The Automator
Getting Started
Congratulations!
You’ve purchased one of the most advanced and easy to
setup control systems available. The Automator’s built-in
library includes thousands of different brands and models
of remote controls. In most systems, all you have to do to
setup the Automator is enter which brands and models
you own. If you own a component too new to be in the
library, the Automator uses advanced DoubleTap
Learning technology to quickly set each Automator
button, one at a time. Setting up your Automator to
replace all your existing remote controls can be done in
a few minutes. Basic Setup is described on pages 5 to 14.
The Automator’s exciting advanced features automate
and customize operation in many ways. You could use
Macro Setup to power on all of your components and
start the show with the press of one button! With the
Automator’s unique Favorite Channel capability, you can
tune in a channel with the press of one button instead of
entering the entire channel number. Any of the button
names on the display can be edited as you like. It is best
to delay any Advanced Setup (described on pages 15 to
29) until after you finish Basic Setup.

Basic Setup
You can start setting up your Automator using either the
Pre-Programmed Method or the Learning Method.
However, all the buttons of the Automator are setup at
once with the Pre-Programmed Method, so it is usually
faster than the one-button-at-a-time Learning Method.
Pre-Programmed Method
Power on the A/V component you wish to setup, so that
1
you can test codes by sending power off commands.
Refer to the pre-programmed code tables on pages
2
33 - 47 and write down the code numbers listed
for your A/V component. The code numbers are
listed by categories of devices, then by brand. See
page 33 for a category list.
Press and hold both the MAIN and ENT (Enter)
3
buttons for approximately three seconds. The top
of the display will show “SETUP”. You are in
SETUP mode now.
Note: You have 30 seconds to perform a step while you are
in SETUP mode. If you don’t press a button within that time,
the Automator will time out and return to normal operation.

URC-200
In this step you verify the type of component you
6
plan to operate with this device button. If the
flashing name is correct, press SELECT.
SELECT
If the name flashing in the display is incorrect (for example,
you are setting up AUX to operate a Laser Disc Player), use
the UP and DOWN buttons to change the flashing name
to the correct type of component.
Note: Each name that appears in the display may
include several types of components. For example, the
DVD category includes DVD players and Laser Disc
Players. See page 33 for a list of component types each
Code Table contains.
Point the Automator at the component, then enter
7
the first three digit code number from your notes
using the numbered buttons. After you enter each
three digit number, look at the component to see
if it turned off.
Use the
number
buttons to
enter the
code
number.
Continue to enter code numbers until the
component powers off.
For Example: I have a Sony TV. I found the code
numbers 070, 139,147, 126, 185, 194 and 085 under
Sony in the TV TABLE. Using the numbered buttons on
the Automator, I entered 070 and looked at the TV. It
didn’t turn off, so I entered 139, then 147 and so on,
until I found the code that powered off the TV.

Note: If your component fails to turn off after you have
entered all the code numbers listed for your brand, you
can scan through the other brands in the table by alternately
pressing the UP (or DOWN) and POWER OFF buttons.
When the component turns off, save the code
number you entered by pressing the SAVE button
that appears on the screen.

When the display shows “MAIN”, you are back in
10
normal operating mode. Now it’s time to test all
the buttons. If some buttons don’t work, try
repeating steps 1-9, to see if you can improve the
match to your component.
For Example: My Sony TV powered off with TV code
number 139. However the number buttons didn’t work
when I tested them. So, I repeated steps one to ten, using
other code numbers and eventually discovered that when
code number 185 is set, all the buttons work perfectly.
Repeat steps one through nine for each of your
11
devices. In most systems, you can finish basic
setup in just a few minutes and put all your old
remote controls away.
If you are still missing commands to control any
of your devices, use the Learning Method on the
next page.

Page 12
The Automator
Learning Method
The Automator can learn commands from your old
remote controls one-button-at-a-time by following
these simple steps:
Line-up the Automator with your old remote con-
1
trol, head-to-head, one or two inches apart.
Press and hold the MAIN and ENT (Enter) buttons
2
at the same time for approximately three seconds.
The top of the display will show “SETUP”. You are
in SETUP mode now.
Note: You have 30 seconds to perform a step while you are
in SETUP mode. If you don’t press a button within that time,
the Automator will time out and return to normal operation.
Press the LEARN button.

