Keys that you normally give a quick press (like the
numbers, and channel up/down) will likely require a
quick press when learning. If after learning, say, the
channel-up key, you find that it changes multiple
channels when pressed once, try relearning it with a
short key press.
•
If learning the first or second keys results in
continuous errors, then try the following:
1. Check that the IR transmitters/sensors are correctly
aligned between the two remotes (see next page).
2. Adjust the distance between the two remotes to be
closer (1/2 an inch) or further away (2 inches) from
each other.
3. Try learning the original remote keys again.
4. If problems reoccur with the same button, check the
original remote key being learned – does it transmit?
Does it operate the target device?
5. Clear all learned settings and try learning again.
If problems reoccur with the same button, check the
original remote button being learned to see if there is
transmission.
Try learning that button under a different cleared mode,
if necessary.
If the remote learns, then this situation is likely a
different code type from others and cannot be learned
under the same mode.
Tips On Learning (cont.)
Your remote is equipped with an easy “learning” feature
that lets it “learn” features (such as
RANDOM PLAY
from your original CD remote).
Tips On Learning
You can only learn one device type under any one mode
button e.g. only learn TV codes under the TV mode,
VCR codes under the VCR mode, etc. If you are trying
to learn from a “universal” type original remote, it might
have more than one code type stored under a mode. Try
learning from another remote to see if there’s a problem
with the type or band of remote you are trying to learn
from.
Keep the following in mind about learning codes.
•
Some functions from some types of remotes might
not be able to be learned.
•
No functions may be learned under the
LEARN
,
SETUP
, and
SELECT
keys.
•
Use fresh batteries for both your new remote and
your original remote.
•
Keep at least 3 feet away from incandescent or low-
energy lights when learning.
•
Place the original remote end-to-end with your new
remote so the IR transmitter (at the top) on your
original remote points at the IR learning device on
the bottom of your new remote.
•
Keep the distance between the two remotes to
approximately 1 inch.
•
Line up the remotes and then press the key you
want to learn. To get the correct range, press the key
on the remote you are learning. Do not change the
distance between the two remotes until you have
learned all the required keys.
•
When Learning, do not release the button being
Learned until the indicator has blinked off for half a
second. However, some keys might be learned
multiple times if you do this. If this happens, just
“tap” the key you want to learn rather than press
and hold it. For example, keys that you normally
hold down for awhile (like volume up or down) will
likely require a long press when learning.
