INTRODUCTION
The RadioShack 8-in-One Remote powered by Kameleon™ is a
revolutionary universal remote control that uses Universal Electronics’
Kameleon Technology. It is designed to control up to eight home
entertainment devices,including TV, video, and audio components.
After installing four (4) new AAA alkaline batteries,you can immediately
use the remote to control an RCA TV,VCR, DVD Player, and Satellite
Receiver,a Motorola Cable Box,a Tivo PVR (DVR), and a Pioneer CD
Player and Audio Receiver. To control other brands,please perform the
instructions in Programming A Device on page 14.
HOW KAMELEON™ WORKS
The RadioShack 8-in-One Remote Powered By Kameleon provides the
versatility of an LCD remote control with the feel of a traditional push
button unit.The result is a stunning, bright display with engaging
animation and touch-sensitive graphics for the user.
The remote control includes convenient Menu Driven programming.
The displays are divided into two types of interactive screens: Device
Menus for normal remote control use, and Programming Menus for
feature setup. Acting like its namesake, Kameleon changes the Device
Menu for the device being selected. For example,selecting TV displays
a main menu that contains channel selection,volume control,and a
keypad. However, selecting a DVD player still displays a menu with
those same keys as the TV,but now navigation keys and transport controls are added for the DVD device.

8-IN-ONER
EMOTEPOWEREDBYKAMELEON
HOW KAMELEON™ WORKS (Continued)
Several devices have a second menu that can be accessed using
SCREEN (see Device Menu Screens, starting on page 45). For example,
TV has two menus: a main menu with extra feature keys for COM
MUTE, +100,ENTER, SLEEP,TV/VCR,and PIP functions, and a second
menu screen that adds navigation keys but removes the extra feature
keys.This way a user has the flexibility to use any menu screen that
works best for the selected device.
NOTE:Even though SCREEN is displayed in all modes,only TV, CD,and AUD
modes have a second menu screen.
Animated key graphics also provided enhanced operational feedback, so
the user can easily see what mode is active and when the commands are
communicating with a device.The end result of Kameleon technology is
a simple,elegant, and intelligent way of organizing a large number of
remote control keys for eight different devices.
INSTALLING BATTERIES
BATTERY USE AND SAFETY
• Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.
• Do not mix old and new batteries,different types of batteries (e.g.,
standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of
different capacities.
• If you do not plan to use the remote for an extended period,
remove the batteries. They can leak chemicals that can destroy
electronic parts.
WARNING: Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or
bury them.
ABOUT BATTERY LIFE
As with all battery-operated devices,battery life will vary depending
on use, including frequency and duration of key presses on the
Kameleon screen.Battery life may be extended by:
• Reducing the brightness level of the display screen (see Adju stin g
Brightness on page 13).
• Disabling the Kameleon “tilt on” feature (see Setting The Tilt Switch
on page 38).
• Disabling the Kameleon Finder feature (see Setting The Finder
Receiver on page 39).
INSTALLING BATTERIES IN THE REMOTE
Your remote requires four AAA batteries (not supplied) for power.

1. Push forward on the battery compartment cover (on the back of the
remote) and lift it off.
2. Slide the AAA batteries into the compartment as indicated by the
polarity symbols (+ and –) shown above.
3. Align the cover with the compartment opening and slide it back
into place.
4. If batteries are inserted correctly, the display will turn on and show all
keys.If a key is not pressed after 7 seconds,the display will turn off.
NOTE: The batteries will need replacement if one of the following conditions occurs:
1. The top IR segment flashes five times after pressing a key.
2. The Tilt Switch (if enabled, see page 38) no longer activates the remote and
only pressing a key turns on the display.
ABOUT THE FINDER TRANSMITTER
NOTE: If you do not plan to use the Finder Transmitter, store it away for future
use and skip this section.
Included in the package is a Finder Transmitter that you can use to
audibly locate a lost or misplaced RadioShack 8-in-One Remote.The
unit also comes with double-sided “hook and loop” tape for use in
mounting it on a TV cabinet side or other surface.
The Finder Transmitter requires a 9-volt battery for power. For best
performance and longest life,we recommend using a RadioShack
alkaline battery.

ABOUT THE FINDER TRANSMITTER (CONTINUED)
INSTALLING A BATTERY IN THE FINDER TRANSMITTER
1. Press down on the battery compartment cover (on the front of the
Finder Transmitter) and slide it off.
2. Locate the snap harness and connect the 9-volt battery to mating
terminals.Then insert the battery and harness into the compartment.
3. Align the cover with the compartment opening and slide it back
into place.
OPERATING THE FINDER TRANSMITTER
1. Point the Finder Transmitter in the general direction of the lost
RadioShack 8-in-One Remote.
2. Press and hold the Finder Transmitter’s button until the lost RadioShack
8-in-One Remote emits a chirping sound to help you find it.
NOTE: If the RadioShack 8-in-One Remote does not emit a chirping sound,
verify the Finder Receiver is enabled (see page 39) and the battery is fresh.
A QUICK LOOK AT THE CONTROLS
Use the illustration on the next page to locate controls and then study
the Key Functions to learn how they function.
NOTE: The illustration shows all remote control keys. In actual operation,only
active keys used by the selected device are displayed and non-active keys are
hidden. These controls work like the ones found on your original remote controls.
To find out what type of devices can be controlled by each device key
after programming,see the Device Table on page 12.
