About your remote control
Installing the batteries
Insert the 4 batteries supplied (LR03 / AAA) according to the direction indicated (polarity).
Note: programmed keys maintain programming when replacing the batteries.
About the batteries
• Your ROC 850 uses 4 LR03 (AAA) batteries.When changing the batteries, choose preferably
alkaline batteries, and ensure they are inserted in the right direction (polarity).
• Do not leave the batteries in the remote control if you intend no to use it for a long period
of time. Used batteries can leak an acid liquid.This liquid can damage the remote control and
is toxic: it burns the skin and the mucous. Use gloves when handling such batteries.
• Remove the batteries if you intend not to use your remote control for a long period of time.
• Do not throw the batteries into a fire; store them away from sources of intense heat; do not
short them: they may explode.
• Never let a child play with batteries as he/she may bite them, swallow them, or choke on
them.
• Please respect the environment and prevailing regulations. Before you dispose of
batteries ask your dealer whether they are subject to special recycling and if he accepts
to take them back.

Description of the touch screen keys
The LCD touch screen is used as a virtual keypad, activated when pressed. It
includes 15 areas representing 15 keys.These keys are contextual, i.e. their
number and function depend on the device to control.Therefore, they
depend on the mode chosen (keypad key on which you have pressed
VCR, …).
Your remote control can display 2 virtual keypads on the LCD touch screen for current use.The

Programming the ROC 850
Any device (TV,VCR, satellite receiver, …) can be controlled using the VCR, DVD, SAT, CD,
AUDIO, CBL and AUX mode keys, provided the remote control is programmed, by allocating
the 3-digit code matching the make of the device to control, or using 2 other code scanning
methods.Therefore, the remote control can be programmed in several ways: by entering a code,
scanning by make, auto scanning.
Note: when pressing, the red indicator lights briefly, and you hear a beep.An error is indicated by 3 blinkings
and 3 beeps.
Programming by entering a 3-digit code
Note: before starting, take the document appended in your hands. It lists the codes for most devices. Search
for the type (TV,VCR, …) and make of the device you wish to control. For certain makes, several codes are
proposed.These different codes apply to various generations of devices. Program the remote control by
testing each code, until you find the code covering the most functions possible. Certain codes do not enable
controlling the device required, whereas other codes provide access to more or less functions.
1. Switch on the device to control (TV,VCR, …).
2. Activate the touch screen by pressing it.
3. Press and hold the SETUP (6) key until the red indicator remains lit (2-3
seconds) and the following screen displays (Setting screen). Release the

7. Press the EXIT key on the touch screen.The virtual screen for controlling the device chosen
in step 4 displays. Programming is complete.
Note: point the remote control towards the device and press the B key on the keypad (3). If the device
switches off, this means the code entered is correct. All you need to do is check the various keys on the touch
screen, in order to determine whether the keys proposed on the screen can be used to control the device
concerned. If keys are inoperative, reprogram the remote control using another code proposed in the list.
8. Repeat this procedure for the other devices to control (TV, VCR, DVD, SAT, CD, AUDIO
and AUX).

To recover all the features of one of your original remote controls (e.g. the one supplied with
your TV set), you can download the infrared codes from the original remote control into your
ROC 850.Your ROC 850 can “copy” up to 40 keys per mode.
Before starting, read the following tips:
• Check that the batteries in both remote controls are not used.
• Perform a zero reset of programming before starting this operation (see page 18).This means
that all the parameters in the ROC 850 remote control will be restored to their default value
(factory settings).
• Lay both remote controls as shown in the figure below, and at same horizontal level as the
ROC 850.
• Leave a distance of about 5 cm between both remote controls, while ensuring you are away
from an incandescent or energy saving lamp.
• Perform a test, by downloading 2 or 3 keys and trying them out.Then perform a zero reset
before a full download of all the functions in the original remote control.
• When downloading a key, do not release the key transmitted as long as the screen does not
redisplay and the red indicator remains lit.This can require 2 to 3 seconds.
• No function can be memorized under the
touch screen or the
keys on the keypad.

Troubleshooting
If the remote control does not operate or malfunctions, check that the
solution is not in the following advice:
• Check that you have pressed one of the 8 mode keys of your ROC 850 (TV, VCR,
DVD, ...).
• Check that the original remote control of the device you wish to control is operating
properly.
• If the list of codes you chose in programming (page 8) is inoperative, try the next code or
use automatic scan programming (page 10).
• If the red indicator remains lit, usually after a long period of time, this means that the
batteries are ageing. Replace them as soon as possible.
• If you have just replaced the batteries, check they are inserted properly. Do not mix new
batteries and used batteries, or batteries of different types (alkaline, saline, ...). Use new
alkaline batteries, preferably from the same manufacturer.
