Program the Remote to Control My Devices
Your remote is initially programmed to only operate your set-top. The Volume
and Mute keys will not work until a TV code is programmed into the remote. If the
remote provides only limited functionality for a device, you can look for a code
that provides more functionality. Before you begin, make sure you know the brand
name of the device you want to control.
Note:
Some remote keys may be assigned to operate one device type only. For
example, volume control may be assigned to the TV only. If this is the case, you
can reprogram power, volume, and channel control using procedures later in
this guide.
Assigning a Diff erent Device Code to a Mode Key
1. Find the codes for your brand of device in the appropriate setup code list
at the end of this guide. For example, look under
TV Group
if you need to
program the remote to operate your TV.
2. Turn on your device.
3. Press and hold
SELECT
and the appropriate mode key until all of the mode
keys blink twice. For example, to set up the TV, press and hold
SELECT
and
TV.
Note:
If you reassigned mode keys, you may, for example, press
SELECT
and
VCR
to program the VCR mode key with a TV code.
4. Enter the fi rst setup code for the device. All mode keys blink three times to
indicate that the code entry was accepted.
5. Point the remote at the device, and press
POWER, PLAY
,
or
to
test the device.
6. Did the device operate correctly?
•
If
yes
, write down the code that worked on the cover of this guide.
You may need it again if the device code is accidentally erased.
•
If
no
, repeat these steps using a diff erent setup code.
Note:
If none of the codes listed for your brand of device operate the device
correctly, go to
What If None of the Codes Work
for instructions.
7. Repeat this procedure for each mode key you want to program.
