Setting up a “Watch Movie” activity

The next activities, “Watch Movie” and “Watch Satellite” (or “Watch Cable”), are different from the “Hello” and “Good Night” activities. For these activities, you will use the Advanced Wizard. The Advanced Wizard gives you more options to customize these activities to fit exactly the way your home theater is set up. But you should gather a little information about your devices before setting up the device in the EZ-RC™ Remote Control Setup Wizard.

1 Write down which devices you use to Watch Movies.

Look at the following example setup for “Watch Movie”, then fill in the information for this activity in your home theater.
