Programming the Remote to Operate Other
Components
The universal remote can be programmed to operate most brands of remote
controllable VCRs, DVD players, audio receivers, satellite receivers and cable boxes.
The remote is already programmed to operate most RCA, GE and Proscan VCRs, DVD
players, audio receivers and satellite receivers. The TV button cannot be programmed.
Find Out If You Need to Program the Remote
To determine whether the universal remote needs to be programmed, turn a
component ON, such as a VCR, point the remote at the VCR, and press the VCR
button. Then press ON•OFF or channel up or channel down to see if the VCR
responds to the remote commands. If not, the remote needs to be programmed.
How to Program the Remote
There are two ways to program the remote control: automatic code search and direct
entry. Instructions for both ways follow.
Use these buttons
when you

remote to operate
