In addition to being programmed to operate your television, it's already programmed to operate most RCA components. The AUX•HD button can be programmed to operate most brands of an additional remote-controllable component: satellite receiver, cable box, DVD, VCR, and an audio component. A second and third RCA TV can be programmed to any component button, except the TV button. Note: The TV button can't be programmed on this remote to control any component; it controls only this TV. Find Out If You Need to Program the Remote To determine whether the universal remote needs to be programmed to operate one of the components connected to your TV, such as a DVD player, do the following: 1. Turn on the component (in this example, a DVD player). 2. Point the remote at the component. 3. Press the corresponding component button (in this example, DVD). 4. Press ON•OFF to see if the DVD player responds. If the DVD player doesn't respond, you need to program the remote to operate it. You'll use these buttons for the Auto Code Search. Important: The remote may not be compatible with all models of all brands of components. It also may not operate all functions of the remote that came with your component. Tip To stop the automatic code search without programming any components, press and hold CLEAR until the component button on the remote turns off. Programming the Remote There are two ways to program the remote control to operate other components: Automatic Code Search and Direct Entry. Using Automatic Code Search Note: The AUX•HD button can only search VCR codes, but can be used for a non-VCR device by programming it with direct entry method. By default, the AUX•HD button is programmed for an RCA HDTV Tuner receiver. The following instructions can be used to program the remote to operate each of your components. If you want to stop the automatic code search without programming any of your components, press the CLEAR button until the component button you're trying to program turns off. 1. Turn on the component you want to control (VCR, satellite receiver, etc.) 2. Press and hold the button you want to program. While holding the component button, press and hold ON•OFF until all of the component buttons (VCR, TV, DVD, AUDIO, AUX•HD, and SAT•CABLE) flash. Then, release both buttons. 3. Point the remote at the component, press and release PLAY, then wait five seconds or until the component button you're trying to program stops flashing. 24 Chapter 2
