Setting Up the Remote
Commander
Before you can start using the Remote Commander, you must first
set it up. This manual describes everything you need to know to
set up the Remote Commander for your TV, VCR and cable box.
About Presetting the Commander
This Remote Commander is preset at the factory to operate Sony
brand TVs and Sony brand VHS VCRs. If you're using this
Commander with a Sony TV and a Sony VHS VCR, you won't need
to preset the Commander before you start using it.
To set up this Remote Commander to use with other (non-Sony)
manufacturer's TVs, VCRs, and cable boxes, you'll need to follow
the instructions in this manual to preset the Remote Commander.
Note
The Commander can be set up to operate only one component of each
category (TV, VCR, cable box) at a time unless their code numbers happen
to be the same. For example, you cannot set up the Commander to operate
a Sony TV and a Panasonic TV at the same time.
Step 1: Searching for the Correct Code
This Commander is preset with the remote control codes of
different manufacturers. Follow the procedure described below to
set the remote control code that operates your TV, VCR or cable
box.
