Control Other Devices with the Remote Controls
Use the remote control’s mode buttons, SAT (satellite receiver), TV (for a TV),
VCR (for a VCR or a DVD player), and AUX (“auxiliary,” for a second TV, a
second VCR, a DVD, a tuner, or an audio amplifier) to set the remote to the
right mode for the device. To change the mode, press the button for the device
you want the remote to control. The mode button lights for two seconds to show
you’ve set the remote to that mode.
Limited Mode
You can program your remote control in limited mode to keep from accidentally
changing the channel on your TV or VCR. When you use the remote to control
your TV in limited mode, you will only be able to use the POWER, MUTE, and
VOLUME buttons. Also, when you use the remote to control your VCR in
limited mode, you will only be able to use the power and VCR function buttons.
The section Setting Up the Remote to Control Other Devices has a step that tells
the remote control to go into limited mode.
Set Up the Remotes to Control Other Devices
Over the next few pages we tell you how to use the remote to control a TV, a
VCR, a DVD player, a tuner, or an amplifier.
To use the remote to control other devices, you must first program it to control
these other devices. You can do this by either following the instructions in Set
Up the Remote Control below, or the Scan for Device Codes procedure
described on page 109.
If you are programming the remote to control a combination device, such as a
TV/VCR or a VCR/DVD, program the remote control in one mode, and then
repeat the procedure in the other mode. For example, to program the remote to
control a TV/VCR using code 748: Follow the instructions to program the
remote to control the TV using code 748, and then repeat the instructions for the
VCR using the same code.
