Both Code Search methods search all of the codes because your component's code may be listed under another brand in the code list. Note: The Code Search method may take a long time because the remote searches all of the codes in its memory for the code which operates your component. Therefore, if your brand is listed in the Code List, use the Direct Entry method described on pages 5-8. Manual Code Search CODE INDICATOR 1.
