2. Using a small blade screwdriver, rotate each of the two Code Group Setting Switches on the 

rear

 of

the RC68+ to the 

F

 position (

FF

).  See 

Fig. 5

.

3. Turn the remote over and locate a Code Group number that is different than any other Xantech model

used in the same system (i.e., 48, D0, C0, etc.).  These numbers are printed on the 

front face

 of each

RC68+ button! (See item #17, 

Fig. 3

).

4. Aim the RC68+ at the Xantech IR receiver (780, 480, etc.) and press the button that has the number

on it that you decided on.

5. The control chip in the Xantech device (MIRV1/RAT1, RS41AV, etc.) will now change to respond to

the code you selected.

6. Test the system by rotating each of the Code Group Setting Switches on the rear of the RC68+ to the

chosen code number  (refer to 

Fig. 6

).  The Left switch is the first digit in the number and the Right one

is the second digit.

The device should now respond to the RC68+ commands that relate to the operational functions of
that device (i.e., volume up/down, input selection, etc.).

7. Repeat this procedure, as necessary, for each duplicated Xantech device you have in the same

system (except the ZPR68), changing the Code Group each time.

8. When you have completed the Code Group settings for each device, you may then connect them into

the same IR network.  You will now need to "teach" these commands into learning devices such as
the Xantech URC series Learning Remotes, SmartPads, etc.

Be sure to change the Code Group Setting Switches on the rear of the RC68+ (Fig. 6) to match the
newly changed code number you set for each device, during the teaching process.