the
Device
Buttons.
Press
any
Button.
Note: If you don’t see the display button you would like to
teach, use the PAGE buttons. The only buttons you can’t
teach are the PAGE and MAIN buttons.
Once you press a button, the top of the display will
change from “LEARN” to “READY”.
11
Page 14
The Automator
Press and hold the button on your old remote con-
7
trol until the display changes to “RETRY”.
Press and hold the same button on your old remote
8
control once again.
The Automator’s unique DoubleTap learning technology
ensures compatibility with the widest variety of remote
controls ever!
Once you have taught the button twice, the display
9
will change to either “GOOD” or “FAILED”.
If the “GOOD” label appears on top of the display,
you were successful. Now, press the next button you
wish to teach. Keep repeating steps 6 through 9 until
you have learned all the buttons you want.
If the “FAILED” label appears on top of the display,
try to teach the same button in Automator once
again by repeating steps 6-8.
Continue to teach any commands from any of your
10
remote controls by repeating steps 5-9 (to go back
to step five, press MAIN once).
Once you completed teaching all the buttons, return
11
to normal operation by pressing the MAIN button
twice. Test all your new commands. If any of them
don’t work, try learning again using these notes:
Move to another room. Plasma TVs, sunlight, halogen or
quartz lighting can interfere with the learning process.
Although the old remote control seems to work fine,
change the batteries to fresh alkaline batteries.
Vary the distance between the remote controls
gradually. Try 1/4”, 1”, 2”and so on, up to 4 feet.
Tap the button on the original remote control instead of
pressing and holding it during the learning process.

Volume Control Punch Through
In most home entertainment systems, the sound
volume is only controlled by one device. In some
systems, it is the TV speakers that make the sound, so
you would use the TV device on the Automator to raise
and lower the volume. In another system, it might be a
surround sound receiver and speakers that control the
sound, so you would use the Automator’s AUDIO
device to adjust the volume. Constantly switching the
Automator to TV or AUDIO to adjust the volume is
inconvenient in daily life.
You can use Punch Through to set the Automator’s
volume buttons to always control the sound in your
system. That way when the Automator is set to VCR or
DVD, the volume up, down and mute buttons will
work perfectly without switching back to AUDIO or
TV. Here’s how:
Enter Setup mode by pressing and holding both
1
MAIN and ENT for three seconds. The top of the
display shows that you are in SETUP mode now.
Note: You have 30 seconds for each step, otherwise the
Automator will time out automatically.
Press the PAGE UP button to get to page 2 of the
2
SETUP menu. Press the PUNCH button.
Press the VOL button. The display confirms by
3
displaying “VOL” at the top of the screen. This sets
up the group of three buttons (Volume Up, Volume
Down and Mute) in one action!
13
Select

Page 16
The Automator
The bottom of the display flashes ”PUNCH TO”.

Press the device button for the device that doesn’t
have volume control commands yet (i.e.,DVD).
This is the device you are going to PUNCH TO for
the volume and mute commands.
Note: If you wish to PUNCH to the MAIN device, press
the POWER OFF button at this time.
The bottom of the display will then flash “PUNCH
5
FROM”. Now you select the device that has the
volume commands you want (i.e.,TV for systems
using the TV speakers, AUDIO for systems with
surround sound receivers). The bottom of the
display will flash “SAVED”.
Select
the Device
you want to
“Punch To”
Repeat steps 3-5 until all your devices operate the
6
volume perfectly. Press the MAIN button twice to
return to normal operating mode and test your
Punch Through settings.
Note: The Punch Through feature is not limited to
volume and can also be applied to channel or other
functions. If you find yourself switching to a particular
device frequently to use a group of controls, consider
using Punch Through for another group, as listed here:
VOL - Volume Up, Volume Down and Mute
CH - Channel Up, Channel Down and Prev. Channel
PLAY - Play, Stop, Pause, Rewind and Fast Forward
VOD - Guide, Menu, Info, Exit, Up, Down, Left, Right, Sel
POWER - Power On and Power Off

Macro Button Setup
Imagine turning on your TV, your DVD player and
your surround sound receiver by pressing a single
button on your Automator! What would normally take
three remotes and three button pushes, the Automator
can accomplish with the press of one button. We call
that a “Macro”. Any of the Display buttons, the Power
On or the Power Off buttons (on any Device or Page)
can be set to be Macro buttons!
To setup a macro button, follow these easy steps:
Enter the SETUP mode by pressing and holding
1
both MAIN and ENT for three seconds.
Note: You have 30 seconds for each step, otherwise
the Automator will time out automatically.
Press the MACRO button. The top of the display
2
will show “MACRO”. The bottom of the display will
flash “SELECT”.
Navigate to the Device and Page where there is a
3
button you would like to set as a Macro button using
the MAIN, DEVICE, and PAGE buttons.
Advanced Options:
If you wish to set one of the DEVICE buttons as a macro,
on step 3, press the Page Up button twice. The top of the
display changes to MAIN, and you can navigate to MAIN
page 1 or page 2 before going on to Step 4.
Another option for DEVICE button macros is to only send
the macro if the button is pressed and held. This is setup
by entering a delay as the first step of the macro. The
amount of delay determines how long the user must press
the button before the macro is sent. The advantage of this
option is that a normal press of the DEVICE button will
simply switch devices without issuing the macro.
20
Page 23
URC-200
Press the button you want to set as a Macro
4
button. The top of the screen will display the label
of the button you selected. At the bottom of the
screen it displays “STEP0”, indicating that no
macro steps have been entered yet.
Navigate to the Device and Page that has a button
5
you want in your macro using the MAIN, DEVICE
and PAGE buttons. Then press the button with the
command you want. Whenever a button is
pressed, another Macro step is counted and
displayed at the bottom of the screen.
Don’t worry about the number of steps. Each
macro button can store up to 190 steps, so you
are not likely to run out of steps!
Note: You can program delays in between commands
by pressing the PAUSE button. Each press adds half a
second to the delay.
6
Press the LIGHT button to end your macro. A new
screen displays three choices:
SAVE —
UNDO —
EXIT —
Press the MAIN button twice to return to

