push down on the tab and
lift the cover off.
2. Match the batteries to the
+ and - marks inside the
battery case, then insert 2
AAA Alkaline batteries.
3. Press the battery cover
back into place.
Power-On Default
The remote powers on in TV mode.
Battery Saver
Y our remote automatically turns off if the buttons are
depressed more than 30 seconds. This will save your
batteries should your remote get stuck in a place where
the buttons remain depressed (e.g., between the sofa
cushions).
Code Saver
Y ou will have up to 10 minutes to change the batteries
in your remote without losing codes you have
programmed. However, do not press any buttons until
batteries are installed in the remote. If buttons are
pressed without batteries in the remote, all codes will be
lost.
Code Setup
The SETUP button is used to setup the remote to
operate your TV, VCR, etc. You can either setup the
remote using the code for your brand of product, from
the code tables (on separate sheet), or you can search
through the library of codes until you find a code that
works for your product.
Please refer to “Programming with Code Search” on page
10 for more information on using the code search feature
to learn how to search through the library of codes for
your products.
NOTE: You can store any kind of code under any mode
(except TV). I.E. you can store a VCR code under the
DVD button, or a DVD code under the CBL/SAT
button, etc. However, you can only store TV codes
under the TV button.
SETUP
TV V olume/Mute Punch Through Feature
The TV Volume/Mute punch through feature lets you
control the Volume and Mute function of your TV in any
mode programmed to be a VCR, DVD, CABLE or SA T
device, without needing to change to TV mode.
VCR/DVD Punch Through Feature
This remote lets you Punch through to the last VCR or
DVD device used. Normally other types of remotes only
punch-through (from another Mode) on the 6 VCR
buttons, to the device programmed under the VCR
Mode button. This is not much use if you are using a
DVD programmed under a Mode other than VCR. This
remote punches-through to the last VCR or DVD device
you used. For example, if you have 3 DVD/VCR devices
programmed into this remote, the last one you accessed
on the remote will be the one that has control of the 6
VCR/DVD buttons when in any other mode.
To operate buttons
below this line you
must Initialize the
remote into a Freewire
Messenger Hub. See
page 14.
