REVERSE PLAY
STOP
You’ll use these buttons when you program the remote to operate another component.
Important: The remote might not operate all models of all brands. The remote buttons also might operate differently for other components, especially when you’re using their menu system.
Programming the Remote to Operate Other Components
The universal remote control can be programmed to operate most brands of remote controllable VCRs, satellite receivers and cable boxes. The remote is already programmed to operate most RCA, GE and Proscan VCRs and satellite receivers.
Note: The TV, VCR, and DVD buttons cannot be programmed.
Find Out If You Need to Program the Remote
To determine whether the universal remote needs to be programmed, turn a component ON, such as a VCR, point the remote at the VCR, and press the VCR2 button. Then press ON•OFF or channel up or channel down to see if the VCR responds to the remote commands. If not, the remote needs to be programmed.
How to Program the Remote
There are two ways to program the remote control: automatic code search and direct entry. Instructions for both ways follow.
Tip
To stop the automatic code search without programming any components, press and hold CLEAR until the light on the remote turns off.
Using Automatic Code Search
1.Turn on the component you want the remote to operate (VCR or satellite receiver).
2.Press and hold the component button on the remote that corresponds to the component you want the remote to operate (VCR2 or SAT•CABLE). While you hold down the component button, press and hold ON•OFF (when the light below the ON•OFF button on the remote turns on, release both buttons).
