Power-On Default

The remote powers on in TV mode.

Code Setup

Please refer to “Code Search” on p. 8 for more information using the code search feature to learn how to search through the library of codes for your products.

Note: You can store any kind of code under any mode (except TV). You can store a VCR code under the CBL button, or a DVD code under the VCR button, etc. However, you can only store TV codes under the TV button.

Direct Code Entry

Code Search by Brand

1. Press and hold SETUP until the indicator remains on, then release SETUP.

2. Repeatedly press SELECT to select the desired mode (TV, VCR, etc.), unless the desired mode is already selected.

3. Enter the 4-digit code from the code tables (on separate sheet). Note: After a valid code entry, the indicator turns off. For an invalid code, the indicator flashes.

4. Press CHANNEL UP. If the device responds, no further programming is required. Note: If some buttons do not operate your equipment, try one of the other codes for your brand.

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. Turn on the device (TV, VCR, etc.) to be controlled.

2. Press and hold SETUP until the indicator remains on, then release SETUP.

3. Repeatedly press SELECT to select the desired mode (TV, VCR, etc.), unless the desired mode is already selected.

4. Press CHANNEL UP repeatedly (up to 300 times) until the device to be controlled changes channels. The indicator blinks off with each button press.

5. Press and release MUTE to install the code.

Most users store VCR codes under VCR. Cable codes appear under CBL (Cable), etc.

If you want to store a VCR code under CBL, first follow the procedure for Direct Code Entry and select CBL in Step 2 of Direct Code Entry. Then enter any VCR code in Step 3 of Direct Code Entry. Then follow the steps above for Code Search.

Note: If the device does not have a CHANNEL UP button, use PLAY (VCR only) or POWER instead. Code search begins from the currently stored 4-digit number under that mode.

Lets you search for a code for a specific Brand within the Code Library for a particular manufacturer.

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

2. Press and hold SETUP until the indicator remains on, then release SETUP.

3. Repeatedly press SELECT to select the desired mode (TV, VCR, etc.), unless the desired mode is already selected.

4. Press and release the numeric button (0-9) corresponding to desired Manufacturer (see table on code list sheet). The green indicator blinks off once. Note, pressing “0” performs a full library search same as normal Code Search Method on previous page.

5. Press the CHANNEL UP button ((or POWER or PLAY (VCR only)) repeatedly until the device to be controlled changes channel. The green indicator blinks off with each button press. If you accidentally overshoot the code required, press the CHANNEL DOWN button to backtrack through the library until the device changes channel. Pressing CHANNEL UP changes direction to forward again.

6. Press and release MUTE to install the code.

Brand Search Method entry is now complete. Note: When all codes under a Brand have been searched the indicator flashes rapidly for 3 seconds.

Code Identification Feature

The Code Identification Feature lets you identify the 4digit library code stored under your device key.

If you want to find what 4-digit code is stored under any device mode, follow these steps.

1. Press and hold SETUP until the indicator remains on, then release SETUP.

2. Repeatedly press SELECT to select the desired mode (TV, VCR, etc.), unless the desired mode is already selected.

3. Press and release SETUP. The indicator blinks.

4. To find the first digit for the code stored under the mode selected in Step 2, press each number button (0-9). When the indicator blinks off, the number you pressed is the first code digit you are searching for.

5. To find the second digit, repeat Step 4. When the indicator blinks off, this is the second digit.

6. Repeat Step 4 to find the third and fourth digits.

Setting Favorites

The Favorites feature is what really sets this remote apart from other remotes. It lets you go to your favorite channel(s) by simply pressing a button next to a sticker (or label) that represents that favorite channel.

1. Press and hold SETUP until the indicator remains on, then release SETUP.

2. Repeatedly press SELECT to select the desired mode (TV, VCR, etc.), unless the desired device is already selected. This sets the device that this favorite button controls.

3. Press one of the 10 FAVORITE buttons to set up a favorite channel. Let’s say we select the top righthand FAVORITE button.

4. Enter the channel number for this favorite channel.

Note: You can use up to 5 buttons, including 0 through 9, OK, and - to enter your favorite channel: 550, 472Enter, 162OK, 5-7, etc., are examples.

