the remote to control.
Test the remote with the device to make sure the device
key is programmed with the correct code for maximum
functionality. If some features don’t work, try a different
code. See the “Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality”
section below for more information.
During the Manual Code Search, the remote ignores

a different search method.
Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality
1.
Try a variety of the device’s functions with the remote. If
some features of your devices don’t work, go to the next
step to try a different code.
2.

Volume Punch-Through
Volume Punch-through allows the VOL and MUTE keys,
when pressed in
SAT•CBL•STRM
, DVD, DVR or VCR modes,
to “punch through” to either TV or AUDIO, whichever was
accessed last. Volume Punch-Through occurs automatically
and allows you to control the volume without exiting the
current mode. (If either AUX key has been programmed with a
TV or AUDIO code, volume can punch through to these devices
as well.)
Note:
Volume Punch-Through does not occur in cases where
the component code has its own volume/mute controls, such
as some satellite receivers.
Advanced Punch-Through
Volume Punch-Through, as described above, occurs
automatically. If you want to specify whether Volume
Punch-Through is directed to the TV or AUDIO while in
SAT•CBL•STRM
, DVD, DVR•AUX1 or VCR•AUX2 modes, follow
the steps below.
Note:
This option can also be enabled for an AUX key, if it is
programmed with a VCR, DVR, DVD, CD, SAT or TV code.
1.
Press and hold the key whose volume commands you
want to send to the TV or audio device. The indicator light
turns on.
2.
While holding down the device key, press and hold the
VOL up key. The indicator light turns off.
3.
After holding down both keys for 3 seconds, the indicator
light turns on and stays on. Release both keys.
4.
Press and release the device key you want the Volume
Punch-Through to be directed to from the selected mode
(TV, AUDIO or AUX key). The indicator light flashes, then
turns off.
Note:
The device key pressed in step 4 must be programmed
with a TV or AUDIO component. If an invalid key is pressed,
the LED flashes four times, then turns off.
Important:
Once you have programmed any device with a
specified Volume Punch-Through, the Volume Punch-Through
for all other devices defaults to AUDIO. If you do not want
other components’ Volume Punch-Through to default to
AUDIO, you must manually program them, using steps 1-4.
Note:
To program for a DVD player, you must first press and
hold the DVD key. While you’re holding the DVD key, press the
number 3 key. Then release both keys.

4.
Test the key’s functionality again by trying a variety of
functions. If the code controls the majority of the device’s
functions, programming is complete. If the code stored
does not give maximum functionality, try another code.
