Setting Up Power Control
By default, the power key on your remote
operates the appropriate device for the
current mode. You can choose to set up
this key to operate multiple devices each
time it is pressed, regardless of the current
mode.
To change your power control:
1. Press SELECT and CBL at the same
time until the light blinks twice.
2. Using the keypad on the remote, press
9 9 8.
3. Press one of the following keys to
choose the way the Power key should
operate:
• Press TV to turn on the set-top and
then the TV.
• Press VCR to turn on the set-top,
followed by the TV and the VCR.
• Press AUX to turn on the set-top,
followed by the TV and the auxiliary
device.
• Press CBL to turn on the set-top,
followed by the TV, the VCR, and
the auxiliary device.
• Press POWER to control all devices
individually. This is the default
setting.
The light blinks twice to indicate that the
change was accepted.
If your remote is set to control power on
more than one device, the remote always
defaults to CBL mode after you turn the
devices on or off. Also, if you press Power
within three seconds of pressing any mode
key (VCR, TV, AUX, or CBL), the power
key only affects the associated device. For
example, if you press the VCR key and
then press the Power key within three
seconds, the remote control only turns on
the VCR, regardless of the power control
setting.
Note: Your cable service provider will send
nightly programming updates to your set-
top (such as program guide information).
You should leave your set-top on at all
times so that it can receive these updates.
To reset all of the advanced features to the
default settings, except the codes you have
programmed (TV, VCR, AUX, and CBL)
and any mode keys that you may have
reassigned, follow these steps.
Putting It Back the Way I Got It
1. Press SELECT and CBL at the same
time until the light blinks twice.
2. Using the keypad, press 9 8 0. The
light blinks four times.
That’s it! All of the advanced features have
been reset to their factory defaults.
