code is the one that will have the functions that more closely
match the device than the others, so it is advised to try them all.
See Step 9 below. (Press the UP or DOWN button within 20
seconds of beginning programming; otherwise the remote will
revert to the SETUP menu, and then after a period of time, it will
go back to the MAIN device page.) If there is more than one code
number assigned to your brand, try one code number at a time
until the correct code number is found (the number that turns off
the device). If the device turns off when you enter the three-digit
code, make note of the code. It will have at least some of the
functions in it that are needed to control the device.
8. Confirm that it is the right code by pressing the Power button.
After ensuring that the right code is entered, save the code by
pressing the SAVE button on the LCD.
9. Confirm that the right code number that matches the component
was entered by pressing other functional buttons. If any of the
buttons do not operate as they should, repeat from step 1.
10. Continue to program other components by repeating from step 1
(previous page).
11. Press EXIT at any time if you do not wish to proceed.
12. Exit from Preprogrammed mode by pressing the HOME button
and then exit from the SETUP mode by pressing the HOME button
once again.
USING LEARNING METHOD
The RV-8 remote can be programmed to operate a device by
“teaching” the correct commands to the device buttons on the main
screen menu; to the two sub-pages within each device button; to the
31 buttons and the joystick located in the middle of the remote control.
The RV-8 remote learns these commands by receiving infrared signals
directly from your existing remote controls. The RV-8 remote receives
these signals through its learning eye, located at the top of the unit.
Apart from the PAGE, HOME and FAV buttons, which cannot be taught,
the RV-8 remote has the capability of learning up to 530 commands.
Note:
Function buttons are buttons that can be assigned a command to control
a particular action for a device. Commonly used function buttons include
the 2 pages of sub-commands within each of the 10 devices: channel up/
down, volume up/down, menu, guide, exit, info, digits 0-9 and the center
of the joystick (thumbpad).
CAUTION! Do not edit the Main, Zone 2 or Zone 3 but-
tons. Doing so will remove RV-8 control.
IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEMBER
If the remote control fails to learn a function after a first attempt:
• Keep the remotes stable by placing them on a flat surface.
• Make sure the original remote is pointed at the learning eye at
the top end of the case and is not at an angle.
• Make sure both remotes’ batteries aren't low.
• Avoid programming the RV-8 remote under bright lights,
which can interfere with the infrared signals.
• Some buttons require a single, short push of the original
remote's button; other “repeating” buttons, such as the VOL
button, require that you “press and hold” the original remote’s
button until “Good” flashes twice on the LCD screen.
• Try varying the distance between the remotes to find an optimal
distance at which the codes are learned on the first or second try.
