Chapter 3: Using the remote control
Searching and sampling the code of a
device (8500)
If you do not know the device code for a particular device, you
can cycle the remote control through the available codes for
that device mode and sample the functions to find the code that
operates the target device. The keys available to be sampled,
provided they are applicable to that mode, are p, 1, z, <,
and S. Invalid keys will be ignored while in program mode.
To cycle through each available device code and
sample its functions:
1 Press the appropriate mode select button on the remote
control.
2 While holding down E, press 8, 5, 0, 0. The remote
control will enter program mode.
3 Point the remote control at the target device and press p
(or other function buttons that are available to be
sampled).
4 If the device responds to the remote control:
Press E to store the device code. The mode select
button will blink two times and the remote control will
exit the program mode.
If the device does not respond to the remote control:
Press B, and then press p. Repeat this step until the
device responds to the remote control, and then press
E.
Note: When a search cycle is completed, the mode select
button will blink three times. The remote control will begin
to cycle through the available codes again. If no key is
pressed within 10 seconds during programming, the
remote control will exit the program mode and return to the
previous code.
Using the volume lock feature (8000)
By default (factory setting), the remote control’s volume keys
(z Z and W) are locked to the “TV” device mode.
The remote control will operate the TV’s volume, even when
“TV” is not the current device mode.
If you unlock the remote control’s volume keys, each device
mode will have its own volume (if the device ID has volume
data). The remote control will operate the volume of the device
associated with the current device mode.
If you lock the remote control’s volume keys to a specific
device mode, the remote control will operate the volume of the
device associated with the locked mode, even when the locked
mode is not the current device mode.
See “Using the remote control to operate your other devices”
on page 27.
To lock the remote control’s volume keys to a specific
mode (CABLE/SAT in this example):
1 Press CABLE/SAT.
2 While holding down the E button, press 8, 0, 0, 0.
3 Press z. The CABLE/SAT mode select button will blink
two times (locked).
The remote control’s volume keys will now operate the
volume of the device associated with the CABLE/SAT
mode, even when CABLE/SAT is not the current device
mode.
To unlock the remote control’s volume keys:
1 While holding down E, press 8, 0, 0, 0.
2 Press Z. The CABLE/SAT mode select button will blink
four times (unlocked).
Operational feature reset (8900)
This feature clears all programmed remote control features not
related to “Device code setup” and resets the volume lock to
the “TV” device mode.
To reset the remote control:
While holding down E, press 8, 9, 0, 0. The mode select
button will respond with four blinks.
