REMOTE PROGRAMMING

PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS

If you’re using Zenith products, the remote is already
programmed for most common codes: TV = 101, VCR =
201, CABLE = 353, and AUX = 401. For other brands, or
if your remote fails to control your Zenith products, you’ll
have to program the remote. Make sure the batteries are
installed and follow these steps for each product:

1. Make sure the equipment is turned on.

2. Point the MBR Trakball remote at the device you’re
programming, press MUTE and FLSHBK at the same
time. Hold until one of the mode indicator LEDs
lights.

3. Use the MODE Right/Left button to select the appro­priate mode for equipment.

4. With the Number Keypad, enter the three digit code
and press ENTER. If the code is accepted, the mode
indicator Led will blink three times, If it is not
accepted, the Led will not blink.

NOTE: The TV and VCR modes will only accept codes for

those types of products. The AUX 1, AUX 2, and
Cable modes will accept codes for any kind of product.

5. Push the POWER button to turn off the equipment. If
nothing happens, repeat the process from step 1,
and try the next code number.

NOTE: To quit programming before you enter a code, just

press the QUIT button on remote.

CABLE BOX VOLUME

This remote can control the cable/converter box volume
and muting (instead of the TV’s) if available on your
equipment.

1. Program the cable/converter box normally.

2. Press MUTE and FLSHBK at the same time. Hold until
the mode indicator LED lights.

3. Use MODE to position the indicator light under Cable.

4. This time, enter the special code 3-9-9 instead of
the product code.

5. Press and release ENTER to save. The indicator light
should blink and then turn off.

VOLUME OVERRIDE

These remotes can override TV, VCR, or Video Disk Player
volume functions with an amplifier’s volume and muting.

the mode indicator LED lights.

3. Use MODE to position the indicator light under the
device name used for the amplifier.

4. This time, enter the special code 4-9-9 instead of
the product code.

5. Press and release ENTER to save. The indicator light
should blink and then turn off.

AUTO FIND

If none of the codes in the code table operate your
equipment, use Auto Find to search for the proper code.

1. Turn on the device you want to operate.

2. Press and hold MUTE and FLSHBK until the indicator
light turns on.

3. Press MODE Left/Right until the indicator light is
underneath the device needed to be programmed.

then press the ENTER key right away.

button. Allow a second to pass, then push the Power
button again. Repeat until the device turns off. If

the remote will blink three times and then turn off.
