1. Turn on the Cable Converter or DBS Receiver.

2. On the DRC,press and hold CABLE (at least 6 seconds) until you see the programming mode start. Each of the mode key lights will turn off and on sequentially, starting with AUX on through TV,and the sequence will repeat twice. During this time, release CABLE and wait until it’s lit continuously.

3. Locate your Cable Converter or DBS brand in the SETUP CODES FOR

CABLE CONVERTERs or SETUP CODES FOR DBSs below. Brands are

listed in alphabetical order with the most popular codes listed first.

4. Enter the first four-digit code for your Cable Converter or DBS.If you perform this procedure correctly, the CABLE light will blink three times.

NOTE: If you enter an invalid code, the CABLE light will turn off. Repeat steps 2 through 4 with a valid code.

5. Aim the DRC at your Cable Converter or DBS Receiver and and press POWER once. Your Cable Converter or DBS receiver should turn off. If it does not respond,repeat steps 2-4, trying each code listed for your brand until you find the one that operates your Cable Converter or DBS Receiver.

SEARCHING FOR YOUR CODE

If your TV,VCR, Cable Converter or Auxiliary Component does not respond to the DRC after trying all of the codes listed for your brand, or if your brand is not listed at all,try searching for your code.

For example,after trying all of the codes for your TV, you still cannot get the DRC to operate your TV, then:

1. Turn on your TV.

2. On the DRC,press and hold TV (at least 6 seconds) until you see the programming mode start. Each of the mode key lights will turn off and on sequentially, starting with AUX on through TV, and the sequence will repeat twice. During this time, release TV and wait until it’s lit continuously.

3. Press the (UP) cursor key once to start the search mode.

NOTE: In the search mode, the DRC will send IR codes from its library to the selected component, starting with the most popular codes first. When the component responds to a subsequent key command (e.g.,POWER),the correct device code will be found.

4. Press POWER once. The TV key will light on and off,showing that an IR code has been sent.

5. If your television does not turn off, press the UP cursor key once again to call up the next IR code and press POWER once again.

6. If your television still does not turn off, repeat step 5 as many times as needed until your TV turns off.

7. When your television does turn off,a working code has been found.Press OK once to save the code and the TV key will blink three times, confirming the selection.

8. To search for the codes of your other components, repeat steps 1 through 7, but substitute the appropriate device key (i.e.,VCR, CABLE,or AUX) for the component you are searching for.

CHECKING THE CODES

If you have set up the DRC using the Searching For Your Code procedure, you may need to find out which four-digit code is operating your equipment.

Perform the following procedure after you have set up your components to find out which four-digit code is operating your equipment.

For example,to find out which code is operating your TV:
