Care and Maintenance
• Keep the remote dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.
• Use and store the remote only in normal temperature environments.
• Handle the remote gently and carefully. Don’t drop it.
• Keep the remote away from dust and dirt.
• Wipe the remote with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.
• Modifying or tampering with the remote’s internal devices can cause malfunction
and invalidate its warranty.
Assigning the AUX1 and AUX2 Keys
To program the AUX1 or AUX2 keys, you must rst assign them to a device type.
1. Press and hold the AUX1 or AUX2 key. The ON•OFF key turns on.
2. While holding down the AUX1 or AUX2 key, press and release the number
key on the keypad for the device you want to control (see the chart below).
The ON•OFF key turns off.
Code Retrieval
Once you’ve programmed the remote to control your devices, you may want to
record the codes for future reference. If you used the Direct Code Entry method,
this is easy. Just find the codes you entered and make a note of them in the
boxes below. If you used one of the Code Search methods to program your
remote or if you used the Direct Entry method but don’t remember the code, you
will need to retrieve each device’s five-digit code. Retrieving the actual code and
writing it down will save you time if you ever need to program the remote again.
If the codes are recorded, you can use the Direct Entry method to reprogram
your remote to control your devices, which is quick and easy.
TIPS: All TV codes start with the number 1; all VCR and DVR codes start with
the number 2; all DVD player codes, the number 3; all audio device codes, the
number 4; and all satellite receiver, cable box, and digital TV converters, the
number 5.
To exit the Code Retrieval Mode at any time, press the CLEAR key.
If you press an invalid key during the Code Retrieval process, the remote will
not respond. If you do not press a valid Code Retrieval key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC,
DVD, DVR, AUDIO, VCR, AUX1, AUX2, INFO, CLEAR), Code Retrieval times out
after 15 seconds. The ON•OFF key blinks four times, and then turns off.
1. Press and hold the device key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, AUDIO, VCR, DVR,
AUX1 or 2) whose code you wish to retrieve. The ON•OFF key illuminates.
Keep pressing the device key.
2. While holding the device key down, press and hold the INFO key. The
ON•OFF key illumination turns off. After holding down both keys for three
seconds, it turns back on.
3. Release both keys. The ON•OFF key remains illuminated.
4. Starting with the number 1 key, press and release each number key on
the keypad in the following order: 1-9, then 0. The number that causes the
ON•OFF key to blink is the rst number of the code. As you nd each number
of the code, write it down for future reference. Then start with the number 1
key again.
5. Repeat step 4 until you have retrieved all five numbers in the code. After the
fth number is retrieved, the ON•OFF key blinks briey, then turns off.
IMPORTANT
Because this remote controls more than one device, you must rst “tell” the
remote which device you wish to operate. That means, if you wish to operate
your TV, you must first press the TV key to put the remote in the TV Mode. The
remote stays in that device mode until you press a different device key. For
example, if your remote is in TV Mode and you want to operate the DVD player,
you must press the DVD key to change device modes.
Problem: The remote does not operate your device.
• Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding device
key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, DVR, AUDIO, VCR, AUX1, AUX2). This tells the remote
which device to operate.
• Remove any obstacles between the remote and the device. Make sure you’re aiming
the remote at the device’s IR sensor.
• Make sure the batteries are fresh and are properly installed. Replace the batteries
with two new AA batteries, if necessary (see the Battery Installation section).
Problem: The remote can’t be programmed to operate your device.
• If you are testing the remote while programming it, you may be too far away from the
device or at a wrong angle. There must be an unobstructed path between the remote
and the IR sensor on the device. Move closer and make sure you point the remote at the
device you’re trying to control.
• If you’re using the Direct Entry programming method to enter the codes for your
brand and the unit is still not functioning properly, try the auto, brand, or manual
search method.
• To control combo units, like TV/VCRs or TV/DVDs, you must program the
individual corresponding device keys to control each part of the combo unit. Once
programmed successfully, the TV key controls the TV functions, and the DVD or VCR
key controls the DVD or VCR functions.
• Make sure the batteries are fresh and are properly installed.
Problem: The remote doesn’t perform commands properly.
• Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding device
key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, DVR, AUDIO, VCR, AUX1, AUX2). This tells the remote
which device to operate.
• Make sure device is ready (for example, the DVD player has a disc loaded).
• You may have pressed an invalid key for the mode the remote is in.
• If you’re trying to enter a channel number directly, try pressing the ENTER key after
entering the channel number as this is a requirement of certain models and brands.
• There is a possibility that a programmed code may only be able to control some of
your device features (for example, only turns a device on and off). To confirm that
the device key is programmed with the correct code for maximum functionality, test
the device. Attempt to control a variety of the device’s functions with the remote. If
some of the features of your devices don’t work, try programming the remote with a
different code in the list using the Direct Code Entry Method, until you find the code
that allows the remote to control the majority of your device’s functions. Different
codes can provide different levels of functionality.
Problem: The ON•OFF key does not illuminate when you press a key.
• You may have pressed an invalid key for the mode the remote is in.
• Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding device
key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, DVR, AUDIO, VCR, AUX1, AUX2). This tells the remote
which device to operate.
• Make sure the batteries are fresh and are properly installed. Replace the batteries
with two new AA batteries, if necessary (see the Battery Installation section).
Problem: The remote will not change channels on device.
• Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding device
key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, DVR, AUDIO, VCR, AUX1, AUX2). This tells the remote
which device to operate.
• Press the ENTER key after you enter a channel number.
• Remove any obstacles between the remote and the device. Make sure to aim the
remote at the IR sensor on the device.
Problem: The device’s menu does not appear on the TV screen.
• Make sure you have connected the device to your TV properly and selected the correct
input. (See your devices’ Owner’s Manuals for proper connection procedures.)
• Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding device
key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, DVR, AUDIO, VCR, AUX1, AUX2). This tells the remote
which device to operate.
• Menu access isn’t supported for all brands. You may need to use your original
remote control to access menu functions for some devices.
Problem: The Learning process cannot be completed successfully.
• Replace batteries in both the learning remote and the original remote.
• Make sure the distance between the remotes is approximately 2 inches.
• Do not conduct the Learning process near an incandescent lamp.
• The learning remote’s memory capacity may be full (20 Learned commands for
each of the six modes).
• The original remote may not be compatible with the Learning procedure.

Backlighting
Backlight illumination helps you see the remote control keys better in the dark.
You can turn backlight illumination on or off by pressing the backlight key ( ).
Backlighting stays on as long as keys are being pressed and turns off six seconds
after the last keypress. Once the backlight time has timed out, any keypress will
reactivate it. If the backlight illumination is on, and you press the backlight key,
the backlight turns off.
Transport Key Punch-Through
Transport Key Punch Through allows the transport keys (REVERSE, PLAY,
FORWARD, RECORD, STOP and PAUSE), when pressed in TV, SAT, CABLE and
AUDIO modes, to “punch through” to VCR, DVR or DVD/CD mode, whichever
was accessed last. Transport Key Punch-Through occurs automatically and
allows you to use the transport keys without exiting the current mode. For
example, if the transport keys were last used in DVD mode and accessed again
after pressing the TV key, they will punch through to the DVD. The default
Transport Key Punch Through is set to DVD for TV, SAT, CABLE and AUDIO.
Note: Transport Key Punch Through does not occur in cases where the
component code has its own transport key data, such as a satellite receiver with
a built-in DVR.
Sleep Timer
This feature automatically turns off your TV at a duration you choose from 1 to 99
minutes. The Sleep Timer only works if you have found a code that controls your
TV. The timing mechanism for the Sleep Timer is built into your universal remote
control.
To program the Sleep Timer:
1. Press the TV key.
2. Press and hold the SLEEP key for three seconds. The ON•OFF key turns on.
Then release the SLEEP key.
3. Using the number keys, enter the desired time in minutes (from 1-99
minutes). To set the timer to a number under 10 minutes, press 0 and then
the desired number (e.g., 05 for ve minutes). The ON•OFF key blinks with
each keypress.Once the second number is entered, the ON•OFF key turns off
and the Sleep Timer is now set.
