NOTE: For TV/VCR Combo control, see the
next section.
1. Turn on a component (e.g.,VCR)
and, if applicable, insert media,
(e.g., cassette or disc).
NOTE: Please read steps 2-4 completely
before proceeding. We recommend
highlighting or writing down the codes
and device you wish to program before
moving onto step 2.
2. On the UNO-LRC1, press a compo-
nent key once (i.e., VID, DVD or TV).
Press and hold SETUP until the LED
blinks twice, then release SETUP.
Components are assigned
to each component key.

3. Use the Manufacturer’s Codes (on the
back side) to locate the the type of
component and brand name and
then enter the first four-digit code
for your component. If performed
correctly, the LED will blink twice.
NOTE: If the LED did not blink twice, then
repeat steps 2 through 3 and try entering
the same code again.
4. Aim the UNO-LRC1 at the compo-
nent and press PWR once. It should
turn off. If it does not respond, repeat
steps 2-3, trying each code for your
brand until you find one that works.
If it still does not work, try searching
for the code (see Searching For Your
Code).
NOTE: If the device does not have a PWR
key, press PLAY.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 for each
component you want the UNO-LRC1
to control.
PROGRAMMING
TV/VCR COMBO CONTROL
Perform the following instructions to
control a TV/VCR Combo:
1. Turn on the TV/VCR Combo and
insert a video cassette.
NOTE: Please read steps 2-4 completely
before proceeding. We recommend
highlighting or writing down the code
for the brand you wish to program
before moving onto step 2.

NOTE: If the device does not have a PWR
key, press PLAY.
5. If you’ve located a setup code that
works, but it has a separate TV code,
you’ll also need to program it into the
UNO-LRC1 to access volume control
as follows:
a. Press TV once. The LED will
blink twice.
b. Enter the TV code for your
TV/VCR Combo. If correct, the
LED will blink twice.
If there is no separate TV code listed,
you will need to perform the follow-
ing steps to access volume control:
a. Press and hold SETUP until the
LED blinks twice, then release
SETUP.
b. Enter 9 - 9 - 3 . The LED will
blink twice.
c. Press DVD once. The LED will
blink twice.
SEARCHING FOR YOUR CODE
If your device does not respond to the
UNO-LRC1 after trying all codes listed
for your brand, or if your brand is not
listed at all, try searching for your code.
For example, to search for a code for
your TV:
1. On the UNO-LRC1, press TV once.
2. Press and hold SETUP until the LED
blinks twice, then release SETUP.
3. Enter 9 - 9 - 1. The LED will
blink twice.
4. Aim the remote control at the the
TV and slowly alternate between
pressing PWR and TV. Stop when the
TV turns off.
NOTE: In the search mode, the UNO-
LRC1 will send IR codes from its
library to the selected device, starting
with the most popular code first.
5. Press SETUP once to lock in the code.
6. To search for the codes of your other
components, repeat steps 1 through
5, but substitute the appropriate key
(i.e., VID, DVD, or TV).
LEARNING CAPABILITY
To optimize success, the learning process
should be conducted in an area where
there is a low level of IR emission. High
levels of “natural light” or energy effi-
cient fluorescent lights could interfere
with a learning event The source and
target (learner) remotes should be no
more than 1 to 2 inches apart during a
learning event and the IR LEDs of the
two units should be aligned with each
other. The learning operation is initiated
as follows:
1. Press and hold SETUP until double
blink confirmation. Press 9 - 7 - 5 to
initiate learning mode.
2. Press [MODE] and key to be learned
(time out if no key pressed in 10 sec-
onds).
3. Visible LED flashes rapidly (time out
if no received signal detected in 4
sec.)
4. Hold teaching remote close to IR
LED and press key to be taught.
5. Visible LED goes out. Continue to
press teaching key until double blink
from visible LED. (One long blink
indicates a learning failure)
6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 as often as
desired (up to limit of memory).
7. Exit learning mode by pressing
SETUP, or by time out (10 seconds).
