Teach the RF/IR Conversion Codes for the Master Keys, Function Keys, and System Off Key

Note: Every RF command sent by the IntelliControl identifies the last Master Key pressed by the end user. For example; if the IntelliControl was busy executing the turn on sequence for the DVD and the end user pressed the Master Key for the VCR, the Test LED would light red to indicate that the system was busy.

Additionally, the command would be ignored by the system, but the remote’s backlighting would indicate that the system was playing the VCR, however the system is actually playing the DVD. Any key press will correct the problem! The end user does not have to press the VCR Master Key again.

Thus, the IntelliControl issues 331 different RF commands. You must teach the VCR’s “Play” key on your IR learning device the “Play” command which corresponds to the Master Key page dedicated to the VCR in the IntelliControl system. Remember to do the same with “Volume Up” and “Volume Down”.
