Direct Code Setup

Each code consists of five digits from 0 to 9 and is defined in the main UEI data base.

The leading digit device indicators are as follows:

This is the correct leading indicator per specs.

Cable

VCR

Audio

The five digit code obtained by the user from the product code book shall be programmed as follows:

[Mode] <<SETUP>> <Digit> <Digit> <Digit> <Digit> <Digit>

The single LED or current mode LED shall blink once upon each digit entry except for the last digit, where it shall

blink two times to confirm that a valid code has been programmed. The unit shall turn off the LED, automatically

exit the programming mode, return to the idle mode and restore the last preprogrammed codes under the

following conditions:

If any other key is pressed besides a digit key, the unit shall display one long blink, exit programming state, and

restore the last preprogrammed code.

Upon entry of an invalid key sequence or invalid code, the remote control shall display one long blink of the

single LED or current physical mode LED and return to the last preprogrammed code.

The unit shall exit programming state and return to the last preprogrammed code if 10 seconds has elapsed

between digit entries.

Library Search

In the event that the device code for a particular target unit is unknown, the user shall be able to cycle the

remote through the available codes for that device mode and sample functions from each code in order to find

the code, which properly operates the desired target device. All keys are available to be sampled, provided they

are applicable to that. The last function that was sampled before Ch up/Ch down key presses will be designated

function to send for each Ch up+/Ch down- key press. Invalid key presses shall be ignored while in the

programming state.

To cycle through each available device code and sample its functions:

[Mode] <<SETUP>> <9> <9> <1> < Device group number> [Function] <Ch up/Ch down> [Function]

The available FUNCTIONS within a code may be sampled as many times as desired until advancing to the next

code by pressing the CH UP key or returning to the previous code by pressing the CH DOWN key. After

sampling FUNCTIONS (0, 1, 2, 3, Power, Volume Up, Play, Stop, etc.), the user can continue the search with the

previous (CH DOWN) or next (CH UP) code which will send the FUNCTION that was last sampled.
