About Your Remote

®
Your new AT8400
AllTouch
Remote Control
("remote") functions as four remote controls
in one to operate your TV, VCR, cable set-top
device (CBL), and an additional device (AUX),
such as a stereo receiver or an amplifier.
In addition, the remote provides advanced
features such as Personal Video Recorder
(PVR) controls for certain cable set-top
devices and the Picture-In-Picture (PIP)
feature.
The CH , CH , and number keys are locked
to control your CBL device while Vol , Vol ,
and Mute are locked to control your TV. All
other features are based on the last mode you
selected. As a universal remote, the AT8400
AllTouch remote reduces your need to keep
up with several remote controls. Want to
control your VCR? Don't bother looking for
your VCR remote. Just press the VCR mode
key on your AT8400 remote and program
your VCR as desired.
Note: If you have questions or concerns
about the operation of this remote, contact
your cable service provider.
Batteries
The remote requires two alkaline AA batteries.
A diagram inside the battery compartment of
the remote indicates proper placement of the
batteries.

Setting Up Your Remote

The mode keys are programmed with most
of the popular brands of electronic devices.
Therefore, before you perform these
procedures, you should test each mode
key to see if it is already programmed.
To test the mode key, turn on your device,
press the mode key for that device, and
then press POWER on the remote control to
verify that the power to the device turns off.

To Set Up a Mode Key

Follow these steps to set up a mode key:
1. Find the code(s) for your brand of device
in one of the setup code lists in this guide.
2. Turn on your device.
3. Press and hold the SELECT key and the
appropriate mode key for that device
until all the mode keys blink twice. For
example, to set up the VCR key, press
and hold SELECT and VCR.
4. Enter the setup code for the device. The
mode keys blink twice to indicate that
the code was accepted.
Notes:
• The setup codes for each mode key
appear on both the front and the back
of this guide.
• As you press each digit in the setup
code, the mode key should blink. If
the mode key does not blink, the
remote did not accept the digit. Enter
that digit again.
5. Point the remote control toward the
device and press POWER,
or CH to test the device.
6. Did the device operate correctly?
• If yes, go to step 7.
• If no, repeat steps 3 through 5 using a
different setup code.
Note: If all of the codes listed for your
brand of device fail to operate your
device properly, go to the To Search for
Codes section of this guide for instructions.
7. Repeat steps 1 through 5 for each mode
key you want to set up.
