i.LINK cautions
A red light blinks when I press a key,
but my home entertainment equipment
does not respond.
Make sure the remote control is aimed at your home entertainment
equipment and is not farther than 16.4 feet (5 meters) away.
The selected mode button (TV, DVD,
STB, PVR, Aux, VCR, Audio, or HP)
does not blink when a button on the
remote control is pressed.
Replace the batteries with three (3) AAA non-rechargeable batteries.
Symptom Remedy
The remote control does not control
home entertainment equipment, or the
commands are not working properly.
Try all listed codes for the equipment brands being set up. Make sure they
can be operated with an infrared remote control.
Changing channels does not work
properly.
If the original remote control required pressing Select to change channels,
press Enter on the remote control after entering the channel number.
CH +, and CH – do not work for your
RCA TV.
Due to RCA design (1983–1987), only the original remote control
operate these functions.
