Programming the remote control for component control

Programming the component code

1Turn on the TV. Turn on the cable or satellite set-top-box, VCR, or DVD and, if applicable, insert media (a cassette or a disc).

NOTE: Please read steps 2 through 4 completely before proceeding. We recommend highlighting or writing down the codes and device you wish to program before performing step 2.

2On the remote control, press CBL/SAT button or DVD/VCR button once. Press and hold SETUP until the red light blinks twice, then release SETUP.

3Use the Manufacturer’s Codes (see listing that follows) to locate the type of component by brand name and then enter the first four-digit code for your component. If performed correctly, the red light blinks twice.

NOTE: If the red light did not blink twice, then repeat steps 2 and 3, entering the code again.

4Aim the remote control at the component and press PWR once. The component should turn off. If it does not respond, repeat steps 2 and 3, trying each code for your brand until you find one that works. If it still does not work, try searching for the code; see “Searching for the component code” on page 53.

NOTE: If the device does not have a power button, press PLAY.

5Repeat steps 1 through 4 for each component you want to control with the remote control.

Searching for the component code

If your device does not respond to the remote control after trying all codes listed for your brand, or if your brand is not listed at all, try searching for your code:

1On the remote control, press CBL/SAT button or DVD/VCR button once.

2Press and hold SETUP until the red light blinks twice, then release SETUP.

3Press the number buttons 9, 9,1. The red light blinks twice.

4Aim the remote control at the set-top-box or the VCR or DVD and slowly alternate between pressing PWR and the component (CBL/SAT or DVD/VCR) button. Stop when the component turns off.

NOTE: In the search mode, the remote control sends codes from its library to the selected device, starting with the most popular code first.

5Press SETUP once to lock in the code.
