Programming the Remote to Operate Other Components

The universal remote can be programmed to operate most brands of remote controllable components. The remote is already programmed to operate most RCA, GE, and Proscan components.

Find Out If You Need to Program the Remote

To determine whether the universal remote needs to be programmed for your component, turn the component ON. For example, to program the remote for a TV, turn on the TV. Point the remote at the TV, and press the TV button. Then press ON¥OFF or CH + (channel up) or CH Ð (channel down) to see if the TV responds to the remote commands. If the component does not respond, the remote needs to be programmed.

CLEAR

REVERSE PLAY

STOP

You’ll use these buttons when you program the remote.

Important: The remote may not be compatible with all models of all brands of components. It also may not operate all functions of the remote that came with your component.

Tip

To stop the automatic code search without programming any components, press and hold CLEAR until the indicator on the remote turns off.

Programming the Remote

There are two ways to program the remote control:

¥automatic code search

¥direct entry

Using Automatic Code Search

The following instructions can be used to program the remote to operate each of your components. If you want to stop the automatic code search without programming any of your components, press CLEAR until the indicator on the remote turns off.

1.Turn on the component you want to operate (TV, Cable Box, etc.)

2.Press and hold the component button you want to program (TV, etc.). While holding the component button, press and hold ON¥OFF until the indicator on the remote turns on, then release both buttons.

3.Point the remote at the component. Press and release PLAY, then wait 5 seconds or until the indicator on the remote stops flashing.

At this point the remote is searching for the correct code to program. If, after 5 seconds, the component you want to operate does not turn off, press PLAY again to tell the remote to search the next set of codes.

Continue pressing PLAY until the component turns off or you have searched through all of the codes. There are 20 total sets of codes. If the component does not turn off after pressing PLAY 20 times, then the remote canÕt be programmed to operate that component.
