Using the ClonePRO™

Modes of operation

The ClonePRO operates from one of two modes:

DSCI   Connect a DSCI cable to the ClonePRO remote and to the TV’s DSCI port on the back panel.

IR (Infrared)  This operation is wireless. Press ON to begin using the remote in IR mode.

The corresponding “ready” light indicates the mode of operation, and the corresponding “busy” light indicates activity in this mode.

Buttons with black labels function similarly in both modes, while green labels operate

DSCI mode and red labels operate IR mode.

DSCI mode

The ClonePRO enters this mode when it is connected to the TV’s Digital Serial

Communications Interface port via a cable (included).

Any standard (no-flip, 1-to-1) 8-conductor computer-networking cable may be used.

No battery is required in this mode.

If the unit is already in IR mode, press OFF to speed the transition to

DSCI mode.

DSCI (green) buttons

Comm  Restores the TV to normal commercial operation, essentially undoing the effect of the Legacy and Decom buttons. Decom  “Decommercializes” the TV to facilitate aftermarket resale.

[Factory]  Available in certain models only.

Note: Pressing FACTORY overwrites any settings already in the TV.

LEARN  Begins the process of learning the settings from a TV that has been setup as desired.

Note: Pressing LEARN overwrites any settings already in the ClonePRO.

Legacy  Places the TV in a mode in which it emulates the behavior of older models. This is a required part of the configuration for some applications.

POWER  Turns on the TV. It is recommended, though not required, when in DSCI mode to view on-screen displays. [Status]: Press and hold the INFO button for several seconds to display settings stored in the ClonePRO and the TV. For example: Mem: CB:36 TV:36

This tells you the ClonePRO and the TV have 36 pages of information stored in memory.
