Creating Custom Keys

You can easily create custom keys on your Kameleon-C6 keypad by two ways:

•The Learning Feature allows you to transfer functions from your original remote to your Kameleon-C6 Remote. See below.

Introduction

•Macros allow you to program a sequence of events into one convenient press button. See “Creating the Power Macro” on page 20.

You can combine a Learned key in a Macro sequence, creating an even more personalized Kameleon-C6 remote. Furthermore, even if a Learned function used in a Macro is subse- quently deleted, the Macro will revert to the keys original function.

The Learning Feature

Your Kameleon-C6 Remote comes with a com- plete library of pre-programmed codes. After you have set up your Kameleon-C6 –for your device, you may find that there are one or more keys on the device’s original remote control that you would like to have on the Kameleon- C6 keypad.

Your Kameleon-C6 Remote includes a Learning Feature so you can add functions that are unique to your home entertainment devices (e.g. VCR Tracking Up or Down). You may assign the Learned Function to any key, except for the Setup, Scroll and device mode keys (TV, CBL, DVD, AUX,VCR and Audio).

REMEMBER

•YOUR ORIGINAL REMOTE CONTROL MUST BE IN WORKING ORDER FOR THE LEARNING FEATURE TO WORK PROPERLY.

•LEARNED FUNCTIONS ARE DEVICE MODE SPECIFIC, SO EACH KEY CAN STORE A UNIQUE FUNCTION FOR EACH DEVICE MODE.

•LEARNED KEYS CAN BE USED IN MACROS (SEE “CREATING OTHER MACROS” ON PAGE 20.)

•ASSIGNING LEARNED FUNCTIONS TO THE SETUP, SCROLL OR DEVICE MODE KEYS WILL OVERWRITE THE KEYS’ ORIGINAL FUNCTIONS.
