You can create and program up to 50 Favorite Channel
buttons. Each favorite channel button can send out up to 10
commands with one button press.
1. Go to the SETUP mode by pressing both the MAIN and
ENT buttons simultaneously for three seconds.
2. Press the FAV button next to the LCD screen.
3. Press the device button that corresponds to the
component that your FAV channel will control. For
example, pressing the TV device will only send out the
type of code that the TV responds to. Pressing the Cable
device will only control the cable box.
4. Press the LCD button you will be assigning to the
favorite channel and enter the channel number you wish to
store in the FAVORITE channel button. You can store up to
10 digits.
5. Press the favorite channel button you selected in step 4
again to store the channel you programmed.

7. Once you complete the programming and wish to exit
the Learning mode, press the MAIN button. Exit from the
SETUP mode by pressing the MAIN button once again.
Tip: Only follow these instructions if you actually want a
code sent when changing devices. Some users do not want
a Device to send out a code when changing to that device.
For example: You program the AMP's TV input code on the
TV device, and are in the DVD device pages because you
are controlling the DVD player. The AMP's input is set to
DVD. Now you want to quickly adjust the picture on the TV.
If you push the TV Device button, it will change the input
on your AMP to TV and you will not be able to adjust the
picture for your DVD. In this case, it would be better not to
program a code to the TV device. However, your
circumstances may be different.
