About Your KAMELEON 3
Easy to use unique “EL” display
By choosing the ONE FOR ALL KAMELEON 3 universal remote control you have
opted for easy use. Your KAMELEON 3 features a unique, user-friendly backlit
display, which ensures you have easy access to all the keys you need, whilst
hiding those you don’t. Made of the strictest quality, it will provide long-term
satisfaction. After replacing batteries, you will need to first press any key before
the screen will light up. From then on, the display will automatically illuminate
whenever the remote is picked up (touching screen and remote simultaneously).
It is also possible to change the activation-mode into activation by key press. To
set the ”EL” display to activation by key press, see page 3, section: ”EL” screen
activation setting. Also, this product comes with a build-in light sensor which
will increase the brightness in a bright environment and decrease the brightness
in a dark environment.
Controls up to 3 devices
Your KAMELEON 3 is designed to let you use one remote to operate three
devices (a television, video recorder, DVD player) designed to be operated by an
infrared signal. Your KAMELEON 3 comes with 2 IR (infra-red) wide range
transmitters for maximum range and is High Frequency capable up to 450 kHz.
Learning feature
The KAMELEON 3 comes equipped with the unique “learning feature”, which
means that you can copy almost any function (max. ± 30) from your original
(working) remote control onto your new KAMELEON 3 (See “Learning Feature”
on page 12). This may come in handy, when after having setup your KAMELEON
3 you find that some functions from your original remote are missing on your
KAMELEON 3 key pad.
Macros (sequence of commands)
Your KAMELEON 3 comes with an easy-to-use Macro feature, allowing you to
send several commands with the press of a single key (for example turning a few
devices on or off). Once you programmed a macro on a key, the sequence will
be performed in every mode.
Your KAMELEON 3 comes with 2 AA/LR6 alkaline batteries.
1. Push the battery door upwards and lift it up to remove it.
2. Match the batteries to the (+) and (–) marks inside the battery case, then
insert the batteries.
3. Replace the battery cover by pushing downwards and allowing it to click
back into position.
- After re-installing the batteries, the entire ”EL” display will be lit for a
duration of 6 seconds upon the first key press after which it will default to
the TV mode.
Low Voltage Indicator
As soon as the batteries run out of power the KAMELEON 3 will indicate this.
The IR indicator will flash 5 times whenever you press a key.
Please make sure to replace the batteries with 2 new AA/LR6 alkaline batteries.

The KAMELEON 3 comes with a complete library of pre-programmed codes.
After you have set up the KAMELEON 3 for your device, you may find that there
are one or more keys that you had on the original remote control, which do not
have a place on the KAMELEON 3 keypad. The KAMELEON 3 offers a special
Learning feature that allows you to copy almost any function from your original
remote control onto the keypad of the KAMELEON 3.
Before you start:
- Make sure your original remote is working correctly.
- Make sure neither your KAMELEON 3, nor your original remote control is
pointing at your device.
Learning (direct)
Example: To copy the “mono/stereo” function from your original TV
remote control onto the ”16:9”-key of your KAMELEON 3.
1. Place the KAMELEON 3 and your original remote control on a flat
surface. Make sure the ends which you normally point at your device
are facing each other. Point the original remote to the front of the
KAMELEON 3 (see picture below). Keep the remotes at a distance of 2
to 5 cm (0.8 to 2 inches).
2Press and hold down the MAGIC key (for about
3 seconds) until the rabbit comes out of the hat.
3. Press 9 7 5. The IR Indicator will blink twice.
4. Press the device key (Example: TV key) on the KAMELEON 3
remote to select the mode to which you want to copy the
learned function.
5. Press the key (Example: ”16:9” key) on the KAMELEON 3
remote where you want to place the learned function. The IR
Indicator will blink three times and then the display will
switch off.
6. Press and hold the key that you want to copy (Example:
mono/stereo) on your original remote control. The display
switches back on and you will see two blinks to indicate
successful learning operation.
