Learning Codes from a Remote

Learning Codes from a Remote

The HS 150 remote is able to “learn” codes from other remote controls that might be part of your system setup, like the one from your TV. To learn or transfer codes from an IR remote to the HS’s remote, follow these steps:

1.Place the front of the original remote with the code being sent so that it is facing the IR

Transmitter Window on the HS remote

“head-to-head.”The remotes should be between 2 and 4cm apart.

2.Select the button on the remote that you wish to use as the device selector for the codes about to be entered. This must be any of the Input Selectors 0.

3.Press the Input Selector 0 button chosen

and the Learn Button at the same time. Hold these buttons until the Program Indicator flashes amber and the light under the device selector button turns red. Release the buttons. It is important that you begin the next step within 20 seconds.

4.Press the button on the HS remote that you wish to program. Note that the Program

Indicator will stop flashing.

Important Note: Codes cannot be taught to all buttons on the remote. In these cases the

Program Indicator keeps flashing after the button was released.

5. As long as the Program Indicator is on steadily (for five seconds), press and hold the but- ton on the original remote that you wish to “teach” into the HS remote. If you pressed the button too late or no command was received within five seconds, the Program Indicator will flash red three times and then amber, then simply repeat step four. When the Program

Indicator

turns green, release the button on

the original remote. Note that the Program

Indicator will then begin to flash amber again.

NOTE: If the Program Indicator

turns red

steadily during Step 5, the programming was not successful. Repeat the steps to see if the code will “take.”If the indicator keeps flashing red in step 5, this code cannot be taught.

6.Repeat steps 4 though 5 for each button on the source remote that you wish to transfer to the HS remote.

7.Once all codes have been transferred from the original source remote to the HS remote, press the

Learn button . This will turn off all LEDs and turn off the learning mode.

8.Repeat Steps 1 through 7 for any additional remotes you wish to “teach” into the HS Remote.

Erasing Learned Codes

The HS’s remote allows you to remove or erase the code learned into a single button for a single device, to remove or erase all the codes that have been learned for a single device, or to erase all commands that have been learned to all devices.

To erase a single learned code from within a single device’s settings, follow these steps:

1.Press and hold both the Input Selector 0 within which the individual button to be erased has

been programmed and the Learn button

.

2. When the red LED under the Input Selector

turns red and the Program Indicator flash- es amber, release the buttons.

3.Press and release the Input Selector 0 again for the device within which the individual button to be erased has been programmed.

4. Press the 7 button

three times.

5.Press and release the individual button for which the code is to be erased. The Program Indicator

will blink green two times and then return to amber.

6.To erase other buttons within the same device, press them as noted in Step 5.

7.When all buttons to be erased have been

pressed, press the Learn button

to complete

the process.

 

To erase all codes within a single device, follow these steps:

1.Press and hold both the Input Selector 0 for which you wish to erase the codes and the Learn

button .

2.When the red LED under the Input Selector

turns red and the Program Indicator

flash-

es amber, release the buttons.

 

3.Press and release the same Input Selector 0 again for the device whose codes you wish to erase.

4. Press the 8 button

three times.

5. The Program/SPL Indicator

will turn off,

the red light under the Input Selector will flash on and off once and the Program/SPL Indicator will flash green three times to indicate that

the codes have been erased.

To erase all codes that have been programmed to all devices in the remote, follow these steps:

1. Press any Input Selector 0 and also the

Learn button

.

2.When the red LED under the Input Selector turns red and the Program/SPL Indicator flashes amber, release the buttons.

3.Press and release the same Input Selector 0 again.

4. Press the 9 button

three times.

5. The Program/SPL Indicator

will turn off,

the red light under the Input Selector will flash on and off once and the Program/SPL Indicator will flash green three times after some sec-

onds to indicate that the codes have been erased.

Macro Programming

Macros enable you to easily repeat frequently used combinations of commands with the press of a sin- gle button on the HS’s remote control. Once pro- grammed, a macro will send out up to 19 different remote codes in a pre-determined sequential order enabling you to automate the process of turning on your system, changing devices, or other com- mon tasks. The HS’s remote can store up to four separate macro command sequences, that are accessed by pressing the Macro buttons K.

1.To start programming a macro, press the Mute button A and the Macro button K to be pro- grammed at the same time. Note that the latest selected Input Selector will light red, and the

Program Indicator

will flash amber.

2.Enter the steps for the macro sequence by pressing the button for the actual command step. Although the macro may contain up to

19steps, each button press, including those used to change devices, counts as a step.

The Program Indicator will flash green twice to confirm each button press as you enter commands.

NOTE: While entering commands for Power On of any device during a macro sequence, press the Mute button A. DO NOT press the Power ON button 0.

Remember to press the appropriate Input Selector button 0 before functions are changed to another device.

3.When all the steps have been entered, press the M N KL button 9 to enter the com- mands. The red light under the Input Selector 0 will blink and then turn off and the

Program Indicator will flash green twice to confirm the macro to be programmed.

Example: To program the Macro 1 K button so that it turns on the HS 150 and your TV, follow these steps:

Press the Macro 1 button K and Mute A buttons at the same time and then release them.

Note that the Program Indicator will flash amber.

Press the TV Selector 0.

Press the Mute A button to store the HS’s power on command.

Press the Screen Power On button

button to store the TV Power On Command.

Press the M N KL/Channel Up button 9 to complete the process and store the macro sequence.

After following these steps, each time you press the Macro 1 button K, the remote will send all Power On commands.
