How to retrieve
a programmed code
Method C – Programming by means
of code retrieval
Method D - Automatic
code search
Method E – Programming for control
of a COMBO (combined TV-VCR set)
Should none of the codes work, you still have the
possibility of retrieving the appropriate code without
having to perform any input.
1. Switch on the set you want to control.
2. Hold down the S key until the key that corresponds
to the last mode you selected blinks 3 times and
then remains lit.
3. Press the key that corresponds to the type of
equipment you want to control:
TV : television set, DVD: DVD player,
VCR
: video recorder, SAT: satellite receiver,
CBL : cable receiver.
4. Direct the remote control towards the set and try to
switch it off by pressing the key
B B
.
5. If the set you want to control switches off, press OK
to memorise the subcode.
6. Should the set not switch off, press key
B B
as many
times as required (up to 200 times), until the set
switches off. Between two key presses, leave
enough time for the key corresponding to the
selected mode enough time to light up again (about
1 second). Proceeding this way will enable you to
see whether the set responds or not.
7. Immediately upon the switching-off of the set to be
controlled, press OK to store the code.
Check of the programming :
In principle, your set is ready for receiving the remote
control commands.
Check your remote control for proper functioning by
performing the test described on page 2.
Try out other remote control keys to find out the range
of functions you can control. If you think that not all of
the keys are active, repeat the procedure of this
programming method to find out the code supporting a
wider range of features.
With this method, the remote control scrolls through the
full code list by sending an IR signal to the set to be
controlled remotely. Proceed as follows:
1. Check that your equipment is on. If not, switch it on
manually.
2. Hold down the S key until the key that corresponds
to the last mode you selected blinks 3 times and
then remains lit (the indicator light remains on for a
few seconds to give you the time to proceed with
the following steps. The indicator lamp flashes to
signal that this time is almost up, and then goes off).
3. Release the S key.
4. Press the key corresponding to the type of
equipment (for example TV).
5. Press the PROG p or standby
B B
or PLAY (VCR
only) key. After a few seconds, the remote control
begins to scroll through the whole code list included
in the library (at a rate of roughly 1 code per
second). Press the PROG
p
key once again to
slow down the test speed (1 code every 3 seconds).
As soon as the set changes channels, you must
press OK to save the code and stop the remote
control scrolling through the list. If you do not react
quickly enough, you can go back to the previous
code by pressing PROG q or REW (VCR only)
as many times as necessary (you can go forward
by pressing
B B
, PROG
p
or PLAY (VCR only) if
you have gone back too far). As soon as the set
responds again, press OK to save the code.
Setting up the remote control for control of a COMBO
means that you first programme the television and then
the video recorder subset, the combination of which
makes up the COMBO set.
Before you start programming, you must find the
subcode or code of the subset to be controlled
(television or video recorder).
Refer to the list supplied with this user manual (see page
subcodes
or codes).
1. Switch on the COMBO you want to control.
2. Hold down the S key until the key that corresponds
to the last mode you selected blinks 3 times and
then remains lit.
3. Press the TV key, then follow one of the
programming methods (A, B, C or D) described
earlier.
4. Hold down the S key until the key that corresponds
to the last mode you selected blinks 3 times and
then remains lit.
5. Press the VCR key, then follow one of the
programming methods (A, B, C or D) described
earlier.
It may be useful to retrieve the code programmed in the
remote control.
1. Hold down the S key until the key that corresponds
to the last mode you selected blinks 3 times and
then remains lit.
2. Press the key that corresponds to the type of
equipment you want to control:
TV
: television set, DVD: DVD player,
VCR : video recorder, SAT: satellite receiver,
CBL : cable receiver.
3. Press the S key briefly, so that the last mode selected
blinks once.
4. Press the numbered keys in ascending order (0 to
9
) until the selected mode blinks once.
5. The number that caused the selected mode to blink
is the first of the three numbers that make up your
code. Make a note of it below.
6. Repeat step 4 to find out the two other numbers of
the code.
7. When the third number has been found, the
indicator light for the selected mode goes out.
6. Should the set not switch off, repeat step 2. Then
type in the next 3-digit code. Try to switch off the set
by pressing key
B B
once. Repeat this procedure by
trying out each of the 3-digit codes.
Check of the programming :
In principle, your set is ready for receiving the remote
control commands.
Check your remote control for proper functioning by
performing the test described on page 2.
Check of
the programming
- For a television or a satellite receiver: switch on and,
for example, press 2 to change channels.
- Video recorder: load a tape and then press PLAY
(
B
).
- DVD player: load a DVD and then press PLAY (
B
).
Try other remote control keys to find out the range of
functions you can control. If you think that not all of the
keys are active, try the programming Method B or C.
When you have retrieved the code of your
set, jot it down so that you can use it
whenever needed.
After battery replacement, you’ll have to
programme the remote control again.
