AT&T A10 Universal Remote User Manual


 
NOTE:
The remote control will only control the
device which is selected by the
appropriate mode key (AT&T, TV, DVD,
and AUX). The mode key light for the
selected device flashes each time a valid
key is pressed.
Controlling Other Devices
In order to control other devices with your
4:1 Universal Remote Control, you need
to tell the remote control what types of
devices you have. Sections A and B bring
you through the steps needed to do this.
The volume controls will work for the
device mode you are in. If you want to
change this, you should follow the steps
in Section F.
Programming the remote to control
other devices
To use the U-verse remote control for your
other devices, you will need to set up the
TV, DVD and AUX mode keys to control
the devices (Section A).
Please refer to the code list for a list of
supported brands and models. If you do
not find the brand of your device on the
supported code list, please refer to section
B for the search function or you may use
section C for instructions on the learning
feature of your remote control. If you
have an integrated or combination unit
such as a TV/DVD, each component of
the unit may require being set up
separately by setting up both the TV and
DVD mode keys.
NOTE: The DVD and AUX mode keys
can be set up with any code. The TV mode
key can only be set up with TV codes.

the remote control times out. The
selected mode key light flashes for 3
seconds and turns off. The remote
control returns to normal operation
and you will need to start over.
F. Volume Control Set Up Options
The volume controls will work for the
device mode you are in, e.g. if AT&T
mode is selected then volume controls
your AT&T U-verse unit, if TV mode is
selected then volume controls your TV,
etc. If you'd like the volume commands
to operate from just one device, e.g.

5. Repeat Steps above for each key you
want the U-verse remote to learn.
Press and release the LEARN key when
all desired remote commands have been
learned.
NOTE:
It is not necessary to have your U-verse
remote control learn every key from your
original remote since most of the keys will
not be used under normal daily use. Best
practice is to teach only the keys that help
you navigate for the best experience, like
your volume up and down, channel up
and down, and DVR functions.
D. Clearing Commands
D-I. To Clear all Learned Commands
(under a single mode)
1. Press and hold the mode key (TV,

G. Battery saving backlight
cancellation feature
In order to extend the life of your battery
between charges, your U-verse remote
control has the ability to toggle between
turning the backlights on or off. If you
wish to use this feature, follow these in-
structions.
1. Press and hold the TV key and while
holding it pressed, press the OK key
for one second and release both keys
at the same time.

lights turn on when the remote control is
being used, simply follow the same steps
of this section one more time.
H. Charging Base setup
Connect the Charging Base to the back
of your U-verse set top box via the
supplied USB connector or by using the
included plug-in power supply. Place the
remote into the Charging Base to charge
the rechargeable battery in the remote
control. It takes approximately 12 hours
to fully charge the battery in the remote
but you will be able to use your new
remote control within 30 minutes of
charging. To ensure that you have placed
the remote control on the charging base,
the charging indicator located next to the

charged.
H. Find feature
Never lose your remote again! If you have
misplaced the remote control and can not
locate it, simply press the AT&T globe on
the Charging Base and the remote control
will play the AT&T ring tone as well as
flash several of the remote keys. This
should help you locate your lost remote
control.
H-I. Setting the Clock
Use the +H and +M buttons to set the
Hours and Minutes for the clock. Both
the +H and +M buttons are located at the
bottom on your new Charging Base.
H-II. Finding more than one remote
If there is more than one remote and
Charging Base, you can set each Charging
Base to find only its own remote with 16
unique codes. With the first power up of
the Charging Base, it will be set to find
ALL remotes.
To set the Charging Base so that it finds
a specific remote when there are multiple
remote in the household, follow these
instructions:
1. Press and hold both clock setting keys
(+H and +M) at the same time for 3
seconds. The display shows the
current ID, from 1 to 16 or ALL.
2. Press the +M key to cycle from 1 to
16 including a selection for all remotes
in the household.
3. Then press the +H key to confirm the
selection.
To set the remote to the same ID as the
Charging Base, follow these instructions:
1. Press and hold the TV key and while
holding it pressed, press the OK key
for one second and release both keys
at the same time. Next press the
MENU key to enter ID learn mode
(both the AT&T and AUX lights
remain on).
2. Press the Find key on the Charging
Base – the remote will accept the new
ID and the lights will flash once and
then turn off.
3. To exit this mode without changing the
code, simply press any key.
H-III. Dimming and brightening the
clock on the Charging Base:
Simply pressing and holding the Charging
Base find key while the remote is in the
Charging Base causes the display to dim.
Holding down the find key until fully dim
followed by releasing the find key and
holding it down again causes the clock to
be brighter and return to its original
illumination.
I. Troubleshooting Learning
You can only learn one device type under
any one mode key. For example, only
learn TV codes under the TV mode, DVD
codes under the DVD mode, etc. If you
are trying to learn from a "Universal"
remote, it might have more than one code
type stored under a mode.
a. No functions may be stored under the
LEARN key in the AT&T mode.
b. Depending on the remote you are
trying to learn, some keys may not be
learnable.
c. Only one original device type can be
learned per individual mode.
d. Use fresh batteries for your original
remote, and make sure the batteries in
your U-verse remote are fully charged.
e. Keep at least three feet away from
incandescent or low-energy lights
when learning.
f. Before learning, clear all learned
commands (refer to Section D-II) then
try learning 2 or 3 commands initially.
g. Point your original remote at the
bottom end of your U-verse remote so
the IR elements on both remotes are
directly in line with each other (see
diagram to the right). You may need
to adjust the height of either remote to
achieve this.
h. Avoid learning your original remote's
Volume/Mute keys unless you are sure
these operate the same device.
i. Avoid learning your original remote's
VCR or DVD transport keys unless
you’re sure these operate the same
device.
j. If learning the first or second keys for
a mode results in continuous errors
then try the following:
i. End the learn session by pressing the
LEARN key.
ii. Clear out the learned commands for
that mode.
iii.Check the IR elements are correctly
aligned between the two remotes.
iv. Adjust the distance between the two
remotes to be closer (e.g. half an inch)
or a further away (e.g. 2 inches) from
each other.
v. Try learning the original remote for
that mode again. If problems reoccur
with the same key check the original
remote key being learned – does it
transmit? Does it operate the target
device? Try learning that key under a
different clear mode. If it learns OK
then it is likely to be a different code
type from the others and cannot be
learned under the same mode.
