CONFIGURING THE REMOTE
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 25.

11.When pressing the “1” button does not turn the device being programmed back on, repeat the procedure by trying the remainder of the Numeric Keys k in sequence, each time 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.
12.When pressing one of the numeric keys in Step 10 or 11 causes the device being programmed to turn back on, follow the instructions shown in Figure 22 and press the Set Button p within five seconds of the device turning on. After you press the Set button, the top line of the LCD dis- play will read SAVING… and then the word SAVED will flash four times in the center of the bottom line.
13.When the codes are saved, the remote will return to normal operation, and whenever you press the Input Selector Button d that was just programmed, the codes for the new device will be used. If no further buttons are pressed, the remote will revert back to the default setting for AVR commands.
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 these steps:
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’s 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 15 appears in the remote’s LCD Information Display c. Release the button when the red light under the Set Button p appears.
2.The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure 16), will appear in the LCD display and the Set Button p will remain illuminated in red. Press the ⁄ Navigation Button n once so that
LEARN appears on the bottom line of the LCD screen, as shown in Figure 26. Press the Set Button p to begin the process of learning commands from another device’s remote into the DPR remote.

3.The SELECT A DEVICE message will appear in the LCD display (Figure 17). Press the ⁄ / ¤ Navigation Buttons n to scroll through the list of device categories and press the Set Button p 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.
4.The next menu screen (Figure 27) will prompt you to select the button, or “key,” on the DPR remote that you wish to program. Press that button on the DPR remote.

5.Once you press the button to be programmed on the DPR remote, press and hold the button on the remote control for the device to be programmed within five seconds, as instructed on the next menu screen (Figure 28).

6.Continue to hold the button on the original remote until the menu on the DPR remote’s LCD screen changes. If the code is successfully learned you will see the display shown in Figure 29. If you see that menu, proceed to Step 9. If the code is not success- fully learned, you will see the display shown in Figure 30. If that menu appears, proceed to Step 8.

7.If the message shown in Figure 26 appears in the display, press the Set Button p to try pro- gramming the button again. When the remote prompts you to press and hold the key on the original remote again by showing the display shown in Figure 28, immediately press the button on the source remote again. To avoid another failed attempt, make certain that the windows on the two remotes are facing one another.
8.Continue to hold the button on the original remote until the DPR’s display changes again. If the code was successfully learned, you will see the display shown in Figure 29. In that case, skip to the next step. If the LEARN FAILED display (Figure 30) appears again you may either try to program the key again, or press the ⁄ Navigation Buttons n to stop the process. It is possible that some remotes may use code sequences or infrared fre- quencies that are not compatible with the DPR remote, and those codes cannot be learned. When the display shown in Figure 31 appears, press the Set Button p to exit the Learning system.

9.When a code has been learned successfully, you have three options. When the display shown in Figure 29 is on the LCD screen on the DPR remote, you may press the Set Button p to learn additional codes from the buttons on a remote into the DPR remote. Follow Steps 4 through 8 as often as needed to complete the
10.If you wish to change the name that appears in the LCD display when the button that has just had a new code learned is pressed, press the
⁄ Navigation Button n so that the display shown in Figure 32 appears in the LCD display. At this point you will be taken to a RENAME KEY display. Enter the new name for the key following the instructions shown in the Renaming Individual Keys section of this manual on page 41. If you find it more convenient to rename the but- tons at a later time, you may do that separately by following the instructions on page 39.
