4. While pressing the component button, enter a code from the code list.
5. Release the component button, and then press ON•OFF to see if the component responds to
the remote control commands. If it doesn’t, try pressing the component button and then
ON•OFF again.
6. If you get no response, repeat these steps using the next code listed for your brand, until the
component responds to the remote control commands.
Operating Other Components
Once the remote has been programmed successfully, you are ready to use it to operate your
components.
To Operate the Component:
1. Press the component button (TV, VCR1, SAT, VCR2, or AUX) to set the remote to control the
component.
2. Press ON•OFF to turn the component on or off.
3. Use the remote control buttons that apply to that component.
Modes of Operation
Because this universal remote can control several different components (DVD player, VCR, cable
box, etc.) it uses operational modes triggered by the component buttons. For example, if you want
the remote control to operate the TV, press the TV button to put the remote into TV mode. If you
want to play a videotape, press VCR1 then PLAY (pointing the remote at the VCR).
Controlling a Second Satellite Receiver
The remote can control two satellite receivers. From the Main menu, select System Setup, then
System Options, then Remote Setup. Then follow the on-screen instructions and enter the
appropriate code from the Satellite Receiver list at the end of this section. By default, the SAT
button is used to control the first satellite receiver and the AUX button is used to control the
second satellite receiver.
If your second receiver is an RCA, GE, or Proscan and you want to control it using the AUX
button, use code 5001. Code 5000 is used by the SAT button.
