1. Make sure the component you want to program the remote control to operate
is on (let’s use a VCR in this example).
2. Press the component button on the remote that corresponds to the component
you want to program the remote to operate (in this example, the VCR1 button).
Note: You can’t program the TV or DIRECTV component buttons. If you want
to program this remote control to operate another TV or a satellite system,
press the AUX button (or VCR1, VCR2, DVD, AUD) and choose TV or SAT from
the list that appears in the remote’s display – see step 5 below.
3. Press and hold (the backlight button) until CODE SET appears in the
remote’s display window.
4. Press the down arrow button until you reach MAN SEARCH in the remote’s
display window. Then press the OK button.
5. Press the down arrow button to scroll to the desired component (TV, VCR,
TAPE, LDP, DAT, DVD, CD, TUNER, AMP, HOME, MISC, PHONO, CAB, SAT
VIDEO). In this example, press the down arrow button until VCR appears in
the remote control’s display.
6. Press the OK button (a code appears in the remote’s display).
7. Press OK to send this code to the VCR. Make sure the remote is in a position
where a signal can be sent to the component. Look at the component you’re
programming the remote to operate (in this example, the VCR). When the VCR
turns off, the remote has found the right code.
• If the component turns off, press OK to save the code (SUCCESS appears in
the remote’s display window followed by EXIT SETUP ).
• If the component stays on, press the arrow down button to try the next
code. Press the OK button. Continue until the component turns off
(meaning the correct code has been located).
