TV scrolling “INPUT” Workarounds
Many televisions respond to a channel up or a channel number command by changing
to the Antenna input regardless of what input was last selected. This creates an “anchor”
action that puts the television in a known input. Thus you can create a workaround as
follows:
EXAMPLE - CH Up takes TV to the ANT A input (and the TV has 5 inputs -Ant A, Ant B,
EXT1, EXT2 and EXT3)
TV to EXT3 =
1) Ch Up (takes TV to ANT A regardless of what input was last selected)
2) Input (takes TV to next input - ANT B)
3) Input (takes TV to next input - EXT 1)
4) Input (takes TV to next input - EXT 2)
5) Input (takes TV to desired input - EXT 3)
DVD OFF=
1) DVD Play
2) Delay (amount of delay varies with brand and model, typically 1
or 2 seconds)
3) DVD Power
EXAMPLE 2 - Any channel number and ENTER takes TV to the ANT A input (and the
TV has 5 inputs -Ant A, Ant B, EXT1, EXT2 and EXT3)
TV to EXT3 =
1) “0”
2) “2”
3) “Enter” (takes TV to ANT A)
2) Input (takes TV to next input - ANT B)
3) Input (takes TV to next input - EXT 1)
4) Input (takes TV to next input - EXT 2)
5) Input (takes TV to desired input - EXT 3)
