Checking the codes

If you have set up the remote using the procedure in “Searching for your code” on page 33, you may need to find out which five-digit code is operating your equipment.

To find out which code is assigned to your TV (for example):

1Press TV once.

2Press and hold SET until the red LED blinks twice, then release.

3Enter 9 9 0. The LED blinks twice.

4To view the code for the first digit, press 1. Count the red LED blinks (for example, three blinks = 3), then write down the number in the appropriate code listing at the top of this column.

Note

If the LED does not blink, the code digit is 0.

5Repeat Step 4 for the four remaining digits, using 2 for the second digit, 3 for the third digit, 4 for the fourth digit, and 5 for the fifth digit.

6To check for other device codes, repeat Steps 1 through 5, substituting the device key for the device you would like to check.

Using learning

This universal remote control includes a learning feature (some models may not include this) so you can add functions that are unique to your home entertainment devices (such as VCR Tracking Up or Down). However, there are some considerations to keep in mind.

Precautions

•Your original remote controls must be in working order for learning to work properly.

•Learned keys are mode-specific, so each one can store a unique function for each mode.

•Do not use the following keys for learning: Device Keys, SET, or (record).

•Learning capacity is approximately 42 to 75 keys, depending on the code being learned.

•Certain device functions are not learnable, including multi-frequency types, some high frequency functions, and other unusual formats.

•For optimum learning, avoid high levels of ambient light such as natural sunlight or energy-efficient fluorescent lights.

Note

Please have your original remote controls handy before programming learning.

Programming a learned keyTo program a learned key:

1Place your Insignia remote control head-to-head (about 2" apart) from your original remote control (the one that came with the device). Also, locate the key (on your original remote control) that you want the Insignia remote control to learn. Press the mode key you wish to learn functions on.

2Press and hold SET until the LED blinks twice, then release.

3Enter 9 7 5. The LED blinks twice.

Note

If more than 10 seconds pass between key presses, the remote exits programming.

If the LED displays one long flash instead, either your batteries are low, or the Insignia remote control has a memory fault. In either case, the remote cannot learn a new key.

4Press the key on the remote you wish to program. The feedback LED stays lit for three seconds, indicating that the remote is ready to learn.

5On the original remote, press and hold the key to be learned. Continue holding the key on the original remote until the Insignia’s LED blinks twice.

Note

If the red LED displays one long blink, a learning error has occurred. Try repeating this step again until a successful capture occurs. If the function is still not captured, press and hold SET to exit programming and review the Precautions” above. If needed, also see “Troubleshooting remote control programming” on page 37. After reviewing, start programming again at Step 1.

6Repeat Steps 4 and 5 to program another key. Once you have completed programming all the keys you want, press and hold SET until the LED blinks twice to save all data learned.

Deleting a single learning key

This process returns the key to its original programming for the mode you select. You can also delete learned programming by teaching a different function to the key (see “Programming a Learned Key” above).

Note

If more than 10 seconds pass between key presses, the remote exits programming.

If the LED displays one long flash instead, either your batteries are low, or the Insignia remote control has a memory fault. In either case, the remote cannot learn a new key.

To delete a single learned key:

1Press the mode key that you wish to remove the learned key from.

2Press and hold SET until the LED blinks twice, then release.

3Enter 9 7 6. The LED blinks twice.

4Press the key containing the learned function to be deleted, twice. The LED blinks twice and programming ends.
