code search to program the DVD•BLU RAY key for your VCR.
Code Retrieval
Once you’ve programmed the remote to control your devices, you
may want to record the codes for future reference. If you used the
Direct Code Entry method, this is easy. Just find the codes you
entered and make a note of them in the boxes below. If you used
one of the Code Search methods to program your remote or if
you used the Direct Entry method but don’t remember the code,
you will need to retrieve each device’s five-digit code. Retrieving
the actual code and writing it down will save you time if you ever
need to program the remote again. If the codes are recorded, you
can use the Direct Entry method to reprogram your remote to
control your devices, which is quick and easy.
1. Press and hold the device key (TV,
SAT•CBL, STREAM, DVD•BLU RAY)
whose code you wish to retrieve.
The POWER key illuminates. Keep
pressing the device key.
2. While holding the device key down,
press and hold the INFO key. The POWER key turns off. After
holding down both keys for three seconds, the POWER key
turns back on.
3. Release both keys. The POWER key remains on.
4. Starting with the number 1 key, press and release each
number key on the keypad in the following order: 1-9, then
0. The number that causes the POWER key to blink is the first
number of the code. As you find each number of the code,
write it down for future reference.
Note:
All TV codes begin with the number 1; all VCR and DVR
codes begin with the number 2; all DVDs, the number 3; all
audio devices, the number 4; and all satellite receivers, cable
boxes, streaming players and DTV converters, the number 5.
5. Repeat step 4 until you have retrieved all five numbers in the
code. After the fifth number is retrieved, the POWER key
blinks briefly, then turns off.
TIP:
To exit the Code Retrieval Mode at any time, press the EXIT
key.
Note:
If you press an invalid key during the Code Retrieval
process, the remote will not respond. If you do not press a valid
Code Retrieval key (TV, SAT•CBL, STREAM, DVD•BLU RAY,
INFO, EXIT), Code Retrieval times out after 15 seconds. The
POWER key blinks four times, and then turns off.
IMPORTANT
Because this remote controls more than one device, you must
first “tell” the remote which device you wish to operate. That
means, if you wish to operate your TV, you must first press the
TV key to put the remote in the TV Mode. The remote stays
in that device mode until you press a different device key.
For example, if your remote is in TV Mode and you want to
operate the DVD player, you must press the DVD•BLU RAY key
to change device modes.
Problem: The remote does not operate your device.
• Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the
corresponding device key (TV, SAT•CBL, STREAM, DVD•BLU RAY).
This tells the remote which device to operate.
• Remove any obstacles between the remote and the device. Make
sure you’re aiming the remote at the device’s IR sensor.
• Make sure the batteries are fresh and are properly installed. Replace
the batteries with two new AAA batteries, if necessary (see the
Battery Installation section).
Problem: The remote can’t be programmed to operate your
device.
• If you are testing the remote while programming it, you may be too
far away from the device or at a wrong angle. There must be an
unobstructed path between the remote and the IR sensor on the
device. Move closer and make sure you point the remote at the device
you’re trying to control.
• If you’re using the Direct Entry programming method to enter the
codes for your brand and the unit is still not functioning properly, try
the auto, brand, or manual search method.
• To control combo units, like TV/VCRs or TV/DVDs, you must
program the individual corresponding device keys to control each
part of the combo unit. Once programmed successfully, the TV key
controls the TV functions, and the DVD•BLU RAY key controls the
VCR or DVD functions.
• Make sure the batteries are fresh and are properly installed.
Problem: The remote doesn’t perform commands properly.
• Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the
corresponding device key (TV, SAT•CBL, STREAM, DVD•BLU RAY).
This tells the remote which device to operate.
• Make sure device is ready (for example, the DVD player has a disc
loaded).
• You may have pressed an invalid key for the mode the remote is in.
• If you’re trying to enter a channel number directly, try pressing
the ENTER key after entering the channel number as this is a
requirement of certain models and brands.
• There is a possibility that a programmed code may only be able
to control some of your device features (for example, only turns a
device on and off). To confirm that the device key is programmed
with the correct code for maximum functionality, test the device.
Attempt to control a variety of the device’s functions with the
remote. If some of the features of your devices don’t work, try
programming the remote with a different code in the list using the
Direct Code Entry Method, until you find the code that allows the
remote to control the majority of your device’s functions. Different
codes can provide different levels of functionality.
Problem: The POWER key does not light when you press a key.
• You may have pressed an invalid key for the mode the remote is in.
• Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the
corresponding device key (TV, SAT•CBL, STREAM, DVD•BLU RAY).
This tells the remote which device to operate.
• Make sure the batteries are fresh and are properly installed. Replace
the batteries with two new AAA batteries, if necessary (see the
Battery Installation section).
Problem: The remote will not change channels on device.
• Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the
corresponding device key (TV, SAT•CBL, STREAM, DVD•BLU RAY).
This tells the remote which device to operate.
• Press the ENTER key after you enter a channel number.
• Remove any obstacles between the remote and the device. Make
sure to aim the remote at the IR sensor on the device.
