Notes on Batteries

•Do not mix old batteries with new ones or mix different types

of batteries together.

•If the electrolyte inside the battery should leak, wipe the

contaminated area of the battery compartment with a cloth and
replace the old batteries with new ones. To prevent the
electrolyte from leaking, remove the batteries when you plan
not to use the Commander for a long period of time.

Setting the Code

Follow steps 1 and 2 below for each component you plan to use
with the Commander.

Step 1: Entering the Code Number

1

See the supplied “Component Code numbers” table, and find
the three-digit code number for the desired component.
If more than one code number is listed, use the number that is
listed first to complete the steps below.
For example, if you are setting up a Philips TV, you would
use the code number 086.
If your component is not listed, see “Searching for the Correct
Code.”

2

While pressing the 

S (SET)

button, press the 

1

 button.

3

Press the button of the
component that you want to
set up.

Note

On the 

VCR, SAT

 and 

DVD

 buttons, “VCR,” “satellite tuner,”

and “DVD player” are assigned respectively at the factory.
But you can also assign other components on these buttons.
For details, see “Changing the Component Type on the 

VCR,

SAT

 and 

DVD

 buttons.”

4

Enter the component’s code number.
For example, if you are entering the
code for a Philips TV, you would
press 

-86

.

5

  Press and release the 

t

 button to store

the code number in the Commander’s
memory.

6

Go to “Step 2: Checking if the Code Number Works” to finish
setting up.

If you press a wrong button in step 4

Press the 

1

 button while pressing the 

S (SET)

 button and then

go back to step 2.

Step 2: Checking if the Code Number Works

1

Turn on the component you want to set up.

2

Aim the Remote Commander at the component and press a
button to check if that button works.
For example, press the 

1

 button to see if it works on your

component.

3

Check that the other buttons of the Commander are operating
the corresponding functions of the component.

You can write down the code number on the label inside the
battery compartment lid.

If the Commander Does not Seem to be
Working...

• First, try repeating these setup procedures using the other

codes listed for your component (see the supplied
“Component Code Numbers” table).

• If after trying all the codes listed for your component you still

cannot get the Commander to work properly, try the search
method described in “Searching for the Correct Code.”

Searching for the Correct Code

If you have tried all the code numbers listed for your component
and you still cannot get the Commander to work (or if your
component is not listed in the “Component Code Numbers”
table), try these steps.

Before starting the Search function

Set each component to the following status to enable the Search
function.
TV: power-on
Other components: power-off

1

While pressing the 

S (SET)

 button, press the 

1

 button.

2

On the Commander, press the button of the component that
you want to set up.

3

Press and release the 

PROGR+

 button. Then press and release

the 

1

 button.

4

Repeat step 3 until the correct code number is found.
Each time you press the 

PROGR+

 button and then the 

1

button, a new code number will be transmitted.

Keep trying until your component operates as follows:
• TV: power-off
• Other components: power-on
• TV without a power switch: the C function works.

Be patient as you do this; it could take as many as 120 tries
before the correct code number is located.

5

When the correct code is found, press the 

t

 button to store

the code number in the Commander’s memory.

6

Check that the Commander is operating the other functions of
your component by pressing the corresponding buttons on
the Commander. If they seem to be working properly, you are
done setting up the Commander.

If the component does not operate properly, repeat steps 1 to 5
and search for another code.

If you still cannot get the Commander to work properly, see
“Troubleshooting.”

Note

Be sure to proceed to each next step in the above procedure
within 10 seconds; otherwise setting mode will be canceled.

Changing the Component Type on the
VCR, SAT and DVD buttons

At the factory, “VCR” is assigned to the 

VCR

components. The functions of the Commander are limited to
the functions of the components themselves. For example, if
your TV does not have a 

MUTING

 function, the 

%

 button on

this Commander will not function with your TV.

•Some functions of the component may not work with this

Commander.

Setting Up the Remote Commander

About Presetting the Commander

The Commander is preset at the factory to operate Sony brand
components.
If you are using the Commander with a Sony component, you
will not need to preset the Commander before you start using it.
To set up the Commander to use with other (non-Sony)
manufacturers’ components, or to use with a component that is
not preset at the factory, you will need to follow the instructions
in this manual to preset the Commander with the correct code
number for your component(s). (See the supplied “Component
Code Numbers”  table also.)

Notes

•The Commander can be set up to operate only one component

per button – unless their code numbers happen to be the same.
For example, you cannot set up the Commander to operate a
Sony TV and a Panasonic TV simultaneously (because they use
different code numbers).

•You may not be able to operate even a Sony brand component

with the factory presetting. In such a case, follow the
procedure in “Setting the Code.”

Installing the Batteries

Before replacing the batteries, have new ones ready
beforehand.

Slide open the battery compartment and insert two size AA (R6)
batteries (not supplied).
Be sure to line up the + and – on the batteries with the + and –
on the battery compartment.

1

2

When to replace the batteries

Under normal conditions, batteries will last up to 6 months. If
the Commander does not operate properly, the batteries might
be worn out. Replace the batteries with new ones.

Notes

•Replace both batteries with new ones.
•Do not take more than 3 minutes to replace the batteries;

otherwise, your code number settings will be erased.

Notes

•Even if you try to program more than four operations and

press the corresponding buttons in step 2 above, only the first
four buttons that were pressed will be programmed.

•If you try to program only one operation on a macro key, the

setting operation will be rejected.

•You can program the 

Channel Macro

 function for up to three

components only. To program a fourth component, first clear
all macro keys for a component.

•If you have programmed the 

Channel Macro

 function for TV

or satellite tuner operation, the button used as a macro key
cannot be used for Fastext buttons.

To change or clear a program

When you want to change the setting, or if you are no longer
using a programmed operation, follow the procedure below to
overwrite or clear the program.

1

Hold down the macro key that you want to change or clear.

2

After waiting for about three seconds, press the new sequence
of buttons, or, to clear the program, press and release 

-

, and

then press and release 

ENT

.

3

Release the macro key.

Note

Be sure to wait for about three seconds in step 2 above. While
you are holding down the macro key and waiting, the
programmed signals are transmitted; therefore, if you are
aiming the Commander at your component, the programmed
operations may be performed before you go on with the
procedure.

Troubleshooting

If you have problems setting up or using the Commander:
•When setting up the Commander, carefully go through the

procedures described in “Setting the Code.”  If the code that is
listed first for your component does not work, try other codes
for that component in the order in which they are listed. If all
the codes fail to work (or if your component is not listed in this
manual), try using the procedures in “Searching for the Correct
Code.”

•Check that you are aiming the Commander directly at the

component, and that there are no obstructions between the
Commander and the component.

•Make sure the batteries you are using are not worn out, and

that they are inserted correctly.

•Check that the button of the 

TV, VCR, SAT,

 or 

DVD

 is pressed

to choose your desired component.

•Check that the component has infrared remote capability. For

example, if your component did not come with a remote
commander, it is probably not capable of being controlled by a
remote commander.

•Should any problem persist, reset the Commander to the

factory setting by pressing the 

1

,

 

t

 and 

2

– buttons

simultaneously.
