AT&T U-verse, U-verse A20-RF1 User Manual
Congratulations on your purchase of the AT&T U-verse TV Point Anywhere RF Remote Control.
This product has been designed to provide many unique and convenient features to enhance
your AT&T U-verse experience.
Your new remote control, along with the USB converter, provides you with the flexibility of
no longer having to "point" your remote control at the U-verse Receiver in order to change
channels or access any of the receiver features. Since this is a Universal Remote Control,
you have the ability to program up to three additional devices, such as a TV or DVD player.
Another key benefit of your new Remote is its ability to "learn" commands from the remote
controls for your other devices. You no longer have to worry about finding the right codes
or that your TV will not be able to work with your new Remote Control. As long as you
have the original remote that came with your TV or other devices, you can now program
those keys into your new AT&T U-verse RF Remote Control. Additional features for this
Remote Control are described in the remainder of this manual.
Note:
The RF Remote Control only controls the AT&T U-verse Receiver with the USB Converter
using RF (radio frequency) signals. All other devices are controlled with IR (Infrared)
signals.

NOTE: The USB Converter must be installed in the front USB port of the U-verse Receiver only.
It will not operate if installed in the USB ports on the back of the receiver.
NOTE: After installing the USB Converter, test the POWER, CHANNEL and VOLUME keys for proper
operation. If there is any problem, the USB Converter can be swiveled up or down for optimum
performance.
3. Setting up your Remote to control other devices (TV/DVD/etc)
To control other devices, your RF Remote Control needs to be programmed. For older devices,
the RF Remote Control contains the IR codes to control them. For newer models of devices
(less than 6 months old) it is likely that the RF Remote Control will have to “learn” the IR codes.
• If your device is older, start with Section 3A (Search for Device Codes).
If Method 1 doesn’t work, use Section 3B (Learning Device Codes).
• If your device is newer (less than 6 months), then start with Section 3B (Learning Device
Codes).

3A. Search for Device Codes
The Search method will scan through all the IR codes to find one that works with your TV
or other device.
STEP 1. Power on the device to be programmed.
STEP 2. Point the RF Remote Control at the selected device.
STEP 3. Press and hold a mode key or or along
with the ENTER key. Hold both keys for

the RF Remote Control flash twice to indicate you
are in search mode.
STEP 4. Search by pressing the SCAN \FF key
repeatedly until the device turns OFF. (The selected mode key will flash once
for each press of the SCAN \FF key.) Pause briefly between each key
press to allow your device enough time to respond.
STEP 5. Press the POWER button on the RF Remote to power the device back on.
Search for Device Codes (continued)
NOTE: If the device does not turn off and you have searched all available codes, you will
hear 8 beeps and the mode key will flash 8 times. If this happens, please start over at
Step 2 or proceed to 3B, Learning Device Codes.
NOTE: If the device does not turn on, you may have pressed the SCAN \FF key too many
times. Press the REW\ SCAN key to scan backwards and test the POWER button again.
STEP 6. Check VOLUME and and MUTE . Do not test using REW\ SCAN
SCAN \FF EXIT CHANNEL and FWD or number keys. If
there is any problem with any of the keys, press the SCAN \FF button and
search until you find a code which will operate all the functions properly.
STEP 7. Press the ENTER key to save the programming. The appropriate mode key
will give a long flash with a long beep, indicating successful programming.
NOTE: If the programming is interrupted or inactive for more than 15 seconds, the remote will
emit 8 short beeps and the mode keys will flash. This indicates the remote has left the
programming mode and returned to normal operation without saving any changes.
