4.

Select either the Port or Device radio button to specify whether this button on the remote should be
associated with the Port (display device) or an actual Device (e.g. a DVD player added to the system
as a device) when it is pushed.

5.

The Endeleo Receiver will now accept the relevant command from the RC02 remote (i.e. Key 2 on
the remote will "Play" the Device (FIG. 32). .

Passthrough Mode (Inputs A – D)

Devices can also be placed into Passthrough Mode. Passthrough Mode allows an Endeleo TVM remote
control to be used to control TV channels being viewed through the UDM-0404, or devices connected to
the UDM-0404 (e.g. a DVD player). Passthrough Mode is available for Inputs A-D, as shown in FIG. 33.

The following steps must be taken for Passthrough Mode to function correctly:

1.

The Device must be added to the system as an Input.

2.

IR emitter (on the correct IR port) at the rear of the UDM-0404 must be connected to the device.

3.

The Device must be added to the system as a Device and be assigned its learned protocol.

4.

The Device’s Port must be configured for Passthrough Mode.

Configuring a Device for Passthrough Mode

The device must to be added to the system as both an Input and as a Device:

1.

Cable the device as an input coming into the rear of the chassis (e.g. into Input A as for a normal
input).

2.

Add the device as an input in the Inputs option. See theConfiguration - Inputs Page section on
page 41 fo
r details.

3.

Learn the device’s protocol using IR Learning – refer to the Configuration - Protocols Page section
on page 59 and
Advanced Administration section on page 67.

4.

Add the device into the Devices option as normal and assign it its IR protocol. See the
Configuration - Devices Page section on page 43 for details.

Ensure the correct key on the Endeleo Remote corresponds with the correct
command.
