Setup
Battery Installation 1. Push down on the tab on the back of the remote and lift off the cover. 2. Install 2 AAA alkaline batteries (not included) into the battery compartment as indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and -) marked inside. 3. Replace the cover. When the remotes range decreases or it does not operate properly, replace the batteries. You have 2 minutes to change the batteries without losing codes you have programmed. However, do not press any buttons until batteries are installed. If buttons are pressed without batteries in the remote, all codes will be lost. Battery Saver Your remote automatically times out if the buttons are pressed more than 30 seconds. This will save your batteries should your remote get stuck in a place (for example, between sofa cushions) where the buttons remain pressed. TV Volume/Mute Punch-Through The TV Volume/Mute punch-through feature lets you control the Volume and Mute function of your TV in any mode programmed to be a VCR, DVD, Cable, or SAT device without changing to TV mode. TV/VCR Punch-Through VCR Punch-through is only available in TV mode and any mode programmed for Cable, the 6 VCR keys (Play, Pause, Stop, Record, FF and Rewind) will punch-through to the device programmed under VCR (in TV mode), or any mode programmed for Cable.

Introduction
Thank you for buying this Nexxtech 3-in-one Universal Remote. You can use your remote to replace a broken or lost remote or combine the functions of up to three remotes. This remote control operates the common features of most (but not all) models and brands of IR (Infrared) controlled video equipment. This remote may support functions that are not available on your device. Some functions of your particular device (such as menu functions) may not be controlled by this remote. In such cases, use the original remote control for your device. Please use this manual to become familiar with your remote, then install batteries and set up your remote for your particular device and brand.

Button Functions
Note: Some buttons on the remote might have functions that are labeled differently on the device you are controlling, depending on the brand and model of your device. For example, Last may be called RECALL or Previous Channel; ENTER may be called DISPLAY. Also, this remote can only operate features that exist on your device. For example, your device must have Previous Channel capability for the Last button to operate this feature. The remote powers on in TV mode.

A-B

Operates as TV/Video, TV/VCR, etc., depending on mode.

Code Programming
The P (Program) button is used to program the remote. You can program the remote using the code for your brand of device from the code list, or search through the library of codes until you find a code that works for your device. You can store any kind of code under any mode (except TV). For example, you can store a CD code under the SAT/CBL button, or an Audio code under the DVD/VCR button, etc. However, you can only store TV codes under the TV button. Direct Code Entry 1. Press and hold the P (Program) button until the red indicator stays on. Release the P button. 2. Press and release the desired mode button (TV, VCR, etc.). The red indicator blinks, then stays lit. 3. Enter the 3 digit code from the code list. Note: The red indicator turns off after a valid code entry and flashes for an invalid code. 4. With your device on, press Channel Up. If the device responds, no further setup is required. Note: If some buttons on your device do not operate, try one of the other codes for your brand.

Code Programming, cont.

Programming with Code Search If your product does not respond after you have tried all the codes for your brand, or if your brand is not listed, try searching for your code by following these steps. 1. Manually turn on the device (TV, VCR, etc.) to be controlled. 2. Press and hold the P (Program) button until the red indicator stays on. Release the P button. 3. Press and release the desired mode button (TV, VCR, etc.). The red indicator blinks, then stays lit. 4. Press the Channel Up button repeatedly (up to 300 times) until the device to be controlled changes channels. If you accidentally overshoot the desired code, press the Channel Down button to backtrack through the library until the device changes channels. Pressing Channel Up changes the direction to forward again. 5. Press and release the Enter button to set the code. If the device does not have a Channel Up button, use Play (VCR/DVD) or Power instead. If you go all the way through the code library without finding the correct code the indicator blinks a few times then goes off. The Code Search method above assumes that you want to store VCR or DVD codes under the VCR/DVD button, SAT or Cable codes under SAT/CBL, etc. If you want to store a SAT code under VCR/DVD, first press the P (Program) button. Then press VCR/DVD. Then enter any SAT code from the code list. Then proceed from step 4 for Code Search above.

Code Identification
1. Press and hold the P (Program) button until the red indicator stays lit. Release the P (Program) button. 2. Press and release the desired mode button (TV, VCR, etc.). The red indicator blinks, then stays lit. 3. Press and release the P (Program) button. The indicator light blinks off. 4. To find the first digit for the code stored under the mode key you pressed in step 2, press each numeric key from 0-9 in turn. When the indicator blinks off, the number you pressed is the first digit for the code you are searching for. 5. Repeat step 4 to find the second and third digits. (Indicator goes off when third digit is found).

Troubleshooting
Remote does not operate your device. Press the mode button of the device you want to control. Program the remote with a new code. Install new batteries. (You might have to reprogram your remote after installing new batteries.) Remote may not be compatible with your device. Remote does not operate some features of your device. Program remote with a new code. Remote may not be able to operate all features of your device or button names might be different than your device. Indicator light blinks after you program a device code. Remote did not accept the code. Try to program the code again or try a different code.

Operation
1. Press the mode button for the desired device. 2. Aim the remote at the device. 3. Press POWER to turn on the device. 4. Press other buttons to operate the features of your device. Note: The REC button must be pressed twice to record from your VCR. For some brands of VCRs, you might need to press the REC button once, then press it again for three seconds.
