Remote Control Setup and Operation
To install batteries in the remote control:
1. On the back of the remote, push the tab and lift off the battery cover.
2. Insert two new AA alkaline batteries. Match the + and - marks on
the batteries to the + and - marks in the battery case.
3. Press the battery cover back into place. The tab should click when
the cover is locked.
4. Test the unit by pressing PWR and any mode key (i.e., AUX, CBL, VCR,
etc.). If the batteries are inserted correctly, the LED will blink once.
NOTE: The batteries will usually last about six months under normal
use. When batteries need replacement, the remote will blink twice with
every key press. Simply replace them and the remote control will be
restored to its full functionality, including favorite settings.
Setup Using Preprogrammed Codes
The Model 990 remote can be programmed to operate other audio or video
components in your system. The TNR button is used exclusively for control of
the Model 990. To program the remote to control another device, you must enter
a four-digit code. Codes for a wide variety of devices and brands are provided
in the following pages. More than one setup code number may work with your
device. You should test the functions for each of the code numbers that work
with your device to determine the best one for your particular unit.
The procedure for setting up the Model 990 remote to control a TV/VCR is
different—see Programming TV/VCR Control below.
NOTE: Some devices, such as CD players and DVD players that do not
have power buttons on their original remote controls, may not shut off
during programming. For these devices, it may be necessary to first
store the setup code number and then test functions like PLAY, STOP,
etc, to determine if the correct number has been selected.
To program using four-digit codes:
1. Turn on the device you would like the remote control to operate,
either manually or with its original remote control.
2. Find the four-digit setup code number for your device from the
tables on pages 43 to 47.
3. On the Model 990 remote, press the component key (near the top of
the remote) that corresponds to the device you want to control.
You can choose from CBL, AUX, VCR, TV, SAT, CD, or AMP.
NOTE: The codes for controlling DVD players are programmed into the
AUX button.
4. Press and hold SETUP on the remote until the red LED at the top
of the remote blinks twice, then release SETUP.
5. Enter the first four-digit code for your component.
The LED should blink twice. If it does not, then repeat steps 3, 4, and 5
above, using the same code.
6. Aim the remote at the component and press PWR once.
The component should turn off. If it does not respond, repeat steps 3, 4, and
5, trying each code for your brand until you find one that works. If it still does
not work, try searching for the code (see Searching For Your Code, below).
7. Repeat the process for other components you wish to control with
the Model 990 remote.
Programming TV/VCR Control
The Model 990 can control TV/VCR combo units, but the procedure is somewhat
different than entering codes to control other components. As with other com-
ponents, you must enter a four-digit code. Codes for many TV/VCR brands are
provided in the following pages. More than one setup code number may work
with your device. You should test the functions for each of the code numbers
that work with your device to determine the best one for your particular unit.
If you want to control TV functions besides power on/off, you may need to enter
a separate TV code, as described below.
To program TV/VCR control:
1. Turn on the TV/VCR, either manually or with its original remote
control, and insert a video cassette.
2. Find the four-digit code for your TV/VCR from the tables on pages
TK to TK. Your TV/VCR may have a separate TV code listed. If so, be
sure to note both codes.
3. On the Model 990 remote, press VCR.
4. Press and hold SETUP until the red LED blinks twice, then release SETUP.
5. Enter the first four-digit code for your component.
If the code entry is performed correctly, the LED will blink twice. If it does
not, then repeat steps 3, 4, and 5, using the same four-digit code.
6. Aim the remote at the TV/VCR and press PWR once. The TV/VCR
should turn off. If it does not respond, repeat steps 3, 4, and 5, trying
each code for your brand until you find one that works. If it still does
not work, try searching for the code (see Searching For Your Code).
7. If your component has a separate TV code listed, press TV on the
Model 990 remote control.
The LED will blink twice.
8. Enter the four-digit TV code for your TV/VCR combo.
If the code is entered correctly, the LED will blink twice. If it does not,
then repeat steps 7 and 8 using the same four-digit code.
Searching for Your Code
If your device does not respond to the remote after you have tried all codes
listed for your brand, or if your brand is not listed at all, try searching for
your code.
To search for a code for your component:
1. On the Model 990 remote, press the button near the top of the
remote for the type of device you want to control.
You can choose CBL, AUX, VCR, TV, SAT, CD, or AMP.
2. Press and hold SETUP until the red LED on the remote blinks twice,
then release SETUP.
3. Enter 991.
The LED will blink twice.
4. Aim the remote control at the component and slowly alternate between
pressing PWR and the button for the device you pushed in step 1.
5. Stop when the TV turns off.
6. Press SETUP once.
7. To search for the codes of your other components, repeat the
process, using the appropriate button for the new device in steps
1 and 4.
