CHECKING THE REMOTE ADDRESS

To read out the remote control address setting:

1.Press and hold the SAT mode button for three seconds until all mode buttons light. Then, let go.

2.Press the POUND (#) button twice while watching the SAT mode button.

3.Count the number of times the SAT mode button flashes. This number is the remote address. For example, if the SAT mode button flashes 6 times, this indicates the remote address is set to 6.

SETTING UP TO CONTROL OTHER DEVICES

To use the remote to control other devices (such as a TV, VCR, DVD player, tuner, or amplifier), you must first program it to control these other devices. You can do this by either following the instructions in Setting Up Using Device Code Tables on page 9, or the Setting Up Using Device Codes Scan procedure described on page 10.

COMBINATION DEVICES

If you are programming the remote to control a combination device, such as a TV/VCR or a TV/DVD, program the remote control in one mode, and then repeat the procedure in the other mode. For example, to program the remote to control a TV/VCR using code 748, follow the instructions to program the remote to control the TV using code 748, and then repeat the instructions for the VCR using the same code.

LIMITED MODE

You can program your remote control in Limited Mode to keep from accidentally changing the channel on your TV or VCR. When you use the remote to control your TV in Limited Mode, you will only be able to use the POWER, MUTE, and VOLUME buttons to control your TV. Also, when you use the remote to control your VCR in Limited Mode, you will only be able to use the POWER and VCR function buttons. The section Setting Up Using Device Codes Tables has a step that tells the remote control to go into Limited Mode.

Note: Limited Mode can not be used with audio amplifiers.
