Important: Once you have programmed any device with a specified Volume
Punch-Through, the Volume Punch-Through for all other devices defaults to
AUDIO. If you do not want other components’ Volume Punch-Through to default
to AUDIO, you must manually program them, using steps 1-4.

You may have pressed an invalid key for the mode the remote is in.
1. Press the MACRO key.
Because this remote controls more than one device, you must first “tell” the
remote which device you wish to operate. That means, if you wish to operate
your TV, you must first press the TV key to put the remote in the TV Mode. The
remote stays in that device mode until you press a different device key. For
example, if your remote is in TV Mode and you want to operate the DVD player,
you must press the DVD key to change device modes.
To learn keys in a different device mode: Repeat steps 2–5 for the next
device mode.
To save learned keys and exit learning: press the SLEEP key on the
learning remote.
Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding device
key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, DVR, AUDIO, VCR, AUX1, AUX2). This tells the remote
which device to operate.
2. Press the number key assigned to the Macro sequence you want to execute.

Transport Key Punch-Through
Learning Tips
Transport Key Punch Through allows the transport keys (REVERSE, PLAY,
FORWARD, RECORD, STOP, PAUSE, SKIP FWD, SKIP BACK, and SLOW), when
pressed in TV, SAT, CABLE and AUDIO modes, to “punch through” to VCR, DVR
or DVD/CD mode, whichever was accessed last. Transport Key Punch-Through
occurs automatically and allows you to use the transport keys without exiting
the current mode. For example, if the transport keys were last used in DVD mode
and accessed again after pressing the TV key, they will punch through to the
DVD. The default Transport Key Punch Through is set to DVD for TV, SAT, CABLE
and AUDIO.

The remote exits Learning mode if it has run out of memory to store new
learned keys.
Codes from the Code Lists include basic functionality for each component they
control. Once you have programmed in the code for your specific component,
you can customize the universal remote to include certain functions from your
original remote(s) that were not embedded in the preset code. Your universal
remote has the ability to learn and store commands from your original remote(s)
under the mode(s) of your choice. The universal remote can store up to 50 key
commands.* Only one original remote can be learned under any one mode (e.g.,
the universal remote can learn commands for one TV remote, one VCR remote,
etc.).
Channel Lock
Advanced Functions
Channel lock automatically sends channel commands, like the CH, GO BACK,
and 0–9 number keys, to your satellite receiver, cable box, or digital TV converter
when you’re in TV mode. This can save you keypresses if you use a device other
than your TV to change channels.

To ensure that your units are compatible and to increase your familiarity
with the Learning process, experiment by learning two or three keys initially.
Then, carry out a Master Clear before learning all the desired functions from
your original remote.

Menu access isn’t supported for all brands. You may need to use your original
remote control to access menu functions for some devices.
To execute the Macro, press the MACRO key. Press the 1 key. Your TV, DVD
player, and satellite receiver should all power on.
Assigning the AUX1 and AUX2 Keys
To program the AUX1 or AUX2 keys, you must first assign them to a device type.

Code Retrieval
Troubleshooting
Once you’ve programmed the remote to control your devices, you may want to
record the codes for future reference. If you used the Direct Code Entry method,
this is easy. Just find the codes you entered and make a note of them in the
boxes below. If you used one of the Code Search methods to program your
remote or if you used the Direct Entry method but don’t remember the code, you
will need to retrieve each device’s five-digit code. Retrieving the actual code and
writing it down will save you time if you ever need to program the remote again.
If the codes are recorded, you can use the Direct Entry method to reprogram
your remote to control your devices, which is quick and easy.
Learning From Your Original Remotes
Problem: The remote does not operate your device.
•
Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding device
key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, DVR, AUDIO, VCR, AUX1, AUX2). This tells the remote
which device to operate.
1. Place your original remote and the learning remote on a flat surface as
shown below. Point the top of your original remote at the top of the learning
remote. The IR LED on the original remote should be pointing directly at
the learning remote’s learning sensor, located on the top of the remote. The
remotes should be 1–2 inches apart.
2. Press the number key (1–8) you want to use for this
macro. The POWER key blinks once, then remains on.

mode, and no changes are made to existing Macros.
Volume Punch-Through allows the VOL and MUTE keys, when pressed in
SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, DVR or VCR modes, to “punch through” to either TV
or AUDIO, whichever was accessed last. Volume Punch-Through occurs
automatically and allows you to control the volume without exiting the current
mode. (If the AUX1 or AUX2 key has been programmed with a TV or AUDIO
code, volume can punch through to these devices as well.)

This Warranty does not cover product purchased, serviced or used outside the United States or
Canada. This Warranty is not transferable and does not extend to costs incurred for installation,
removal or reinstallation of the product. This Warranty does not apply if in the Company’s opinion,
the product has been damaged through alteration, improper installation, mishandling, misuse,
neglect, accident, or the simultaneous use of different battery types (e.g. alkaline, standard or
rechargeable).
4. Press each key you want to use in this Macro, in the exact order the keys
would be pressed if you were executing the sequence yourself. The POWER
key blinks each time a key is pressed. Continue this process for all keys to be
included in the Macro sequence under the given component mode.
To exit the Code Retrieval Mode at any time, press the EXIT key.
2. On the learning remote, press and hold the device
key you want to use the learned function in (the
POWER key turns on and remains on). While
holding down the device key, use your other hand
to press and hold the RECORD key (the POWER key
illumination turns off).

If you’re using the Direct Entry programming method to enter the codes for your
brand and the unit is still not functioning properly, try the auto, brand, or manual
search method.
To control combo units, like TV/VCRs or TV/DVDs, you must program the
individual corresponding device keys to control each part of the combo unit. Once
programmed successfully, the TV key controls the TV functions, and the DVD or VCR
key controls the DVD or VCR functions.
If you press an invalid key during the Code Retrieval process, the remote will
not respond. If you do not press a valid Code Retrieval key (TV, SAT•CBL•DTC,
DVD, DVR, AUDIO, VCR, AUX1, AUX2, INFO, EXIT), Code Retrieval times out
after 15 seconds. The POWER key blinks four times, and then turns off.
Advanced Punch-Through
Volume punch-through as described above occurs automatically. Advanced
punch-through lets you specify one device for all volume commands for each
non-audio mode (SAT•CBL•DTC, DVD, DVR, or VCR). You can specify either the
TV or AUDIO device (or an AUX key operating a TV or Audio device).
Important: If you are using different devices in this macro, you must press
each device key before you start pressing the keys for that device. For example,
if you’re turning on the TV, then playing a DVD, you must press the TV key,
then POWER, then DVD, then PLAY.

4. Starting with the number 1 key, press and release each number key on the
keypad in the following order: 1-9, then 0. The number that causes the POWER

There is a possibility that a programmed code may only be able to control some of
your device features (for example, only turns a device on and off). To confirm that
the device key is programmed with the correct code for maximum functionality, test
the device. Attempt to control a variety of the device’s functions with the remote. If
some of the features of your devices don’t work, try programming the remote with a
different code in the list using the Direct Code Entry Method, until you find the code
that allows the remote to control the majority of your device’s functions. Different
codes can provide different levels of functionality.
Note: The device key pressed in step 4 must be programmed with a TV or
AUDIO component. If an invalid key is pressed, the POWER key flashes four
times, then turns off.
