Learning new control codes

1. Set the A/B-SUBROOM/LEARN selector switch to LEARN.
2. Place the head of your existing remote controller 2-4 inches (5-10 cm)

from the head of this remote controller, laying both units on a table or
another flat surface.

3. Press a button in the PROGRAMMABLE AREA of this remote

controller to which you want to transfer the code.
The SENDING/LEARNED indicator lights.

4. Hold down the button for the function you want to transfer on the other

remote controller until the SENDING/LEARNED indicator turns off.

5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until all the required function are trans-

ferred to the supplied remote controller.

6. Set the A/B-SUB ROOM/LEARN selector switch back to A.

Note:

• Some remote controllers use a single button to change codes, with the code

changing each time the button is pressed. If you are using this type of
controller, perform "learn" operations for each function individually, one
function to one button on this remote controller.

• This remote controller transmits codes using infrared rays and can memorize

the codes of other remote controllers that also use an infrared system; however,
depending on the system, there may be some rare occasions when memoriza-
tion is not possible.

Changing the learned commands
Perform the whole procedure described in "Learning new control
codes". The existing commands on the supplied remote controller are
replaced with the newly learned commands.