5. Press SETUP when you’ve finished entering the channel.

Setting Favorites (cont.)

FAVORITE

buttons

FAVORITE

icons

After setting up your favorite, do the following.

6. Attach the sticker that represent the favorite channel you set up above to the location next to that FAVORITE button. (In the example on p. 11, we’ve used a CNN sticker for the top right-hand FAVORITE button.)

Follow Steps 1 through 6 to set up more favorites, each time selecting a different FAVORITE button in Step 3, and entering a different channel number in Step 4. Then place the appropriate sticker next to the FAVORITE button, as in Step 6.

To go to your favorite channel, simply press the FAVORITE button next to the sticker that represents the icon for that channel.

Note: If you can’t find a sticker for one of your favorites, go to www.wikipedia.org to find labels for your favorites. Do a search by using the key words television logos. Find the logo you need. Right-click the logo and save this logo somewhere on your computer. Print the logo. If the logo needs adjustment, you can use Microsoft Paint, etc. Cut out the logo and paste it next to your FAVORITE button.

Adjusting the Delay Between Digits

You might need to adjust the time between digits sent for a favorite channel. If the delay is too long you might point the remote away from your device before all the digits have been sent. If the delay is too short your device might not respond.

1. Press and hold SETUP until the indicator remains on, then release SETUP.

2. Press and release PLAY. The indicator blinks, then stays on.

3. Press and release a number from 0 to 9. 0 is no delay and 9 is the longest delay.

Setup

Setup (cont.)

Programming Combo Device Codes

Some combo (combination) devices (TV/VCR, TV/DVD, DVD/VCR, etc.) require you to set up 2 different modes to control both parts of the combo.

For example, if you have a TV/DVD combo, you might need to set up one code under the TV mode to control the TV and a separate code (under other modes) to control the DVD.

VCR/DVD/DVR Punch-Through Feature

This remote allows the 6 VCR buttons (PLAY, PAUSE, STOP, SCAN+, SCAN-, and REC) to “punch-through”

(transmit or hand-over) control from any mode programmed with TV or Cable codes to the last VCR, DVD, or DVR mode used.

For example, if you have 2 DVD, VCR, or DVR devices programmed into this remote, the last device you used controls the 6 VCR buttons.

Note: This feature will not operate if the programmed TV, SAT or Cable code has its own VCR transport button control e.g. a TV Combo, SAT/PVR, etc.

Setting ALL Volume/Mute Controls to Any Mode

You can set all modes to “punch-through” to any mode for Volume/Mute control without needing to change to that mode by doing the following.

1. Press and hold SETUP until the indicator remains on, then release SETUP.

2. Press and hold MUTE until the indicator blinks off, then release the button.

3. Press and release SELECT to select the desired mode (TV, VCR, etc.) for Volume/Mute control; the indicator blinks, then stays on.

4. Press and release MUTE; the indicator turns off. Note: The indicator will blink rapidly for 3 seconds if the mode you have selected does not have Volume/ Mute control.

5. All other modes will now “punch-through” to your chosen mode for Volume/Mute control.

Setting Any Mode to Use its Own Volume/ Mute Control

You can set any mode to use only its own Volume/Mute control.

Volume/Mute Control and Punch-Through Feature

Your remote allows you to select which device mode controls VOLUME and MUTE.

This remote is initially set for all device modes to use their own Volume/Mute control if present.

If the programmed code does not have Volume/Mute operation, then VOLUME and MUTE will “punchthrough” (hand-over) control to the TV-mode device without you needing to change to TV mode. Note: Any

mode chosen for Volume/Mute control must have its own Volume/Mute function or else VOLUME and MUTE

will not function.

Note: If your chosen mode does not have Volume/Mute functions, then this remote’s VOLUME and MUTE will not operate.

1. Press and hold SETUP until the indicator remains on, then release SETUP.

2. Press and hold MUTE until the indicator blinks off, then release the button.

3. Press and release SELECT to select the desired mode (TV, VCR, etc.); the indicator blinks, then stays on.

4. Press and release VOLUME- (down); the indicator blinks, then stays on.

5. Press and release MUTE; the indicator turns off.

6. All modes will now “punch-through” to the respective modes you have chosen for Volume/ Mute control.

Code Learning

Tips On Learning (cont.)

