Setting the AUX Mode

Optimus ® System 5100 Owner's Manual
Programming the AUX mode of the remote control is slightly
different, because this mode can be used to control a cable box,
second TV or VCR, the Bose™ Companion System, or even an
additional DSS receiver. Follow these steps to set the AUX mode:
1. Press and hold the P key for about 3 seconds, until the four mode
keys begin to flash.
2. Press the AUX key.
3. If your going to use your remote to control your Bose™ system,
cable box, or laser disc player, then skip this step
—or—
If you are going to use AUX to control another DSS receiver, TV, or
VCR, press the mode key you want.
(The mode key you select will flash twice, but the AUX mode key
will remain on.)
4. See the Appendix on Page 78 for a list of codes by product and
manufacturer, and enter the 3-digit code for the device you want to
program into AUX.
5. After all 3 digits are entered, the mode key flashes twice if a correct
code has been entered.
For example, to program the AUX key for a Mitsubishi TV:
Press and hold the P key. After 3 seconds, all mode keys start
flashing.
Press AUX. The AUX key is now selected, and all the others are
turned off.
Press TV. The TV key flashes twice, and the AUX key remains on.
Press 1, 5, 0. You will see the AUX key flash twice.
6. There are multiple codes for a single brand of product. To see if the
remote code is correct, point the remote toward the product it
should now control, and press power, channel : or ; , etc. If the
product doesn't respond to the remote commands, repeat these
steps using the next code listed for that manufacturer.
