PROGRAM THE REMOTE
ABOUT PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE
The universal remote’s TV and SAT•CABLE buttons can be programmed to control other brands of remote controlled TVs, digital satellite receivers, and cable boxes. Your remote is already programmed to operate most ProScan, RCA, and GE televisions as well as digital satellite receivers.
The AUX button can be programmed to control a ProScan or RCA auxiliary component.
TESTING THE REMOTE
To determine whether the universal remote needs to be programmed, turn the component on (such as a TV), point the remote at the TV and press the TV button. Then press ON•OFF, CH +, or CH - to see if the TV responds to the remote commands. If the TV does not respond, then the remote control needs to be programmed.
PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE TO CONTROL A TV, SATELLITE RECEIVER, OR CABLE BOX
The remote features Code Search, a technology that largely automates the programming process. Follow these steps to program the remote to control a TV, digital satellite receiver, or cable box.
1.Turn on the component you want to control (TV, digital satellite receiver, or cable box).
2.Press and hold the button you want to program (TV or SAT•CABLE). While holding the component button, press and hold ON•OFF until the LED on the remote flashes, then release both buttons.
3.Press and release PLAY, then wait five seconds.
The remote searches through a set of codes. If, after five seconds, the component does not turn off, press PLAY again to tell the remote to search the next set of codes.
You can press FORWARD to individually search through the last ten codes that were transmitted when you pressed PLAY.
