Programming Device Control

The Polaris Remote Control is preprogrammed to operate the cable box (converter) provided by your cable company, and an RCA TV. To control devices other than the default brands, perform the following steps; otherwise skip this section.

NOTE: If you have another brand of cable converter you would like to control, you’ll need to unlock the cable ID Lock before changing the converter code (see “Programming ID Lock” on page 14).

1.Turn on a device.

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., TV or CBL); it blinks once. Then press and hold SETUP until the selected mode key blinks twice.

3.Use the “Manufacturer’s Codes (Códigos del Fabricante)” starting on page 39) to locate 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 blinks 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 (either TV or CBL) and press the key for that device 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 13).

5.Repeat steps 1 through 4 for the other device you want the remote control to operate (either TV or CBL). For future reference, write down each working device code in the boxes on the following page.
