1. Introduction

The PC Control Remote can be use as a Wireless Mouse Remote and as a Universal Remote Control.

To control a PC the PC Control remote works with the wireless USB receiver CM21A (included in your PC Control kit).

The PC Control Remote is designed to control up to 6 devices (TV, VCR, DVD, SAT, PC and Home Automation Modules or any other device under AUX mode key). The PC Control Remote contains a library of codes that are pre-programmed into the remote control. This library covers nearly all the audio video products on the market today.

2. Put in the batteries (always use NEW AAA alkaline batteries).

1.Open the cover on the back of the PC Control Remote.

2.Insert 4 AAA alkaline batteries, verify that they are placed correctly with the + on the battery in the same position as marked inside the battery compartment.

3) PC operation

The PC remote works with the wireless USB receiver CM21A. The remote sends wireless RF signals to the CM21A receiver which is connected to your PC's USB port.

The enclosed CD contains a special version of the popular ShowShifter software. You can use ShowShifter to control your PC’s MultiMedia features. ShowShifter uses special fonts and big buttons to let you read the information from your PC screen from a distance.

4.2. Programming the TV, VCR , DVD, SAT and AUX modes

You can program the TV, VCR , DVD, SAT and AUX modes in three different ways.

1.When your equipment is one of the following six brands (Philips, Sony, Thomson, Saba, Grundig, Nokia) you can use the Brand Search method. Use method A in this case.

2.Are you using another brand of equipment ? If so, find your brand in the code book, and use method B to program your PC Control.

3.If the above two methods are not working, you can use method C and search for

the codes manually or automatically.

Note: you can dedicate any appliance (TV, DVD, SAT...) to the VCR, DVD, SAT,or AUX keys.

Method A: Programming using the Brand Search method

If your brand is listed hereafter, you have the possibility to use the brand search method (faster than the "manual" and the "automatic code search").

1.Turn on the device you want to control.

2.Press and hold SETUP (4) until the LED indicator (2) lights steadily. Release SETUP button.

3.Press the mode button (3) that matches the equipment you wish to control. The LED

(2) blinks once.

4.Enter the code corresponding to your brand, point the PC Control Remote in the direction of your equipment, press Channel+ (9) once only. Continue to point the PC Control Remote at your equipment until the equipment changes channel (the remote control sends an IR signal every second. Please wait until your equipment reacts). When your equipment does react, press on the key --/- (14) to confirm. If you accidentally miss the code, you can stop the autosearch by pressing Channel- (9) and by repeatedly pressing this key return to the right code. Press --/- (14) to confirm.

Method B: Programming using the 3 Digit Code Tables

1.Make sure your equipment is switched on (for example TV).

2.Press and hold the SETUP (4) key until the LED indicator lights continuously. Release the SETUP key.

3.Press and release the mode key (3) of the device you want to control (for example TV).

4.Enter the 3 digit code from the Code Book by using the key pad (11). The LED (2) turns off after the last digit is entered. If you entered a wrong code the LED blinks for 3 seconds and then goes off. You have to repeat from step 2.

5.Point the remote in the direction of your TV and press the POWER button (1). Your device should turn off. Check other functions (for example for a VCR FF or REW, etc.). If certain functions are not responding, this indicates that the entered code is not the correct one. In that case repeat the above procedure with the next corresponding code of your brand.

6.Repeat this procedure from step 1 for the other equipment you want to control (VCR, DVD, SAT).

10

MARMITEK

If your equipment (TV, SAT etc....) does not respond, try the other codes for your brand. If it still doesn’t respond, try the manual or automatic code search method

Method C: Manual or automatic code search

When searching an unknown code, you can step through the library manually or automatically. When your equipment responds, you can stop the searching process and store the code you found.

Note: as you can dedicate any appliance (TV, DVD, SAT...) to the VCR, DVD, SAT or AUX keys, you first need to enter any 3 digit code for the kind of appliance you wish to control (found in the code book), i.e.: If you want to program a SAT under the AUX key, enter ANY SAT code found in the code book and then follow the steps below.

Manual code search

1.Make sure your equipment is switched on.

2.Press and hold SETUP (4) until the LED indicator lights steadily. Release SETUP

3.Press the mode key (3) that matches the equipment you want to control (for example TV).

4.Press Channel+ (9) repeatedly until the channel changes. If you step past the correct code use Channel- (9) to go back to the right code.

