ENGLISH
Programming The Remote Control
The Universal Remote Control can be programmed to
operate many manufacturers’ components, using the
component function buttons for VCR, DVD, AUX, RCVR,
TV, DTV CABLE or DBS. Follow the procedures for
programming your Remote Control with or without a code
for the component.
Note:Determine the manufacturer of the component and look
in the table for the code.
Programming with a Code
Procedure
1. Confirm that the external component is plugged in and
operating.
2. Turn the component off.
3. Press  and  together, for at least 5
seconds. After 5 seconds, the illuminated mode
(component) buttons will begin to flash. Release the
ACTION and POWER buttons.
4. Press appropriate component button on the Remote
Control 
VCR, DVD (CD), AUX (VCR2 or TAPE),
RCVR, DTV, CABLE or DBS.
 The component button
will illuminate steadily and all others will go out.
5. Enter the 3-digit component code using the Remote
Control numeric keypad (0 ~ 9 buttons). The component
button will blink twice.
6. Press the Remote Control   to test the
component. If the procedure was successful, the
component will turn on and the component key will blink
twice and then go out.
Note:If the component does not operate with the Remote
Control, repeat steps 3 through 6 using another code
(some brands have multiple codes). If an incorrect code
is entered, or if the procedure takes longer than 30
seconds, the programming will fail.
Programming without a Code
This procedure searches all codes and is called the
“sequence method.”
1. Confirm that the external component is plugged in and
on.
2. Turn the component off.
3. Press  and  together, for at least 5
seconds. After 5 seconds, the illuminated mode
(component) buttons will begin to flash. Release the
ACTION and POWER buttons.
4. Press appropriate component button on the Remote
Control. The component button will illuminate steadily
and all others will go out.
5. Press the   button to set the remote control into
the step and set mode.
6. Point the remote control towards the component.
7. Press VOL X(the mode key will blink three times), then
press the Remote Control   button to test the
component. Continue this process until the proper code
is found. If the procedure was successful, the component
will turn on.
Note:Each time you press the VOL X button, make sure that the
component key blinks twice before pressing the POWER
button.
8. Once the device responds, press   to store the
code. The mode (component) button will blink twice.
Note:It may take many attempts before the correct code
is found. If you miss a code, press WVOL, then press
the   button to test the component.
Component Codes
The Universal Remote Control is capable of operating
many component brands after entering a code. Some
components may not operate because the codes are not
available due to limited memory. The Universal Remote
Control does not control all features found in each model. Default Modes for Remote Control
