Point and Press® Programming

This method allows you to program

the remote control without using codes. Instead, the remote control automatically finds the correct command that you select in a variety of codes until you find the code that operates your device. You then lock in the correct code as described below.

The following instructions describe how to program your remote control using the [CH +] or [CH -] buttons ("Power" function during programming). You may also program your remote control using other buttons / functions as described in Section 14. When using this method, there are several important points to remember:

• The order in which you program your electronic devices is not

important.

• There may be several codes that turn your electronic devices on / off (or perform other functions). Once you lock-in a code, be sure to check the available functions for that device (i.e. TV - Vol +/-, Mute, TV Input (Video Source button); VCR - Play, Stop..; DVD - Play, Stop...; AUDIO - Vol +/-, Mute) to see if they are operating.

• While the remote is searching for the correct setup code(s) for your electronic devices, it is possible that other (previously programmed) devices may turn on / off (or perform other functions). If this occurs, continue pressing the [CH +] or [CH -] buttons (or the buttons described in Section 14) until you find the correct code for the device you are programming.

• It may take several minutes for the remote to find the correct code that turns your device off (or performs another selected function). During this time, the power / mode buttons will illuminate in fast-rotation (i.e. CBL Æ TV Æ VCR Æ DVD Æ AUDIO Æ CBL…).

Programming your electronic devices using the [Ch +] or [Ch -] buttons (“Power” function during programming)...

1. Turn on all the electronic devices (TV, VCR, DVD, AUDIO) you want to program the remote to operate.

2. Press [OK], then [MUTE] together

until the power / mode buttons illuminate in slow-rotation (i.e. CBL Æ

TV Æ VCR Æ DVD Æ AUDIO Æ CBL…).

3. Press and hold the [CH +] button until one

device turns off. While you are pressing the [CH +] button, the power / mode buttons will illuminate in fast-rotation. As soon as one device turns off, release the [CH +] button.

4. Press [MUTE]. If the device that turned off...

a. Turns back on, press [OK] to lock in this code. The power / mode buttons will blink 3-times and go

out.

b. Does not turn back on, press [CH -] one step at a time until that device turns back on. Each time you

press the [CH -] button, the power / mode buttons will illuminate once

in reverse fast-rotation (AUDIO

Æ DVD Æ VCR Æ TV Æ CBL).

Once you have found a code that turns the device on / off, press [OK] to lock in this code. The power / mode buttons will blink 3-times and go out.

5. Repeat steps 2 to 4 above for each of the remaining electronic devices you wish to program the remote to operate.

6. Programming Your TV / VCR Combination

1. First

, turn on your TV / VCR combination device and install a VHS tape.

- 4 -

Synergy.doc

2. Next

, program your remote to operate the TV functions.

Using the Code Entry Programming method described in Section 5, find a TV Setup Code

that operates the

TV functions (Power, Vol +/-, Mute) of your TV / VCR combination.

3. Last

, program your remote to operate the VCR functions.

Using the Code Entry Programming method described in Section 5, enter, lock and test each 3-digit VCR

Setup Code for your brand until a code is found that operates the transport functions (Play, Stop, Rew, Pause, Rec) functions of your TV / VCR combination.

7. Programming Your TV / DVD or TV / VCR / DVD Combination

1. First

, turn on your TV / DVD combination device and install a DVD.

2. Next

, program your remote to operate the TV functions.

Using the Code Entry Programming method described in Section 5, find a TV Setup Code

that operates the

TV functions (Power, Vol S/T, Mute, Ch S/T, 0-9) of your TV / DVD unit.

3. Last

, program your remote to operate the DVD functions.

Using the Code Entry Programming method described in Section 5, enter, lock and test each 3-digit DVD

Setup Code for your brand until a code is found that operates the transport functions (PLAY, STOP, REW, FWD, PAUSE, REC) of your TV / DVD unit.

Before you can test for the correct DVD setup code, you must first press the [MODE] button, then [DVD] button to put the remote in its DVD mode.

4. If you have a TV / VCR / DVD

combination unit, you would then program your remote to operate the VCR

functions.

Using the Code Entry Programming method described in Section 5, enter, lock and test each 3-digit VCR

Setup Code for your brand until a code is found that operates the VCR transport functions (PLAY, STOP, REW, FWD, PAUSE, REC) of your TV / DVD / VCR unit.

Before you can test for the correct VCR setup code, you must first press the [MODE] button, then [VCR]

button first to put the remote in its VCR mode.

14. Additional Programming Information, Troubleshooting, Terms

Additional Programming Information

1. The power / mode buttons will illuminate in slow-rotation (i.e. CBL Æ TV Æ VCR Æ DVD Æ AUDIO Æ CBL…) while the remote is in a programming mode. In the absence of a keypress entry, the power / mode buttons will stop illuminating after 45 seconds and the remote will exit the programming mode.

2. When programming the remote control using the [CH +] or [CH -] buttons (Power function) in the Point and Press® Programming method, you may find a code that turns a device off but not back on. If this happens…

a. The correct code has not been found as you may have a code that operates some but not all of the functions of your device. Continue pressing [CH +] until your device turn on.

b. You may have gone past the correct matching code. Try pressing [CH -] one press at a time until you find a code that turns your device back on.

3. When using the Point and Press® Programming method, you can also program your remote using buttons other than the [CH +] or [CH -] as described in Section 5 as follows:

a. [VOL +] – to “go forward” through the codes using the “VOL +” function on your devices. b. [VOL -] – to “go back” through the codes using the “VOL -“ function on your devices.

Note: When you find the correct code, the volume of the device being programmed will increase or decrease.

c. [S] - to “go forward” through the codes using the “CH +” function on your devices. d. [T] - to “go back” through the codes using the “CH –“ function on your devices.

Note: When you find the correct code, the channel of the device being programmed will increase or decrease.

e. [XX] - to “go forward” through the codes using the “Fast Forward” function on your devices. f. [WW] - to “go back” through the codes using the “Rewind” function on your devices.

- 13 -

Synergy.doc

Note: When you find the correct code, the fast-forward or rewind function of the device being programmed

will be performed. To simplify programming using these buttons, insert a VHS tape or DVD in the device being programmed.

You can also program your remote using the other available functions as follows:

a. Press [OK], then [MUTE] together

until the power / mode buttons illuminate in slow-rotation (i.e. CBL

Æ TV Æ VCR Æ DVD Æ AUDIO Æ CBL…).

b. In this order, carefully press [0], [0], [0], [CH+] and [VOL+]. The power / mode buttons illuminate in slow-

rotation (i.e. CBL Æ TV Æ VCR Æ DVD Æ AUDIO Æ CBL…).

c. You can now program your remote using the [CH+], [CH -], [VOL+], [VOL -], [▲], [T], [FFWD], [REW], [PLAY], [STOP], [REC], [PAUSE], [LAST], [FAV], [0] - [9] buttons. When you find the correct code, the function associated with the selected button will be performed.

4. Your remote is equipped with a Point and Press® Programming label on the back of its case. This will help

you quickly program the remote without using codes.

Troubleshooting / Tips

1. If the same button is pressed and held for 45-seconds, your remote control will turn itself off automatically.

This extends the battery life should the remote become lodged under or between heavy objects, for example

sofa cushions.

2. If you have a TV that’s operated by remote control, it is recommended that you plug it directly into a wall

outlet instead of the cable set-top terminal.

3. If you have any questions concerning the brand, model or operation of your cable set-top terminal, contact

your cable operator.
