7.Repeat steps 5 and 6 for each button you want to learn.

8.When you’ve finished learning all the keys, press

SETUP.

Notes:

Make sure you have fresh batteries in both remotes before learning.

Take care not to move either remote while pressing the buttons.

Experiment with the distance between the remotes if you have a problem learning.

Some remotes do not have their LED in the center so you might need to experiment with the side-to-side position of the remotes relative to each other.

Do not sit directly under an incandescent lamp while teaching the remote.

In most cases you will hold the button on the remote you are learning from until the LED goes out on the UR86A Remote. In some cases however, you might find that the LED on the UR86A Remote doesn’t go out until you release the key on the remote you are learning from.

You cannot store any functions under the following keys: Learn, Setup, TV, VCR, CBL, AUX, X10, the Mouse pad or its Left, Right, or Grab buttons.

Although up to 150 buttons can be learned, only one different remote type can be stored under any one Mode.

RESTORING THE DEFAULTS

If you have problems learning keys, try a Mode Reset or Master Reset, and then try learning them again.

Mode reset

Press and hold Setup until LED lights, then press Mode, Learn, Learn, Setup. This restores the default code for that particular Mode (TV, VCR, CBL, AUX).

Master reset

Press and hold Setup until LED lights, then press Learn, Learn, Setup. This restores the default for ALL keys.

HOME AUTOMATION

The first thing you need to understand is that there are two different devices you need to control your house; Controllers and Modules. Any light or appliance that you want to control is plugged into a Module and that Module is then plugged into a standard AC outlet.

Modules receive commands from Controllers. Examples include the Lamp Module (sold separately). The Transceiver Module (also sold separately) is another example (although

it also doubles as a Controller as described later).

Controllers are plugged into standard wall outlets and send commands to Modules over your existing electrical wiring in your house without affecting your electricity in any way.

The Transceiver Module works as a Controller when it is used with a remote control such as the X10 MouseRemote. When the Transceiver Module receives a command from a remote control it sends digital signals over your existing house

wiring to a Module which receives the signals and executes the command. The Remote uses radio frequency (RF) signals to send commands to the Transceiver Module. RF signals can go right through walls, so you can use the Mouse Remote to control lights or appliances from anywhere in your home.
