Chapter 6 – Other Features

The SUR-25 has the following additional features:

•Timers: Can be used to start a macro or send a command

at a later time. Many timers are available including: daily, weekly, weekends only, weekdays only, or specific days and times.

•Quick Channel Lists: Used to group certain TV or Satellite channels together. For example, group all news channels together to make it easy to cycle through only the news channels. The five Quick Channel buttons can store a total of 50 channels.

•Unrecognized Code Collection: Used to collect unrecognized codes that can later be emailed to Sima for analysis.

•System Setup Transmission: Can be used to transmit system setup to either a personal computer or another SUR-25.

•Sleep Mode: Can be used to issue a command after a specified time.

•Version: Will display the version number of your SUR-25.

Using Timers

Timers are fantastic way to automate functions to occur in the future. At a pre-set time, the SUR-25 will “wake up” and send the command or macro of your choice. Combined with a Macro you can use the SUR-25 to record movies, turn on music, act as an alarm clock, or perhaps make your home look and sound like someone is home – even if you’re not.

Note: you can program up to eight timers at one time.
