LT2002 Clone Programmer
Disconnect the Clone from the TV when you are
finished; automatically switching it off. The real-
time clock continues to run after the main circuits
have been switched off.
Reset Clone After Static Shock
After replacing exhausted batteries, or if the pro-
grammer behaves strangely after a static shock,
use a paper clip or similar instrument inserted
through the small hole marked ”RESET” to activate
the internal reset switch and restore normal opera-
tion.
After a reset, check the real-time clock setting. It
may be necessary to reset the Clone Programmer
clock from a TV containing the correct time.
The LT2002 programmer is designed to be used
with TVs containing the 221-01006 and later
processors. Use with earlier TV sets may give
unpredictable results. The specific microprocessor
used in any TV set may be determined by activat-
ing the Installer Menu. The microprocessor part
number appears on the screen when the Installer
Menu is activated. Processors before the 221-01006-04
have a limited screen display capability. They can not
display entire screens as shown in the quick setup
instructions accompanying the LT2002 clone
programmer. Use the printed menu illustrations on
the quick setup sheet supplied with the Clone as an
aid to making your programming choices. (Although
the menus are not all displayed, the clone functions
all operate normally).
When cloning operations are complete, just unplug the LT2002 from the TV.
If the TV does not display a picture (blank screen) after a few seconds, just change channels.
