Learning Tips
Before transferring commands from your original remote to the RCU1010RF, check out these useful tips on Learning.
1.Make sure you are using fresh batteries in both the RCU1010RF and your original remote(s).
2.It is recommended that a Master Clear be done before attempting any Learning. This clears all Learned commands for all component modes. (See section on Master Clear.)
3.Point the top of the original remote at the base of the RCU1010RF so the IR LED on the original remote is in line with the RCU1010RF Learn sensor, located at the bottom of the remote.
4.The distance between the two remotes should be approximately
5.To ensure that your units are compatible and to increase your familiarity with the Learning process, you may wish to experiment by learning two or three keys initially. Then, carry out a Master Clear before learning all the desired functions from your original remote.
6.Incandescent or
IR transmissions. When using the Learning function, keep the remotes at least three feet away from such light sources.
7.When learning a key, do not release the key on your original remote until the Learning Success Screen is displayed on the RCU1010RF touchscreen, which takes approximately
8.You cannot learn any commands under the LCD LEARN, LCD MACRO, SETUP, BACKLIGHT or any LCD component keys.
9.If there is a problem during the Learning process, the LED indicator light flashes for two seconds and the Learning Error Screen appears on the touchscreen. The unit still remains in Learning Mode.
10.All Learned keys are saved automatically.
11.When the memory is full, the display shows the Memory Full Screen and the LED indicator light flashes for two seconds. It is not possible to learn any keys without first clearing Learned commands under a component mode.
Code Learning
Codes from the Code Lists include basic functionality for each component they control. Once you have programmed in the list code for your specific component, you can customize the RCU1010RF touchscreen to include certain functions from your original remote(s) that were not embedded in the preset code. This allows you to transfer the best features from existing remotes to the RCU1010RF remote.
Your RCU1010RF has the ability to learn and store commands from your original remote(s) under the mode(s) of your choice. The RCU1010RF can store more than 30 key commands for each original remote. Only one original remote can be learned under any one mode (i.e., the RCU1010RF can learn the commands for one TV remote, one VCR remote, one DVD remote, etc.).
Once you have taught your RCU1010RF any additional commands from the original remotes and set your Key Label Options, use the Learned Key Reference Pages in this manual to enter your customized options for each mode.
Learning Commands
Now you’re ready to have your RCU1010RF learn the commands from your existing remote(s). All Learned keys are saved automatically. Remember: only one original remote can be stored under any one mode. The RCU1010RF can learn the commands for one TV remote, one VCR remote, one DVD remote, etc.
