To use this universal remote with your home
entertainment system, fi rst you need to program
it to control your devices. There are four ways you
can program the universal remote to operate your
devices:
• The Brand Code Search searches through
the codes for select brands of devices. If your
brand is listed in the Brand Code section of the
code list, try this method fi rst.
• The Direct Code Entry searches through the
codes for select brands of devices. Note: Direct
Code Entry is usually the best method to use
for audio devices.
• The Auto Code Search goes automatically
through all the codes for the device you’re
trying to control.
• The Manual Code Search lets you manually
go through all the codes for the device you’re
trying to control.
2. Program the remote

Brand Code Search

The Brand Code Search goes through only the
codes for one of the select brands listed in the
accompanying code list. If your brand of device is
listed, this search can be very quick and easy.
IMPORTANT: The Brand Code Search works
for TVs, VCRs, DVD players, satellite receivers,
cable boxes, and audio devices. The Brand Code
Search does not work for programming this
remote to control DVRs, digital TV converter
boxes, or streaming media players. Use a different
programming method for these kinds of devices.
TIPS: Each device key is associated with a type
of device—the TV is preset to search for TVs,
SAT•CBL•STREAM for satellite receivers, digital
TV converters, cable boxes, or streaming media
players, DVD for DVD players, DVR•AUX1 for
DVRs, VCR•AUX2 for VCRs, and AUDIO for audio
receivers.
To program the DVR•AUX1 or VCR•AUX2 key for
a different type of device, see the Reassigning the
DVR•AUX1 or VCR•AUX2 Key section.
To control combo devices, like TV/DVDs and TV/
VCRs, you need to program each key separately.
Each key will control that part of the combo
device.
If the original remote control that came with your
device has separate ON and OFF keys (instead
of a single POWER key), the Brand Code Search
might not work with that device. Try the Direct
Code Entry method described later in this manual.
To exit without saving a new code at any point in
the Brand Code Search, press the EXIT•BACK key.
