Introduction

Thank you for buying this Nexxtech 4-in-one Universal Remote. You can use your remote to replace a broken or lost remote or combine the functions of up to four remotes.

This remote control operates the common features of most (but not all) models and brands of IR (Infrared) controlled video equipment. This remote may support functions that are not available on your device. Some functions of your particular device (such as menu functions) may not be controlled by this remote. In such cases, use the original remote control for your device. The remote can also learn commands from your original remote. It has partial LED backlighting.

Please use this manual to become familiar with your remote, then install batteries and set up your remote for your particular device and brand.

Battery Installation

1. Push down on the tab on the back of the remote and lift off the cover.

2. Install 2 AAA alkaline batteries (not included) into the battery compartment as indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and -) marked inside.

3. Replace the cover.

When the remote’s range decreases or it does not operate properly, replace the batteries. You have 2 minutes to change the batteries without losing codes you have programmed. However, do not press any buttons until batteries are installed. If buttons are pressed without batteries in the remote, all codes will be lost.

Battery Saver

Your remote automatically times out if the buttons are pressed more than 30 seconds. This will save your batteries should your remote get stuck in a place (for example, between sofa cushions) where the buttons remain pressed.

TV Volume/Mute Punch-Through

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 SAT device without changing to TV mode.

VCR/DVD Punch-Through

This remote lets you Punch-through to the last VCR or DVD device used from any Mode programmed for TV or Cable. 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 TV or Cable programmed Mode.

Code Programming, cont.

TV/VCR and TV/DVD Combo units

For TV/VCR and TV/DVD combo units, you will need to set up two different buttons to control both parts of the combo unit. (See “Direct Code Entry.”) For example, set up a code under the TV button to control the TV part of the combo unit AND a separate code for the VCR or DVD under any other button you choose.

Code Programming

The P (Program) button is used to program the remote. You can program the remote using the code for your brand of device from the code list, or search through the library of codes until you find a code that works for your device. You can store any kind of code under any mode (except TV). For example, you can store a VCR code under the SAT button, or a DVD code under the VCR button, etc. However, you can only store TV codes under the TV button.

Direct Code Entry

1. Press and hold the P (Program) button until the red indicator stays on. Release the P button.

2. Press and release the desired mode button (TV, VCR, etc.). The red indicator blinks, then stays lit.

3. Enter the 3 digit code from the code list. Note: The red indicator turns off after a valid code entry and flashes for an invalid code.

4. With your device on, press Channel Up. If the device responds, no further setup is required. Note: If some buttons on your device do not operate, try one of the other codes for your brand.

Programming with Code Search

If your product does not respond after you have tried all the codes for your brand, or if your brand is not listed, try searching for your code by following these steps.

1. Manually turn on the device (TV, VCR, etc.) to be controlled.

2. Press and hold the P (Program) button until the red indicator stays on. Release the P button.

3. Press and release the desired mode button (TV, VCR, etc.). The red indicator blinks, then stays lit.

4. Press the Channel Up button repeatedly (up to 300 times) until the device to be controlled changes channels. If you accidentally overshoot the desired code, press the Channel Down button to backtrack through the library until the device changes channels. Pressing Channel Up changes the direction to forward again.

5. Press and release the Enter button to set the code.

If the device does not have a Channel Up button, use Play (VCR/DVD) or Power instead. If you go all the way through the code library without finding the correct code the indicator blinks a few times then goes off.

The Code Search method above assumes that you want to store VCR codes under the VCR button, DVD codes under DVD, etc. If (for example) you want to store a SAT code under VCR, first press and hold the P (Program) button until the red indicator stays on. Release the P button. Then press and release VCR. Then enter any SAT code from the code list. Then proceed from step 4 for Code Search above.

Operation

1. Press and hold the P (Program) button until the red indicator stays lit. Release the P (Program) button.

2. Press and release the desired mode button (TV, VCR, etc.). The red indicator blinks, then stays lit.

3. Press and release the P (Program) button. The indicator light blinks off.

4. To find the first digit for the code stored under the mode key you pressed in step 2, press each numeric key from 0-9 in turn. When the indicator blinks off, the number you pressed is the first digit for the code you are searching for.

5. Repeat step 4 to find the second and third digits. (Indicator goes off when third digit is found).

Sleep Function

The Sleep button accesses the sleep function of your TV if it has that feature. If it doesn’t you can enable the remote to turn off your TV after a period of 1 to 99 minutes as shown below. The remote must be in TV mode to set a Sleep Timer. This feature works even if your TV does not have a sleep feature.

1. Press and release the TV mode button.

2. Press and hold the Sleep button until the LED remains lit (about 2-3 seconds).

3. Release the Sleep button.

4. Press and release the numeric buttons (01-99) for the time required. The LED will blink off to indicate button press acceptance.

5. TV Sleep Timer is set.

6. Leave the Remote pointing towards the TV with an unobstructed path.

To cancel the Sleep Timer, press and hold the Sleep button until the LED blinks, or press and release the Power button in TV mode.

1. Press the mode button for the desired device.

2. Aim the remote at the device.

3. Press POWER to turn on the device.

4. Press other buttons to operate the features of your device.
