MASTER REMOTE CONTROL

User Manual Getting Started

Congratulations!  Your new Master Remote Control eliminates the frustration of having to use several remote controls.  The Master 3-in-1 has been designed to control most TV sets and VCRs in today's consumer market, as well as Pay TV boxes.

Before you start to programme your remote control, please read the following important instructions:

Battery Replacement

If the batteries in your remote control need to be replaced, use two fresh 1.5 volt AAA alkaline batteries.  To install or replace the batteries, open the battery door on the back of the remote and insert the batteries in the direction indicated, then snap the battery door closed.

To test the batteries press "TV" then "POWER".  The red LED should illuminate.  If the LED does not illuminate, check the battery orientation, or replace them as needed.

Once you have programmed your remote control, you will not need to reprogram it again, unless the batteries are allowed to run flat and not replaced within a few hours.  It is recommended that the new batteries be installed immediately after removal of the old batteries.

Programming your Master Remote Control

You are now ready to programme the Master Remote Control.  Find the code for the device you wish to control in the Device Codes section on the reverse side of these instructions.

If the brand name of your device is not listed use the "Code Search" section of these instructions.

All codes are three-digit numbers.  As you programme each mode, write down the correct codes in the spaces provided, for future use.

Many devices have more than one code listed.  For these cases, start with the first code listed.  For example, if you have a Sony TV, the first code is 072.

Please note after entering a device code, the LED will flash twice.  If the LED does not flash twice, but turns off, you have entered an invalid code and the procedure must be repeated.

Also note that if it takes you longer than 20 seconds to press the next key in the programming sequence, the whole sequence will be erased and you will have to start again.  This feature is added to prevent the accidental reprogramming of the remote during regular viewing.

Programming your TV

Turn on your TV to your favourite channel.

In the "Device Codes" section look up the three-digit code for your TV under the manufacturer (brand).

• On the Master Remote Control, press and hold "TV" until the signal LED flashes on and off.
• Now enter the first three-digit code.  After depression of the first digit, the signal LED will stay on.  After entry of the last digit, the signal LED should flash twice and turn off.  If the signal LED does not flash twice but just turns off, an incorrect code has been entered and the procedure should be repeated.

After you have entered the code, point the remote at your TV and press .  If your TV turns off, you are finished programming the remote for the control of your TV.  Note the code below.

Programming your Pay TV

Turn on your Pay TV/Cable to your favourite channel.

In the "Device Codes" section look up the three-digit code for your Pay TV/Cable under the manufacturer (brand).

·          On the Master Remote Control, press and hold "CA" until the signal LED flashes on and off.

·          Now enter the first three-digit code.  After depression of the first digit, the signal LED will stay on.  After entry of the last digit, the signal LED should flash twice and turn off.  If the signal LED does not flash twice but just turns off, an incorrect code has been entered and the procedure should be repeated.

After you have entered the code, point the remote at your Pay TV terminal and press .  If your Pay TV terminal turns off, you are finished programming the remote for the control of your Pay TV terminal.  Note the code below.

PayTV/Cable Code:________________

If, after trying all of the codes listed for your PayTV /Cable the Pay TV terminal has not turned off, refer to the "Code Search" section of this guide.

Code Search

The Code Search allows you to search through the codes to determine the code that operates your device.  The Volume Up and Volume Down keys are used to step through the codes until the correct code is determined.  The procedure is as follows:

• Turn on the device that you want to control so it is actually showing a programme.
• Depress the mode key (TV, VCR or CA) until the signal LED flashes on and off (approx. 3 seconds).
• Depress the power key ().  The LED stops flashing and remains on.
• Now depress and release the VOLs key repeatedly and slowly until the device turns off.  The signal LED will turn off and on with each depression.  (Note:  If the device turns off, but you have depressed the VOL- key again, the VOL+ key may be depressed to return the remote to the correct code to operate the device.)
• When the device responds by turning off, depress the power key () to lock in the code.

Note:  It will take approx. 20 minutes to complete the search.  If your device has not turned off in that time the remote is not compatible with it.

Code Recall

This feature allows you to identify the code that operates your device when the "Code Search" method is used.  When the three digits are identified, you should write them down in the appropriate space of these instructions for record purposes.

The procedure is as follows:

• Depress the mode key (TV, VCR or CA) until the signal LED flashes on and off.
• Depress the C/P key.
• Count and record the sequence of flashes for the appropriate mode key.  Each digit is separated by a pause.  A zero is a rapid flashing of the LED.
