Choose the devices controlled by each section of the remote.

In the final step in creating your Favorite channels list, you set what different groups of
keys control by default when you’re using your favorite channel list.

Set this screen for the way you usually use a remote while watching your favorite channels.
Once you’ve set up the keys on this screen, you won’t need to switch device modes to control
the volume, channels, etc.—no matter which device you’re controlling with the other keys, the
remote will automatically change volume on the device you select here.

You can set the following options:

LCD screen (soft keys)

Menu navigation keys

Volume keys

Channel keys

TeleText (color) keys

Playback keys

Number keys

Input keys

To change an option from the one shown, highlight the option you’d like to change, then
choose the device you want these keys to control from the drop-down list.

When you’ve finished setting the device you’d like the keys in each section of the remote
to control, click the

Next

button to proceed.

That’s it! You’ve set up your list of Favorite channels.

Click

Next

to go to the main menu.
