Programming the remote control to operate a cable converter box, satellite receiver, VCR, DVD player, or HTIB (home theater in a box)

Your Toshiba TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate most Toshiba devices. To program your TV remote control to operate a non-Toshiba device or a Toshiba device that it is not preprogrammed to operate, follow the steps below. For details on using the remote control to operate the device, see page 17.

1 In the remote control code table (below and on the next page), find the code for your device. If more than one code is listed, try each one separately until you find one that works.

2 Set the Device Switch to the type of device you are programming the remote control to operate—CBL/SAT (for a cable converter box or satellite receiver), VCR (for a VCR or TV/VCR combo), or DVD (for a DVD player or HTIB [home theater in a box]).

3 While holding down RECALL, press the Channel Number buttons to enter the 3-digit code for your device.

4 To test the code, turn on the device, point the remote control at it, and press POWER.

–If the correct code was entered, the device will turn off.

–If the device does not respond, repeat steps 1–4 using another code.

Note: After programming the TV remote control to operate your other device, confirm that all necessary keys are operational. If some keys on the TV remote control do not operate certain features on your other device, reprogram the remote control using another code (if other codes are listed for your device). If, after trying all listed codes, the necessary buttons do not operate your device, use the device’s original remote control.

5 Remember to set the Device Switch back to “TV” to control the TV.

6 For future reference, write down the code(s) you used:

Some newer VCRs respond to either of two codes. These VCRs have a

 

 

switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.” If your VCR has this kind of switch and does

 

not respond to the codes for your VCR brand, set the switch to the other

 

position (“VCR1” or “VCR2”) and reprogram the remote control.

Remote control codes

In some cases you may not be able to operate your device with the TV remote control. Your other device may use a code that is not recognized by the TV remote control. If this happens, you will need to use the remote control provided with the device.
