Programming the Remote Control

The satellite receiver's remote can be programmed to control most brands of
remote controllable TVs. The remote is programmed to control most RCA, GE
and P S TVs, VCRs and cable boxes. The remote needs to be
RO CAN
programmed to control other manufacturers' brands.

Testing the Remote control

To determine whether the universal remote needs to be programmed, turn
on the TV, point the remote at the device you want to control, and press the
button corresponding to that device. Then press ON•OFF or CH ^ (channel
up) or CH v (channel down) to see if the TV responds to the remote
commands. If not, the remote needs to be programmed.
Using Automatic Code Search
The following instructions can be used to program the remote to control each of
the devices connected to your TV. (The AUX key cannot be programmed using
the automatic code search.) If you want to exit the automatic code search
without programming any of your devices, press CLEAR until the LED turns off.
1. Turn on the device you want to control (VCR, satellite receiver, etc.)
2. Press and hold the device's button (VCR, SAT, etc.). While holding the device
button, press and hold ON•OFF until the red light on the remote control
turns on, then release both buttons.
3. Press and release PLAY, then wait 5 seconds or until the LED stops flashing.
At this point the remote control is searching for the correct code to program.
If, after 5 seconds, the device you want to control does not turn off, press
PLAY again to tell the remote to search the next set of codes.
Continue pressing PLAY until the device turns off or you have searched
through all of the codes. There are 20 total sets of codes. If the device does
not turn off after pressing PLAY 20 times, then the remote cannot control
that particular device.
If the device you want to control does turn off:
1. Press and release REVERSE, then wait 2 seconds. Repeat this step until the
device turns back on.
2. To finish, press and hold STOP until the red light on the remote control turns
off.
NOTE
This remote control may not operate
all models of the brands that are
shown. Use the codes at the end of
this section, or those on the sheet
packed with your remote, to control
these models.
