Safety instructions 1 Please read these instructions carefully before operating the remote control. Keep the instructions in a safe place for future reference or in case you need to pass them on to someone else. General information • Do not attempt to repair the remote control yourself. • The universal remote control contains an infrared laser class 1 diode. The device has a safety system that prevents the emission of dangerous laser rays escaping from the device during normal use.
PAGE 4
Product Description 2 This universal remote control has eight mode keys and therefore can replace up to eight normal remote controls ("8 in 1 function“). These may be remote controls for practically every type of remote-controlled consumer electronics (see the supplied code list). The labels "TV" "VCR" "DVD" "CD" "ASAT" "CBL" "AUX" "DSAT" on the mode keys are for overview purposes. With the exception of the TV key, you can assign any key to any device (“Flex Mode”).

Normal operation 10 Operating individual devices After you have finished programming your remote control for your audio/video devices, the remote control will work in the common main functions just like the original remote control for the respective device. Point your remote control at the desired device and press the relevant mode key. The mode key label is displayed with the programmed in code.
PAGE 17
EPG – Electronic Programme Guide The EPG ("Electronic Programme Guide") key has various functions depending on which code has been used: • For TV and satellite codes (e.g. SAT-TV or DVB-T), the button opens the electronic programme guide. • For DVD codes the button opens the title menu. • For VCR codes you can use the button for programming, if your video recorder has a Showview function. If the device has both an EPG and a Showview function, the EPG function is given priority.
PAGE 18
ALL OFF function You can switch off all pre-programmed devices at the same time. This is done as follows: 1. Press the ALL OFF key twice in rapid succession and keep it pressed down after the second time for approx. 3 seconds. 2. When you release the key, ALL OFF appears and the devices are switched off. Some devices can be switched on and off with the ALL OFF key Devices switched off in such a way will, if they were switched off, be switched back on when you perform the ALL OFF function. Helpline No.

Command timer The clock must be set for this timer. You can use the command timer to program a function that is to run automatically at a particular time within the next 24 hours. The command series can contain up to four commands, the first command must always be the selection of a mode key. The following keys are not available for the remaining three commands: the mode keys, the joystick (arrows and OK), MACRO, SETUP, EXIT. You can create four command timers (Timer 1, Timer 2, Timer 3, Timer 4).
PAGE 21
11. The TIMER 1 KEY2 display appears. Enter the second command. In our example: Press the Record key. 12. The TIMER 1 KEY3 display appears after the second command. In our example, press the Record key again. 13. The SUCCESS confirmation message appears along with the bell symbol after the third command. 14. Lay the universal remote control down so that it is pointing towards the device and is not obstructed. You can cancel programming at any time by pressing EXIT.
PAGE 22
Learn function 12 You can manually save the functions of an original remote control to your universal remote control. Commands are saved to the mode key on which the device of the original remote control was programmed. The universal remote control can “learn” up to 150 commands. Notes on learn function • Use new batteries for both remote controls.
PAGE 23
Program commands To programme, proceed as follows: 1. Place the remote controls with the infrared diodes facing each other spaced 15 to 50 mm apart on the table. The infrared diodes must be pointing directly at each other. 2. Keep the Setup key pressed for approx. 3 seconds until CODE SETUP appears. 3. Press Setup briefly three more times to open the LEARN SETUP menu. 4. Press OK to open the learn mode. 5. Confirm once again with OK. 6.
PAGE 24
Delete commands Deleting commands for only one mode key Open the learn mode as described in the previous section, steps 2 to 4. Proceed as follows: 5. Use the arrows to select the delete mode and press OK. 6. Now select the mode key whose commands are to be deleted. 7. Confirm the additional CONFIRM CLEAR prompt by pressing OK. If this message does not appear then the mode key does not have any commands associated with it. 8.
PAGE 25
Macros 13 Using a macro, you can save a chain of commands, meaning that several functions can be executed consecutively. You can program three macros and store them on the number keys 1, 2 and 3. These three number keys have the additional labels TV, VCR, DVD, so that you can assign macros accordingly. Each macro can include up to ten key commands. A macro can include different devices.
PAGE 26
Incorporating delays It can be useful to incorporate a time delay before a command step in order to take the warm-up phase of the TV set into consideration, for example. The standard delay between the infrared signals is equal to half a second. 1. While entering the steps (see Point 7 above) press the PAUSE key at the point where the time delay should be incorporated. The DELAY TIME? query appears. 2. Press a number key corresponding to the seconds by which you would like to delay (e.g.

Universal functions (“Punch Through”) 14 The universal functions (also called “Punch Through” functions) enable you to carry out certain functions on a different device type than the programmed one. These are the volume, mute and playback functions. Playback functions If the remote control is in TV, SAT or cable mode (devices without playback function), the PLAY, STOP, PAUSE, FAST FORWARD/BACK, and in some cases RECORD keys will control a connected video recorder, DVD player or video recorder.
PAGE 28
Programming the VOL/MUTE universal functions to another device type You can program the remote control so that the universal functions VOL/MUTEwill control a device type other than the TV set. Of course this device must have a volume control. 1. Keep the Setup key pressed down for approx. 3 seconds, until CODE SETUP appears. 2. Press Setup again briefly to open SYSTEM SETUP. 3. Press OK" The VOL/MUTE SETUP is displayed. 4. Press OK again. The following menu is displayed ALL VOL. SET.
PAGE 29
Switching off the VOL/MUTE universal function for a specific device You can program the universal remote control in such a way that it will use only that particular device’s own VOL/MUTE functions. The "Punch Through" function for this device is therefore switched off. The universal function cannot be switched off for the TV mode.
PAGE 30
Restoring the VOL/MUTE universal function factory settings If you have changed the universal VOL/MUTE functions as described in the previous two sections, you can reset the functions to the factory settings. 1. Keep the Setup key pressed down for approx. 3 seconds, until CODE SETUP appears. 2. Press Setup again briefly to open SYSTEM SETUP. 3. Press OK" The VOL/MUTE SETUP is displayed. 4. Press OK again. The VOL/MUTE ALL menu is displayed. (press twice) to select the VOL/MUTE 5. Use the arrows RESET menu.

Error recovery 15 The display remains dark: • Check whether the remote control batteries have been correctly inserted and have matching +/– polarity. • If the batteries are too weak then replace them with new ones. The remote control does not work: • Check whether your devices have been properly connected and are switched on. There are several device codes listed under the brand name of my device.
