To be certain that the remote functions properly, all IR commands 
for source devices connected to inputs 
2, 3, and 4 must be
learned from the original device remote. A total of 42 to 75 
commands can be stored, depending on the size of the learned 
commands.
Commands for
TV and AUX devices are implemented using
five-digit codes to identify a complete command set for a device. 
The codes can be found in the 
“Manufacturer’s Codes” list
provided. Codes implemented via the five-digit code method do 
not consume memory (and therefore do not reduce total capacity) 
used for learning codes.
CONFIGURE TV AND AUX
Before proceeding, find the codes for the devices to be controlled 
in the provided list (“Manufacturer’s Codes”). Write down or 
highlight these codes for easy references, then perform the 
following steps:
1. Turn on the device (for example: DVD player) and, if
needed, load media (for example: a DVD).
2. Press the
Source key
TV
or
Aux

until the Selected Source Key blinks
twice, then release.
4. Enter the first five-digit code for the device and brand
that you wish to program. The Source Key LED blinks 
once as each digit is entered. If the code is valid, the 
Source Key LED blinks twice.
 NOTE: IF THE SOURCE KEY LED DOES NOT BLINK TWICE, 
REPEAT STEPS 2 TO 4 AND TRY ENTERING THE CODE AGAIN.
5. Aim the remote at the device and press
POWER OFF
.
The device should turn Off. If it does not, repeat
steps

steps 1 to 5
for the other device you want
to control.
