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

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.

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.

underneath the device needed to be programmed.

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

Make sure your Entertainment Machine is
on. Just click the Trakball by pressing
gently with your thumb, and a hand-shaped
pointer will appear.

on the screen by rolling the Trakball with
your thumb. As you move it from side to
side, top to bottom, different menus will
appear on-screen.
You can use and adjust any of these
options by rolling the pointer so the index
finger on the screen is touching the icon
for the menu or option you want. Click the
Trakball again, and the option or menu
is selected.
When you’re finished and want to return to
normal viewing, either wait a few seconds
and the pointer will disappear, or move the
pointer so that it isn’t touching any icons
or menus, and click again.
When your pointer touches certain

ZENITH REMOTE MANUAL 7 TRACKBALL REMOTES
USING THE TRAKBALL REMOTE
USING THE TACKBALL REMOTE (cont.)
1. When adjusting options that are on
a sliding scale, such as volume,
you don’t have to increase or
decrease them one step at a time.
Just click anywhere on the
spectrum, and the setting will
jump to that point. From there
you can fine tune the levels by
clicking on the small left- and
right-pointing arrows (decrease
and increase, respectively),
moving the levels in small steps.
2. Just about everywhere you see text
or an icon on your screen, you
can probably click there to make
something happen. For example,
once you have one of the items
from the Menu Display on your
screen, such as the Setup Menu,
you can just click on the icon in
the upper left of that menu to
cycle through the other menus.
3. You can adjust the speed your
Trakball moves across the screen
by clicking on the small
Trakball icon at the top of the
PIP/Features Menu. The higher
the speed you set, the more sensitive the Trakball will be to your
movements.