Any keypress other than the number keys is ignored. If the sleep time is not
entered within 15 seconds after pressing the SLEEP key, the ON•OFF key
blinks four times, indicating the attempt to program the Sleep Timer has been
unsuccessful.
4. Leave the remote aimed at the TV. Once the Sleep Timer is set, you can
continue to use the remote without affecting the Sleep Timer. However, the
remote must be pointed at the TV to activate the Sleep Timer.
Note: If the ON•OFF key is pressed, the Sleep Timer is canceled.

Before First-Time Learning
Before you start learning keys for the first time, clear any stored learning
information that might be in the remote. This lets you begin with a clean slate.
1. Press and hold the CLEAR key (the ON•OFF key illuminates). While you’re
holding down the CLEAR key, use your other hand to press and hold the
ON•OFF key (the ON•OFF key illumination turns off).
2. Wait until the ON•OFF key comes on and stays on. Then release both keys.
The remote is now in the Master Clear mode.
3. Press the SELECT/OK key to conrm the Clear operation. The ON•OFF
key remains on for 2 seconds, then turns off. All Learned functions for all
components are now cleared; all other programming remains intact.
Learning From Your Original Remotes
1. Place your original remote and the learning remote on a at surface as
shown below. Point the top of your original remote at the base of the
learning remote. The IR LED on the original remote should be pointing
directly at the learning remote’s learning sensor, located on the bottom of
the remote. The remotes should be 1–4 inches apart.
Learning
Codes from the Code Lists include basic functionality for each component they
control. Once you have programmed in the code for your specific component,
you can customize the universal remote to include certain functions from your
original remote(s) that were not embedded in the preset code. Your universal
remote has the ability to learn and store commands from your original remote(s)
under the mode(s) of your choice. The universal remote can store up to 34 key
commands for each original remote.* Only one original remote can be learned
under any one mode (e.g., the universal remote can learn commands for one TV
remote, one VCR remote, etc.).
* Some learned signals require more memory than others. In these cases,
fewer key commands can be learned.
2. On the learning remote, press and hold the device
key you want to use the learned function in (the
ON•OFF key turns on and remains on). While
holding down the device key, use your other hand
to press and hold the RECORD key (the ON•OFF key
illumination turns off).
3. Wait until the ON•OFF key turns on and stays on.
Then release both keys. The remote is now in
Learning mode.
4. On the learning remote, press the key you want to
use for the learned function. The illuminated ON•OFF
key blinks once, then remains on.
5. On the original remote, press and hold the key you
want to teach to the universal remote. Wait until the
ON•OFF key on the learning remote blinks once, then
release the key on the original remote. The learning
remote has finished learning this key.
Macros
The Macro feature lets you execute a sequence of commands with one keypress.
Any sequence of commands that you regularly perform (up to a maximum of 20
per macro) can be stored as a Macro under one of the 1–6 number keys.
Programming a Macro
Important: Before you start, make sure your remote is programmed to control
your devices and that you’ve learned all the keys you want to learn from your
original remotes.
Note:
Volume Punch-Through does not occur in cases where the component
code has its own volume/mute controls, such as some satellite receivers.
Advanced Punch-Through
Volume Punch-Through, as described above, occurs automatically. If you want to
specify whether Volume Punch-Through is directed to the TV or AUDIO while in
SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, DVR or VCR modes, follow the steps below.
Note: This option can also be enabled for the AUX1 or AUX2 key, if it is
programmed with a VCR, DVR, DVD, CD, SAT or TV code.
1. Press and hold the key whose volume commands you want to send to the
TV or audio device. The ON•OFF key turns on.
2. While holding down the device key, press and hold the VOL up key. The
ON•OFF key turns off.
3. After holding down both keys for 3 seconds, the ON•OFF key turns on and
stays on. Release both keys.
4. Press and release the device key you want the Volume Punch-Through to be
directed to from the selected mode (TV, AUDIO or AUX key). The ON•OFF
key ashes.
Note: The device key pressed in step 4 must be programmed with a TV or
AUDIO component. If an invalid key is pressed, the ON•OFF key ashes four
times, then turns off.
