Reassigning Device Keys - Radio Shack 8-IN-ONE REMOTE Owner's Manual

REASSIGNING DEVICE KEYS

The remote can be set up to control a second TV, VCR, DVD player, or
other device not listed on the device keys. For example, to control a TV, a
cable converter, and two VCRs,you can reassign the unused AUX key to
operate the second VCR as follows:
1. Find the codes for the device you want to program in
Manufacturer's Codes (starting on page 48) and write them
down or highlight them. For this example, locate the VCR
codes on page 52.
2. Turn on a device (e.g.,VCR) and, if necessary, load media
(e.g., videocassette).
NOTE: Please read steps 3 through 9 completely before proceeding.
Highlight or write down the codes and device you wish to program
before starting step 2.
3. On the remote, press AUX once. Then press and hold P until
the display changes from the current AUX device and code
(e.g., RCVR and 1023) to [CODE SET].
NOTE: Default values for device, its code, and time are shown
above.Your remote control settings may be different.
NOTE: If you wish to exit the programming mode at any time, press
EXIT once. An [EXIT] message appears as the remote control returns
to normal operation.
NOTE: If an [INVALID] message appears, you have inadvertently
pressed an incorrect key. Simply note your error and continue
programming.
4. Press SELECT once to begin programming. The last-selected
device and its current code (e.g., RCVR and 1023) appear.

5. Use or to navigate to the device type you want to assign
to the AUX key. For this example, locate VCR and its default
or
code (e.g., VCR and 0060).
6. Use the keypad to enter the first four-digit code for your
device and press SELECT once.
For example, to enter the first Sony VCR code (0035 on
page 52) press 0 twice, then 3, then 5, and then SELECT once.
If the code is entered correctly, [SUCCESS] appears.
7. Press EXIT to exit the programming mode.An [EXIT SETUP]
message appears as the remote returns to normal operation.
8. To verify the code works, aim the remote at the desired
device (e.g.,VCR), press the reassigned device key (e.g., AUX)
once and then press POWER once. The device should turn
off. If it does not respond, repeat steps 3 through 8, trying
each code for your brand until you find one that works. If
you cannot find a code that works, try Searching For Your
Code on page 10.
NOTE: If the device does not have a POWER key, press
9. To reassign other device keys, repeat steps 1 through 8, but
this time in step 3 substitute another device key you want to
reassign. Then in step 4, locate and select the device you own.
For example, let's say you own a LD player instead of DVD
player. In step 3, press DVD once (instead of AUX). In step 4,

use or to navigate to LDP instead of VCR. Then complete
the remaining instructions.

and its working code in the boxes below:
