an RCA TV and VCR, a Motorola (GI) cable box, an RCA satellite
receiver, a Pioneer CD player, a Toshiba DVD player, a Pioneer audio
receiver/ amplifier, and a One For All home automation device. To
control devices other than the default brands, perform the following
steps; otherwise skip this section:
NOTE: For TV/VCR Combo control, see the next section.
1. Turn on a device (e.g.,VCR or DVD player) and, if applicable,
insert media (e.g., cassette or disc).

ABOUT UPGRADING
The One For All 8L Home Theater Upgradeable Universal Remote
Control with Learning has the largest infrared code library available.
However, if you purchase a brand new home entertainment or home
automation device, it may not respond to the codes stored in the
remote control’s memory.
If this happens, please contact our Customer Support department
(see
Customer Support
below) to upgrade the remote control. The
Customer Support representative will search our entire database for
a code that matches your device and instruct you how to enter it into
your One For All 8L Home Theater Upgradeable Universal Remote
Control with Learning.
If the code for your home entertainment or home automation device
is not in our database, we will need to “capture” the code for that
device from its original remote control. A new code would then be
created and entered into your One For All 8L Home Theater
Upgradeable Universal Remote Control with Learning. If necessary,
the Customer Support representative can instruct you how to begin
the capture procedure.
NOTE: One For All reserves the right to replace a returned remote control with
a new one of equal or superior functionality.
