Programming Your Remote
Below are the instructions to program your new remote. These instructions apply to remotes that look like the image to the right.
Step 1: Tune your TV to the correct stream (Channel 4, 7, 13)
Step 2: Setting your remote to the existing Gateway ID
- On your remote, press the LED key and hold it down until the LED flashes rapidly.
- Press the REC key. The LED stops blinking at this point and stays on solid.
- Press the B key. The remote is now in programming mode. You can set the GATEWAY ID.
If you entered the Gateway ID correctly, the LED blinks several times. If not, the LED goes off and the remote control returns to normal operation. Repeat the steps above to try again. See “Determining the Gateway ID” on page 34 of the Residential Gateway User’s Guide.
Step 3: Setting the Remote Control ID
1. Press the LED key and hold it down until the LED flashes rapidly.
2. Press the REC key. The LED stops blinking at this point and stays on solid.
3. Press the A key. The remote is now in programming mode.
4. Enter the single-digit remote control ID as listed below:Remote Control ID #0 Local TV1 - TV in same room as the Gateway. Remote is set to operate in IR (infrared) mode.
Remote Control ID #1 Operates Remote TV1 - TV in different room than the Gateway.
Remote Control ID #2 Operates Remote TV2
Remote Control ID #3 Operates Remote TV3
Step 4: Programming the TV Code (Allows the remote to control your TV)The TV Code is a specific code for each brand and model of TV. When a TV Code is set, the remote control is able to address the specific signaling requirements for that TV.
- Turn TV on any channel.
- Press the LED key and hold it down until the LED flashes rapidly.
- Press the REC key. The LED stops blinking at this point and stays on solid.
- Press and release the C key. The remote is now in programming mode.
- Enter the three-digit code that corresponds to the brand name of the TV. See “TV Codes – SRC 300” on page 73 of the Residential Gateway User’s Guide.
If you need to do a Code Search, press the LED key until it flashes. Then push the REC key, the POWER key, and then use the up or down arrows until the TV turns off. When the TV turns off, press the Select key. Then go to Step 6.
NOTE: If you press the UP arrow too rapidly, you may pass the TV Code before the time the TV turns off. If you are not sure you are storing the correct TV Code, press the down arrow slowly to cycle back through the codes that have been previously scanned.
If the code is valid, the LED will flash on and off three times and then remain off.
If an invalid code is entered or a 20 second lapse in button presses occurs, the LED will turn off and the remote control will return to normal operation. You will need to repeat the above procedure to program the TV code.
- You may now press the POWER button to turn the TV on.
>>> These procedures need to be followed for each remote you use with the Residential Gateway.>>> Make sure your TV set stays on the channel listed on the back of the remote.
