 Programming Your Remote
Your G\b universal remote control is designed to 
control multiple audio/v\cideo devices suc\f as \cTV, 
DVD, DVR, satellite, cable \cand audio using only\c one 
remote. To use t\fis remote, you will need to program 
it to control t\fe devices of your c\foice. T\fere are two 
ways to program t\fe remote - direct code entry or 
auto code searc\f. 
 
Direct Co\fe Entry (Recommen\fe\f)
1.  Locate t\fe Remote Code List provided 
in t\fis manual. Fin\cd t\fe DEVICE 
C\bTEGORY you wis\f to program (for 
example TV, DVD, CBL/S\bT, DVR/
\bUX) and t\fen find t\fe BR\bND of t\fat 
device. Circle all t\fe codes und\cer t\fat 
brand. \bxample: For \ca G\b TV, locate t\fe 
TV code section t\fen c\circle all of t\fe 
G\b TV codes.
2.  Manually turn on t\c\fe device you wis\f 
to control. 
3.  Press and \fold t\fe SETUP button  until t\fe red indicator lig\ft st\cays on 
(approximately 4 seconds) \cand t\fen 
release t\fe SETUP button.
4.  Press and release t\fe desired device 
button on t\fe remote (TV, DVD, CBL/
S\bT, DVR/\bUX). T\fe red indicator will 
blink once and t\fen \cremain on.  
5.  \bnter t\fe first 4-digit code previously 
found in t\fe code lis\ct using t\fe 
number buttons on \ct\fe remote. If t\fe 
code entered is a valid code, t\fe red 
indicator lig\ft will\c turn off. If t\fe code 
entered is not a valid code, t\fe red 
indicator lig\ft will\c flas\f and remain on 
allowing you to re-enter t\fe code. 
  Note: If no buttons are pressed for 10 
seconds, t\fe remote will exit t\fe SE\bUP 
mode and you will \fave to start over.

6.  Point t\fe remote at t\fe device.\c Press 
t\fe POWER button—if t\fe device\c 
turns off, no furt\fer programming is  
required for t\fat device. I\cf t\fe device 
does not turn off, return to step 3 
and use t\fe next code\c found in t\fe 
code list . Continue t\fis process until 
a code for your device is found.
7.  Repeat t\fis process for eac\f device \c
(for example TV, DVD, CBL/S\bT, DVR/
\bUX) in your \fome entertainment 
system you wis\f to control. Four 
devices can be programmed. 
Programming Notes
•  If your device does not \crespond to t\fe remote 
after trying all codes liste\cd or your brand is not 
listed in t\fe code li\cst , use t\fe Auto Code \cSearc\f 
met\fod to program your remote.
•  Sometimes t\fe first code t\fat “works” wit\f your 
device may operate o\cnly a few functions of your 
device. T\fere may be anot\fer co\cde in t\fe code 
list t\fat performs more functions. Try ot\fer codes 
from t\fe code list for \cmore functionality.
•  Wit\f t\fe Direct Code \bntry met\fod, you can 
program any device but\cton to control any device 
in your \fome entertainment system.  
For example, you can use t\fe DVR/\bUX device 
button to control an audio receiver or a DVD, VCR, 
satellite device, et\cc. 
•  For combination devi\cces, you may \fave to enter a 
code for eac\f device. \cFor example, for a \cVCR/DVD
