Introduction
The Xanura remote control device is used to control not only the
Xanura installation, but also virtually any kind of audio or video
equipment. The remote control device replaces six existing remote
control devices so that all your equipment can now be controlled
with a single device. The remote control device also enables you to
control appliances and lighting anywhere in the house from a
remote location, providing they are connected to Xanura modules.
Even your PC can be controlled via the optional Mouse Remote
Receiver. Not only does the remote control device include all the
above options, it is also a user friendly, universal device. It is pre-
programmed at the factory for most equipment makes and models.
Once the equipment code has been entered the remote control
device is ready to be used. You can also add commands if
necessary. The remote control device can learn commands from
virtually any infrared remote control device.
Installing the batteries
1. Remove the cover from the battery compartment on the rear of
the remote control device
2. Insert four AAA batteries. Check the + and - signs in the battery
compartment.

SHIFT
Additional functions with pre-programmed codes. Your original
remote control device may include functions that are not available
on the keyboard of the Xanura remote control device. That does not
imply, however, that these functions are not available. They may be
accessible via the SHIFT key. If a function is missing press the
SHIFT key once and find the function by pressing the keys. The
LED is on all the time when in Shift mode. Press the Shift key
again to terminate SHIFT mode. The SHIFT key can also be used to
learn a new function for the relevant key.

Showview / V+
This key enables you to use the ShowView or VideoPlus function
on the video recorder (providing the recorder supports this
function). If the video does not include this function, the key will
provide access to the timer function or menu on the video recorder.
If the Showview / V+ key is used in modes other than the VCR
mode (TV, CBL, SAT, CD), it is often used for the Scan function.
This enables you, for example in TV mode, to switch automatically
between stations, or when listening to a CD to the first few
seconds of the tracks. The key ensures that a channel or number is
switched every 3 seconds. The Scan function can be terminated by
pressing any key. The Scan function stops automatically after 2
minutes.

Controlling your home using Xanura modules
The Xanura remote control device enables you to control virtually
any type of electrical appliance. In addition to the IR technology
used to control your TV, video, etc., this remote control device
incorporates Xanura HF technology, which makes it possible to
control lighting and appliances anywhere in the house from a
remote location.
The Xanura technology in your remote control device provides
access to a multitude of applications. To name but a few:
• Dimming and switching the lighting on and off while watching TV
• Switching on the coffee machine from the bedroom when you
