IF YOU HAVE PROBLEMS

SEARCHING THE CODE LIBRARY

If the 6 in 1 RF Remote Control System's remote control does not operate
your remote-controlled devices when you first set it up, you probably
haven't entered the correct 3-digit codes for your devices.  You can try
all the codes for the brand of your device, but because many manufacturers
make products using several different brand names, you might want to search
the system's entire library by following these steps.

1.  Manually turn on the device you are trying to set up, then press the
    appropriate device key on your system's remote control.

2.  Aim the system's remote control at the device.

3.  Press and hold down SET UP unti the red indicator blinks twice. 
    Release SET UP and press 9 9 1.  The red indicator blinks twice.

4.  After the two blinks, repeatedly press PWR, then the device key for the
    type of device.  For example:

                          PWR TV PWR TV PWR

    Each time you press the device key, the remote control advances to the
    next manufacturer's code in its library.

5.  When the device responds, press and release SET UP to lock in the
    manufacturer's code.

If necessary, repeat these steps for each device key.


VIEWING A DEVICE'S CODE

To determine which 3-digit code the system's remote control is set to,
press the device key, then hold down SET UP until the red indicator blinks
twice.  Release SET UP and press 9 9 0 1.  The system blinks out the number
of the first digit of the manufacturer's code.

NOTE:  The red indicator light does not blink if a digit in the code is a
       zero.

Press 2 to see the second digit of the manufacturer's code, and 3 to see
the third digit.


TROUBLESHOOTING

If the system's remote control stops working after you successfully test
the control of each device, or if you are unable to get the remote control
to work at all, check the following:

     Use manual controls or the original remote control to confirm that
     your remote-controlled devices are working properly.

     Be sure you pressed the device key for the device you want to control.

     Replace the remote control's batteries.

     If you are using the system's RF command console, make sure it is
     plugged in and installed in the same room as the IR remote controlled
     devices you want to operate.  Be sure to point the RF command console
     at the devices you want to control.

     If some buttons do not function for your device, you might be able to
     search for a better device code.

If you are still unable to determine the problem, call our nationwide
Universal Remote Control Hotline at 1-800-950-7044.
