Using the System
Check the Device Codes
You can find out what device code you’ve set for each remote-control mode.
6. Press the UP or DOWN
ARROW button repeatedly
until the device turns off.
As you press the UP or DOWN
ARROW button, the remote is
trying each code in the memory to
see if it can turn off your device.
When the device turns off, you have
found a code that might work.
Note: The mode button for the
device will flash rapidly eight times
when you’ve scanned through all the
available codes for that device.
7. Press the POUND (#) button. This stores the code you found.
8. Turn the device back on and
try some other buttons to
make sure they work.
Press the POWER button to turn the
device back on. Try some other
buttons to make sure they work.
Sometimes, the POWER button or
TV POWER button works when
other buttons don’t.
9. Repeat this procedure until
you’ve tried all the codes.
You may need to repeat the scan to
find the best code for your device.
1. Press and hold the device
mode button until all the other
mode buttons light up, and
then let go of the button.
The mode button flashes.
For example, hold the TV mode
button for a TV until all of the other
mode buttons light. When you let
go, the TV mode light will flash.
2. Press the POUND (#) button
twice.
Watch the mode light to
determine your code. The
mode button flashes the
number for each digit of the
device code, with a pause
between the groups of flashes.
A quick flash is for zero.
For example, if the code is 570, the
mode button flashes five times,
pauses, flashes seven times, pauses,
and flashes once quickly. This
example sequence corresponds to
device code 570; your actual code
will probably differ.
3. For AUX mode setup only:
The first group of flashes tells
you what the AUX mode is set
up to control. A quick flash
(zero) before the three-digit
code is for a TV; one regular
flash is for a VCR or DVD
player; and two flashes is for a
tuner or audio amplifier.
For example, if the TV code is 570,
the AUX mode button flashes once
quickly (indicating 0 for TV),
pauses, flashes five times, pauses,
flashes seven times, pauses, and
flashes once quickly. This example
sequence corresponds to device
code 570; your actual code will
probably differ.
Tip: The IR remote
control is used to
control TV1 menus
and programming
on a nearby TV. An
optional IR/UHF
Pro remote can be
used to control the
receiver from
another room.
