Reassigning Devices
Although each

is normally assigned to the category of
product shown on the remote, it is possible to
reassign one of these buttons to operate a sec-
ond device of another type. For example, if you
have a cable box and satellite receiver, but only
one VCR, you may program the “VID2” button to
operate a cable box. Before following the normal
programming steps for either three-digit entry or

Press the
Input Selector

for the device you wish to program into
the reassigned button.
3.
Enter the three-digit code for the specific
model you wish the reassigned button to
operate, and the
Program Indicator LED
will flash.
4.
Press the same
Input Selector
dij
l

o
pressed in Step 1 once again to
store the selection. The red LED under the
reassigned
Input Selector
will flash three
times and then go out.
Example:

Resetting the Remote Memory

system, occasionally you may wish to totally
reprogram the remote control without the confu-
sion of any commands, macros or ”Punch-
Through“ programming that you may have done.
To do this, it is possible to reset the remote to
the original factory defaults and command codes
by following these steps. Note, however, that
once the remote is reset, all commands or codes
that you have entered will be erased and will
need to be reentered:

The red LED under the
Input Selector

will flash
three times and go out.

the remote has been reset to the factory settings.
