If learning the first or second buttons for a Mode
results in continuous errors then try the following:
i. End the Learn session by pressing the
QUIT
button.
ii. Clear out the learned commands for that Mode.
iii. Check the IR transmitters are correctly aligned between
the two remotes.
iv. Adjust the distance between the two remotes to be
closer (e.g. half an inch) or a further away (e.g. 2 inches)
from each other.
v. Try learning the original remote for that Mode again.
If problems reoccur with the same button check the original
remote button being learned – does it transmit? Does it
operate the target device? Try learning that button under a
different clear
Mode. If it learns okay then it is likely to be
a different code type from the others and cannot be learned
under the same Mode.
Learning Notes
1. You cannot learn under the Setup or Macro button.
2. All learned commands for a Mode are deleted if the same
or a new 4-digit code is entered for that Mode (includes
Direct Code Entry, Code Search and Brand Search entries).
3. The Backlighting is turned off for Learning.

Tips On Learning
You can only learn one device type under any one Mode
button e.g. only learn TV codes under the
TV
Mode, VCR
codes under the
VCR
Mode, etc. If you are trying to learn
from a “Universal” remote, it might have more than one
code type stored under a Mode. Try learning from another
remote to see if there’s a problem with the type or brand of
remote you are trying to learn from.
a. Some functions from some types of remotes might not
be able to be learned.
b. No functions may be stored under the SETUP or
MACRO button.
c. Only one original device type can be learned per
individual Mode.
d.
Use fresh batteries for both the Learning Remote and
the Original Remote.
e.
Do not attempt to Learn directly under an incandescent
or low-energy light as these can cause interference with
the IR transmissions. Keep at least 3 feet away from
any such light sources.
f.
Perform a Master Clear (see page 23) before learning
and try learning 2 or 3 commands initially. Then carry
out a Master Clear before completely learning your
original remote’s commands.
g.
Carry out a “Mode Clear” before learning a Mode to make
sure there are no previously learned commands for that
Mode.
h.
Place the original remote end-to-end with the Learning
Remote so the IR transmitters on both remotes are
directly in line with each other. You may need to adjust
the height of either remote to achieve this.
i.
Keep the distance between the two remotes to
approximately 1 inch and do not move or change the
distance between the two remotes until you have
learned all the required buttons for that Mode.
j.
Avoid learning your original remote Volume/Mute
buttons unless you are sure these operate the same
device e.g. some original DVD remotes include TV
Volume/Mute button control and can be two different
types of code.
k.
Avoid learning your original remote VCR buttons unless
you are sure these operate the same device e.g. some
original TV remotes include VCR button control and can
be two different types of code.
l.
Learning a button can take up to 3 seconds. Do not release
the button being Learned until SUCCESS or LEARN
ERROR has been displayed.
