Setting Up the Remote
Commander

About Presetting the Commander

The Commander is preset at the factory to operate
Sony brand components.
If you’re using  the Commander with a Sony
component, you won’t need to preset the
Commander before you start using it.
To set up the Commander to use with other (non-
Sony) manufacturers’ components, or to use with a
component that is not preset at the factory, you’ll
need to follow the instructions in this manual to
preset the Commander with the correct code
number for your components. (See the supplied
“Component code numbers” also).

Notes

•The Commander can be set up to operate only

one component per button – unless their code
numbers happen to be the same.  For example,
you cannot set up the Commander to operate a
Sony TV and a Panasonic TV simultaneously
(because they use different code numbers).

•You may not be able to operate even a Sony

brand component with the factory presetting. In
such a case, follow the procedure in “Setting the
Code.”

Installing the Batteries

Before replacing the batteries, have new ones
ready beforehand.

Push open the battery compartment and insert two
R6 (size AA) batteries*.
Be sure to line up the + and – on the batteries with
the + and – on the battery compartment.

2

* The supplied manganese batteries are for testing

purposes.

When to replace the batteries

Under normal conditions, batteries will last up to
one year. If the Commander does not operate
properly, the batteries might be worn out.  Replace
the batteries with new ones.

Notes

•Replace both batteries with new ones.
•Do not take more than 3 minutes to replace the

batteries; otherwise, your setting of the code
numbers will be erased.

Notes on Batteries

•Do not mix old batteries with new ones or mix

different types of batteries together.

•If the electrolyte inside the battery should leak,

wipe the contaminated area of the battery
compartment with a cloth and replace the old
batteries with new ones. To prevent the
electrolyte from leaking, remove the batteries
when you plan not to use the Commander for a
long period of time.

Setting the Code

Follow the steps 1 and 2 below for each component
you plan to use with the Commander.

Step 1: Entering the Code Number

1

See the supplied
“Component code
numbers”, and find the
four-digit code number
for the desired
component.
If more than one code
number is listed, use
the number that’s listed
first.
For example, if you’re
setting up a Sony TV,
you would use the
code number 8201.
If your component isn’t
listed, see “Searching
for the Correct Code.”

Press 

SET

 more

than two seconds.
The SET indicator
lights up.

3

Press the Number buttons to enter the
four-digit component code number.

4  

Press 

ENT

. The SET indicator turns

off. If the SET indicator flashes five
times before lighting up, it means
that the setup is incomplete.
Confirm the component code
number and start over from Step 3.

If the code setting is not finished
properly

If you do not input anything into the Commander
within 20 seconds between each step, or if you
press 

SET

 while setting the component code, the

setup procedure will be cancelled.
Start over from Step 2.

Step 2: Checking if the Code Number
Works

1

Power on the component you want to set
up.

2

Aim the Remote Commander at the
component and press a button to check if
that button works.
For example, press the 

1

 

button to see if it

works on your component .

3

Check that the other buttons of the
Commander are operating the
corresponding functions of the
component.

You can write down the code number on the
label inside the battery compartment lid.

If the Commander Doesn’t Seem to Be
Working...

•First, try repeating these setup procedures using

the other codes listed for your component (see
the supplied “Component code numbers”).

•If – after trying all the codes listed for your

component – you still cannot get the Commander
to work properly, try the search method
described in “Searching for the Correct Code.”

Troubleshooting

If you have problems setting up or using the Commander:
• When setting up the Commander, carefully go through the

procedures described in “Setting the Code.”  If the code
that’s listed first for your component doesn’t work, try all
the codes for your component - in the order in which they’re
listed.  If all the codes fail to work (or if your component is
not listed in this manual), try using the procedures in
“Searching for the Correct Code.”

• Check that you’re aiming the Commander directly at the

component, and that there are no obstructions between the
Commander and the component.

• Make sure the batteries you’re using are not worn out, and

that they’re inserted correctly.

• Check that the component has infrared remote capability.

For example, if your component didn’t come with a remote
commander, it probably isn’t capable of being controlled by
a remote commander.

• Should any problem persist, reset the Commander to the

factory setting by pressing the 

1

t

 and 

2

 buttons

simultaneously.
