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 confi rm 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 fi nd the code
that allows the remote to control the majority of your device’s functions. Different
codes can provide different levels of functionality.

Your universal remote requires two AAA alkaline batteries (not included).
To install the batteries:
1. Remove the battery compartment cover.
2. Insert the batteries, matching the (+) and (–) marks
inside the battery compartment.
3. Push the battery cover back into place.
Battery Precautions:
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) or rechargeable (nickel-cadmium)
batteries.
• Always remove old, weak or worn-out batteries promptly and recycle or
dispose of them in accordance with Local and National Regulations.
To u se thi s uni versal remot e with your home entert ainme nt sys tem, fi rst you need
to program it to control your devices. There are two ways you can program the
universal remote to operate your devices:
The Brand Code Search searches through the codes for select brands of
devices.
The Direct Code Entry lets you enter a code from the accompanying code
list for your brand of device.
Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality
1. Try a variety of the device’s functions with the remote. If some device
features don’t work, go to the next step to try a different code.
2. Repeat the Brand Code Search from the beginning. When the device turns
off for the fi rst time, don’t press the OK/ENTER key, which would store the
same code. Instead, with the unit now off, continue to press the GUIDE key
repeatedly until the unit turns back on.
3. Once the unit turns back on, you have found another code that operates the
device. Press the OK/ENTER key.
4. Test the key’s functionality again by attempting to control a variety of the
device’s functions. If the code that has been stored controls the majority of
the device’s functions, programming is complete. If the code stored does not
give maximum functionality, try another code.
Brand Code Search
The Brand Code Search goes through only the codes for one of the select brands
listed in the accompanying code list. If your brand of device is listed, this search
can be very quick and easy.
IMPORTANT: The Brand Code Search works for TVs, satellite receivers and cable
boxes. The Brand Code Search does not work for programming this remote to
control digital converter boxes and streaming players. Use direct code entry for
these kinds of devices.
1. Manually turn on the device you want to control.
3. Press and hold the device key you want to program
(the POWER key illuminates). While you’re holding
down the device key, use your other hand to press
and hold the remote’s POWER key at the same time
(the POWER key turns off).
2. Find your device’s brand in the Brand Code list
section of the accompanying code list. Circle the
number for your brand and keep the list handy.
4. Wait until the POWER key comes on and stays on.
Then release both keys.
5. Look at the numbers you circled for your device’s
brand code. Press those numbers on the remote
keypad.
NOTES: Throughout the programming of each key, be sure to keep the remote
pointed at the IR sensor of the device you are currently programming the
remote to control.
Test the remote with the device to make sure the device key is programmed
with the correct code for maximum functionality. If some features don’t work,
try a different code. See the “Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality”
section below for more information.
During the Brand Code Search, the remote ignores keypresses that aren’t part
of the search. Search keys are VOL+, CH+, POWER, and 0.
The search times out after two minutes (the POWER key blinks four times and
the last programmed code under that device key is retained).
The POWER key blinks four times when the remote has gone through all the
codes. The remote exits the Brand Code Search. If your device hasn’t turned
off yet, try direct code entry..
Direct Code Entry
Direct Code Entry lets you enter a code from the accompanying code list for your
brand of device.
TIPS: Each device key is associated with a type of device—the TV is preset to
search for TVs, SAT•CBL•STREAM for satellite receivers, digital TV converters,
cable boxes, or streaming players.
1. Manually turn on the device you want to control.
3. Press and hold the device key you want to program
(the POWER key comes on).
While you’re holding down the device key, use your
other hand to enter the fi rst fi ve-digit code for your
brand in the code list (the POWER key goes off after
the fi rst digit).
2. Find the Code List that came with the remote. Locate
the section for the type of device you’re trying to
program, and fi nd your brand in that section. Circle
the codes for your brand and keep them handy.
NOTES : Test the remote with the device to make sure the device key is
programmed with the correct code for maximum functionality. If some features
don’t work, try a different code in the list.
Remember to enter the code for future reference in the box provided in the
Code Retrieval section of this manual.
If you release the device key any time during the Direct Code Entry procedure,
the POWER key blinks four times and the process is exited. The last
programmed code under the device key is retained.
4. When you’ve fi nished entering the fi ve-digit code, keep holding down the
device key and look at the POWER key.
Is the POWER key illuminated?
YES: You’re done! You’ve programmed this device key.
NO, it blinked four times and turned off: You have either entered a
code number that is not in the code lists or missed a step in the code entry
procedure. Try step 3 again.
5. Now test the device with your TV on. Try the the VOL+,CH+ and the digit “0”.
If these work correctly, then you have the correct code . If not go to step 3
and try the next code in the list.
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 fi nd 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 fi ve-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 and all satellite receiver, cable box,
streaming players, tand digital TV converters, the number 5.
To exit the Code Retrieval Mode at any time, press the EXIT•BACK 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•STREAM, EXIT•BACK), Code Retrieval times out after 15 seconds. The
POWER key blinks four times, and then turns off.
IMPORTANT
Because this remote controls more than one device, you must fi rst “tell”
the remote which device you wish to operate. That means, if you wish to
operate your TV, you must fi rst 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
SAT•CBL•STREAM you must press the key to change device modes.

TIPS: Each device key is associated with a type of device—the TV is preset to
search for TVs, SAT•CBL•STREAM for satellite receivers, digital TV converters,
cable boxes, or streaming players.
If the original remote control that came with your device has separate ON and OFF
keys (instead of a single POWER key), the Brand Code Search might not work with
that device. Try the Direct Code Entry method described later in this manual.
To exit without saving a new code at any point in the Brand Code Search, press
EXIT•BACK key.
This remote control gives you access to up to 10 of your favorite satellite or

set up your TV channels. Jumping back and forth between them might get
confusing.
NOTE: The Preset Channel feature works independently of Channel Lock
feature. When using Preset Channel feature please follow the “ Using Your
Preset Channels” section of this user guide.
If you’ve programmed the SAT•CBL•STREAM
key with a streaming media player, the following
number keys have special functionality with that
device:
1, 2, 3, and 4 serve as arrow keys in the player’s
on-screen menus (right, left, up, and down,
respectively).
9 serves as a HOME key for the player.
EXIT•BACK goes back one screen in the player’s
menus.
