Welcome
Product Overview
Thank you for choosing the Bose® VideoWave®
entertainment system for your home.
The VideoWave system features an HD monitor, and
comes with a control console, a remote control, and
a dock for iPod.
By now, your system should be successfully set up
and, after running the ADAPTiQ® audio calibration
system, the sound should be calibrated for your room.
If these tasks have not been performed, please refer to
the VideoWave system setup guide. If you wish to add
another device to your system, see “Changing Your
System Setup” on page 27.

INTRODUCTION
• You only see the controls you need. For example,
when you are watching a television program on your
cable set-top box and you touch the click pad, the
system activates the control frame on the screen,
presenting only the controls necessary to operate the
set-top box. Or, when you are viewing a DVD, the
system will present only the controls needed to
operate the DVD player.
System overview
The VideoWave® entertainment system offers a unique
approach to controlling external devices like a cable
set-top box, Blu-ray Disc™ DVD player, or iPod. The
solution relies on a single remote control that is
significantly easier to use than conventional universal
remote controls.
The remote itself has only the buttons necessary for
basic control of the system. Controls that are unique to
your connected devices appear on the screen and are
accessed by using the click pad located on the remote
control. To select these additional controls, you touch
the click pad, glide your thumb to the function (or
control) you want, and press down on the click pad itself.
Control
frame
This approach is different and will likely require some
getting used to at the beginning, but we believe it offers
benefits that you will appreciate as you use the system:
• Simplified remote control.
Only the most basic functions
are located on the remote to
make it easy for anyone to
operate the system.
• Your eyes don’t have to leave the screen.
When you want to select a control, instead of looking
down at the remote to find it, you can simply use your
thumb to highlight the control on the screen and
select. All without ever looking away from the screen.

INTRODUCTION
System updates
Registering your product
The Unify® intelligent integration system represents the
best way we know how to overcome the challenge of
trying to control external sources in a world where there
are no consistent industry standards for such control.
We believe that our approach is a vast improvement
over using multiple, complex remote controls.
Registering your product enables you to receive
notifications of system software updates to keep your
product performing optimally.
Please follow the instructions on your product
registration card to register. Failure to register will not
affect your limited warranty rights or your eligibility to
obtain system software updates.
However, in some cases, the system may be unable to
identify your particular source. For example, there may
be times when you need to perform a system update,
because you’ve purchased a new source with its own
non-standard remote control. Fortunately, we’ve made
the process easy, and it’s available for free from Bose.
Please see “Performing a system update” on page 34
for more information.

3. After selecting the last digit, wait for the queue to
shift the numbers to the left, indicating that they are
being sent to the source.
Entering channel numbers
The numbers along the top of the control frame appear
for any source that uses a keypad on an infrared (IR)
remote control. Although these controls are primarily
used for entering channel numbers for a set-top box,
you can use them to select chapter numbers for a DVD
player or track numbers for a CD player.
OR
Press the OK remote control button to send the
numbers immediately.
Channel number
queue
When you enter a number, it appears in a queue on the
screen. The number of digits the queue can hold is set
at the factory to a maximum of 3 digits. If your set-top
box requires a different number of digits for channel
numbers, you can change this in the Options menu
(page 25). For example, if you need to enter channel
numbers as high as 9999, you will need to change the
number of digits to 4. If your set-top box only goes up
to channel 99, then you should set the number of digits
to 2.
To enter a channel number:
1. Using the click pad remote, select the first digit of
the channel number.
The channel number queue appears on the screen
containing the first digit.
2. Select the remaining digits and add them to
the queue.
