Programming the Remote
The universal remote can be programmed to control most brands of
remote controllable VCRs, satellite receivers and cable boxes. The
remote is already programmed to control most RCA, GE and Proscan TVs,
VCRs, DVD players, laserdisc players and satellite receivers.
Modes of Operation
Because this universal remote can control
several different components (DVD
player, VCR, Cable Box, etc.) it uses
operational modes triggered by the
component buttons. For example if you
want the remote to control the TV, you
would press the TV button to put the
remote into TV mode before you could
control the TV.
