To program the remote to control a VCR or DVD.
The
VCR•DVD

VCR or your DVD. To program your remote to control either
your DVD or your VCR, you must first put the remote in
the proper programming mode. Follow these directions
before proceeding to step 5.
a. Press and hold the
VCR•DVD

b. While holding down the
VCR•DVD
key, press and
release the number 2 key on the
keypad to control a VCR or the
number 3 key to control a DVD.
The illuminated
ON•OFF
key
turns off.
c. Release the
VCR•DVD
key. The
illuminated
ON•OFF
key blinks
four times and then turns off.
Your remote is now either in
VCR or DVD Programming
Mode, depending on which
you chose. Proceed to step 5.
5. Press and hold the component key
(
TV
,
VCR•DVD
,
SAT•CBL
) you
wish to program. The illuminated
ON•OFF
key turns on and
remains on.
6. While holding the component key
down, press and hold the
ON•OFF
key. The illuminated
ON•OFF
key turns off.
7. After holding both keys down for
three seconds, the illuminated
ON•OFF
key turns back on.
8. Release both keys. The illuminated
ON•OFF

9. Refer to the Brand Codes in the
enclosed Code Lists. Press and
release the appropriate brand code
key, using the number keys on the
keypad. The illuminated
ON•OFF
key blinks once.
TIP:
Throughout the programming
of each key, be sure to keep the remote
pointed at the IR sensor of the
component you are currently
programming the remote to control.
10. Press and release the
ON•OFF
key
repeatedly until your component
turns off. Wait 4 seconds between
each key press. Each time you press
the
ON•OFF
key, the illuminated
ON•OFF
key blinks, and the next
code is sent. The Brand Code
Search begins with the first code in
the chosen brand list for that
component and cycles through all
the codes for that brand. If your
component turns off, you have
found the correct code. (If it cycles
through and the illuminated
ON•OFF
key blinks four times and
turns off, all codes in the chosen
brand lists have been searched. The
Brand Code Search mode is exited.)

Programming the Remote
Your universal remote can operate a variety of brands of
components. In order for your universal remote to control
your components, you need to program the remote with the
codes that match the components (See Code Lists enclosed).
These codes enable the remote to communicate with your
components. Each brand and each component has its own
“language,” and, by programming the correct codes into your
remote, you tell the remote to “speak the same language”
as your components.
There are four methods you can use to program your remote
to operate your components: Brand Code Search and Entry,
Direct Code Entry, Manual Code Search and Entry, and Auto
Code Search and Entry.
Most components can beprogrammed
in one of these four ways. Try them in the order listed.
In order to control combo units, like TV/VCRs or TV/DVDs,
you must program the individual corresponding component
keys to control each part of the combo unit. Once
programmed successfully, the
TV
key controls the TV
functions on your unit, and the
VCR•DVD
key controls the
VCR or DVD functions, respectively. There is a specific
section in the Code Lists for combo units. The codes in this
section should be tried first, using Direct Code Entry on the
TV
and
VCR•DVD
keys. If this is unsuccessful, follow the
normal programming methods for both the
TV
and the
VCR•DVD
keys.
Programming Methods
Brand Code Search and Entry
If your brand is listed in the Brand Code List (See Code Lists
enclosed), you may be able to program your universal remote
by searching through only the Code Lists for that specific
manufacturer. Brand Code Search and Entry can be the quickest
method to program your remote, if your component (TV, VCR
and/or DVD, satellite receiver and/or cable box) is one of
those brands listed.
If your brand is not listed in the Brand Code List, use one of
the other programming methods: Direct Code Entry, Manual
Code Search and Entry or Auto Code Search and Entry.
Follow these instructions to program your remote using
the Brand Code Search and Entry method.
TIP:
To exit without saving at any point in
the Brand Code Search, press and release the
GO BACK
key.
1. Manually turn on the component you want the remote to
control (TV, VCR, DVD, satellite receiver or cable box).
2. Locate the Brand Codes in the Code Lists and keep it handy.
Note:
If you press an invalid key during the Brand Code
Search, the remote does not respond and the search times
out after two minutes. When the search times out, the
illuminated
ON•OFF
key blinks four times and turns off. The
last programmed code under that component key is retained.
