Using the Remote Control
Programming the Remote Control
The digital satellite receiver’s remote can be programmed to control most brands of remote controllable components. The remote is already programmed to control most RCA, GE and Proscan components; it may need to be programmed to control other manufacturers’ brands.
Testing the Remote Control
To determine whether the universal remote control needs to be programmed, turn a component on, such as a VCR, point the remote at the VCR, and press the VCR button. Then press ON•OFF or CH + or CH - to see if the VCR responds to the remote commands. If not, the remote needs to be programmed.
There are two ways to program the remote control: Automatic Code Search or Direct Entry.
Using Automatic Code Search
The following instructions can be used to program the remote to control many of the components connected to your TV. If you want to exit the automatic code search without programming any of your components, press the CLEAR button until the LED (red light) turns off.
1.Turn on the component you want to control (VCR, satellite receiver, etc.)
2.Press and hold the button you want to program. While holding the component button, press and hold ON•OFF until the LED on the remote control turns on, then release both buttons.
Note: The AUX button can only be programmed using direct code entry. See “Using Direct Entry,” later in this section, for details.
3.Point the remote at the component, press and release PLAY, then wait five seconds or until the LED stops flashing.
At this point the remote control is searching for the correct code to program. If, after five seconds, the component you want to control does not turn off, press and release PLAY again to tell the remote to search the next set of codes.
Continue pressing and releasing 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 cannot control that particular component.
If the component you want to control does turn off:
1.Press and release REVERSE, then wait two seconds. Repeat this step until the component turns back on.
2.To finish, press and hold STOP until the LED on the remote control turns off.
