Programming the Remote Control

Introduction

The AT2300 AllTouch® Remote Control (remote) can do the job of three separate remote controls. You can program the remote to operate your TV, VCR, and cable set-top device using the procedures in this guide.

Note: If you have questions about the operation of this remote, contact your cable service provider.

Programming for TV Operation

You can program the remote to operate various TV functions, such as power, volume, and mute.

Note: Your cable service provider may have programmed your remote to control the volume through your cable set-top device instead of through the TV. If that is the case, you can re-program your remote to control the volume through your TV. See Programming for Volume Control on page 3 of this guide.

1.Locate your TV brand and TV setup code in the table in this guide. If your brand is not listed, see Searching the Code Library.

2.Important: Turn on your TV.
3.Point the remote away from the cable set-top device, TV, and VCR.
4.Press and hold SELECT and TV until the light blinks twice.

5.Enter the setup code for your TV. The light on the remote should blink twice. If not, try another setup code, if available; or go to Searching the Code Library.

6.Point the remote toward the TV and test the POWER, VOLUME, and MUTE functions.

Note: If these functions do not operate, enter the next setup code from the list, and repeat this procedure from step 1.

Programming for VCR Operation

You can program the remote to operate your VCR. After you switch the remote to VCR operation, you can play, fast-forward, pause, rewind, or stop a VCR tape.

If you want the DHCT to manage the recording of events with your VCR, you must use the VCR CommanderService. (See the VCR Commander Service User’s Guide for more information or ask your cable service provider.) Without this service, you must manually set up your VCR to record programs.

1.Move the VCR/VOD slide switch on the remote to the VCR position.
2.Important: Turn on your VCR.

3.Locate your VCR brand and setup code in the table in this guide. If your brand is not listed, see Searching the Code Library.

4.Point the remote away from the cable set-top device, the TV, and the VCR.
5.Press and hold SELECT and VCR until the light blinks twice.

6.Enter the setup code for your VCR. The light on the remote should blink twice. If not, try another setup code, if available; or go to Searching the Code Library.

7.Point the remote toward the VCR and test the POWER, PLAY, and STOP functions. If these functions do not operate, enter the next setup code in the list, and repeat this procedure from step 2.

Record of Codes

When you determine the correct setup code for your devices, record your setup codes in the following table for future reference.

TV

VCR
CBL
Searching the Code Library

If none of the codes listed for your device work, you can search the code library for a valid code. The remote automatically selects the proper code.

1.Important: Turn on the device in question before you search for a code.
2.Point the remote away from the device you are programming.

3.To search for the code, press and hold SELECT and the appropriate power key (CBL, TV, VCR) until the light on the remote blinks twice. For example, to search for a TV code, hold down SELECT and TV until the light blinks twice.

4.Using the remote control keypad, press 9 9 1. The light blinks twice.

5.Point the remote toward the device, and press the appropriate power key (CBL, TV, VCR).

6.Did the device turn off?
If yes, go to step 7.

If no, press the Up Arrow Key to go to the next code, and press POWER to test the new code.

Note: The light on the remote blinks three times when you reach the end of the code library. Each library contains the following number of codes:

VCR: 25 codes
TV: 38 codes
CBL: 5 codes
7.Press SELECT to confirm a valid code. The light on the remote blinks twice.

8.Point the remote toward the device, and press the appropriate power key (CBL, VCR, TV) to confirm that the device turns on and off.

Identifying Programmed Codes

After you search the library of codes, you can find out which code you used to program your TV, VCR, or cable device. Use the following procedure to identify the programmed codes. Record the codes in the space provided.

1.Point the remote away from the cable set-top device, the TV, and the VCR.

2.To identify the code, press SELECT and the appropriate device key (CBL, VCR, TV) until the light on the remote blinks twice. For example, to identify the VCR code, hold SELECT and VCR until the light blinks twice.

3.Using the remote control keypad, press
99 0. The light on the remote blinks twice.

4.Press 1 and then count the light blinks. The number of blinks indicates the first digit in the code. For example, 4 blinks indicates the first number in the code is

4.If the light does not blink, the digit is
0(zero).

5.Press 2 and then count the light blinks. The number of blinks indicates the second number in the code.

6.Press 3 and then count the light blinks. The number of blinks indicates the third number in the code.

7.Press 4 and then count the light blinks. The number of blinks indicates the fourth number in the code.

8.Write down your codes in the Record of Codes section on page 1.
