Philips intelligent remote control manual Choose how you want to add the new device

3Choose how you want to add the new device:

•Create New Device uses a built-in template to create a new kind of device. Use this option if you are adding a new kind of device to your system.

•Copy Existing Device uses one of the devices on the Device menu as a template to create the new device. The new device gets the same name as the original, but a number is added to the name so you can tell the two devices apart (for example, VCR and VCR2).

•Restore Deleted Device is for recovering devices you have deleted. For more information, refer to “Restoring deleted buttons, devices, and macro groups” on page 49.

Tap the device you want to create.

Scroll to see more devices.

4In the Device menu, tap the device you want to add. (Scroll the Device menu, if necessary.)

If the type of device you’re adding isn’t on the list, add a similar device; you can customize it later. Or, use the device called “Other”; it includes a variety of generic buttons.

5Tap a button to tell the remote control whether to assign RC codes to the new device.

For more information about RC codes, refer to “What are RC-5 and RC-6codes?” on page 27. If you think your new device might understand RC-5 or RC-6 codes, it’s a good idea to include them in the new device. If some commands are incorrect, you can always teach the correct commands.

NOTE If you choose not to copy the RC codes, the control panels of the new device will not display any buttons. The buttons are hidden because no commands are assigned to them. However, the buttons are visible in Learn
