How to Use the Remote After You’ve
Programmed It
Once the remote has been programmed successfully, you are ready to use it to operate your devices.
To Operate the Device:
1.Press the appropriate device button (SAT•CABLE, AUX, DVD) to set the remote to control the device.
2.Press ON•OFF to turn the device ON or OFF.
3.Use the remote buttons that apply to that device.
Notes: The remote control may not be compatible with all brands and models of devices.
Some of the remote buttons might operate differently for other devices, especially when you’re using another device’s menu system.
Modes of Operation
Because this universal remote can control several different devices (DVD player, VCR, cable box, etc.) it uses operational modes triggered by the device buttons. For example, if you want the remote control to operate the TV, press the TV button to put the remote into TV mode. If you want the remote to operate the DVD player, press the DVD button.
The button corresponding to the mode the remote is in lights up when you press any button that works in that mode. For example, if you’re in TV mode and you press the VOL+ button, the TV button lights up. This tells you that the command to increase the volume is being sent to the TV (and not the satellite receiver, for example).
