Tips On Learning
You.can.only.learn.one.device.type.under.any.one.Mode.button.e.g..
only.learn.TV.codes.under.the.TV Mode,.DVD.codes.under.the.DVD
Mode,.etc..If.you.are.trying.to.learn.from.a."Universal".remote,.it.might.
have.more.than.one.code.type.stored.under.a.Mode..Try.learning.from.
another.remote.to.see.if.there's.a.problem.with.the.type.or.brand.of.
remote.you.are.trying.to.learn.from..
a. Some functions from some types of remotes might not be able to
be learned.
b. No functions may be stored under the SETUP button.
c. Only one original device type can be learned per individual Mode.
d. Use.fresh.batteries.for.both.the.Learning.Remote.and.the.Original.
Remote.
e. Do.not.attempt.to.Learn.directly.under.an.incandescent.or.
low-energy.light.as.these.can.cause.interference.with.the.IR.
transmissions..Keep.at.least.3.feet.away.from.any.such.light.sources.
f. Perform.a.Master.Clear.(see.page.22).before.learning.and.try.learning.
2.or.3.commands.initially..Then.carry.out.a.Master.Clear.before.
completely.learning.your.original.remote's.commands.
g..Carry.out.a."Mode.Clear".before.learning.a.Mode.to.make.sure.there.
are.no.previously.learned.commands.for.that.Mode.
h. Place.the.original.remote.end-to-end.with.the.Learning.Remote.so.
the.IR.transmitters.on.both.remotes.are.directly.in.line.with.each.
other..You.may.need.to.adjust.the.height.of.either.remote.to.achieve.
this..
i. Keep.the.distance.between.the.two.remotes.to.approximately.1.inch.
and.do.not.move.or.change.the.distance.between.the.two.remotes.
until.you.have.learned.all.the.required.buttons.for.that.Mode.
j. Avoid.learning.your.original.remote.Volume/Mute.buttons.unless.
you.are.sure.these.operate.the.same.device.e.g..some.original.DVD.
remotes.include.TV.Volume/Mute.button.control.and.can.be.two.
different.types.of.code.
k. Avoid.learning.your.original.remote.VCR.or.DVD.buttons.unless.
you.are.sure.these.operate.the.same.device.e.g..some.original.TV.
remotes.include.VCR.or.DVD.button.control.and.can.be.two.different.
types.of.code.
l..Learning.a.button.can.take.up.to.3.seconds..Do.not.release.the.button.
being.Learned.until.SUCCESS.or.LEARN.ERROR.has.been.displayed.
