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.

BUTTONS

SELECT

BUTTON

DOWN

ARROW

Page | 13

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.

If the Learning Method does not work, here are a few suggestions:

• Infrared (IR) beams on all remotes are sensitive to light, and can be impacted several ways. Here are some things to look out for: – If you have a Plasma TV, move

farther away from it or to another room while working with the remotes.

– Avoid programming under fluorescent

light or direct sunlight. Close your curtains during the day.

– If you have a glass top or metal table,

put a cloth between the table and the remotes to reduce reflections. It’s a great use for your black t-shirts.

• Put new batteries in the old remote.

• Gradually vary the distance between the two remote controls.

• Adjust the angles of the remotes (i.e.,keep the URC-SR3 on a flat surface while holding the other remote in hand and angling it down toward the URC-SR3)

• Tap and release the button on your old remote instead of pressing and holding the button down

Here are some additional facts regarding the learning process:

• Learned functions override any existing preprogrammed functions on the remote control

• Learned functions are automatically erased when a new function is learned on the same button

• Learned functions are retained even after a different set-up code number is programmed into the remote control

• To return to an original pre-programmed function, a learned function must be erased.

What to know before you start:

• You can program up to 20 sequential commands on a Macro button.

• You can program delays in between commands by pressing the [PAUSE] button on the transport control.

– Each press adds a one-half second

delay.

– If you add the delay time as the first

step of Macro commands, the remote will not send the Macro unless the button is held for two seconds.

• You can set up program macro commands in layers by pressing the [STOP] button in between commands. This will allow you to rotate commands, and is typically used to program channel lists. For example, when working the “Favorites” buttons (A, B, C or D), if you press [009], [STOP], [035], [STOP], [365], [STOP] the remote will send out 009 at the first press of the selected Favorite button, and then send out 035 at the second press, etc.

• You can set up the [CH

] or [PAUSE;]

buttons with macros.

MacroPower for Total System On or Off

MacroPower makes several devices work together while pressing just one button. If you want to turn on your TV, DVD player and Cable/Sat receiver by pressing a single button, you can. Both the Power On and the All Off buttons can be programmed for MacroPower control.

Note: Most components use the same signal to turn the power on and off. You may want to set-up MacroPower only in the POWER [ON] button and save the [ALL OFF] button to turn components on or off individually.

STEP 1: To set-up MacroPower for the POWER [ON] button, press the POWER [ON] button and the Select button at the same time for two seconds until any one of the Component lights turns on. Release the buttons before going on to step 2.

STEP 2: Press the component button you want to turn on and then press the POWER [ON] button; repeat for all other components in the order you want them to turn on. The Component light will blink once each time you press the POWER [ON] button.

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 one.

STEP 3: Once you’ve entered all the Power On commands, press the CHANNEL Up

[CH

Erasing Commands - Overview

If you have set up your macros and punch throughs, you should be able to put all your other controls away for safe keeping.

However, you may find one pesky control you want to change or get rid of. The URC- SR3 allows you to erase commands easily.

You can erase a single learned command, all learned commands in each omponent mode, SimpleSound programming, MacroPower commands, or re—set the remote to original factory default settings.

These next few pages walk you through the process.

Erasing a Single Learned Command from One Component

STEP 1: Press the component button where

the learned command is stored and the [ENTER] button at the same time for two seconds until the component LED light turns on.

STEP 2: Press and hold the button you want to erase for two seconds. The component light will blink twice to confirm the erasure.

NOTE: If you do not press a button within 30 seconds, the component light will turn off. The remote will exit the programming mode, and you will have to start over with step one.

STEP 3: Repeat Step 2 to erase any other buttons in the selected component mode.

STEP 4: To exit Erase mode, press and hold both the component button and the [ENTER] button at the same time until the component light blinks three times.

Finding a Component’s Set-up Code Number

If you used the Auto-Search or Learning Methods to set up a component, you may not know the code number you programmed. Here is a way for you to identify what that code number is, so you can make a note in the back of this Manual for future reference.

STEP 1: Press the component button you would like to verify and the SELECT [SEL] button at the same time for two seconds until the selected Component light turns on.

STEP 2: Press the [INFO] button and count the number of times the Component LED light blinks. This number in dicates the first digit of the code. Next, it will pause for about one second and begin blinking again to indicate the number of the second digit. Then onceagain it will pause, then blink, to indicate the number of the third digit.

Note: If you do not press a button within 30 seconds, the component light will turn off. The remote will exit the programming mode, and you will have to start over with step one.

Example: One blink, pause, eight blinks, pause, three blinks indicates code number183. Note that ten (10) blinks represent thenumber 0.

Frequently Asked Questions

If the batteries run out, will I lose my settings?

No. The URC-SR3 stores all of your settings in nonvolatile FLASH memory. You could remove the batteries for months, replace them at your convenience, and the URC-SR3 would still remember your settings.

What about my Blu-Ray player?

Treat your Blu-Ray player just like a DVD. You can set it up using the DVD button.

My code number isn’t listed in your manual. Is there anywhere else I can find it?

Many codes are listed online in the manufacturer’s website. Use your favorite search engine to search the brand, component, and code. For example “Westinghouse TV code”

What if my remote control no longer works from a distance?

Replace the batteries with new Alkaline batteries.
