Choose ONE of these options:

1.Select a recognized manufacturer. The model number optimized for NetCommand will display at the bottom of the screen. If a number follows the manufacturer’s name, (example: Mitsubishi 1), this indicates additional models are optimized for that manufacturer. For many device types, non-listed models may operate the same way as the listed models do and will use the pre-loaded setting.
