PROGRAMMING DEVICE CONTROL

The URC-1047 Universal Remote Control is preprogrammed to operate a Motorola interactive digital terminal,an RCA TV, an RCA VCR, and a Pioneer audio receiver.

To control devices other than the default brands,perform the following steps; otherwise skip this section:

NOTES: To control a DVD player, program the VCR key. To control a PVR, program the VCR key. To control a stereo amplifier or receiver, program the AUD key.For TV/VCR Combo control, skip this section and perform the instructions on page 10.

1. Turn on a device and, if applicable, insert

video media, (e.g.,cassette or disc).

NOTE: Please read steps 2 through 4 completely before proceeding. Highlight or write down the codes and device you wish to program before moving on to step 2.

2. On the remote control, press a device key once

(e.g., AUD,VCR,or TV).Press and hold SETUP until the selected mode key blinks twice, then release SETUP.

3. Use the Manufacturer’s Codes (starting on

page 38) to locate the the type of device and brand name and then enter the first four-digit code for your device.If performed correctly, the selected mode key will blink twice.

NOTE: If the selected mode key emits a long blink, the entry is invalid. Repeat steps 2 through 3 and try entering the same code again.

4. Aim the remote control at the device and

press POWER once. The device should turn off. If it does not, repeat steps 2 through 3, trying each code for your brand until you find one that works. If it still does not respond,try searching for the code (see

Searching For Your Code on page 11).

device code in the boxes below:

TV/VCR Code

TV Code (if used)

SEARCHING FOR YOUR CODE

If your home entertainment device does not respond to the URC-1047 Universal Remote Control after trying all of the codes listed for your brand,or if your brand is not listed at all,try searching for your code.

For example, to search for a code for your TV:

1. Turn on your TV.

2. On the remote control,press TV once.

Then press and hold SETUP until the TV key blinks twice,then release SETUP.

3. Enter 9 - 9 - 1.The TVkey will blink twice.

Then press and hold SETUP until the TV key blinks twice,then release SETUP.

2. Enter 9 - 9 - 0.The TVkey will blink twice.

3. To view the code for the first digit,press 1

once.Wait 3 seconds and count the number of times the TV key blinks (e.g.,3 blinks = 3) and write down the number in the leftmost TV Code box (see below).

NOTE: If a code digit is “0”,the selected mode key will not blink.

4. Repeat step 3 three more times for the

remaining digits.Use 2 for the second digit, 3 for the third digit,and 4 for the fourth digit. Finish writing down the code in the TV Code boxes below.

5. To check for other device codes,repeat steps

1 through 4,but substitute the appropriate key (i.e., AUD or VCR) for the (Audio or VCR) device you are checking.Write down the codes in the appropriate boxes below.

1. Perform steps 1 and 2 in the first section

above, To Program The Master Power Key.

2. To clear the settings and exit the program,

press and hold SETUP until the CBL key blinks twice, then release SETUP.

RE-ASSIGNING DEVICE KEYS

The URC-1047 Universal Remote Control can be set up to control a second TV, PVR,DVD player,or VCR, or any combination of up to four home entertainment devices. For example, to have the unit control a TV, a Cable Converter, and two VCRs,you will need to re-assign the unused AUD key to operate the second VCR as follows:

1. On the remote control,press VCR once.

Then press and hold SETUP until the VCR key blinks twice,then release SETUP.

2. Enter 9 - 9 - 2.The VCRkey will blink twice.

3. Press VCR once, then press AUD once. The

AUD key will blink twice.

4. The AUD key is now ready to be programmed

for your second VCR. See Programming Device Control on page 8.

To re-assign other device keys,repeat steps 1 to 4 and substitute the key sequence using the following chart:

To Re-Assign Perform Key Sequence

TV as 2nd VCR key: TV - SETUP - 9 - 9 - 2 - VCR - TV TV as 2nd AUD key: TV - SETUP - 9 - 9 - 2 - AUD - TV TV back to TV: TV - SETUP - 9 - 9 - 2 - TV - TV VCR as 2nd TV key: VCR - SETUP - 9 - 9 - 2 - TV - VCR VCR as 2nd AUD key: VCR - SETUP- 9 - 9 -2- AUD - VCR VCR back to VCR: VCR - SETUP- 9 - 9 -2 - VCR - VCR AUD as 2nd TV key: AUD - SETUP - 9 - 9 - 2 - TV - AUD AUD

back to

AUD

AUD - SETUP- 9 - 9 - 2 - AUD- AUD

Upon completion of a re-assignment,the selected mode key will blink twice to confirm your selection.Then you’ll need to program device control (see Programming Device Control on page 8).
