Teaching Method

From time to time the three-digit programming method doesn’t
automatically program in all of the commands of the original remote.
In such cases you can “teach” the DR-3 individual commands from
your original equipment remote control. New commands can be taught
to any button except the eight Source/Device buttons at the top of the
remote and the LIGHT, MACRO, LEARN, CODE, SAVE, CNCL, MUTE,
SURROUND MODE, VOL UP, VOL DOWN, SUB+, SUB– and SYSTEM
POWER buttons.

The remote control provides visual feedback via the status light that
is located at the top left of the remote control, and the Source/Device
buttons. The status light glows in three colors (red, orange and green).
These lights will assist you in programming in the learning section of
the remote control.

NOTE: You have 20 seconds to perform each step. If the source button
light goes off, you need to back up a step and do it again. You can exit
the learning mode by pressing the CNCL (cancel) button at any time in
the process.

Quick Instructions

Place the DR-3 remote and the original remote controls on a table
pointing toward each other as shown in the illustration.

1. Press LEARN for two seconds

2. Select device type with source buttons

3. Push button to be taught on the DR-3

4. Push and hold the button on other remote

5. Wait for green light

6. Release button & press/hold it again until green light blinks, release

7. Repeat steps 3 - 6 for other buttons

8. Press SAVE

Start from the beginning for each device.

Detailed Instructions

Place the DR-3 remote and the original remote controls on a table
pointing towards each other as shown in the illustration.

1. Press and hold the LEARN button on the DR-3 for two seconds.

The status light at the top left of the remote will glow orange.

2. Select the Source/Device mode in which you would like to teach

the new command. The Source/Device button will light up. For
example if you wanted to teach a command to the MENU button
in the DSS mode on the remote, you would select the DSS
Source/Device button and then continue the instructions below
to teach the new command to the MENU button.

3. Press the button on the DR-3 that is to be taught the new com-

mand. The orange status light will begin to flash continuously.
The Source/Device light will turn off.

4. On the source remote control (original equipment remote control),

press and hold the button for the command to be learned until the
status light on the DR-3 remote turns green.

5. Release the button on the source remote control.

6. Press the button on the source remote control once again to

verify that the new command has been learned correctly. The
status light on the DR-3 will flash green twice and then turn to
a steady orange color to indicate that the programming was
successful. The Source/Device button will light.

7. Repeat Steps 3 through 6 for any other buttons to be taught in

the device mode selected in Step 2.

8. Press and hold the SAVE button for two seconds to save the
