Illuminated Component Names

Depending on which mode you are in (TV Mode, VCR Mode, etc.), the
word above each component key lights up to serve as an indicator
light, providing feedback for various functions. When a valid key is
pressed, the component name remains lit as long as the key is pressed
and turns off when the key is released. The component name also
blinks in Programming Mode or in Menu Mode to provide feedback.

Programming the Remote

Your universal remote can operate a variety of brands of components.
In order for your universal remote to control your components, you
need to program the remote with the codes that match the
components (See Code Lists enclosed). These codes enable the remote
to communicate with your components. Each brand and each
component has its own "language," and, by programming the correct
codes into your remote, you tell the remote to "speak the same
language" as your components.
There are four methods you can use to program your remote control
to operate your components: Brand Code Search and Entry, Direct
Code Entry, Manual Code Search and Entry, and Auto Code Search
and Entry. Most components can be programmed in one of these
four ways. Try them in the order listed.
In order to control combo units, like TV/VCRs, TV/DVDs or
TV/VCR/DVDs, you must program the individual corresponding
component keys to control each part of the combo unit. Once
programmed successfully, the TV key controls the TV functions on
your unit, and the DVD or VCR·AUX key controls the DVD or VCR
functions, respectively. There is a specific section in the Code Lists for
combo units. The codes in this section should be tried first, using
Direct Code Entry on the TV and DVD or VCR·AUX keys. If this is
unsuccessful, follow the normal programming methods for both the
TV and the DVD or VCR·AUX keys.
VCR·AUX Key
Important: The VCR·AUX key defaults to program a VCR. If you
want the VCR·AUX key to control a component other than a VCR
(an additional TV or DVD, for example), it is necessary for you
to preprogram the VCR·AUX key. See the section entitled
"Programming the VCR·AUX Key To Control a Component
Other Than a VCR" on page 7.
Programming Methods
Brand Code Search and Entry
If your brand is listed in the Brand Code List (See Code Lists
enclosed), you may be able to program your universal remote by
searching through only the Code Lists for that specific manufacturer.
Brand Code Search and Entry can be the quickest method to program
your remote, if your component (TV, DVD, VCR and satellite receiver
or cable box) is one of those brands listed.
If your brand is not listed in the Brand Code List, use one of the other
programming methods that follow.
Follow these instructions to program your remote using the Brand
Code Search and Entry method. Example used is for TV component
set up.
!
TIP
To exit without saving at any point in the Brand
Code Search, press and release the GO BACK key.
1. Manually turn on the component you want the remote to control
(TV, VCR, DVD, satellite receiver or cable box).
2. Locate the Brand Codes in the Code Lists and keep it handy.

Note: If you press an invalid key during the Brand Code Search, the
remote does not respond. If you do not press a valid Brand Code
Search key (TV, DVD, VCR·AUX, SAT·CBL, ON·OFF, GO BACK, and
number keys 0-9), the search times out after two minutes. When the
search times out, the name of the current component blinks four times
and turns off. The last programmed code under that component key
is retained.
3. Press and hold the component key (TV,
DVD, VCR·AUX, SAT·CBL) you wish to
program. (To program the VCR·AUX key
to control a component other than a VCR,
see page 7). The component name
illuminates and remains on.
4. While holding the component key down,
press and hold the ON·OFF key. The
illuminated component name turns off.
5. After holding both keys down for three
(NAME NOT LIT)
seconds, all of the component names
illuminate and stay on.
6. Release both keys. The name of the
current component remains on, while
all other component names turn off.
(NAMES LIGHTS UP)
7. Refer to the Brand Codes in the enclosed
Code Lists. Press and release the
appropriate brand code key (Numbers
0-9), using the number keys on the
keypad. The illuminated component
(STAYS LIT)
name blinks once.
!
TIP
Throughout the programming
of each key, be sure to keep the remote
pointed at the IR sensor of the component
you are currently programming the remote
to control.
8. Press and release the ON·OFF key
repeatedly until your component turns
off. Each time you press the ON·OFF key,
the illuminated component name blinks,
and the next code is sent. The Brand
Code Search begins with the first code in
the chosen brand list for that component
and cycles through all the codes for that
brand. If your component turns off, you
have found the correct code. (If it cycles
through and the illuminated component
name blinks four times and turns off, all
codes in the chosen brand lists have been
(NAME BLINKS)
searched and another programming
method should be tried. The Brand Code
Search mode is exited.)
9. Once you have found the correct code,
you must save that code by pressing and
releasing the STOP key. The illuminated
component name turns off. You must
press the STOP key to save the code or
the correct code will not be stored!
10.To confirm that the component key is
(LIGHT OFF)
programmed with the correct code for
maximum functionality, test the
component. Attempt to control a variety
of the component's functions with the
remote. If some of the features of your
component do not work, try
programming the remote with a different
programming method.

Direct Code Entry

To program your universal remote to control your components using
the Direct Code Entry Method, follow the steps below. Example used
is for TV component set up.
1. Manually turn on the component you want the remote to control
(TV, VCR, DVD, satellite receiver or cable box).
2. Locate the enclosed Code Lists. Find the list for the component
you wish to program. Find your component's brand. You will see a
listing of four-digit codes for each brand. If your brand isn't listed,
use one of the Code Search methods to program the remote control.
(Refer to pages 6-9 for Manual and Auto Code Search methods.)