Enter SETUP mode by pressing and holding both
1
MAIN and ENT for three seconds.
Note: You have 30 seconds for each step, otherwise the
Automator will time out automatically.
Go to page two of the SETUP menu via the PAGE
2
UP button.
Press the RECAL button. The display changes to the
3
recall screens. The screen automatically switches
between four screens, alternately flashing page one
devices and code numbers then those for page two.
Note: Pay attention to the page numbers on the bottom
of the screen. Page 1 code numbers are the ones setup
for the Page1 Devices. Page 2 code numbers are the
ones setup for the Page 2 Devices.
Write down the code numbers as they appear. Page
4
32 of this manual gives a convenient list for you to
note your settings.
Return to normal operation by pressing the MAIN
5
button twice.

The Automator
The Optional Expander
You can use the Automator as you would your other
remote controls. It transmits very powerful line-of-sight
output using infrared light commands (invisible to the
naked eye). When you point the Automator at the components, expect the range to be between 30 and 50
feet. When the remote is not pointed in the general
direction of the components, the range will vary
(depending on reflective surfaces, lighting, etc.).
However, the Automator also sends radio signals in
every direction. By purchasing the optional Expander
(a radio receiver), you can operate your equipment
with the Automator 50 to 100 feet away (through
walls, doors, cabinets, inside or outside). Since the
Expander picks up the Automator's radio signals from
any direction, regardless of distance, the Automator
doesn’t have to be pointed!
Nothing has to be done to the Automator for this
feature to work. Every time you press a button on the
Automator, it sends both a standard infrared command
AND a radio signal. If you install the Expander kit, the
MRF-100 will receive the Automator’s radio signals
and translate them into the infrared commands that
control your components.
Note: The Automator's radio signals will not control
components directly. You must have an Expander to
receive the Automator's radio signals. Components
that came with "no pointing" radio remote controls cannot
be operated by the Automator unless the component can
be switched to standard infrared control via its internal
menus. Some remote control ceiling fans are radio only and
cannot be operated by the Automator.

Page 33
The Automator sends
radio signal to the
Expander, which is a
radio receiver.
The Expander converts radio signals to standard
infrared commands and sends them out via a
built-in front blaster to components in the same
cabinet space.
URC-200
Self-adhesive “flashers” (included in the
Expander kit) affix to the front panels of your
components. The flashers relay infrared commands to components out-of-sight of the
MRF-100 front blaster. The flashers plug into
the MRF-100 rear flasher line output jacks.
Each flasher has a 10’ cable to easily reach
components on nearby shelves.

Pre-Programmed Code Tables
The Automator’s Pre-Programmed code library is divided
into categories (TV, VCR, AUX, etc.). Each category
actually includes many types of components. For example,
the VCR category includes TV/VCR combo units.
Within each category, the code numbers are listed in
rows by brand (Sony, Panasonic, B & K, etc.). Some
brands have more than one three digit code for you to
try. Just circle the correct row and refer to it while you
setup (step-by-step instructions for using Pre-Programmed
codes are found on page 5).

The Automator
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a “macro” button?
It is an Automator button you set to make a lot of
things happen when you press it. For example, to
watch a DVD in most home theaters requires several
remote controls and many button presses (power up
the TV, power up the surround sound, power up the
DVD player, set the TV to the correct video input, set
the surround sound to the correct audio input and
finally; press play on the DVD player remote control).
Instead of pressing all of those buttons one at a time,
the Automator enables you to setup one button that
does it all automatically with one press. For more
information on how and why you should setup macro
buttons, watch the Quick Setup DVD tutorial or read
pages 20-21.
If the batteries run out, will I lose my settings?
No. The Automator stores all of your settings in
non-volatile FLASH memory. You could remove the
batteries for months, replace them at your convenience
and the Automator would still remember your settings.
Who can I call for more answers?
The Universal Remote Control technical support and
customer service staff are ready to answer any
questions you might have.