Important: Once you have programmed any device with a specied Volume
Punch-Through, the Volume Punch-Through for all other devices defaults to
AUDIO. If you do not want other components’ Volume Punch-Through to default
to AUDIO, you must manually program them, using steps 1-4.
Using a Macro
1. Press the MACRO key.
2. Press the number key assigned to the Macro sequence you want to execute.
The ON•OFF key blinks once, then remains on.
As the remote sends each command in the Macro sequence, the ON•OFF key
blinks once. After the remote sends the last command in the Macro sequence,
the ON•OFF key illumination turns off.
An Example Macro
This example shows an “all on” macro for a home theater with a TV, DVD
player, and satellite receiver.

Learning Tips
• Make sure the batteries in both the learning and original remote(s) are fresh.
• Incandescent or low-energy light can cause interference with IR
transmissions. When using the Learning function, keep remotes at least
three feet away from such light sources.
• Make sure the original remote is in the same mode as the universal remote
so that the Learned key is assigned to the correct mode.
• You cannot learn any commands under the MACRO, SLEEP, or LIGHT keys.
• If you use the VOL+/- keys to learn new functions, the volume control will not
adjust the volume in the Volume Punch Through mode.
• To exit Learning mode at any time, press the SLEEP key.
• The remote exits Learning mode if it has run out of memory to store new
learned keys.
• To ensure that your units are compatible and to increase your familiarity
with the Learning process, experiment by learning two or three keys initially.
Then, carry out a Master Clear before learning all the desired functions from
your original remote.
-
Note: If a problem occurs during the Learning process, the illuminated ON•OFF
key blinks four times, but the unit remains in the Learning mode. If this occurs,
adjust the distance between the remotes slightly and repeat from step 4.
6. Tolearnanotherkeyforthisdevicemode: Repeat steps 4 and 5 for the
key you want to learn.
Tolearnkeysinadifferentdevicemode: Repeat steps 2–5 for the next
device mode.
Tosavelearnedkeysandexitlearning: press the SLEEP key on the
learning remote.
Volume Punch-Through
Volume Punch-Through allows the VOL and MUTE keys, when pressed in
SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, DVR or VCR modes, to “punch through” to either TV
or AUDIO, whichever was accessed last. Volume Punch-Through occurs
automatically and allows you to control the volume without exiting the current
mode. (If the AUX1 or AUX2 key has been programmed with a TV or AUDIO
code, volume can punch through to these devices as well.)
-
1. Press and hold the MACRO key until the ON•OFF key
turns on and remains on. The remote is now in Macro
Programming mode.
2. Press the number key (1–6) you want to use for this
macro. The ON•OFF key blinks once, then remains on.
Note: If you do not press a macro number key within 15
seconds (or if you press a macro number key that already
has a macro programmed), the ON•OFF key blinks four
times and turns off. The remote exits macro programming
mode, and no changes are made to existing Macros.
-
3. Press the device key for the rst device you use in the macro. The ON•OFF
key blinks once and remains on.
4. Press each key you want to use in this Macro, in the exact order the keys
would be pressed if you were executing the sequence yourself. The ON•OFF
key blinks each time a key is pressed. Continue this process for all keys to be
included in the Macro sequence under the given component mode.
Important: If you are using different devices in this macro, you must press
each device key before you start pressing the keys for that device. For example,
if you’re turning on the TV, then playing a DVD, you must press the TV key,
then ON•OFF, then DVD, then PLAY.
5. Once you are finished programming the Macro, press the MACRO key to
save it. The ON•OFF key illumination turns off, and the Macro is now ready
to use.
Notes: To exit Macro programming at any time, press the CLEAR key. The
ON•OFF key blinks four times, then turns off. No changes are made to existing
Macros.
If you press a key that has a Learned function, the Learned function is assigned
to the Macro sequence.
If you program all 20 keys into a Macro, the Macro is automatically saved after
the 20th keypress.
The commands within a Macro must be programmed in sequential order. A
delay of 0.5 seconds is used between sending each command in a programmed
Macro sequence.
You cannot program a Macro within a Macro.
