URC-SR3
Remote Control
Owner’s Manual
Congratulations!
With your new URC-SR3 Remote Control, you now have the power to control your home entertainment system with just one easy-to-use control. Thousands of audio and video component codes have already been programmed into the remote for you, making it a breeze to set up. Be sure to install the included batteries first. See page 6 for
instructions.
Quick Set-up
Set-up one component at a time, and you’ll move quickly through your system.
STEP 1: Turn on the component you want to
activate. (Other components can be on or off, it doesn’t matter.)
STEP 2: Point your new URC-SR3 Remote Control toward the component and press the appropriately labeled Component button (TV for TV, DVD for DVD, etc.) While holding this
button down, press the numeric assigned to your brand in the Quick Set-up Code Table (See Page 2) and release both Component button and the number key to save the code. The component light will blink two times to confirm that the code has been stored.
STEP 3: Point the remote control at the component.
STEP 4: Press the power button. If it turns off, it is programmed for your component. If it does not turn off, use the Pre-Programmed 3-Digit code Method or Scanning Method.
Check your work before you move to the next component. Press the POWER
[ON] button to turn the component back on. Next, test the VOLUME and CHANNEL buttons (or PLAY and STOP buttons for DVD). Repeat Steps 1-3 to activate up to three components.

Using Component Buttons
Once you have activated the remote for all three of your components, you can simply press a Component button at the top of the remote, and the buttons on the remote will work with that component.
Each time you press a button on the remote, the Component button light will turn on, indicating which component you are controlling.
Learning Capability
The URC-SR3 has the ability to learn functions from the original remote controls of other manufacturers, even if they are not in our pre-programmed database. See page 14 for instructions.
Low Battery Warning
When the batteries are low and need to be replaced, the component light will quickly blink two times when you press the POWER [ON] button.
Couch Mode
We’re watching out for your batteries. Your URC-SR3 remote is designed to automatically turn itself off if a button is pressed for more than 30 seconds. This prevents battery power from being depleted if the remote accidentally slips between the couch cushions.
We love to help!

Three ways to get started
There are three ways you can activate your new URC-SR3 universal remote control using its pre-programmed codes.
1. Quick Set-Up (page 9)
2. Three-Digit Code Set-up (page 10)
3. Auto—Search Set-up (page 12)

1. Quick Set-up
Set-up one component at a time, and you’ll move quickly through your system.
Step 1:
Turn on the component you want to activate. (Other components can be on or off, it doesn’t matter.)
Step 2:
Point your new URC-SR3 Remote Control toward the component and press the appropriately labeled Component button (TV for TV, DVD for DVD, etc.) While holding this
button down, press the numeric assigned to your brand in the Quick Set-up Code Table (See Page 2) and release both Component button and the number key to save the code. The component light will blink two times to confirm that the code has been stored.
Step 3:
Point the remote control at the
component.
Step 4:
Press the power button. If it turns off, it is programmed for your component. If it does not turn off, use the Pre-Programmed 3-Digit code Method or Scanning Method.
Check your work. Press the POWER [ON] button to turn the component back on. Next, test the VOLUME and CHANNEL buttons (or PLAY and STOP buttons for DVD) to make sure they all work. Repeat steps one through three until all your components are set up prop­erly.

2. Three-Digit Set-up
STEP 1: Find the 3-digit code numbers for
your component type and brand from the lists in the back of this manual. The codes are listed by component type (TV, DVD, etc.), then by brand name. Be sure to identify the
list of codes for the correct component and brand. For instance, if you would have a
Sony television, first locate the TV category, and then look for the Sony brand. Be careful. Codes for Sony DVDs may be different than from Sony TVs.
You may want to write the numbers down on a piece of paper before moving to step two.
STEP 2: Turn on the component you want to activate. (Other components can be on or off, it doesn’t matter.)
STEP 3:
On your URC-SR3 remote, press the Component button that you want to set up and the SELECT [SEL] button at the same time. Hold down both buttons for two seconds until the Component light turns on. This signals that you are in set-up mode, and you can then release the buttons.
STEP 4: Point the URC-SR3 toward the component and use the number buttons 0-9 to punch in the first 3-digit code for that specific component.
If the 3-digit code number you just punched in is the correct number, the component you are activating will turn off. If it did not turn off, enter the next code number from your list until it does turn off.
Note: If you do not press a button within 30 seconds, the component light will turn off. The remote will exit the set-up mode, and you will have to start over with step three.

