Automatic Code Entry

In addition to manual code selection using the brand name list, it is also possible to automatically search through all the codes that are stored in the DPR remote’s library to see whether a device will respond even if it

is not listed among the brands that appear when you program the remote manually. To automatically search through the codes that are available for a specific device type (e.g., DVD, VCR), follow these steps:

working even though you may not see anything happening to the device being programmed.

7.It will take a few seconds for the remote to send out the first group of commands, after which you will see a new display in the LCD screen, as shown in Figure 26. Following the instructions, if the device being programmed has not turned off, press the ⁄ Navigation Button o again to send another group of codes. If the device being programmed has turned off, skip to Step 9.

pressing and then releasing the button to see whether the new device turns back on. When it does, skip to the next step. However, if you try all 10 numeric keys and find that the unit will not turn on, you won’t be able to use this method to pro- gram the device. Press the Clear Button j to exit the programming process. You’ll need to follow the Learning Commands instructions below to enter the codes for this device into the DPR remote.

1.Turn on the power to the device you wish to program into the DPR remote. This is important because in a later step you will need to see whether the device turns off to determine whether the remote has been programmed for the proper remote codes.

2.Press and hold the Program Button y for about three seconds while the message shown in Figure 18 appears in the remote’s LCD Information Display c. Release the button when the red light under the Set Button q appears.

3.The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure

19)will appear in the LCD display and the Set Button q will remain illuminated in red. Press the Set Button q to begin the process of selecting a device and locating the proper remote codes.

4.SELECT A DEVICE will appear in the LCD display (Figure 20). Press the ⁄ / ¤ Navigation Button o to scroll through the list of device categories and press the Set Button q when the device for which you wish to set the codes appears. For this example, we will select “TV” to enter the codes needed to operate your TV.

5.At the next menu screen on the remote, press the ⁄ Navigation Button o so that the bottom line of the LCD display reads AUTO (Figure 25) and then press the Set Button q to enter the Automatic programming mode.

6.As instructed on the next menu screen, press the ⁄ Navigation Button o to begin the automatic code search process. Your confirmation that the remote is sending out commands is the movement of a square block across the top line of the LCD display screen while the bottom line reads PLEASE WAIT…. You will also see the transmit icon in the upper right corner of the LCD display’s top line to remind you that the remote is

8.By pressing the ⁄ Navigation Button o again, the remote will send out a new set of commands. When it pauses, follow the instructions shown in Step 7. Depending on how many codes are stored for a specific device type, you may have to repeat this process as many as fifteen times. Remember, if the device turns off, skip to Step 9. When all the codes for the device being programmed have been tried, the instruction shown in Figure 27 will appear. This means that the codes for the product you are trying to pro- gram are not in the DPR remote library and you will have to “learn” them into the remote following the instructions shown in the next section. Press the Set Button q as instructed to exit the programming process.

9.If the device being programmed does turn off after following the instructions in Step 7, you will need to verify the code set by pressing the Numeric Keys k in sequence, as instructed in Figure 26. Point the remote at the device being programmed, and press the “1” Button k to see whether the device turns back on.

10.After pressing and releasing the “1” Button k, check to see whether the device has turned back on. If it has, skip to Step 12. If it does not turn off, press the “2” Button k, or the next button in the numeric sequence if you are repeating the procedure, as instructed by the LCD screen in Figure 28.

Learning Commands

On occasions when the DPR remote does not contain the codes for a particular product’s remote in its built- in library, or when you wish to program a missing or special function into one button of a device, the DPR remote’s learning capability allows you to do that. To teach commands from one product’s remote into the DPR remote, follow the steps below:

The process requires that both the device’s original remote and the DPR remote be available. Before pressing any buttons on either remote, place them so that the IR transmitter on the remote from the device to be programmed is facing the Infrared Lens

on the DPR remote. The two remotes should be no more than an inch apart, and there should not be any direct sunlight or other bright light source near the remotes.

1.Press and hold the Program Button y for about three seconds while the message shown in Figure 18 appears in the remote’s LCD Information Display c. Release the button when the red light under the Set Button q appears.

2.The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure 19), will appear in the LCD display and the Set Button q will remain illuminated in red. Press the ⁄ Navigation Button o once so that

LEARN appears on the bottom line of the LCD screen, as shown in Figure 29. Press the Set Button q to begin the process of learning
