In most cases, the keys on
this remote perform the same
functions as the keys on your
original remotes once you’ve
programmed this remote to
operate your components.
Many keys on this remote
have other functions as well.
Device keys (TV ,
SA T•CBL•DTC, DVD•VCR) put
the remote in the right mode
to control your device.
GUIDE and MENU put the
remote in menu/guide mode;
they also access the same
features as the keys on your
original remotes.
CLEAR exits remote
programming; it also
performs the same functions
as on your original remotes.
Arrow keys act as navigation
keys in device guides and
menu systems.
The INPUT and — (dash) key
has three functions: (1) it
toggles through all the video
sources connected to your
TV ; (2) when the remote is
in VCR mode, this button
toggles between VCR and
the TV input; (3) when you’re
entering digital channel
numbers directly , this button
lets you separate the main
channel number from the
sub-channel number (such
as 59.1).

1. Manually turn on the device you want to control.
2. Press and hold the device key you want to program. 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.
3. W ait until the remote’ s indicator
comes on and stays on. Then release
both keys.

TIP: Because there are so many codes, you may have to press
the POWER key many times—possibly hundreds of times.
NOTES
Throughout the programming of each key , keep the remote
pointed at the IR sensor of the device you are programming
the remote to control.
T est 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 “T esting the Code for Maximum Functionality”
section below for more information.
During the Manual Code Search, the remote ignores
keypresses that aren’ t part of the search.
The search times out after two minutes (the indicator blinks
four times and turns off, and the last programmed code
under that device key is retained).
The indicator blinks four times and turns off 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 a
different search method.
T esting the Code for Maximum Functionality
1. T ry a variety of the device’ s functions with the remote. If
some features of your devices don’ t work, go to the next
step to try a different code.
2. Repeat the Manual Code Search and Entry Method from
the beginning. When the device turns off for the rst time,
don’ t press the STOP key , which would store the same
code. Instead, with the unit now off, continue to press the
POWER 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 STOP key .
4. T est the key’ s functionality again by trying a variety of
functions. If the code controls the majority of the device’ s
functions, programming is complete. If the code stored
does not give maximum functionality , try another code.
Reassigning the DVD•VCR Key to Control a VCR The DVD•VCR key defaults to control a DVD player . If you want
the DVD•VCR key to control a VCR, you must reassign it.
1. Press and hold the DVD•VCR key. The indicator turns on.
Keep holding down the DVD•VCR key .
2. While holding down the DVD•VCR key, press and release
the number 2 key on the keypad. The indicator turns off.
3. R ele as e th e DV D•V CR k ey . T he indi cato r b li nks four ti mes and
then turns off. The DVD•VCR key is now set to control a VCR.
4. F oll ow the dir ect ions in the a uto, bra nd, dir ect ent ry , or
ma nual cod e s ea rch to p rog ram the DVD •V CR k ey f or your
VC R.
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 (e.g., if programming is lost when you change
the batteries). 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 .
1. Press and hold the device key
(TV , SA T•CBL•DTC, DVD•VCR)
whose code you wish to retrieve.
The indicator turns on. Keep
pressing the device key .
2. While holding the device key down, press and hold the
INFO key . The indicator turns off. After holding down both
keys for three seconds, the indicator turns back on.
3. Release both keys. The indicator remains on.
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 indicator to blink is the first
number of the code. As you find each number of the code,
write it down for future reference.
Note: All TV codes begin with the number 1; all VCR and DVR
codes begin with the number 2; all DVDs, the number 3; and
all satellite receivers, digital TV converters (DTC) and cable
boxes, the number 5.
5. Repeat step 4 until you have retrieved all five numbers in
the code. After the fifth number is retrieved, the indicator
blinks briefly , then turns off.
TIP: T o exit the Code Retrieval Mode at any time, press the
CLEAR key .
Note: 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 , SA T•CBL•DTC, DVD•VCR, INFO,
CLEAR), Code Retrieval times out after 15 seconds. The
indicator blinks four times, and then turns off.
IMPORT ANT
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 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 DVD player , you must
press the DVD•VCR key to change device modes.
Accessing Device Menus and Guides Many devices use on-screen menus and guides to help you
navigate through all their features and programming. While
this remote may not access every menu or guide system
of every device model, it does offer some menu and guide
functionality .
T o use a device’ s on-screen menu or guide system, you first
have to put the remote in Menu or Guide Mode.
1. Make sure your devices are turned on and your TV is set
to the correct device input (use the INPUT key to toggle
through inputs when in TV Mode.)
2. Press the device key whose menu you want to access.
4. Use the arrow keys to navigate through
the on-screen menu system or guide.
T o select the highlighted item, press the
OK key .
TIP: If the remote doesn’ t respond, check
to see that the indicator is still blinking.
The indicator times out after 20 seconds.
If this happens, just press the MENU or
GUIDE key again, and then retry your
selection.
Exiting Menu/Guide Mode The remote automatically times out of Menu or Guide Mode
after 20 seconds of inactivity (no keys being pressed). At that
time, the remote clears the displayed menu from the TV .
If you want to exit the Menu Mode yourself, press the
corresponding device key on the remote (TV , SA T•CBL•DTC,
DVD•VCR). The indicator turns off.
Problem: The remote does not operate your device.

turns a device on and off). T o confirm that the device key is
programmed with the correct code for maximum functionality ,
test the dev ice. Att empt to control a variet y of the device’ s
