Direct Programming

To set up the ARi3G to control your device:

1. Find the code for your brand of device in the accompanying code list. Codes are listed by brand name. Make sure

that the device you want to control is switched on (not in standby).

2. Press the device key for the device you want to control (TV for a television, AUD for an audio receiver, or MEDIA for a docking station) to select the device.

3. Press and hold (mute) and Menu until the device key (e.g., TV) blinks twice (it will blink once then twice).
