System Information

View the system information for your ReplayTV. This screen lists:

the version of software your ReplayTV is using

the Serial Number of your ReplayTV

the Internet Serial Number of your ReplayTV

the Inbound Port Number, if set

the ReplayTV Service Key for Service Activation

:: Remote Control Setup

Follow these steps to program the remote control to operate your television, TV/VCR combo or TV/DVD combo. When pro-

grammed, the ReplayTV remote will control your TV’s power and volume.

1

Press and hold the Mute and TV (Power) buttons until the LED blinks twice.

2

Enter the 4-digit code for your brand of television (see listings on pages 26-28).

For example, for Sony, press Mute and TV (Power) simultaneously, and then press 0-0-0-0.

If a valid code has been entered, the LED at the top of the remote will blink twice.

If an invalid code has been entered, there will be one long blink and the remote will revert to the previously programmed code.

3

To test the code, press the TV (Power) button on the remote control. 

If your TV turns on/off, programming is complete.

If your TV does not turn on/off, try another code for your brand of television. Not all TVs can be programmed.

To clear all settings, press Mute + TV(Power), then press 9-8-1.
