Chapter 3: Using the remote control
Programming the remote control
to operate your other devices
Your Toshiba TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate
most Toshiba devices. To program your TV remote control to
operate a non-Toshiba device (or a Toshiba device that it is not
preprogrammed to operate), follow the steps below. For details
on using the remote control to operate the device, see page 19.
1 In the remote control code table (- page 22), find the
code for your device. If more than one code is listed, try
each one separately until you find one that works.
2 Set the MODE SELECT Switch to the type of device you
are programming the remote control to operate —
CABLE/SAT (for a cable converter box or satellite
receiver), DVD (for a DVD player or HTIB [home theater
in a box]), or VCR (for a VCR or TV/VCR combo).
3 While holding down E, press the Channel Number
buttons to enter the 3-digit code for your device.
4 To test the code, turn on the device, point the remote
control at it, and press p. (Also see notes below.)
• If the correct code was entered, the device will turn off.
• If the device does not respond, repeat steps 1–4 using
another code.
• If the device does not respond to another code, you will
need to use the device’s original remote control.
5 Remember to set the MODE SELECT Switch back to
“TV” to control the TV.
6 For future reference, write down the code(s) you used:
Note:
• In addition to POWER, confirm that all necessary keys on the
TV remote control operate your device. If some keys are not
operational, repeat the device code setup using another
code (if other codes are listed for your device). If, after trying
all listed codes, the necessary keys do not operate your
device, use the device’s original remote control.
• Every time you change the batteries, you will need to
reprogram the remote control.
• Some newer VCRs respond to either of two codes. These
VCRs have a switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.” If your VCR has
this kind of switch and does not respond to the codes for
your VCR brand, set the switch to the other position (“VCR1”
or “VCR2”) and reprogram the remote control.
