4-IN-ONE REMOTE POWERED BY KAMELEON

2 Introduction

INTRODUCTION
The RadioShack 4-in-One Remote powered
by Kameleon™ is a revolutionary universal
remote control th at uses Univer sal
Electronics' Kameleon Technology. It is
designed to control up to four home
entertainment devices.
After installing four (4) new AA alkaline
batteries (not included), you can immediately
use the remote to control an RCA TV, VCR,
and DVD Player, and a Motorola Cable Box.
To control other brands, please perform the
instructions in “Programming A Device” on

HOW KAMELEON™ WORKS
T
he RadioShack 4-in-One Remote powered by
Kameleon™ provides the versatility of an LCD
remote control with the feel of a traditional push
button unit. The result is a stunning, bright display
with engaging animation and touch-sensitive
graphics for the user
.
This remote combines the familiarity of
push-button cont rols for sta ndard opera tions
(such as number keys) with the flexibility of
Kameleon’s menu-driven LCD.
Acting like its namesake, Kameleon changes
the Device Menu for the device being
selected. For example, selecting TV displays a
main menu that contains PIP controls.
However, selecting a DVD player displ ays a
menu with navigation keys and transport
controls for the DVD device.
Animated key gra phics also p rovide
enhanced operational feedback, so you can
easily see what mode is active and when
commands are communicating w ith a device.
The end result of Kameleon technology is a
simple, elegant, and intelligent way of
simplifying the rem ote control keys for four
different devices.
