Receivers, amplifiers, CD players 

 
Before you can use your remote control, it must be

2.  Before Getting Started 

 
Some of the special features on your remote control are: 
 

Point and Press® Programming 

 

Lets you program your TV, VCR, DVD and AUDIO devices 
without using codes.  For more information, see Sections 5 
and 14. 
         

SmartKeys™ 

 

Program multiple button presses on the [CABLE] and [TV] 
buttons.  For more information, see Section 9. 

 

Mode Lock™ 
 

Your model RT-U50 remote comes “locked” in its cable 
operating mode. To operate more functions on your TV, 
VCR, DVD or AUDIO devices, see Section 11.

 

  

[DEVICE] Button 

 

The [DEVICE] button operates only when Mode Lock™ 
feature is unlocked.  When [DEVICE] is pressed, one of 
the power buttons will light up indicating the current device 
being operated.  While the current mode power button is 
illuminated, press a non-illuminated power button to 
operate a different device.   
 

[VCR / DVD / VOD] Button 
 

Press and hold to “toggle” the transport (Play, Stop, 
Rew...) buttons between Cable (Video-On-Demand), VCR 
or DVD functions. 
 

Memory Guard

®

 

 

Eliminates reprogramming after battery changes. 
 

Time Out 

Shuts remote off if any button is pressed and held for 45 
seconds.  This extends battery life in the event the remote 
becomes lodged under or between heavy objects. 

 
Reset 
 

Lets you reset your remote to its original default settings.  
For more information, see Section 12. 
 
 

3.  Installing / Replacing Batteries 

 
Install two (2) new AAA alkaline batteries.  Properly match the  
“+ / -” ends of the batteries with the diagram in the battery 
compartment.   
 
Low Battery Indication - when the batteries become low and 
need to be replaced, the [CABLE], [TV], [VCR], [DVD], 
[AUDIO] buttons will not illuminate normally, or at all, during 
operation.  When this happens, install two (2) new AAA 
alkaline batteries to restore normal operation to the remote 
control.  
 
Your remote control has Memory Guard™, which eliminates 
reprogramming after battery changes. 
 
  

4.  Programming Cable Set-Top Terminal 

 

Your CheckMate® V remote is pre-programmed to operate 
a UEC digital set-top terminal.   

 
To operate a different cable set-top terminal, look up the brand 
and model in the Cable Setup Code list.  If you are not sure of 
your brand and model, contact your cable operator.

mode buttons illuminate in slow-rotation (i.e. CABLE

remote control.  The cable set-top terminal will turn off.
