Code Learning

g. Place the original remote end-to-end with the

Learning Remote so the IR transmitters on both
remotes are directly in line with each other. You
may need to adjust the height of either remote
to achieve this. Use the IR Transmitter Finder
feature to assist you.

h. Keep the distance between the two remotes

to approximately 1 inch and do not move or
change the distance between the two remotes
until you have learned all the required buttons
for that Mode.

i. When Learning, do not release the button being

Learned until the red indicator has blinked off
for half a second.

j. Avoid learning your original remote Volume/

Mute buttons unless you are sure these operate
the same device e.g. some original DVD
remotes include TV Volume/Mute button control
and can be two different types of code.

k. Avoid learning your original remote DVD

transport buttons unless you are sure these
operate the same device e.g. some original TV
remotes include DVD button control and can be
two different types of code.

l. If learning the fi rst or second buttons for a

Mode results in continuous errors then try the
following:

i. End the Learn session by pressing the SETUP

button.

ii. Clear out the learned commands for that Mode.
iii. Check the IR transmitters are correctly

aligned between the two remotes (use the IR
Transmitter Finder facility).

iv. Adjust the distance between the two remotes

to be closer (e.g. half an inch) or a further away
(e.g. 2 inches) from each other.

v. Try learning the original remote for that Mode

again.

If problems reoccur with the same button check
the original remote button being learned – does it
transmit? Does it operate the target device? Try
learning that button under a different clear Mode.
If it learns okay then it is likely to be a different
code type from the others and cannot be learned
under the same Mode.