At step 5, one long blink indicates learning fail-
ure, which could be:
a. Bad capture (try again)
b. Memory full (delete some other
function)
c. Unlearnable code
Deleting a learned code:
To delete a learned code, either overwrite
it with a new code on the same key, or
use the following sequence:
Press [MODE] then SETUP (press and
hold till you see two blinks) 9 - 7 - 6
then press the key you wish to delete
twice.
Sending a key’s original (preprogrammed)
function:
If a function is learned onto a key, then
SETUP - key will send the key’s original
function (as long as nothing else has
been learned or keymoved onto the
“shifted” key as well).
Interaction of learned keys and keymover:
• If both a learned function and a key-
moved function are placed on the
same key, whichever was pro-
grammed last will take precedence.
• A learned function cannot be used as
a source for keymover, keymover
always uses the key’s original func-
tion as the source.
Limitations on Learning
• There are certain device codes which
are not learnable. These include
multi-frequency codes (e.g.
Telefunken), some high frequency
codes, and other unusual formats.
• The learner will support IR codes
with carrier frequency up to 135
Khz.
• The unit can learn only one code per
key. It can’t be taught a sequence of
several keystrokes on one key.
• All keys with the exception of Modes,
and SETUP can be learned on.
• During a learning event. The source
remote and target should be no more
than 1 to 2 inches apart.
• In some cases you may be required
to re-learn a code if it is not correctly
learned.
• The learning process should con-
ducted in an area where there is a
low levels of IR emission. High levels
of “nature light” or Energy efficient
fluorescent lights, could interfere
with a learning event.
• In general, it is not recommended to
learn a function to the Record Key.
The Record Key requires a double
key press to send the record function
in normal operation. The double key
press is lost when the Record key is
involved in most learning operations.
This lack of consistency in operation
generates a source of confusion for
the user and is best to be avoided
when possible. However, the Record
key is learnable.
• Typically, there are up to 24 buttons
that can be learned.
CHECKING THE CODES
If you have set up the UNO-LRC1 using
the Searching For Your Code procedure,
you may need to find out which four-
digit code is operating your equipment:
For example, to find out which code is
operating your TV:
1. On the UNO-LRC1, press TV once.
2. Press and hold SETUP until the LED
blinks twice, then release SETUP.
3. Enter 9 - 9 - 0. The LED will
blink twice.
4. To view the code for the first digit,
press 1 once.Wait 3 seconds, count
the LED blinks (e.g., 3 blinks = 3)
and write down the number.
NOTE: If a code digit is “0”, the LED
will not blink.
5. Repeat step 4 three more times for
remaining digits. Use 2 for the sec-
ond digit, 3 for the third digit, and 4
for the fourth digit.
6. To check for the codes of your other
components, repeat steps 1 through
5, but substitute the appropriate key
(i.e., VID, DVD, or TV) component you
are checking. As before, write down
each four-digit code.
CHANGING VOLUME LOCK
The UNO-LRC1 is set to control volume
of a component through your TV while
in the
, , or mode. In UNO
mode, you have control of your UNO
keypad’s volume.
If your TV is not remote controllable, or
if you want volume to be controlled by a
different component, you can change the
Volume Lock setting to control a volume
through a non-associated mode (e.g.,
through the cable in the TV mode).
To change Volume Lock to another
mode:
1. On the UNO-LRC1, press and hold
SETUP until the LED blinks twice,
then release SETUP.
2. Enter 9 - 9 - 3 and then press any
mode key once (except TV). The LED
will blink twice.
3. Now, whenever you press VOL +,
VOL –, or MUTE, volume will be con-
trolled by your mode choice.
To change Volume Lock back to the
TV mode:
1. On the UNO-LRC1, press and hold
SETUP until the LED blinks twice,
then release SETUP.
2. Enter 9 - 9 - 3 and then press TV.
The LED will blink twice.
3. Now, whenever you press VOL +,
VOL –, or MUTE on the UNO-LRC1,
volume will be controlled by your TV.
