Direct-access buttons

The buttons labeled Mute, Channel, and Volume are direct-access buttons. The direct-access buttons make these frequently used functions available even when the touchscreen is off. You can program them so that they always operate the same component—for example, the TV. Or, you can program them to operate different devices at different times.

Left and Right buttons

The Left and Right buttons change function depending on the device the remote control is controlling. Labels displayed above them on the touchscreen show their current function.

VCR is the current device.

Labels show current function of Left and Right buttons. Functions can vary depending on device.
