Learning Macros, cont.

Point your existing remote at the bottom of the IR10A remote and press OK when you’re ready. Then press your next key.

After adding more keys you can keep the label for the key (in this case L1) or select Change Label, by pressing Side Key K9.

If you select Change Label you can change the name to anything you want. For example you could call it My Macro, or Macro 1.

After you select Change Label you see the screen below to the right.

You enter the new name for the key using the numeric keys, in a similar fashion to typing in text on a cell phone. E.G. in this example we pressed the 6 key on the remote to enter the letter “M.” Then we pressed the 2 key repeatedly until the letter “a” was displayed. Then we waited a second and repeatedly pressed 2 to select “c.” Then we waited a second and repeatedly pressed the number 7 key until we selected “r.” Then the 6 key to select “o.” Then the 0 (zero) key twice to select a space, and then 1 to select 1. Macro 1 is then displayed.

Press Done to save the new label for the Macro you learned and stored under the L1 key.

The next time you select the Mode that the Macro was learned in (in this case DVR) you’ll see that you can press the Side Key next to “Macro 1” to activate the Macro.

Setting up more Devices

When you first inserted the batteries in

 

the remote you likely went through the

 

Wizard and set up a few devices. Here’s

 

how to set up more devices. Press the

 

HOME key to display the Home screen.

 

Then press the Side Key next to Setup.

 

Then press the Side Key next to Devices.

 

Then pick a device you want to set up.

(1)

Note, it doesn’t have to be a device that

 

is grayed out. You can also select any

 

device that’s already set up (not grayed

 

out) and change its settings. From this

 

point, setting up a device is the same as

 

you learned in the Wizard. See pages 8

 

and 9. Note, you can select Aux 1 or

 

Aux 2 from the Devices screen and then

 

select any type of device to set up under

 

either Aux key.

(2)

Or you could select any device, and then

 

press Change Type repeatedly, on screen

 

(1) above, to scroll through the devices

 

and change to TV (for example) to set

 

up a second TV. Selecting Label, on

 

screen (2) lets you rename the device,

 

e.g. you could call it Den TV, and have

 

another called Liv Rm TV.

 

Note: “Triple tap” name entry works in

 

a similar fashion to text entry on a cell

 

phone. Tap each numeric key to cycle

(3)

through ALL caps, numbers, and lower case letters. So at screen (3) you could press the 6 key to enter M, then the 9 key 8 times for a lower case y, then the zero key twice for a space, then the 8 key for T, then the 8 key three times for a V, to enter My TV. See pages 11, 12, and 23 for more details on entering text to change labels.
