RV-8

Appendix C

 

 

Note:

Follow these instructions only if you actually want a code sent when changing devices. It may not be desired to send out codes when changing to a device. For example, you program the RV-8’s TV input code on the TV device, and are currently in the DVD device pages. The RV-8’s input is set to DVD. Now you want to quickly adjust the picture on the TV. If the TV device button is pushed, it will change the input on the RV-8 to TV and you will not be able to adjust the picture for the DVD. In this case, it would be better to not program a code to the TV device.

PROGRAMMING FAVORITE CHANNELS

Up to 50Favorite Channel buttons can be programmed and saved. Each favorite channel button can send up to 10 commands with one button press.

To program Favorite Channel Buttons:

1.Go to the SETUP mode by pressing both the HOME and ENT buttons simultaneously for three seconds.

2.Press the FAV button next to the LCD screen.

3.Press the device button that corresponds to the component that the FAV channel will control. For example, pressing the TV device will only send the type of code to which that the TV responds to. Pressing the SAT device will only control the satellite box.

4.Press the LCD button you will be assigning to the favorite channel and enter the channel number you wish to store in the FAV channel button. Up to 10 digits can be stored.

5.Press the favorite channel button selected in step 4 again to store the programmed channel.

Note:

If a wrong channel number is pushed, move the cursor by using the left or right button of the joystick and then reassign the correct channel number.

6.Repeat from Step 3 until all the desired FAV channel buttons have been programmed.

7.Once programming is completed, press the HOME button to exit from the Favorite Channel mode. Exit from the SETUP mode by pressing the HOME button once again.

There are five pages of LCD screens for favorite channel programming. Scroll to other pages by pressing the PAGE or FAV button. In the Favorite Channels macro, the following buttons can be used: 0-9, ENTER, DISPLAY, POWER, SYSTEM OFF and INFO/PAUSE.

Note:

To make even more powerful FAV macros, codes can be learned from original remote(s) to the 0-9, ENTER, DISPLAY, POWER, SYSTEM OFF and INFO/PAUSE buttons in any device, and used in your FAV macros. (This will not work if a preprogrammed device code has been applied to those buttons.) For example, some TVs require a code be sent after the digits other than the ENTER code in order to change channels. In this case, you could learn the proper code to the ENTER button from your original TV remote, and use that in your FAV macro.
