To program the AUX key, you must first assign it to a device type.
1. Press and hold the AUX key. The POWER key turns on.
2. While holding down the AUX key, press and release the number
key on the keypad for the device you want to control (the
POWER key turns off):
Additional TV press 1
VCR or DVR press 2
Additional DVD press 3
Additional audio device press 4
Additional satellite receiver, press 5
cable box, or DTV converter
3. Release the AUX key. The POWER key blinks four times and
then turns off. The AUX key is now set to control the device
type you selected.

code search to program the AUX key.
Volume Punch-Through
Volume Punch-Through allows the VOL and MUTE keys,
whenpressedinSAT•CBL•DTCorDVD•VCRmodes,to“punch
through” to either TV or AUDIO, whichever was accessed last.
Volume Punch-Through occurs automatically and allows you
to control the volume without exiting the current mode. (If
the AUX key has been programmed with a TV or AUDIO code,
volume can punch through to these devices as well.)
Note: Volume Punch-Through does not occur in cases where
the component code has its own volume/mute controls, such as
some satellite receivers.

Advanced Punch-Through

Volume punch-through as described above occurs automatically.
Advanced punch-through lets you specify one device for all
volumecommandsforeachnon-audiomode(SAT•CBL•DTCor
DVD•VCR).YoucanspecifyeithertheTVorAUDIOdevice(oran
AUX key operating a TV or Audio device).
1. Press and hold the key whose volume commands you want
to send to the TV or audio device. The POWER key turns on.
2. While holding down the device key, press and hold the VOL
up key. The POWER key turns off.
3. After holding down both keys for 3 seconds, the POWER key
turns on and stays on. Release both keys.
4. Press and release the device key you want the Volume
Punch-Through to be directed to from the selected mode
(TV, AUDIO or AUX key). The POWER key flashes.
Note: The device key pressed in step 4 must be programmed
with a TV or AUDIO component. If an invalid key is pressed, the
POWER key ashes four times, then turns off.
Important: Once you have programmed any device with a
specied Volume Punch-Through, the Volume Punch-Through
for all other devices defaults to AUDIO. If you do not want
other components’ Volume Punch-Through to default to
AUDIO, you must manually program them, using steps 1-4.
