Remote Control Programming

Programing a Device

To control universal TV, VCR or DVD, cable or satellite receivers, amplifier or tuner, and auxiliary devices with the CA4-RC you need to program the remote. You will need to install the batteries and have enough room to point the CA4-RC at the various source equipment. Before proceeding, find the codes for the devices you want to program in the “Manufacturer’s Codes”, and write them down or highlight them. Note: Record which device is identified as Source 1, 2, 3, and 4.

1. Turn on the device and, if needed, load media.

2. Press the source key identified with that device.

3.Press and hold SET until the red LED blinks twice, then release.

4.Enter the first five-digit code for your device. The LED blinks once as each digit is entered. If the code is correct, the LED blinks twice. Note: If the LED does not blink twice, repeat steps 2 to 4 and try entering the code again.

5.Aim the remote at the device and press Power. The device should turn off. If it does not, repeat steps 3 to 5, trying each code for your brand until you find one that works. If you cannot find a code that works, see Searching for Your Code.

6.Repeat steps 1 to 5 for the other devices you want to control. Write down each working device code.

Searching for Your Code

If the device does not respond to the remote after trying all codes listed for your brand, or if the brand is not listed, try searching for the code:

1.Press a source key once.

2.Press and hold SET until the red LED blinks twice, then release.

3.Enter 9-9-1, then the device group number (see below). The LED blinks twice.

0 Cable (Cable Converters, Video Accessories, Satellite Receivers)

1 TV (TVs)

2 VCR (VCRs, DVD players)

3 Audio (Audio Amplifiers, Audio Amp/Tuners, CD Players)

4.Aim the remote at the device and press POWER. The remote sends IR codes from its library to the selected device, starting with the most popular code first. If the device responds, go to step 6.

5.If the device does not respond, press CH+. the remote will try the next code. Continue until the device responds. Press CH- to try the previous code.

6.Press SET to lock in code. To search for other device codes, repeat steps 1-5.

Checking the Codes

If you have set up the remote using the procedure in “Searching for Your Code,” you may need to find out which five-digit code is operating your equipment. For example, to find out which code is assigned to your TV:

1.Press the source key to which the TV is assigned.

2.Press and hold SET until the red LED blinks twice, then release.

3.Enter 9-9-0. The LED blinks twice.

4.To view the code’s first digit, press 1. Count the LED blinks (e.g., three blinks =3), and enter the number in the appropriate device listed in step 3 of "Programming a Device." If a code digit is 0, the LED does not blink.

5.Repeat step 4 for the remaining digits, using 2 for the second digit, and so on.

6.To check for other device codes, repeat steps 1 to 5, using the appropriate key.
