6. Press and release the
ON·OFF
key
repeatedly until your component turns
off. Each time you press the
ON·OFF
key,
the illuminated component name blinks,
and the next code in the list is sent. This
process continues until all of the codes in
the Code Lists have been searched. If
your component turns off, you have
found the correct code. (If it cycles
through and the illuminated component
name blinks four times and turns off, all
codes have been searched. The Manual
Code Search method is exited.)
Because there are so many codes,
you may have to press the
ON·OFF
key
many times—possibly up to 200 times.
7. Once you have found the correct code,
you must save the new code by pressing
and releasing the
STOP
key. The
illuminated component name turns
off. You must press the
STOP
key to
save the code or the correct code will
not be stored!
8. When you press the
STOP
key, the code
is stored.
9. Be sure to retrieve the code your remote
programmed by finishing the Code
Retrieval process found on page 10.

TIP
Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality
To confirm that the component key is programmed with the correct
code for maximum functionality, it is necessary to test the component.
If some of the features of your component do not work, different codes
in the list can be tried until you find the code that allows the remote to
control the majority of your component’s functions. Different codes
can provide different levels of functionality. Follow these steps to test
for maximum functionality.
1. Once the code has been stored (see Manual Code Search and Entry
Method on page 6), use the remote to attempt to control a variety of
the component’s functions. If the code that has been stored controls
the majority of the component’s functions, programming
is complete. If the code stored does not give maximum
functionality, you will want to try another code.
2. In that case, repeat the Manual Code Search and Entry Method
from step 1. When the component turns off for the first time, do not
press the
STOP
key, which would store the code. Instead, with the
unit now off, continue to press the
ON·OFF
key repeatedly until the
unit turns back on. Once the unit turns back on, you have found
another code that operates the component. Press the
STOP
key.
3. Test the functionality again by attempting to control a variety of the
component’s functions. If the code that has been stored controls the
majority of the component’s functions, programming is complete. If
the code stored does not give maximum functionality, you will
want to try another code.
4. Repeat the Manual Code Search and Entry Method from step 1.
Each time a code turns the component on or off, you have found a
code that operates the remote and needs to be tested for maximum
functionality. Continue through the code lists, cycling through the
codes you have already tried, until you find one that offers
maximum functionality.
Auto Code Search and Entry
The Auto Code Search and Entry Method enables the remote to
automatically search through all the codes in the Code Lists for the
one that operates your component. Example used is for TV component
set up.
Note:
The Auto Code Search method may take a long time because
the remote searches through all of the codes in its memory for the
code that operates your component. Therefore, if your brand is listed
in the Brand Codes or the Code Lists, first try the Brand Code Search
or the Direct Code Entry method described on pages 4-6.
To exit without saving at any point in the Auto
Code Search, press and release the
GO BACK
key.
!
TIP
1. Manually turn on the component you
want the remote to control (TV, VCR,
DVD, satellite receiver or cable box).
2. Press and hold the component key (
TV,
DVD, VCR·AUX, SAT·CBL
) you wish to
program. (To program the
VCR·AUX
key
to control a component other than a VCR,
see page 7.) The illuminated component
name turns on and remains on.
3. While holding the component key down,
press and hold the
ON·OFF
key. The
illuminated component name turns off.
4. After holding down both keys for three
seconds, all of the component names
illuminate and stay on.
7. When your component turns off, you
know the correct code is in the last block
of 10 codes sent. Press and release the
REVERSE
key. Wait two seconds to see if
your component turns on again. If your
component does not respond, continue to
press the
REVERSE
key every two
seconds until your component turns on
again. This will isolate the correct code in
the last block of codes sent. Each time the
REVERSE
key is pressed, the illuminated
component name blinks.
Note:
If you accidentally press the
REVERSE
key after your component
responds, press and release the
FORWARD
key. Then, wait two seconds to see if your
component turns off again.
8. Once your component turns on, you have
found the correct code. You must save
the new code by pressing and releasing
the
STOP
key. The illuminated
component name turns off. You must
press the
STOP
key to save the code or
the correct code will not be stored!
9. When you press the
STOP
key, the code
is stored.

5. Release both keys. The name of the current component remains lit,
while all other component names turn off.
Note:
If you press an invalid key during the Auto Code Search,
the remote does not respond. If you do not press a valid Auto Code
Search key (
TV, DVD, VCR·AUX, SAT·CBL, ON·OFF, GO BACK,
PLAY, REVERSE, STOP
), the search times out after two minutes.
When the search times out, the illuminated component name blinks
four times and turns off. The last programmed code under that
component key is retained.
Throughout the programming of each key, be sure to keep the
remote pointed at the IR sensor of the component you are currently
programming the remote to control.
6. Press and release the
PLAY
key, then wait five seconds to see if
your component turns off. If your component does not respond,
continue to press the
PLAY
key every five seconds until your
component turns off. Each time you press the
PLAY
key, the
illuminated component name blinks and a block of 10 codes are
sent to your component. This process continues until all of the
codes in the Code Lists have been searched. (If your component has
not turned off after all codes have been searched, the illuminated
component name blinks four times and turns off. The Auto Code
Search Entry method is exited.)
10.To confirm that the component key is programmed with the correct
code for maximum functionality, it is necessary to test the
component. If some of the features of your component do not work,
different codes in the list can be tried until you find the code that
allows the remote to control the majority of your component’s
functions. See the section entitled “Testing the Code for Maximum
Functionality” on page 8 for more information.