Your remote is equipped with an easy “learning” feature that lets it “learn” features (such as RANDOM PLAY from your original CD remote).

Tips On Learning

You can only learn one device type under any one mode button e.g. only learn TV codes under the TV mode, VCR codes under the VCR mode, etc. If you are trying to learn from a “universal” type original remote, it might have more than one code type stored under a mode. Try learning from another remote to see if there’s a problem with the type or band of remote you are trying to learn from.

Keep the following in mind about learning codes.

• Some functions from some types of remotes might

not be able to be learned.

• No functions may be learned under the LEARN, SETUP, and SELECT keys.

• Use fresh batteries for both your new remote and

your original remote.

• Keep at least 3 feet away from incandescent or lowenergy lights when learning.

• Place the original remote end-to-end with your new remote so the IR transmitter (at the top) on your

original remote points at the IR learning device on the bottom of your new remote.

• Keep the distance between the two remotes to approximately 1 inch.

• Line up the remotes and then press the key you want to learn. To get the correct range, press the key on the remote you are learning. Do not change the distance between the two remotes until you have learned all the required keys.

• When Learning, do not release the button being

Learned until the indicator has blinked off for half a second. However, some keys might be learned multiple times if you do this. If this happens, just “tap” the key you want to learn rather than press and hold it. For example, keys that you normally hold down for awhile (like volume up or down) will likely require a long press when learning.

• Keys that you normally give a quick press (like the

numbers, and channel up/down) will likely require a quick press when learning. If after learning, say, the channel-up key, you find that it changes multiple channels when pressed once, try relearning it with a short key press.

• If learning the first or second keys results in

continuous errors, then try the following:

1. Check that the IR transmitters/sensors are correctly aligned between the two remotes (see next page).

2. Adjust the distance between the two remotes to be closer (1/2 an inch) or further away (2 inches) from each other.

3. Try learning the original remote keys again.

4. If problems reoccur with the same button, check the original remote key being learned – does it transmit? Does it operate the target device?

5. Clear all learned settings and try learning again.

If problems reoccur with the same button, check the original remote button being learned to see if there is transmission.

Try learning that button under a different cleared mode, if necessary.

If the remote learns, then this situation is likely a different code type from others and cannot be learned under the same mode.

IR Transmitter Finder

Learning Commands

This feature assists you in identifying where your original remote’s infrared (IR) transmitter is located.

This feature is particularly useful if your original remote’s IR transmitter is hidden behind a lens.

1. Point your remotes so that the top of your existing remote faces the bottom of your new remote and the remotes are about 1 inch apart (see picure on next page).

2. Press and hold SETUP until the indicator remains on, then release SETUP.

3. Repeatedly press and release SELECT to select the desired mode (TV, VCR, etc.).

4. Press and release LEARN; the indicator blinks, then stays on.

5. Press and hold any original remote button and move the original remote to the left and right and/or up and down in front of the IR transmitter.

Note1: The indicator will remain on if there is not any IR from the original remote. The indicator will blink on and off more rapidly when the IR transmitters are lining up. The point where the indicator blinks most rapidly is where the two IR transmitters are aligned.

Note2: Some original remotes only transmit IR on the initial button press and then stop transmitting IR. Quickly press and release the original remote button repeatedly during this procedure in such cases.

The learning feature lets your remote “learn” functions from your original remote control.

1. Press and hold SETUP until the indicator remains on, then release SETUP.

2. Repeatedly press and release SELECT to select the desired mode (TV, VCR, etc.).

3. Press and release LEARN; the indicator blinks, then stays on.

4. Press and release the button that you want to learn (for instance, POWER).

5. Point your original remote at the bottom of your new remote until they are about 1 inch apart.

6. Press and hold the original remote button (for instance, Power) until the indicator blinks once, then stays on. If there is a learning problem, the indicator blinks for 3 seconds and stays on. If this happens, repeat Steps 4 to 6.

7. Repeat Steps 4-6 for other buttons you want your remote to learn.

8. Press and release SETUP when all desired remote commands are learned. Code learning is now complete.

Line up your remotes (that you’re learning from) in front of the learning remote on a hard surface approx. 1-inch apart.
