Programming Device Control

Atlas DVR/PVR Manual 3/20/03 5:00 PM Page 10

The Atlas DVR/PVR 5-Device Universal Remote Control is preprogrammed to operate the Scientific Atlanta cable box (converter) provided by your cable system, an RCA TV, a Toshiba DVD player, an RCA VCR (as an AUX device), and a Pioneer audio receiver. To control devices other than the default brands, perform the following steps; otherwise skip this section:

NOTES: For TV/VCR Combo control, skip this section and perform the instructions on page 12. Also refer to the “Device Table” on page 8 to find out which devices can be programmed onto each device key.

If you have another brand of cable converter or a satellite receiver you would like to control, you’ll first need to unlock the cable ID Lock before changing the converter code – see “Programming ID Lock” on page 27.

1.Turn on a device and, if applicable, insert video media, (e.g., cassette or disc).

NOTE: Please read steps 2 through 4 completely before proceeding. Highlight or write down the codes and device you wish to program before moving on to step 2.

2.On the remote control, press a device key once (i.e.., AUX, DVD, AUD, TV, or CBL); it will blink once. Then press and hold SETUP until the selected mode key blinks twice, then release

SETUP.

3.Use the Manufacturer’s Codes (starting on page 13) to locate the the type of device and brand name and then enter the first four-digit code for your device. If performed correctly, the selected mode key will blink twice.

NOTE: If the selected mode key emits a long blink, the entry is invalid. Repeat steps 2 through 3 and try entering the same code again.

4.Aim the remote control at the device and

press PWR once. The device should turn off. If it does not, repeat steps 2 through 3, trying each code for your brand until you find one that works. If it still does not respond, try searching for the code (see Searching For Your Code on page 24).

NOTE: If the device does not have a POWER key, press the (Play) key.
