Chapter 1 - Introducing the SRC-3810/3815
Congratulations on your purchase of the SRC­3810/3815 Touch-Screen Remote Control. The SRC­3810/3815 is a digital universal remote control that is easy to use, enabling you to control all of your electronic devices equipped with an infrared (IR) remote or RF (SRC-3815) remote model with transmission IR-extender SEL-6000. The SRC-3810/3815 uses a Touch Screen panel and control buttons and is simple to use. Simply select a device and the appropriate screen appears. You can control up to sixteen devices, including VCRs, DVDs, TVs, and satellite dishes.
The SRC-3810/3815 is easy to set up. You can quickly configure each device in your household or office using the innovative “learning eye” feature. In addition, the advanced macro function enables you to initiate a chain of up to 60 commands with the touch of a single button.

Chapter 2 - Getting Started
This chapter provides you with the information to quickly get using the SRC-3810/3815.
Installing IR-extender
1. Plug in AC adapter into AC adapter jack on IR-extender and into AC wall outlet.
2. Set address code.
3. Position IR-extender so that it is aimed at equipment. Use IR blaster cable for equipment out of directional range.
Installing Batteries
The SRC-3810/3815 operates on four AAA Alkaline batteries (not included). Batteries must be inserted before you can operate the SRC-3810/3815.
1. Turn the remote over, push the tab in the direction of the arrow on the battery cover and slide the cover off.
2. Insert the batteries, matching the batteries to the (+) and (–) marks inside the battery case.
3. Snap the battery cover back into place.
Battery Indicator
A battery icon is displayed in the upper right-hand corner near the time display:

When the batteries are almost depleted, the battery low icon appears.
When the battery low icon appears, you are not allowed to enter setup mode.
Battery Tips and Precautions
Immediately replace the batteries when the battery low icon appears.
The SRC-3810/3815 will not lose programmed data when batteries are replaced, but will reset the time.
Always use fresh batteries. Alkaline batteries are recommended. Do not mix different types of batteries.
Be sure that the positive (+) and negative (–) polarities of the batteries match the diagram shown in the compartment.
Do not expose the batteries to excessive heat or flame.
Keep batteries out of the reach of children.
Weak batteries reduce the effective distance of the
unit.
To reduce danger of leakage and damage, remove used batteries when used longer than two years.

ADDR Setting RF Address ( SRC-3815)
Each device button (TV, VCR, DVD etc.) can be set to operate on either IR or RF frequencies.
To operate in the RF mode, the SRC-3815 transmits an RF frequency signal to the SEL-6000 IR-extender, which sends
14

an IR signal to the desired device. Both the device and the IR-extender must be set to the same RF address to operate properly. To set the RF address:
1. Press
or to select RF ADDR
2. Press Ok
3. Select either IR to operate in the IR mode or an RF address (0-9) for the IR-extender.
4. If an RF address is selected on the SRC-3815, set the IR­extender (SEL-6000) to the same RF address by adjusting the ADDRESS wheel on the rear panel as needed (0~9).

to scroll through the code menu options:
Pre-Code: use this method to automatically configure
all buttons on the SRC-3810/3815 for use with a specific manufacture model number. This feature is the fastest way to program the SRC-3810/3815 but requires that your device be located in the Pre-programmed Code List that was bundled with the SRC-3810/3815. Some newer or less-common devices may not be pre­programmed and must be learned using the Learning Function.
Learn: use this method to directly learn the proper
infrared signals from another remote control. This method is perfect for newer or less common devices or if a certain button still not does perform the desired function after using pre-programmed manufacturer codes; however, not 100% of codes can be learned and it may be necessary to collect unrecognized codes and send them to SUNWAVE. (See page 24 for more information on unrecognized code collection.)

Manually Selecting the Code
1. Turn on the device you want to program the SRC­3810/3815 to control.
2. Select the device (for example TV).
3. Check the preprogrammed code list that was bundled with the SRC-3810/3815 for the four-digit code number of your device. If no code is displayed, that means this device has no pre-code.
4. Enter the four-digit code number and press confirm the entry.
Note: If the code only has one digit (for example, 0001), you do not have to input the preceding zeros; in this example, press ‘1’.
5. Press the POWER button test the code. The device you are trying to control should turn on (or off) as you press this button. If not, return to Step 2 and try another code.

Using Code Learning Mode
Follow these instructions to enable the SRC-3810/3815 to detect and learn a remote control's configuration.
Before Using the Learning Function
Before you start using the SRC-3810/3815's learning function, please heed the following precautions:
Not all infrared codes are learnable by the SRC­3810/3815. You may need to first collect the codes (see page 24 for more information) and then email them to SUNWAVE New system firmware will be sent to you allowing your SRC-3810/3815 to learn the codes.
To change from a device that has already been programmed, delete all of the commands or the first device before teaching new ones. For example, to operate the living room TV instead of the bedroom TV, delete all commands for the bedroom TV first. Then re­configure the TV device screen for the living room TV.
Code learning does not work with all devices.
Select one device screen in advance before
using code-learning mode.
All keys except the Quick channel keys, Backlight, page, and macro keys can be learned.

2. Press
3. Point the target device's remote control’s infrared eye at the SRC­3810/3815 learning eye located at the bottom of the unit (see Figure 1: Front View, Page3) and keep apart between 2~4 inches (5~10cm).
4. Press the button corresponding to the target device.
The SRC-3810/3815 Touch Screen sequentially displays screens corresponding to first the hard keys, then page one of the soft keys, and finally page two of the soft keys. The blinking rectangle denotes the key being learned.
5. Press the corresponding button of the target device's remote control.
The SRC-3810/3815 screen displays an OK message if the code was successfully learned or an ERROR message if the code was not learned.

Debugging Device Codes
Use this procedure if the SRC-3810/3815 is unable to recognize the infrared signals from another remote control.
Once you have collected unrecognizable codes, you can use the optional SLC–2080 link cable (see Appendix B - Accessories on page 47 for more info) to upload the unrecognized codes to your personal computer and then email them to SUNWAVE for analysis. SUNWAVE can then update the system firmware and send you an updated version that will recognize the codes.
SUNWAVE service email address is:
support@sun-wave.com
All unrecognized codes should be sent to this address.
Every time you enter DEBUG mode, the SRC­3810/3815 replaces previously stored unrecognized codes with new ones. If you have more than one remote that is not programmable, upload the first remote’s unrecognized codes and then gather the second remote's unrecognized codes.
Set up the LCD display before using this function. See LCD Layout on page 26.

Chapter 4 - Controlling Devices
The SRC-3810/3815 is designed to be simple and straightforward to operate. This chapter explains how to use the SRC-3810/3815 to control all your devices.
This Chapter assumes you have already setup the SRC-3810/3815 and assigned Infrared codes to different buttons. See Chapter 3 - Setting Up the SRC-3810/3815 on page 11 for more information on assigning codes.
Selecting a Device to Control

IR Blaster Cable – SRC-IR -( for SRC-3815 )
The IR Blaster Cable is an optional 6 ft. cable with an IR emitter on one end that enables the IR-extender to send signals to a device that would not be within its normal directional range. A device can be operated by aiming the cable at the device or placing it directly onto the device.
Additional RF IR-extender – SEL-6000 ( for SRC-3815)
The RF IR-extender receives the RF signal sent by the SRC-3815 and then sends the appropriate IR signal to the desired device. The SEL-6000 should be aimed at the equipment you want to operate. It has 10 RF address settings that correspond to settings selected in the SRC-3815. Additional IR-extenders can be placed throughout the house.
