective since there's a black MENU right above the white MENU button. On my remote, MUTING is indeed activating the Mute function on the Kenwood receiver I programmed it to control.

**Q: does this remote work for a samsung tv?**
A: Yes, it works with my SAMSUNG 4K HDTV I purchased in 2016. All basic functions work, however not as well as the original remote. There does not seem to be direct access to the app menu but "input" gets you close enough.

**Q: Is this remote an ir or an rf controller?**
A: Hi Chong, this is an IR Remote Control. Thanks! ^Ron

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best remote for the price. It does it all!
*by J***E on March 31, 2011*

I originally purchased the Sony RM-AV2100 years ago and it worked flawlessly on all of my main home entertainment equipment. As the buttons got worn over the years, I stepped up to the RM-AX4000 in which I really fell in love with. I just wish Sony continued to make them. All the macros I programmed worked very well, and I really programmed that remote to do it all with a one button push. So after replacing the upstairs TV and DVR, and I could no longer find a 4000, I decided on the RM-VL-600. Again I was able to program it to run the DVR, DVD and TV and do all the macro switching and settings with the push of a single button. So now after 5 years, my AX-4000 buttons are getting hard to press. I did a lot of searching around and almost purchased a Harmony One, but didn't want to pay the price. So I decided to try the Sony RM-VLZ620 since it was the upgrade to the VL-600, and the price was right. It took a little time to set up, since the included codes did not work on some of my equipment, like the Denon DVD player or Parasound processor, so I tried the learning funciton, which I prefer anyway since you can assign which button you want for certain functions. After getting everything programmed, macros included, I was very impressed with this remote. In fact I think it is as good as, if not better than the RM-AX4000, even though I prefer the LCD touch screen with a backlight, and being able to rename some of the soft buttons. So this little $20 remote was worth getting and it can keep up with the expensive big boys. It also has 3 IR LED's for a wider and stronger operation, so it never has missed any of the steps when performing the macros. I would recommend this over the Harmony One, especially for the price difference. As a no brainer, make sure you use fresh alkaline batteries when programming it. As an example of one of the macros I have programmed into it, when I watch a blu-ray movie, it can switch inputs on the TV. Turn the TV speakers off, power on the blu-ray player, powers on the Parsound processor and switch the input to blu-ray and start the movie. When the movie is over, I press a system control button, and it stops the blu-ray player, powers it off, lowers the volume on the processor, switches the processor to the FM station I listen to, powers it off, sets the TV input back to TV and turn the TV speakers back on. You can only program 16 functions for each macro you use. But what is nice is you have 12 buttons to perform individual macos on.(Device select buttons and the four System Control buttons). I also recommend taking your time when programming it, and familiarize yourself with the manual before you start. It comes preprogrammed for Sony products and even has a Device select button for a blu-ray player as well as a DVD player. Now for the cons. I wish it had a back-lit display and you could rename some of the buttons. Also on the older RM-VL-600, if you are watching a DVD and you use a macro to go back to TV, it will finish the macro function, and set the remote back to TV on the Device Select. But with the VLZ-620, the Device Select button will stay on the DVD button, so you have to go back to the TV button manually. My wife always forgets to press the TV button after watching a movie and tells me the remote doesn't work for TV. I gave it 4 stars because of the cons which really are minor. I also wish you could rename some of the buttons. Other than these few cons, I highly recommend this remote. Update 07/20/2012 Just an update that I just purchased an Oppo BDP-93 from Amazon, and I had no problem having the RM-VLZ620 learn all the commands and 'teach' some macros. So save yourself some money on those high dollar remotes, when this under $20 unit will perform just as well.
