WELCOME
We created this Quickstart Guide to help you get your weemote® set-up as fast as possible.
Please follow the Step-by-Step sections in this guide, in the order presented. Doing so
will save you from possible confusion and frustration later.
For most consumers who have a cable-ready TV, these will be the only instructions you will need. Since the weemote® is highly configurable for many different types of home entertainment systems, we have also included a reference guide. There may be cases when you need to use both guides to setup your weemote®.
If you run into problems and can’t find the answers in either guide, then please visit our web site at www.weemote.com for the latest updates and technical bulletins. Please note
that there is a troubleshooting section contained in the Reference guide.
We welcome your feedback on our manuals. If you found a unique way to use the weemote®, please let us know so we can spread the word. Send your comments to info@fobis.com or call us at 305-253-8387.

power button can do many things, depending on how you have programmed your weemote. The most simple function is turning your TV on and off. If you are also using a Set-Top box, this button will turn also turn your Set-Top box on and off. When a Set-Top box is configured, this button can also set your TV to channel 3/4 to

ensure that your Set-Top channels are always ready for viewing from your TV. This button can also be set to send the first favorite channel you
program on the FAV# button whenever you
press the power button. You can also set the weemote to NOT turn your TV or Set-Top box on and off using this button .
Favorite Buttons 1-5. Buttons that allow you to program channel numbers from 1 to 9999 . For the kids weemote®, you must program a minimum of one channel. You can program the same channel on multiple buttons. If you have a cable box, satellite receiver or DVR (Set-Top), the weemote will automatically route all channel changing commands to your Set-Top Box. You can also set any or all of the Favorite Channel buttons to learn any signal from your existing remote control. For example, you might want to add your last channel, sleep timer or video input control from your existing remote control to any one of the Favorite buttons on the weemote.
Volume Up/Down Control. This button is factory set to control the volume from your TV. You have the option to turn the volume control off in cases where you don’t want the user to change the volume from the weemote®. Using the learning feature, you can also assign the volume control to be used with your Home Theater audio source.
Channel Up/Down Control. For the weemote®, the channel up/down control is factory set to only cycle through the favorite channels you have programmed into the weemote®. For the weemote® Sr, the channel up/down control is factory set to go to all channels, just like a standard remote. You have the option to swap these settings or to turn this control off altogether. See Page 14 for more information on how to change this option.
Programming Buttons. These buttons are only accessible when you remove the program­ming cover of the weemote®. Used to setup your weemote® as described in this guide and the reference guide. Since these buttons are normally secured after you program the weemote®, your settings are always protected. All programming information is stored in permanent memory, regardless of battery levels.

TIP - ENTERING NUMBERS
Before you begin to program in your favorite channels or codes, here is a quick overview on the 100, 10 and 1 buttons. These buttons allow you to program in the channels and codes you will need to setup the weemote®. To support channels above 999, we have also provided a means to enter in channels in the thousands range - see note at the bottom of this page.
For weemote® Sr. users:
The weemote® Sr. is already set to go to all channels using the Channel Up/Down control. You can program channels 6-10 but if you do this, you will lose the ability to scroll through all the channels using the channel up/down control.
For both weemote® and weemote® Sr. users:
You can set an option for the Favorite Channel programmed on button #1 to automatically go on whenever you press the RED power button. Please refer to Page 14 of the Reference Guide on how to set this option.

10
Depending on which number you need, you simply break down that number by 1000’s, 100’s, 10’s and 1’s. For example, channel 294 would be entered by pressing the 100 button twice (100 X 2), the 10 button nine times (10 X
9) and the 1 button four times (1 X 4). See diagram below.
Don’t worry about entering zeros - the weemote® will add them in later. The weemote® will automatically add one zero but if you need more, there is an option available to allow you to support sending 3/4 digits, if your device needs it.
Example: To Enter Channel 294
PRESS - # TIMES
294
100 1 0 1
200 + 90 + 4 = 294
To enter in channel numbers in the thousands range, you would use the “A” button to enter increments of 1000. For example, to enter in channel 8294, you would press and release the “A” button 8 times (=8000), followed by entering the remaining channel information, “294”, as shown above.

2. Please refer to the TV, TV/VCR, TV/DVD CODES on the following pages.. NOTE: TV, TV/VCR and TV/ DVD TYPE CODES ARE LISTED SEPARATELY. If you cannot find your brand TV listed by it’s type (TV/ VCR or TV/DVD or TV/VCR/DVD), then look for your brand in the other type categories and try those codes. If you still can’t find your brand in any TV catagory, then you will need to search for your code ­See Page 6 of the Reference Guide .
3. Locate the first code listed for your brand and TV type .For ths example, we will use the code 109 which is the first listed for a SONY brand TV.
4. Press and hold down the button until the
LED light turns on solid GREEN , then release
the button.
5. Enter the Code number. In our example, we are using the SONY code number 109.
6. Now, press and release the POWER button . If the TV turns off, then press and relese the POWER button again. If the TV turns on, then you have the
correct code. In this case, go ahead and press and
release the button. The LED light will blink
three times and then turn off.
If the POWER button does not respond correctly in this step, then go back and repeat Steps 5 and 6,
trying the next code available that is listed for your brand. If you have tried all the codes listed for your brand and you still cannot find a code to turn your TV on and off, then you will need to proceed with searching for your code as described on Page 6 of the Reference guide.
If you are only setting up a cable-ready TV, then this will be your final step. If you use any special buttons on your existing TV remote to change channels such as the ENTER button , or your TV requires the use of 3 or 4 complete digits for changing channels, then please refer to page 8 of the reference guide.
