Programming a Device

Your remote comes pre-programmed to operate SONY TVs, DVD players, VCRs, Audio Receivers and DIRECTV HD or HD with PVR

satellite receiver. To control other brands, follow these steps to program your remote.

Before proceeding, nd the codes for your

devices in “Manufacturers Codes.”

1. Turn on the device (for example, DVD player) and, if needed, load media (for example, a DVD).

2. On the remote, press a device key (TV, CBL/SAT, DVD, VCR or AUD).

3. Press and hold P until the LED blinks twice, then release.

4. Enter the rst ve-digit code for your

device. The LED blinks once as you enter

each digit. If the code is correct, the LED

blinks twice.

If the LED does not blink twice, repeat steps 2-4 and try entering the code again.

5. Aim the remote at the device and press Power (or PLAY, if the device does not have a Power key). The device should

turn off. If it does not, repeat steps 2-5,

trying each code for your brand until you

nd one that works. If you cannot nd

a code that works, perform the steps in “Searching for Your Code.”

6. Repeat steps 1 to 5 for each device you

want to program.

Programming Notes

If no key is pressed within 10 seconds, the

remote control exits the programming.

To program a TV/DVD, TV/VCR/DVD, or TV/ VCR Combo, use the TV, DVD, or VCR device key.

If you have a VCR/DVD combo, you may need

to set up both a VCR and DVD code.

You can assign any device key to work with

any available device. For example, if you want to use AUD to control a second TV, simply follow the same steps listed in “Programming a Device” using the codes listed in “Manufacturers Codes” for your TV.

Searching for a Code

If your device does not respond to the remote

after trying all codes listed for your brand or if your brand is not listed, try searching for your code.

Use the following device code digits to control

a specic device:

Code Digit Device

0 Cable / Satellite

1 TV

2 DVD, VCR, DVR/PVR

3 Audio, Misc Audio

1. Turn on your device and, if needed, load

media (for example, a DVD).

2. On the remote control, press a device key (TV, CBL/SAT, DVD, VCR or AUD) once; it blinks once. Then press and hold P until the LED blinks twice.

3. Enter 9 9 1. The LED blinks twice.

4. Press the code digit for your device. The device key blinks twice. Aim the remote control at the device and press Power once.

5. Press and release the CH+ key continuously, then stop when the device turns off.

The remote is sending IR codes from its extensive library to the selected device, starting with the most popular code

rst.

6. Press Power. The device should turn on, then press P to lock in the code.

If the device does not turn on during step 6, slowly press and release CH- to go back

through the codes, press and release P when the device turns on.

Checking the Codes

If you have set up the remote using the

procedure in “Searching for a Code,” you

may want to know which ve-digit code is

operating your equipment.

1. On the remote control, press a device key once (TV, CBL/SAT, DVD, VCR or AUD); it blinks once. Then press and hold P until the device key blinks twice.

2. Enter 9 9 0. The device key blinks twice.

3. To nd the rst digit of the code, press 1 once. Count the number of times the LED blinks and write down the number.

If the LED blinks once, the rst digit is 1,

if it blinks twice, the rst digit is 2, etc. If

a code digit is 0, the selected device key does not blink.

4. Repeat step 3 four more times for the remaining digits, pressing 2 to nd the second digit, 3 to nd the third digit, 4 to

nd the fourth digit, and 5 to nd the fth

digit. Write down the rest of the code and keep it in a safe place.

Volume Lock

Your remote comes preset with the volume locked to the TV mode. This conguration

allows you to control the volume of the TV while in the CBL/SAT, DVD or VCR modes.

However, you may change the Volume Lock

setting to Global Volume Lock to a different mode so that volume control is always controlled through your audio receiver. After

that, you can perform Individual Volume

Unlock on a selected device to set its volume control for independent operation.

Locking Volume Control to One Device

1. Press and hold P until the LED blinks twice, then release.

2. Enter 9 9 3. The LED blinks twice.

3. Press the device key for the device you

wish to control volume (for example, TV).

The LED blinks twice.

4. Now when you press VOL+, VOL-, or MUTE, the selected device (for example, TV) controls the volume regardless of the current mode.

Unlocking Volume Control for a Single Device

1. Press the device key for the device you wish to unlock (for example, TV).

2. Press and hold P until the LED blinks twice, then release.

3. Enter 9 9 3. The LED blinks twice.

4. Press VOL-. The LED blinks four times.

5. Repeat Steps 1-4 for any other devices that you want to have independent volume control.

Unlocking All Volume Controls

1. Press and hold P until the LED blinks twice, then release.

2. Enter 9 9 3 and then press VOL+. The LED blinks four times. You can now independently control volume for all programmed devices.

Learning

You can program any non-used key on your remote to learn a function that is unique to your home entertainment devices (for example, EJECT for a DVD).

If no key is pressed within 10 seconds, the remote control exits the programming.

Have your original remote controls handy before beginning.

Troubleshooting

Problem Solution

LED does not blink when you press a key.

LED blinks when you press a key, but device does not respond.

LED blinks one long blink.

Remote does not control devices or commands are not working properly.

CH+, CH-, and LAST

do not work for your RCA TV.

No volume on a second TV.

Channels do not change properly.

Replace batteries

with two (2) new AAA

alkaline batteries.

Make sure the remote

is aimed at your device and is not more than 15 feet away.

An entry error has

occurred (for example, wrong key). Try entry

sequence again.

Try all listed codes for

the device. Make sure

the device operates with an infrared remote control.

Due to RCA design from 1983 to 1987, only the original remote control operates these functions

See “Changing Volume Lock.”

If the original remote

control required you to press Enter or OK to change channels, press Enter or OK on this remote after entering the channel number.
