Manual Search For Correct Code
The user can manually toggle through the
library one code at a time to find the correct
code for a TV, VCR or Cable/Satellite. Starting
from the currently selected device, the SpitFIRE
will begin searching through that same category
(TV, VCR, etc.) in the library. This is useful
when the POWER button operates the user’s
equipment, but other buttons do not, indicating
the selected code is close but not the same.
Using Manual Search, the user can try all the
numeric keys, play, stop, etc. to thoroughly test
the selection.
The programing sequence is:
1. Manually turn on the device.
2. SOURCE (1-4)
3. PROGRAM
4. 0-0-0
5. Issue PROGRAM as needed. Each time
PROGRAM is sent, the SpitFIRE will
increment the device code.
If the current selection does not operate the
equipment, you may press PROGRAM and
observe 3 flashes. The SpitFIRE is now set up
for the next consecutive device in the library.
When you find the correct code, pressing the
SOURCE button will save the program setting.
As with AutoSearch, SOURCE1 will scan all
cable boxes and DSS receivers, SOURCE2 will
scan all VCRs and DVD players, SOURCE3
will scan all TVs and SOURCE4 will scan
everything.
The programming sequence to manual search
the code for source #1 is:

NOTE: Some devices (such as cable boxes)
may not support power buttons on the remote.
In this case, you can substitute any other
supported button to test the code.
After the SpitFIRE is programmed using
Manual Search, you will not know the library
code number programmed. See Device Code
