How to set up a TV

After you’ve been through the Wizard 
for the fi rst time, the screen (1) shown 
to the right appears. This is the start of 
the Wizard to set up your devices (TV 
being the fi rst one). Manually turn on the 
device(s) to be set up (TV, VCR, etc.). 

If you know your brand of TV, select Yes, 
which results in a faster search for your 
TV’s code. (Selecting No searches the 
complete library of TV codes, rather than 
just the codes for your brand of TV).

Pressing the Side Key next to Yes at 
screen (1) takes you to a screen (2) where 
the most common brands are shown 
next to the Side Keys. If your brand 
isn’t shown you can press the Side Key 
adjacent to Next to show more brands, 
(shown alphabetically) or press the 
Side Key adjacent to Back to go back 
to the previous screen of brands. Note, 
on the very fi rst screen of brands, the 
Side Key adjacent to Back takes you to 
the last screen of brands (so you can go 
back through the list instead of forward 
through it if you prefer). In this case we 
selected Philips.

Screen (3) tells you to point the remote 
directly at your TV and repeatedly press 
(but not hold) Power (or Chan Up/Down, 
or Play for VCRs, etc.) until your device 
responds. Pressing Power sends the Power 
command to your TV and screen (4) 
shows that you’ve selected code 1 of xx 
(xx will vary by brand). Keep pressing 
Power until your TV responds and then 
press Save. 

  Setting Up Your Devices

Pressing Save displays screen (5) that 
instructs you to try a few other keys on 
the remote to make sure you’ve found the 
correct code. Tip: Try keys like Menu, and 
Guide. Power might work yet you still 
might not have the correct code. If several 
keys seem to work fi ne, press Save Code. 
If some keys don’t work, select Change 
Code (or press Back) to go back and fi nd 
another code that works better. Selecting 
Label lets you rename the device, e.g., 
you could call it My TV. You can ignore 
this for now and try it later if you like. See 
pages 13, 14, and 32 for more details on 
entering text to change labels.

Pressing Save Code at screen (5) takes 
you to screen (6) where you set up a Cable 
box. You can quit at this point and set up 
other devices later, or you can continue

and set up other devices - SAT, DVR, DVD, VCR, Audio, CD 
Player, or an AUX device. (Directions on how to set up X10 
Home Automation devices are shown on pages 15-20.)

Let’s assume for now that you go ahead and set up a TV, Cable, 
and SAT.

If you select No at screen (1) on the previous page the 
procedure will be similar to the above, except that you will be 
searching through the entire library of codes for your device to 
fi nd the one that works best (instead of just searching through 
the codes for your brand of device, e.g., Philips). 

If you say Yes when asked if you know your Brand, but 
subsequently don’t fi nd a code that works, you are asked if you 
want to try again (in case you missed it), or try all the codes for 
your device. If you try all codes for your device type, and still 
don’t fi nd a code that works, you can skip it, or select Learn. If 
you select Learn you can later learn the commands you want 
for that device type.
