remotely

'elsewhere' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adverbs. Maybe you can see an association between them that I don't see?

'turn up volume in bank' is the wordplay.
'turn up' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'volume' becomes 'tome' (a tome is a large or heavy book).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'bank' becomes 'rely' (to bank on something is to rely on it).
'tome' in reverse letter order is 'emot'.
'emot' going within 'rely' is 'REMOTELY'.

'from' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for remotely that I've seen before include "From a distance" , "from afar" , "far away" , "Possibly using electronic control" , "by any chance?" .)
