5 Programming the Remote Control
There are two ways you can program your remote control:
* The Pre-Programm rogrammed 3-Digit Code Method
* The Auto-Search Method
The Pre-Programmed Code Method allows you to setup all the buttons at once by entering 3-digit
code numbers that correspond to a particular Component's manufacturer/brand, so it's the fastest
and easiest of the two methods. (Code Tables are on the backside of this Instruction Sheet.) The
Auto-Search Method scans through all the codes in the remote control, one at a time.
IMPORTANT SETUP NOTES:
This pertains to all programming steps. When you are in setup mode in each component, a
component LED will light up for 30 seconds. If you do not press a button within 30 seconds, the LED
light will turn off and exit setup mode and you will need to start over.
When programming a combo unit, program as a VCR or DVD first.
