USING THE REMOTE
PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE
The universal remote can be programmed to control most brands of remote controllable VCRs, satellite receivers and cable boxes. The remote is already programmed to control most RCA, GE and Proscan TVs, VCRs, DVD players, laserdisc players and satellite receivers.
TESTING 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 VCR1 button. Then press POWER or CH ^ (channel up) or CH v (channel down) to see if the VCR responds to the remote commands. If not, the remote needs to be programmed.
USING AUTOMATIC CODE SEARCH
The following instructions can be used to program the remote to control each of the components connected to your TV. If you want to exit the automatic code search without programming any of your components, press CLEAR until the LED turns off.
1.Turn on the component you want to control (VCR, SAT, etc.)
2.Point the remote at the component to be controlled. Press and hold the button you want to program (VCR1, VCR2, etc.). While holding the component button, press and hold ON•OFF until the light on the remote turns on, then release both buttons. For the AUX button, using code search will not work, you must use direct entry.
3.Press and release PLAY, then wait 5 seconds or until the LED stops flashing.
At this point the remote is searching for the correct code to program. If, after 5 seconds, the component you want to control does not turn off, press PLAY again to tell the remote to search the next set of codes.
Continue pressing PLAY until the component turns off or you have searched through all of the codes. There are 20 total sets of codes. If the component does not turn off after pressing PLAY 20 times, then the remote cannot control that particular component.
If the component you want to control does turn off:
1.Press and release REVERSE, then wait 2 seconds. Repeat this step until the component turns back ON.
2.To finish, press and hold STOP until the light on the remote turns off.
Using Direct Entry
1.Turn on the component to be programmed.
2.Look up the brand and code number(s) for the component on the code list on the last page of this section, Using the Remote.
3.Press and hold the button on the remote you want to program.
