Programming Methods (continued)
4. Press and release PLAY, then wait 5 seconds or until the device button stops flashing. At
this point the RCU is searching for the correct code to program. If, after 5 seconds, the
device you want to operate does not turn off, press PLAY again to tell the RCU to search the
next set of codes. Continue pressing and releasing PLAY until the device turns off or you
have searched through all of the codes. The device buttons flash when all codes have been
searched, the device button turns off, and after 30 seconds the RCU exits the Automatic
Code Search mode.
If the component you want to control does turn off:
1. Press and release REVERSE, then wait 2 seconds. Repeat this step until the component
turns back on.
2. To finish, press STOP and the devices buttons on the RCU turn off. The RCU will automatically
exit the Automatic Code Search mode.
Using Direct Entry
1. Turn on the device you want to operate (TV, DVD player, etc.)
2. Look up the brand and code number(s) for the device in the Remote Code List at the end
of this booklet.
3. Press and hold the device button you want to program ((TV, AUX, etc.) on the RCU.
4. Enter the 4-digit code from the Remote Code List.
5. Release the device button, if all the mode buttons flash, you have entered an invalid
code. Otherwise, point the RCU at the device, and then press the ON/OFF button to see
if the device responds to the command.
• If you get no response, repeat these steps using the next code listed for
your brand, until the device responds to the remote commands.
• If you try all the codes for your device brand and none work, try the
automatic code search method. If automatic code search doesn’t find the
code, the remote is not compatible with your component.
Because the RCU controls more than one device, you must first “tell” it which device you
wish to operate. For example, if you wish to operate the TV, you must first press the TV
mode button on the RCU to put it in the TV mode.
The RCU stays in the chosen mode until you change it. If the RCU is in the TV mode, you
must change the mode in order to operate other components. For example, if you are in
the TV mode and you wish to turn off the Cable Box, you must first press the CAB/SAT
button then the On/Off button. Return to the TV mode by pressing the TV mode button.
