Set the power on commands

Once you’ve given the Hello activity the name you want (or left it as “Hello”), the next Wizard screen lets you set how each of your devices are powered on.

Use the pull-down menu for each device to set that device’s power-on command. The options are:

None  Use this option if you want to leave a device out of the Hello activity (for example, if the device is in another room).

On  Use this option if the remote that originally came with this device has separate ON and OFF keys (not a single POWER key).

Off  Since this option turns your devices off, we won’t use it now.

Toggle  Use this option if the remote that originally came with this device has a single POWER (or ON/OFF) key.

Once you’ve set the power-on command for each of your devices click the button at the bottom of the screen to continue.

Set volume/channel/playback controls

The next setup screen for the Hello activity lets you set which devices you use to change volume and channels, and control playback in your home entertainment system.

Once you’ve set the devices you want to control volume, channel selection,

and playback, click the button at the bottom of the screen to continue.

After you click Next, the EZ-RC™ Remote Control Setup Wizard prepares your remote to test the activity with your home theater system.
