INSTALLING BATTERIES
1. On the back of the Dolphin Remote, remove
the screws that hold the battery cover in place
and lift off the battery cover.
2 Obtain two (2) fully-charged AA alkaline
batteries.
Match the + and – marks on the batteries to
the + and – marks in the battery case, then
insert the new batteries.
3. Press the battery cover back into place, being
careful to align the rubber seal.
4. Replace the screws that hold the cover by
carefully starting each one without tightening it.
Once they are all started, snug up one screw
and then do the same to the screw on the
opposite side of the door. Repeat this in a
crossing pattern until all screws are snug. Do
not over-tighten them. This will assure an
adequate water seal around the battery door.
4. Test the unit by pressing POWER and any mode
key (e.g. AUDIO,VCR, TV, or CBL). If the
batteries are inserted correctly, the LED will
blink once.
NOTE:
Whenever batteries need replacement, the
Dolphin will blink twice with every key press.
Simply replace the batteries and the remote will
be restored to its full functionality, complete
with your favorite settings.

USING THE
IR/RF COMMAND CENTER
The Dolphin Remote Control (URC-9811) can be
used with an optional IR/RF Command Center
which receives radio-frequency (RF) signals from
the Dolphin, anywhere in your home, up to 100
feet away*.
Once it is set up, the IR/RF Command Center will
convert the RF signals into Infrared (IR) signals to
control your home theater devices.
NOTE: The Dolphin remote control transmits both
an IR and an RF signal simultaneously. It is your
option whether you want to install the IR/RF
Command Center for extended remote control
range. If you choose to do so, during testing do
not aim the HT Pro Plus remote control at your
home entertainment devices to verify that RF
transmission is working.
NOTE: The RF signal transmitted by the Dolphin
remote control, only works with the IR/RF
Command Center.
Setting Up The IR/RF Command Center
1. Find a location approximately 8 feet in front of
your home theater devices. It should provide
(line-of sight) access to your equipment and a
power outlet to plug in the IR/RF Command
Center.
2. Plug in the IR/RF Command Center’s power
cord and raise the telescoping antenna.
3. Position the IR/RF Command Center so the
black IR Lens is aimed at your home theater
devices.
4. To test the IR/RF Command Center, take the
Dolphin into another room in your home, up
to100 feet away. Select a device key (e.g., TV)
and press it once.Then press POWER once.
The device (e.g., TV) should turn on. If it does not
turn on, review the steps 1 through 3 and make
any adjustments.Try step 4 again. If you continue to
have a problem, perhaps there is an IR line-of
sight problem. Try adding the IR Signal Extension
Cord. Also review the tips in Optimizing IR/RF
Command Center Reception.
Adding The IR Signal Extension Cord
Included with the IR/RF Command Center is an IR
Signal Extension Cord for use with a home theater
device that is not in direct line-of-sight of the IR/RF
Command Center.
If you are having problems remotely controlling a
home theater device from another room, try
performing the following installation:
1. Plug the 4-foot IR Signal Extension Cord into
the back of the IR/RF Command Center.
2. Run the IR Signal Extension Cord to the device
that is not in line-of-sight of the IR/RF
Command Center.
3. Using the supplied double-sided tape, attach
the IR Signal Extension Cord so that its LED is
over or next to the IR sensor of your home
theater device.
LED
4. Test the installation by again taking the HT Pro
Plus remote control into another room in your
home, up to 100 feet* away. Select a device key
(e.g., TV) and press it once.Then press POWER
once.
The IR/RF Command Center will convert the RF
signal from the HT Pro Plus remote control into an
IR signal and transmit that signal through the IR
Signal Extension Cord to turn on your device (e.g.,
TV).
If it does not turn on, try repositioning the LED
until the device can be controlled, then re-attach
the LED.
Optimizing IR/RF Command Center
Reception
Here are some adjustment tips for optimizing the
operation of your IR/RF Command Center:
• Aim the HT Pro Plus remote control toward the
room where the IR/RF Command Center is
located.
• Do not position the IR/RF Command Center
near metal objects, such as heat ducts.Metal
can absorb RF signals.
• Make sure the batteries in the HT Pro Plus
remote control are fully charged.Try replacing
them if you are not sure (see Installing
Batteries on page 4). Weak batteries will affect
the signal range.
• Make sure that the HT Pro Plus remote control
is not being affected by other RF transmissions
(e.g., garage door openers, cordless
telephones, etc.).
NOTE: The tests for range limits of the HT Pro Plus
remote control and the IR/RF Command Center
were conducted in open-air distance tests. Actual
signal distance will be based on the construction of
the building the unit is being used in, as well as
other factors, such as outside interference.
