This remote controller features a learning function that allows you to program the remote codes of other remote
control units for more singular control of your home entertainment system. A number of commands can be
programmed for operation for when the remote controller is in DVD mode and when it is in Receiver mode. Please
follow the procedure in this section to program your remote controller to your preferences.

Programming procedure
The first step in the procedure is to determine whether the new command is to be learned in the DVD mode or in the Receiver mode.
Generally speaking, this should be decided by the command being learned. After deciding which mode is to be used, you will then transfer the
individual commands from the other remote control unit to the RC-438DV remote controller one at a time. Each command is then
programmed to one of the available buttons on the RC-438DV remote controller.
Even after the commands have been programmed, keep the other remote control unit in a safe place in the case that the programmed
commands should be lost (e.g., when the batteries run down). If the commands are lost, it will then be necessary to program them again.
Place the remote controller and the
other remote control unit of the
other component facing each other
at a distance of 5 to 15 cm (2 to 6
inches) apart.
While pressing and holding down
the desired MODE button (DVD or
RECVR) on the remote controller,
press SEARCH and then release
both buttons.
When you press and hold down the desired MODE
button, the SEND/LEARN indicator lights up. When
you press SEARCH, the indicator turns off. When
you release both buttons, the indicator lights up
again.
Press and release the button on the
remote controller to which you
want to transfer the new command.
The buttons that can be selected in this step depend
on the mode. Refer to the shaded areas in the
illustrations below to determine what buttons can be
programmed in each mode.
If you press the wrong button by mistake, press that
same button again. The SEND/LEARN indicator
flashes three times and the remote controller exits the
programming mode. When this is the case, start
again at step 1.
