Phone Up 4 Remote Control
(15-1917) Features Faxback Doc. # 35332
Your Radio Shack Phone Up 4 Remote Control lets you operate almost any
infrared device in your home from a distance. The Phone Up 4 can replace
up to four standard remote controls.
Unlike some universal remote controls, the Phone UP 4 is preprogrammed and
does not need to learn its commands from the original remote controls. All
you need to do is enter the 4-digit code for each infrared remote
controlled device you want to operate. The Phone Up 4 is automatically
ready to operate most of the same functions as the original remote
controls.
The Phone Up Remote Control also has these features:
Powerful Infrared Beam - lets you operate many remote controlled devices
from a greater distance than with the original
remote controls.
Convenient Keypad Design - each control key is in the perfect position for
easy operation.
Lighted Keypad - lets you use the Phone Up 4 even in a dark or
dimly lit room.
Channel Scan - lets you scan through all available channels on
your TV, VCR, or cable converter without having
to press a button for each channel.
Favorite Channel Scan - lets you Scan through up to 10 channels you
select.
Sequences - lets you reduce a sequence of up to 15 commands
to a single key press.
Punch-Through - lets you control two different devices without
pressing the device key for each one first.
Sleep Timer - turns off your device in 15 minutes using the
built-in sleep timer, or controls a device's
built-in sleep timer (if one exists).
Toll-Free Upgrading - call our toll-free Customer Service Hotline at
1-800-950-7044, and we will upgrade your Phone
Up 4 over the phone.
Note: You need four AAA alkaline batteries (not supplied) to power your
Phone Up 4.
This manual includes a list of 4-digit manufacturer's codes for TVs, VCRs,
cable converters, compact disc players, satellites and other popular
remote controlled devices. It also has a list of specific device codes.
How The Phone Up 4 Works
Before you begin to use the Phone UP 4, it is helpful to understand a
little about how it works - nothing technical, only an idea of what you
can expect from the Phone Up 4 and its different groups of keys.
When you set up the Phone Up 4, its command keys work like the keys on
your original remote controls. For example, a key labeled POWER ON/OFF on
your original remote control is equivalent to the Phone Up 4's PWR key.
Your Radio Shack Phone Up 4 was designed with the functions used most
often to operate your TV, VCR, cable converter, CD player, and DSS
satellite receiver.

tapes.

If you use the Phone Up 4 to replace complex remote controls, the

seldom-used functions.

original remote control might have a slightly different function.
