Code Retrieval

Once you’ve programmed the remote to control your devices,

you may want to record the codes for future reference. If

you used the Direct Code Entry method, this is easy. Just

find the codes you entered and make a note of them in the

boxes below. If you used one of the Code Search methods to

program your remote or if you used the Direct Entry method

but don’t remember the code, you will need to retrieve each

device’s five-digit code. Retrieving the actual code and writing

it down will save you time if you ever need to program the

remote again (e.g., if programming is lost when you change

the batteries). If the codes are recorded, you can use the

Direct Entry method to reprogram your remote to control your

devices, which is quick and easy.

1. Press and hold the device

key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD,

VCR•AUX) whose code you

wish to retrieve. The ON•OFF

key turns on. Keep pressing the

device key.

Accessing Device Menus and Guides

Many devices use on-screen menus and guides to help you

navigate through all their features and programming. While

this remote may not access every menu or guide system

of every device model, it does offer some menu and guide

functionality.
To use a device’s on-screen menu or guide system, you first

have to put the remote in Menu or Guide Mode.
1. Make sure your devices are turned on and your TV is set

to the correct device input (use the INPUT key to toggle

through inputs when in TV Mode.)

2. Press the device key whose menu you want to access.

4. Use the VOL+/- and CH+/- keys to

navigate through the on-screen

menu system or guide. To select the

highlighted item, press the OK key.

TIP: If the remote doesn’t respond,

check to see that the ON•OFF key is

still blinking. The ON•OFF key times

out after 20 seconds. If this happens,

just press the MENU key again, and

then retry your selection.

Exiting Menu/Guide Mode

The remote automatically times out of Menu or Guide Mode

after 20 seconds of inactivity (no keys being pressed). At that

time, the remote clears the displayed menu from the TV.
If you want to exit the Menu Mode yourself, press the

corresponding device key on the remote (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC,

DVD, VCR•AUX). The ON•OFF key turns off.

indicating you are in Menu or Guide Mode.

ON•OFF key

Note: All TV codes begin with the number 1; all VCR and DVR

codes begin with the number 2; all DVDs, the number 3; and

all satellite receivers, cable boxes and digital TV converters,

the number 5.

5. Repeat step 4 until you have retrieved all five numbers in

the code. After the fifth number is retrieved, the ON•OFF

key blinks briefly, then turns off.

TIP: To exit the Code Retrieval Mode at any time, press the

GO BACK key.
Note: If you press an invalid key during the Code Retrieval

process, the remote will not respond. If you do not press a

valid Code Retrieval key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, VCR•AUX,

INFO, GO BACK), Code Retrieval times out after 15 seconds.

The ON•OFF key blinks four times, and then turns off.

2. While holding the device key down, press and hold the

INFO key. The ON•OFF key turns off. After holding down

both keys for three seconds, the ON•OFF key turns back

on.

3. Release both keys. The ON•OFF key remains on.
4. Starting with the number 1 key, press and release each

number key on the keypad in the following order: 1-9, then

0. The number that causes the ON•OFF key to blink is the

first number of the code. As you find each number of the

code, write it down for future reference.

Changing A Key’s Device Type

Each device key is associated with a type of device—the TV is

preset to search for TVs, SAT•CBL•DTC for satellite receivers,

cable boxes or digital TV converters, DVD for DVD players, and

VCR•AUX for VCRs or DVRs. To program these keys to control

a different kind of device, you have to reassign them first.

Reassigning the VCR•AUX Key To Control Other
Devices
The VCR•AUX key defaults to control a VCR or DVR. If you want

the VCR•AUX key to control a different device (an additional

TV, DVD, satellite, cable box or digital TV converter, for

example), you must reassign it.

1. Press and hold the VCR•AUX key. The ON•OFF key turns on.
2. While holding down the VCR•AUX key, press and release the

number key on the keypad for the device you wish to control

(see the chart below). The ON•OFF key turns off.

3. Release the VCR•AUX key. The ON•OFF key blinks four

times and then turns off. The VCR•AUX key is now set to

control the device type you selected.

4. Follow the directions in the auto, brand, direct entry, or

manual code search to program the VCR•AUX key.