5.When the equipment you want to control reacts press --/- (14) to confirm the code. That’s all.

Note: If your equipment doesn't have Channel+ you can use PLAY (VCR or DVD) (22) or POWER (1) key. The search starts after the last registered code. If that was 030, the search starts at 031 until the last possible code and then goes from 000 to 029.

Note: if certain functions of your equipment can’t be controlled you will have to find a different code for your brand.

Automatic code search

1.Turn on the device you want to control.

2.Press and hold SETUP (4) until the LED indicator (2) lights steadily. Release SETUP button.

3.Press the mode button (3) that matches the equipment you wish to control. The LED

(2)blinks once.

4.Press Channel+ (9) once. After a few seconds the remote starts stepping through the code library (fast search, 1 code per second). When the device responds, you can press Channel+ (9) to switch to slow search (1 code per 3 seconds). You can step back by pressing Channel- (9) (you can step forward by pressing Channel+ (9) in case you went too far back).

5.As soon as the device responds again, press the --/- key (14) to store the code you found.

4.3. Identifying codes found

1.Press and hold SETUP (4) until the LED indicator (2) lights steadily. Release SETUP.

2.Press the mode key (3) for the equipment you want to identify (TV, VCR, DVD, SAT or AUX). The LED blinks once.

5.Remote volume default is now set.

6.If the PC Control remote was previously controlling the television volume in SAT mode, it will now control the volume of the satellite decoder. If it was previously controlling the volume of the satellite decoder, it will now control the volume of the television.

5. Controlling home automation modules

The PC Control remote allows you to control all electric appliances you have in your house. In addition to transmitting infrared signals, which controls your TV, VCR, SAT, DVD and AUX, your remote is equipped with a radio transmitter sending Marmitek X10 signals, which will enable you to control lamps and electric appliances from a distance.

Here are some examples that you can do with your PC Control remote using home automation mode:

Switch on/off, dim lights while you watch TV.

Switch on the lights at night to frighten intruders when you detect something suspicious.

Switch on your electric blanket before the film ends to have it warm when you go to sleep.

For controlling your lamps or appliances, you will need additional home automation modules. The modules are simply plugged into AC outlets with no additional wiring required. Visit www.marmitek.com for more information.

To switch on/ off an appliance plugged into an home automation module: Press the key (3), then press the unit code of the home automation module on the key pad (11) and then press CHAN+ / - (9).

To dim/bright a light plugged into a home automation module: press its unit code on the key pad (11) and then press VOL+ / - (10).

To turn ON all the home automation Lamp modules: Press the Power key (1). To turn Off all the home automation modules (Lamp and appliance): press the Mute key (12).

5.1. Changing the home automation House Code

The preset house code is A and in the majority of cases it is not necessary to change this setting except if there is interference from neighbouring Marmitek X10 systems. In that case:

1.Press and hold SETUP (4) until the LED lights continuously.

12

MARMITEK

2.Release the SETUP (4) button.

3.Use the digit keys to enter the number equivalent to the chosen home code (1=A, 2=B, ... 16=P).

4.Press the --/- (14) to confirm your command. The LED will turn off.

Note : The code you have chosen has to be the same as the one selected on the Transceiver module TM13 or the security console, with which you use your remote.

5.2. Programming the Home Automation IR/RF mode

Your PC remote control can control your electric appliances using infrared signals (via an infrared mini-controller IR7243) or RF signals (via a transceiver module TM13). The key is set to RF mode by factory setting.

To program the (AUX) key to send an Infrared signal, proceed as follow

Press and hold SETUP (4) until the LED indicator (2) lights steadily. Release SETUP. Press and release the (AUX) key

Enter the 3 digit code 821.

The LED (2) turns off after the last digit is entered. If you entered a wrong code the LED blinks for 3 seconds and then goes off.

To program the (AUX) key to send radio signals, proceed as follow

Press and hold SETUP (4) until the LED indicator (2) lights steadily. Release SETUP. Press and release the (AUX) key

Enter the 3 digit code 820.

The LED (2) turns off after the last digit is entered. If you entered a wrong code the LED blinks for 3 seconds and then goes off.

6. Troubleshooting

A/V mode

The remote doesn’t work or loses codes entered

Confirm with your original remote that the equipment works correctly.

Make sure that you have pressed the corresponding mode key of the equipment or device that you want to control.

If the listed code does not work, try the AUTOSEARCH method or enter the next code of that brand.

