XRC 200
UNIVERSAL
REMOTE
CONTROL
(Made in China)
GETTING STARTED
Congratulations! Your XRC 200 universal remote control brings new convenience to television viewing. By pressing a few keys, you can see what is on TV, select a program to watch, set up to record programs on your VCR, and much more.
The XRC 200 universal remote control has been designed to control most TV sets and VCRs on the market today as well as your cable device, eliminating the frustration of having to use several remote controls.
Before you start to program your remote control, please read the following important instructions.
The XRC 200 enables you to:
• Control multiple devices
such as a cable device, TV, and VCR.
• Control an auxiliary device
such as a second TV or VCR or a digital audio tuner.
• Control the volume
through your TV while in Cable mode. (Refer to Programming Volume Control later in this brochure.)
• Control services such as
Digital Music Express TM and Music Choice SM.
REPLACING THE
BATTERIES
Use two fresh 1.5 volt, AA batteries. To install or replace the batteries:
1. Slide the battery door open on the back of the remote control.
2. Remove the old batteries, and insert the new ones as indicated.
3. Slide the battery door closed until it snaps into place.
4. Point the remote control at your cable device, press CABLE, and then press POWER. The CABLE key lights.
If the key does not light, check the battery orientation, or replace the batteries as needed.
Page 2
If you replace the batteries within a few hours after removing the old batteries, you will not need to reprogram the remote control.
USING THE KEYBOARD
Use the mode keys to switch control to a device. The four mode keys (AUX, VCR, CABLE, or TV) light to indicate which device is being controlled.
For example, to change the VCR channel, press VCR and then press the desired channel number key(s). To control your cable device, press CABLE and then press a function key. The remote control will continue to control the same device until you press another mode key.
PROGRAMMING YOUR
XRC 200
You are now ready to program the remote control. Find the codes for your set top terminal, TV, VCR, and any auxiliary device in the Device Codes section at the end of this guide.
Please note the following:
• All codes are three-digit numbers. As you program for each mode, write down the correct codes in the spaces provided for future reference.
• For many devices, more than one code is listed. In these cases, start with the first code.
• If you do not press the next key within 10 seconds, the whole sequence will be erased and you will have to start over. This prevents you from accidentally reprogramming the remote control during regular viewing.
• After you program the remote control, check the device functions. If a primary function does not operate, you can try another device code listed in the Device Codes section for the manufacturer. If the device does
not respond, refer to Finding the Correct Device Code later in this guide.
PROGRAMMING FOR YOUR
CABLE DEVICE, TV, AND VCR
The XRC 200 is already programmed to control the General Instrument CFT2200 and DCT1000 set-top terminals.
To control another device, look for the list of manufacturers™ three­digit codes for the device type in the Device Codes section. Then perform the following steps:
1. On the remote control, press and hold the appropriate mode key until the four mode keys flash twice.
2. Enter the three-digit code.
3. The mode key should flash
twice. If it doesn’t start over at step 1.
4. Point the remote control at the device and press POWER. If the device turns on or off, you have finished programming.
If you have tried all the codes listed for the manufacturer and the device does not respond, refer to Finding the Correct Device Code later in this guide.
5. Write the codes below:
Set-top device code ___ ___ ___ TV device code ___ ___ ___ VCR device code ___ ___ ___
6. Note that in the TV and VCR modes, the PAUSE, PLAY, REW, REC AND FF keys control your VCR. To record a program, you must hold down REC and press PLAY. This prevents accidental recording.
PROGRAMMING FOR AN
AUXILIARY DEVICE
You can program the AUX mode to control an auxiliary device such as a second remote-controlled TV or VCR, a General Instrument satellite receiver, or a digital audio tuner.
1. Look up the device manufacturer in the Device Codes section and note the code.
2. Press and hold VCR, CABLE or TV key (depending on which device you will program the AUX button for) for approximately three seconds until the four mode keys flash twice.
3. Enter 992.
4. Press and hold down AUX until
the four mode indicators flash twice; if it doesn’t, press AUX as described above and try again.
5. Enter the three-digit code for your VCR, Converter Box or TV.
6. After you have entered the code, point the remote at your device and press POWER. If the device turns off, you have successfully programmed for that device.
If you have tried all the codes listed for the manufacturer and the device does not respond, refer to Finding the Correct Device Code later in this guide.
7. Write the device type and code below:
Device Type ______________ AUX device code ___ ___ ___
Page 3
PROGRAMMING VOLUME
CONTROL
You can program your XRC 200 to control the volume through the TV while in any other mode. The TV must permit remote volume control.
For example, you can control volume through the TV while in Cable mode. In VCR mode, the volume control is always set through the TV.
This procedure does not affect any device codes you set previously.
To control the volume through the TV while in Cable mode:
1. Press and hold mode key of the device in which volume is to be controlled until the four mode keys flash twice.
2. Enter 993.
FINDING THE CORRECT DEVICE
CODE
Manufacturers often put their brand name on devices made by others. If you have tried all of the manufacturers device codes listed in this guide but the device still does not respond, you can use the XRC 200 to find and identify the appropriate device code.
SCANNING FOR A DEVICE CODE
Perform the following steps to scan for a code that operates your device:
1. Turn on the device.
2. Press and hold a mode key until
the four mode keys flash twice.
3. Enter 991.
4. Repeatedly press POWER and
then the mode key until the device turns off. You may need to press Power – mode key a number of times. Be patient and go slow so you don’t miss the correct code.
5. When the device turns off, the remote is programmed with a code that controls the device.
6. Press SELECT to lock in the code. The mode key will flash twice to indicate that the code is accepted.
RECALLING A DEVICE CODE
Perform the following steps to read the code currently set for a device. This is useful for retrieving a device code that was set using the scanning method described previously.
1. Press any mode key until the four mode keys flash twice.
2. Press 990.
3. Press 1 and count the number
of times the mode key blinks. This number is the first digit of the device code. If the indicator does not blink after any step of this procedure, the digit is 0.
4. Next, press the 2 key. The mode key will blink again. Count the number of blinks to find the second digit of the code. Finally, press 3. The number of blinks is the third digit of the code.