STEP 5: Check your work. Once you’ve entered the code number and the component has turned off, press the POWER [ON] button to turn the component back on. Next, test the VOLUME and CHANNEL buttons (or PLAY and STOP buttons for DVD) to make sure they all work.
For example, perhaps your TV turned off with code number 147, but the volume controls did not work properly. In this case, try the next code number listed for that component.
Repeat Steps 4 and 5 until you find a perfect match.
STEP 6: Save your work. Once you’ve entered
a correct code that turns off your component, you must save it. Press the Component button you just activated one more time to save the code number. The Component light will blink
two times to confirm that the code was successfully stored.
IMPORTANT: If you have tried all the setup codes in the list and the component still did not turn off, either the Auto-Search Set-up (page 12) or the Learning Method (page 14) will help you activate your component. If you need assistance, contact our technical support center at 1-800-901-0800 or techsupport@ universalremote.com, and we’ll be glad to walk you through it.

3. Auto-Search Set-up
The Auto-Search Set-up scans through all of the codes in the table to find the right code for your component. Use this method for components you cannot set up with either the Quick Set-Up or 3-Digit Set-up. This step is not difficult, but tests your patience, as it takes about five minutes to work through the entire table.
STEP 1: Turn on the component you want to activate. (Other components can be on or off, it doesn’t matter.)
STEP 2: On the URC-SR3, press the Component button that you want to set up and the SELECT [SEL] button at the same time. Hold down both buttons for two seconds until the Component button light turns on. This signals that you are in set-up mode and can release the buttons.
STEP 3: Point the remote control toward the component and press the UP or the DOWN arrow button on the nav igation pad. Each time the UP or DOWN arrow button is pressed, the code will count up (or down) one code number and send a Power OFF signal to the component.

Continue pressing the up or down button, in approximately one second intervals, until the component turns off. (DO NOT alternate the up and down button. You want to move in only one direction.)
STEP 4: Once the component has turned off, check your work. Press the POWER [ON] button to turn the component back on.
Next, test the VOLUME and CHANNEL buttons (or PLAY and STOP buttons for DVD) to make sure they all work. If the buttons do not work properly, you need to find a new code. Continue pressing the UP (or DOWN) arrow button until you find a new code that turns off the component and makes the VOLUME or PLAY buttons respond correctly.
STEP 5: Save your work. Once you have found the right code, you must save it. Press the component button you just activated one more time to save the code number. The component light will blink three times to confirm that the code was successfully stored.
Note:
It may take up to five minutes to work your way through the entire pre-programmed table.
If you cannot find the right code after 5 minutes of trying the Auto-Search Method, try the Learning Method (page 14)
Set-up using the Learning Method
STEP 1: Line up the URC-SR3 to the remote
control you want to “learn” from, head—to— head as shown below. Start with the two remotes’ infrared (IR) windows touching, or nearly touching.
STEP 2:
On the URC-SR3, press the Component button that you want to program and the ENTER [ENT] button at the same time. Hold down both buttons for two seconds until the Component button light turns on. This signals that you are in set-up mode.
STEP 3: Press any button on the URC-SR3 that you want to teach a command to. For example, if you want to teach the [MUTE] button on the URC-SR3 the TV Mute command from the other remote, first press the [MUTE] button on the URC-SR3. The TV Component button light will blink once indicating that the URC-SR3 is ready to learn the command.
STEP 4: Press and hold the appropriate button on the other remote until the component button light on the URC-SR3 blinks twice. This indicates the URC-SR3 has learned the command from your other remote.
Didn’t work? Tap and release the button on your old remote instead of pressing and holding the button down. See other tips on page 16.

STEP 5: You can continue learning all other buttons from your old remote by pressing the next button on the URC-SR3 and repeating this step.
Note: The component light will blink five times if there was an error in the learning process. In this case, please repeat Steps 3and 4.
STEP 6: Save your work. After the URC-SR3 has learned all the buttons for the selected component, press and hold the Component button and ENTER [ENT] buttons at the same time to save the learned functions. The component light will blink three times to confirm the programming.
Check your work. Test all the buttons to make sure they learned correctly. Repeat Steps 1-5 to set up any other component modes.
