Chapter

4.1 Controlling Your Television and other A/V Devices

The URC PLUS can also be used to control TVs and other A/V devices such as DVD players and

recorders. The URC PLUS uses InfraRed (IR) light signals to control other devices that the remote is

programmed to control. IR signals travel only short distances (40 feet or less), and cannot go through walls

or other solid objects. You must point the URC PLUS directly at these devices, with no objects blocking the

line of sight.

Figure 4-1 Controlling Devices using IR URC PLUS

You can program URC PLUS to control one TV and one AUX device. Use the remote control’s mode keys

(i.e., “STB”, “TV”, or “AUX”) to control a specific device. When pressed, the selected mode key will light up

confirming your choice. Then you can use the URC PLUS to control your STB, TV or AUX device.

You have to program the URC PLUS what TV and AUX devices you are using by either 1) entering the 4-

digit device code 2) doing an auto search.

NOTE:

 While the URC PLUS is in “STB” mode, the volume +/- and MUTE key signal will be sent to the TV.

 By Default, if the URC PLUS is in “STB” mode, the POWER key signal will be sent to the STB ONLY.

 If the URC PLUS is in “TV” mode, the “POWER” key signal will be sent to the TV ONLY.

 However, the POWER key can be configured to control both the STB and TV while the URC PLUS is

in “STB” mode, please refer to the section “Toggle Power Key Punch Through Functionality” in Chapter

4 for details.
