Programming The Remote; Auto Find; Cable Box; Volume Override - Zenith Presentation Series Service Manual

PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE

If you're using Zenith products, the remote is already
programmed for most common codes: TV = 101, VCR =
201, CABLE = 353, and AUX = 401. For other brands, or
if your remote fails to control your Zenith products, you'll
have to program the remote.
After installing the batteries, follow these steps for each
product:
1. Press and hold PRG using a blunt pointed object.
Release PRG after the indicator light turns on.
2. Press the device button to be programmed (CATV,
VCR, AUX, or TV).
3. Enter the 3-digit product code from chart on next
page.
4. Press and release ENTER to save the code.
5. Point the remote at product and press POWER to test
the product's operation. If it does not turn on,
reprogram remote using a different code.
6. Write the codes on the label inside the battery
compartment for future reference.

AUTO FIND

If none of the codes in the code table operate your
equipment, use Auto Find to search for the proper code.
1. Turn on the product you want to operate.
2. Press and hold PRG using a blunt pointed object.
Release PRG after the indicator light turns on.
3. Press the key to be programmed (CATV, VCR, AUX, or
TV).
4. Enter "000", then press ENTER within two seconds.
Auto Find is active after the indicator light flashes
and remains lit.
5. Point the remote at the product.
6. Press and release POWER repeatedly, about once a
second, until your product turns off. The indicator
light turns off when you press POWER and on when
you release it.
7. Press ENTER immediately to save the code. The
indicator light flashes to indicate the code has been
saved.
8. Press POWER to turn On your product.
9. Test your product. If the remote fails to operate some
of the basic functions, use Auto Find again to search
for a better code. (Auto Find resumes its search after
the last code that was entered and saved in step 7).
NOTE: If the indicator light stays on as you press
POWER, Auto Find has tried all of the codes. If
the product you want to control has not turned
off, your remote will not work with that product.
To cancel Auto Find, press PRG at any time during
Auto Find.
