About Your KAMELEON 4
Your ONE FOR ALL KAMELEON 4 package contains:
- Your KAMELEON 4 universal remote control.
- Your KAMELEON 4 manual.
Your KAMELEON 4 manual is divided into two parts:
- “Set-Up Instructions”.
- “Device Codes”.
You will need this manual to set up your new KAMELEON 4 so please
be sure to keep it.
Easy to use unique “EL” display
By choosing the ONE FOR ALL KAMELEON 4 universal remote control you have
opted for easy use. Your KAMELEON 4 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. When 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 or moved. It is also possible to change the
activation-mode into activation by keypress. To set the ”EL” display to activation
by keypress, see page 3, section: ”EL” screen activation setting.
Controls up to 4 devices
Your KAMELEON 4 is designed to let you use one remote to operate four devices
(a television, satellite receiver / cable box, video recorder, DVD player) designed
to be operated by an infrared signal. Your KAMELEON 4 comes with 2 IR (infrared) wide range transmitters for maximum range and is High Frequency capable
up to 450 kHz.
Learning feature
The KAMELEON 4 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 4 (See “Learning Feature”
on page 11). This comes in handy, when after having setup your KAMELEON 4
you may find some functions from your original remote missing on your
KAMELEON 4 key pad.
Macros (sequence of commands)
Your KAMELEON 4 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). You can use the MACRO key for this feature. Once you
programmed a macro on the MACRO key, the sequence will be performed in
every mode.
Batteries
Your KAMELEON 4 comes with 4 AAA/LR03 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 keypress after which it will default to
the TV mode.

The IR Indicator animates when IR is being “sent” or
“received”. The KAMELEON 4 animated IR Indicator will show
“outgoing IR” whenever a functional key is pressed. When
using the “Learning Procedure” the animated IR indicator will
show “incoming IR”. The IR Indicator will give feedback when
keys are pressed both during normal use and in programming
mode (the bottom part of the IR indicator will blink).
The TV, VCR, SAT/CBL and DVD keys select the device to be controlled. For example pressing the TV key allows the remote to
control the functions of your Television, after pressing VCR you
can operate your Video Recorder, after pressing the SAT/CBL
key you can operate your Satellite Receiver or Cable Converter
etc. (see page 8 for more details). After pressing a device
(mode) key on your KAMELEON 4 the applicable device icon
will light up, to show the currently activated mode. Pressing
the device key will allow you to return to the main screen (TV,
VCR, SAT/CBL modes).
( )
The POWER key controls the same function as on your original
remote. In shifted mode (accessed by pressing MAGIC shortly
and releasing it) the POWER key becomes the Sleeptimer
function (see page 17).
This product features an “EL” panel (Electro Luminescence
technology) which is motion activated. In order to save battery
life, the “EL” screen will stay illuminated for 10 seconds during
normal use. It is also possible to change the motion activationmode into activation by keypress. To change the activationmode, see below section: ”EL” screen activation setting. It is
also possible to increase or decrease the brightness on the
KAMELEON 4 “EL” panel (see page 5). One of the key features
of the KAMELEON 4 is the “EL” display, which changes to suit
the device you are controlling. The overview on page 4 will
show you all the possible screens and the functions that you
will obtain.
“EL” Screen activation setting
The KAMELEON 4 features an “EL” panel which is motion
activated or keypress activated depending on the current
setting.
To change the activation setting:
1. Press and hold the MAGIC key until the
rabbit comes out of the hat.
2. Press 9 8 9.
-> If the bottom part of the animated IR Indicator blinks
twice the “EL” panel will be motion activated.
-> If the bottom part of the animated IR Indicator blinks four
times the “EL” panel will be activated by keypress.
Simply perform these steps to lock the KAMELEON 4
to the activation setting that you prefer.
