This section explains how to set up the remote to control a device,
such as a satellite TV receiver, a TV, a VCR, a cable TV box, a tuner,
or an amplifier.

Note:

The remote already is set up to control the receiver. But, if the

receiver has its own volume control, then when you first install it, it is
set up so that the remote cannot control the receiver sound volume.
If you want to set up the receiver so that the remote can control the
receiver volume, see Receiver Volume Control on pag e18.

1. Turn ON the device you want the remote to control, using the

device’s buttons or the remote control that came with the device.

2. Find the brand name of the device in the tables that start

on page 22. If the brand is not listed, see Doing the Device Code
Scan
on pag e20.

3. Press and hold the mode button for the device

that you want the remote to control, for about
three seconds. When all the other mode button
backlights come on, release the mode button.

For example

4. Use the number buttons to enter the code

for the device.

Note:

For the

AUX

mode, you must enter

a 4-digit code. The first digit is the code for the
device, as follows:
0 is for a second TV, 1 is for a second VCR, and
2 is for an audio amplifier or cable TV box.

5. Press and release the

Pound

(

#

) button. If the

code is valid, the mode button backlight blinks
three times.

6. Test if the code works for the device by pressing

the

Power

button. If the code works, the device

should turn OFF.

7. Turn the device back ON and try some other buttons to make

sure they work. Sometimes, the

Power

button may work when

other buttons do not. If the code works for other buttons,
stop here.
