• Keep at least 3 feet away from incandescent or low- energy lights when learning. • Place the original remote end-to-end with your new remote so the IR transmitter (at the top) on your original remote points at the IR learning device on the bottom of your new remote. • Keep the distance between the two remotes to approximately 1 inch. • Line up the remotes and then press the key you want to learn. To get the correct range, press the key on the remote you are learning. Do not change the distance between the two remotes until you have learned all the required keys. • When Learning, do not release the button being Learned until the indicator has blinked off for half a second. However, some keys might be learned multiple times if you do this. If this happens, just “tap” the key you want to learn rather than press and hold it. For example, keys that you normally hold down for awhile (like volume up or down) will likely require a long press when learning. • Keys that you normally give a quick press (like the numbers, and channel up/down) will likely require a quick press when learning. If after learning, say, the channel-up key, you find that it changes multiple channels when pressed once, try relearning it with a short key press. • If learning the first or second keys results in continuous errors, then try the following: 1. Check that the IR transmitters/sensors are correctly aligned between the two remotes (see next page). 2. Adjust the distance between the two remotes to be closer (1/2 an inch) or further away (2 inches) from each other. 3. Try learning the original remote keys again. 4. If problems reoccur with the same button, check the original remote key being learned – does it transmit? Does it operate the target device? 5. Clear all learned settings and try learning again. If problems reoccur with the same button, check the original remote button being learned to see if there is transmission. Try learning that button under a different cleared mode, if necessary. If the remote learns, then this situation is likely a different code type from others and cannot be learned under the same mode. 14 15 Learning CommandsIR Transmitter Finder This feature assists you in identifying where your original remote’s infrared (IR) transmitter is located. This feature is particularly useful if your original remote’s IR transmitter is hidden behind a lens. 1. Point your remotes so that the top of your existing remote faces the bottom of your new remote and the remotes are about 1 inch apart (see picure on next page). 2. Press and hold SETUP until the indicator remains on, then release SETUP. 3. Repeatedly press and release SELECT to select the desired mode (TV, VCR, etc.). 4. Press and release LEARN; the indicator blinks, then stays on. 5. Press and hold any original remote button and move the original remote to the left and right and/or up and down in front of the IR transmitter. Note1: The indicator will remain on if there is not any IR from the original remote. The indicator will blink on and off more rapidly when the IR transmitters are lining up. The point where the indicator blinks most rapidly is where the two IR transmitters are aligned. Note2: Some original remotes only transmit IR on the initial button press and then stop transmitting IR. Quickly press and release the original remote button repeatedly during this procedure in such cases. The learning feature lets your remote “learn” functions from your original remote control. 1. Press and hold SETUP until the indicator remains on, then release SETUP. 2. Repeatedly press and release SELECT to select the desired mode (TV, VCR, etc.). 3. Press and release LEARN; the indicator blinks, then stays on. 4. Press and release the button that you want to learn (for instance, POWER). 5. Point your original remote at the bottom of your new remote until they are about 1 inch apart. 6. Press and hold the original remote button (for instance, Power) until the indicator blinks once, then stays on. If there is a learning problem, the indicator blinks for 3 seconds and stays on. If this happens, repeat Steps 4 to 6. 7. Repeat Steps 4-6 for other buttons you want your remote to learn. 8. Press and release SETUP when all desired remote commands are learned. Code learning is now complete. Line up your remotes (that you’re learning from) in front of the learning remote on a hard surface approx. 1-inch apart. 4. 2. 1. 3. 6. 16 17 INPUTClearing Commands To Clear All Learned Commands Under a Mode Clearing learned commands is helpful if you replace your CD player with another brand or model, for example. If your remote had learned a feature (such as RANDOM PLAY) from your old CD player’s original remote, that feature would no longer work for your new CD player. If you want to remove or clear one or more learned commands, do the following. 1. Press and hold SETUP until the indicator remains on, then release SETUP. 2. Press and release SELECT to select the mode you want to clear (TV, VCR, ...