1. Einführung

Die PC-Fernbedienung kann als drahtlose Maus und als allgemeine Fernbedienung verwendet werden.

Für die Bedienung eines PCs arbeitet die PC-Fernbedienung mit dem drahtlosen USBEmpfänger CM21A (in Ihrem PC-Fernbedienungsset enthalten).

Die PC-Fernbedienung wurde konstruiert um bis zu 6 Geräte (TV, Videorecorder, DVD, SAT, PC und Haustechnikmodule oder jedes andere Gerät mit AUX-Modusschlüssel) zu steuern. Die PC-Fernbedienung enthält eine Codebibliothek, mit der die Fernbedienung vorprogrammiert wurde. Diese Bibliothek deckt nahezu alle Audio-/Video-Produkte des aktuellen Marktes ab.

2. Einlegen der Batterien (immer NEUE AAA Alkalibatterien verwenden)

1.Öffnen Sie die Abdeckung auf der Rückseite der PC-Fernbedienung.

2.Legen Sie 4 AAA Alkalibatterien ein und prüfen Sie, ob sie mit dem Pluspol der Batterie in derselben Position wie innen im Batteriefach angegeben, richtig eingelegt wurden.

3.PC Control Betrieb

Die PC-Fernbedienung arbeitet mit dem schnurlosen USB-Empfänger CM21A. Die Fernbedienung sendet schnurlose Funkfrequenzsignale zum CM21A-Empfänger, der mit dem USB-Anschluss des Computers verbunden ist.

Die beiliegende CD enthält eine besondere Version der populären ShowShifter-Software. Sie können ShowShifter zur Steuerung der Multimediafunktionen Ihres Computers verwenden. Damit Sie die Informationen auf dem Bildschirm Ihres Computers aus einiger Entfernung lesen können, verwendet ShowShifter spezielle Schriften und große Schaltflächen. Sie können die Informationen sogar auf dem Bildschirm Ihres Fernsehers anzeigen (dafür benötigt Ihr Computer einen TV-Anschluss).

TIPP: Wissen Sie, dass Sie Ihren Computer schnurlos an Ihren Fernseher anschließen können, sogar von einem anderen Zimmer aus? Mit dem auf Wunsch erhältlichen "PC to TV"-Sender von Marmitek (REF: 09516) können Sie es. Für mehr Informationen besuchen Sie www.marmitek.com.

3.1. Softwareund CM21A-Installation

1.Deaktivieren oder schalten Sie Ihre Antivirus-Software aus, bevor Sie die Software installieren, da einige Antivirus-Programme die Installation behindern. Vergessen Sie nicht, nach der Installation Ihr Antivirus-Programm wieder einzuschalten.

2.Installieren Sie DirectX9.0 von der CD-Rom oder laden Sie es von der Microsoft Webseite herunter: www.microsoft.com/directx/homeuser/downloads/default.asp

Wenn auf Ihrem Computer Windows XP läuft, brauchen Sie DirectX nicht zu

installieren, da es bereits installiert wurde.

3.Wenn Sie komprimierte Videodateien und MP3-Dateien abspielen wollen, dann installieren Sie den Windows Media Player 9 von der CD-Rom oder laden Sie ihn von der Microsoft Webseite herunter: www.microsoft.com/windows/mediaplayer/en/default.asp

4.Starten Sie das ShowShifter-Installationsprogramm von der CD. Wenn die CD nicht automatisch startet, so starten Sie ShowShifter-Setup-1.55.2177.exe manuell.

5.Befolgen Sie während der Installation die Anweisungen auf dem Bildschirm. Sie werden über verfügbare ShowShifter-Upgrades informiert werden. Sie brauchen jetzt kein Upgrade auszuführen.

6.Die Installation der Software wird auch das "X10 Hardware (TM) Setup"-Programm starten, das verschiedene X10-Treiber in Ihr Betriebssystem (einschließlich dem CM21A-Treiber) installiert. Befolgen Sie die Anweisungen auf dem Bildschirm. Am geeigneten Zeitpunkt während der Installation werden Sie gebeten, den CM21AStecker (nutzt denselben Treiber wie das CM19A USB Firecracker - Transceiver) in den USB-Anschluss Ihres Computers zu stecken und auf "OK" zu klicken. Nachdem Sie dies getan haben, wird Windows Ihnen mitteilen, dass es neue Hardware gefunden hat und wird den CM21A-Treiber automatisch installieren.
