Programming the remote
control code
Your HP remote control is programmable. You can
program the remote control to operate other home
entertainment devices such as your VCR, DVD player,
audio receiver, or set-top box. Manufacturer codes for
compatible brands are listed at the end of this chapter.
If the brand of your device is not listed, see “Searching
for the device code” on page 69.
Programming the device code
The following steps describe how to program a device
button if your brand is listed.
1
Turn on the TV. Turn on the device you would like
to program.
2
Hold down a device button on the remote control
for 5 seconds until the device button blinks, and
then release the device button. The device button
blinks one more time and then remains lit.
3
Locate the brand of your device and manufacturer
codes (see the listing that follows).

Enter the first four-digit code. If the code is
accepted, the device button flashes twice. If the

Aim the remote control at the device, and press
the Power button once. The device should turn off.
If it does not respond, repeat steps 2 through 4,
trying each code for your brand until you find one
that works. If it still does not work, try searching
for the code; see “Searching for the device code”
on page 69.

Repeat steps 1 through 5 for each device you
want to control with the remote control.
