Setting Up Your Devices, cont.
Pressing Save displays screen (5) that
instructs you to try a few other keys on
the remote to make sure you’ve found the
correct code. Tip: Try keys like Menu,
and Guide. Power might work yet you
still might not have the correct code. If
several keys seem to work fine, press
Save Code. If some keys don’t work,
select Change Code (or press Back) to go
back and find another code that works
better. Selecting Label lets you rename
the device, e.g., you could call it My TV.
You can ignore this for now and try it
later if you like. See pages 13, 14, and 32
for more details on entering text to
change labels.
Pressing Save Code at screen (5) takes
you to screen (6) where you set up a
Cable box. You can quit at this point and
(5)
(6)
set up other devices later, or you can continue and set up other
devices - SAT, DVR, DVD, VCR, Audio, CD Player, or an AUX
device. (Directions on how to set up X10 Home Automation
devices are shown on pages 15-20.)
Let’s assume for now that you go ahead and set up a TV,
Cable, and SAT.
If you select No at screen (1) on the previous page the
procedure will be similar to the above, except that you will be
searching through the entire library of codes for your device to
find the one that works best (instead of just searching through
the codes for your brand of device, e.g., Philips).
If you say Yes when asked if you know your Brand, but
subsequently don’t find a code that works, you are asked if you
want to try again (in case you missed it), or try all the codes for
your device. If you try all codes for your device type, and still
don’t find a code that works, you can skip it, or select Learn. If
you select Learn you can later learn the commands you want
for that device type.
Setting Up Your Devices
How to set up a TV
After you’ve been through the Wizard for
the first time, the screen (1) shown to the
right appears. This is the start of the
Wizard to set up your devices (TV being
the first one). Manually turn on the
device(s) to be set up (TV, VCR, etc.).
If you know your brand of TV, select Yes,
which results in a faster search for your
TV’s code. (Selecting No searches the
complete library of TV codes, rather than
just the codes for your brand of TV).
Pressing the Side Key next to Yes at
screen (1) takes you to a screen (2) where
the most common brands are shown next
to the Side Keys. If your brand isn’t
shown you can press the Side Key
adjacent to Next to show more brands,
(shown alphabetically) or press the Side
Key adjacent to Back to go back to the
previous screen of brands. Note, on the
very first screen of brands, the Side Key
adjacent to Back takes you to the last
screen of brands (so you can go back
through the list instead of forward through
it if you prefer). In this case we selected
Philips.
Screen (3) tells you to point the remote
directly at your TV and repeatedly press
(but not hold) Power (or Chan Up/Down,
or Play for VCRs, etc.) until your device
responds. Pressing Power sends the Power
command to your TV and screen (4)
shows that you’ve selected code 1 of xx
(xx will vary by brand). Keep pressing
Power until your TV responds and then
press Save.
