Programming the AUX or DVR·AUX Key
If you want the AUX or DVR·AUX key to control an additional component (an additional TV,
DVD, satellite or cable box, for example), it is necessary for you to preprogram the AUX or
DVR·AUX key.
1. Press and hold the AUX or DVR·AUX key. The illuminated ON·OFF key
turns on.
2. While holding down the AUX or DVR·AUX key, press and release the
AUX DVR·AUX KEY CONTROLS:
OR
Additional TV
Additional VCR or DVR
Additional DVD
Additional AUDIO
(includes A/V receiver, AMP, tuner)
Additional satellite or cable box
HDTV
number key for the component you wish to control. (See the chart below.)
The illuminated ON·OFF key turns off.
Note: CDs can only be programmed under the DVD or an AUX key. HDTV tuners (STB)
can only be programmed under an AUX key.
3. Release the AUX or DVR·AUX key. The illuminated ON·OFF key blinks
four times and then turns off. The AUX or DVR·AUX key is now "set" to
control whichever component you selected.
4. Next, program the AUX or DVR·AUX key to control the brand of
component you have. Remember to consult the appropriate component
code list. For instance, if you have programmed the AUX or DVR·AUX

Manual Code Search and Entry

If your component's brand isn't listed in the Code Lists, or if you have tried all of the codes for your
brand and the remote does not operate your component, try one of the Code Search methods below.
Both Code Search methods cycle through all of the codes in the Code Lists in the event that your
component's code is listed under another brand.
Note: The Manual Code Search method may take a long time because the remote searches through all of the codes in
its memory. Therefore, if your brand is listed in the Brand Codes or the Code Lists, first try the Brand Code Search or
the Direct Code Entry method.
To exit without saving at any point in the Manual Code Search, press
! TIP:
and release the CLEAR key.
1. Manually turn on the component you want the remote to control.
2. Press and hold the component key you wish to program. The illuminated
ON·OFF key turns on and remains on.
3. While holding the component key down, press and hold the ON·OFF key.
The illuminated ON·OFF key turns off.
4. After holding down both keys for three seconds, the illuminated ON·OFF
key turns back on.
5. Release both keys. The illuminated ON·OFF key remains on.
6. Press and release the ON·OFF key repeatedly until your component turns
off. Each time you press the ON·OFF key, the illuminated ON·OFF key
blinks, and the next code in the list is sent. This process continues until all
the codes in the Code Lists have been searched. If your component turns off,
you have found the correct code. (If it cycles through and the illuminated
ON·OFF key blinks four times and turns off, all codes have been searched.
The Manual Code Search method is exited.) Because there are so many
codes, you may have to press the ON·OFF key many times—possibly up to
280 times.
7. Once you have found the correct code, save the new code by pressing and
releasing the STOP key. The illuminated ON·OFF key turns off. You must
press the STOP key to save the code or the correct code will not be stored!
8. When you press the STOP key, the code is stored.
9. Retrieve the code your remote programmed by finishing the Code Retrieval
process found on page 8.

Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality

To confirm that the component key is programmed with the correct code for maximum functionality, test
the component. If some of the component's features do not work, different codes in the list can be tried
until you find the code that allows the remote to control the majority of your component's functions.
Different codes can provide different levels of functionality. To test for maximum functionality:
1. Once the code has been stored (see Manual Code Search and Entry Method), use the remote to
attempt to control a variety of the component's functions. If the stored code controls the majority of
the component's functions, programming is complete. If the stored code does not give maximum
functionality, try another code.
2. In that case, repeat the Manual Code Search and Entry Method. When the component turns off for
the first time, do not press the STOP key, which would store the code. Instead, with the unit now
off, continue to press the ON·OFF key repeatedly until the unit turns back on. Once the unit turns
back on, you have found another code that operates the component. Press the STOP key.
3. Test the functionality again (See step 1). If the stored code controls the majority of the component's
functions, programming is complete. If not, try another code.
4. Repeat the Manual Code Search and Entry Method. Each time a code turns the component on or off,
you have found a code that operates the remote and needs to be tested for maximum functionality.
Continue through the code lists, cycling through the codes you have already tried, until you find
one that offers maximum functionality.

Auto Code Search and Entry

The Auto Code Search and Entry Method enables the remote to automatically search through all the
codes in the Code Lists for the one that operates your component.
Note: The Auto Code Search method may take a long time because the remote searches through all codes in its
memory. Therefore, if your brand is listed in the Brand Codes or the Code Lists, first try the Brand Code Search or the
Direct Code Entry method.
To exit without saving at any point in the Auto Code Search, press and
! TIP:
release the CLEAR key.
1. Manually turn on the component you want the remote to control.
2. Press and hold the component key you wish to program. The illuminated
ON·OFF key turns on and remains on.
3. While holding the component key down, press and hold the ON·OFF key.
The illuminated ON·OFF key turns off.
4. After holding down both keys for three seconds, the illuminated ON·OFF
key turns back on.
5. Release both keys. The illuminated ON·OFF key remains on.
Note: If you press an invalid key during Auto Code Search, the illuminated ON·OFF key
blinks four times and turns off. The last programmed code under that component key
is retained.
6. Press and release the PLAY key, then wait five seconds to see if your
component turns off. If your component does not respond, continue to press
the PLAY key every five seconds until your component turns off. Each time
you press the PLAY key, the illuminated ON·OFF key blinks ten times and a
block of 10 codes is sent to your component. This process continues until all
of the codes in the Code Lists have been searched. (If your component has
not turned off after all codes have been searched, the illuminated ON·OFF
key blinks four times and turns off. The Auto Code Search Entry method
is exited.)
7. When your component turns off, you know the correct code is in the last
block of 10 codes sent. Press and release the REVERSE key. Wait two
seconds to see if your component turns on again. If your component does
not respond, continue to press the REVERSE key every two seconds until
your component turns on again. This will isolate the correct code in the last
block of codes sent. Each time the REVERSE key is pressed, the illuminated
ON·OFF key blinks.
Note: If you accidentally press the REVERSE key after your component responds, press and
release the FORWARD key. Then, wait two seconds to see if your component turns off again.
