Checking The Codes; Using Learning - McIntosh C220 - REMOTE CONTROL Programming Manual

Checking the Codes

CHECKING THE CODES
If you have set up the remote using the procedure in
"Searching for Your Code", you may need to find out
which five-digit code is operating your quipment.
For example, to find out which code is assigned to
your TV:
1. Press TV once.
2. Press and hold SETUP until the red LED blinks
twice, then release.
3. Enter 9 9 0. The LED blinks twice.
4. To view the code for the first digit, press 1. Count
the LED blinks (for example, three blinks = 3), and
write down the number in the appropriate code listing
at the top of this column.
NOTE: If a code digit is 0, the LED does not blink.
5. Repeat step 4 for the four remaining digits, using
2 for the second digit, 3 for the third digit, 4 for the
fourth digit, and 5 for the fifth digit.
6. To check for other device codes, repeat steps 1—5,
substituting the device key the desired mode you
would like to check.

USING LEARNING

This universal remote control includes a Learning
feature (some models may not include Learning) so
you can add functions that are unique to your home
entertainment components (e.g.,VCR Tracking Up or
Down). However, there are some
considerations.
Learning Precautions
• Your original remote controls must be in working
order for learning to work properly.
• Learned keys are mode-specific, so each one can
store a unique function for each mode.
• Do not use the following keys for learning: Device
Keys, SETUP, or Record (•).
• Learning capacity is approximately 42 to 75 keys,
depending on the code being learned.
• Certain device functions are not learnable including
multi-frequency types, some
high frequency ones, and other unusual formats.
• For optimum learning, avoid high levels of ambi-
ent light such as natural sunlight or energy-efficient
fluorescent lights.
NOTE: Please have your original remote controls
handy before programming learning.
Programming a Learned Push-button
Programming a Learned Key
NOTE: If more than 10 seconds pass between key
presses, the remote exits programming.
1. Place the Potenza head-to-head (about 2" apart)
from your original remote control. Also locate the key
(on your original remote control) that you want the
Potenza to learn. Press the mode key you wish to learn
keys on.
2. Press and hold SETUP until the LED blinks twice,
then release.
3. Enter 9 7 5. The LED blinks twice.
NOTE: If the LED displays one long flash instead,
either your batteries are low,
or the Potenza has a memory fault. In either case, the
remote cannot learn a new key.
4. Press the key on the remote you wish to learn onto.
The feedback LED
will blink rapidly for three seconds, suggesting the
remote is ready to learn.
5. On the original remote, press and hold the key to be
learned. Continue
holding the key on the original remote until the Po-
tenza's LED blinks
twice.
NOTE: If the LED displays one long blink, a learning
error has occurred. Try
repeating this step again until a successful capture oc-
curs. If the function
is still not captured, press and hold SETUP to exit
programming and
review the "Learning Precautions" above. If needed,
also see "Troubleshooting"
below. After review, start programming again at step
1.
6. Repeat steps 4 through 5 for another key you would
like to learn onto.
