PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE
CHECKING THE CODES
If the R-8L remote was set up using the procedure from
Searching For Your Code
,” it may become necessary to fi nd
out which fi ve-digit code is operating the device. For example,
to fi nd out which fi ve-digit code is assigned to the TV:
1. Press the TV button once.
2. Press-and-hold the Setup button until the TV button
LED blinks twice, then release.
3. Enter 9 9 0. The TV button LED blinks twice.
4. To view the fi rst code digit, press 1. Count the number
of LED blinks. For example: three blinks = 3. If the code
digit is “0” the LED does not blink. Make note of this
number.
5. Continue through the fi ve digits by pressing 2 for the
second digit, 3 for the third, 4 for the fourth, and fi nally
5 for the fi fth. Count the LED blinks for each digit.
6. To check for the Aux button device code, repeat steps
1-5, substituting the Aux button for the TV button.
PROGRAMMING SOURCES 2, 3, 4, 5, AND 6
The IR commands for source devices 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 are learned
into the R-8L remote directly from the source device factory
remotes.
TECH TIP
To be certain that functions operate properly, all
IR commands for source devices 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6
must be learned from the original factory remote.
The total number of commands that can be stored
in the R-8L remote varies from 42 to 75, depending on the size of the
commands being learned.
PRECAUTIONS
• The source device factory remotes must be in working
order for the R-8L remote to learn IR codes properly.
• Learned buttons are device-specifi c; each stores a
unique function for each device. Be certain that the
correct source device is selected before learning codes.
• Do not use any of the Source buttons or the Setup
button to learn.
• Certain IR command codes cannot be learned, including
multi-frequency types, some high-frequency types, and
other unusual formats.
• During programming, avoid high levels of ambient light,
such as natural sunlight or fl uorescent lighting.
PROGRAMMING A LEARNING BUTTON
Have the source device factory remote handy before beginning the
programming process.
To program a learning button:
1. Place the R-8L remote control and the source device factory
remote head-to-head (about 2” apart).
2. Locate the button on the source device factory remote that
the R-8L is going to learn.
3. Press the Source button on the R-8L that corresponds to
the source device
4. Press-and-hold the Setup button until the Source button
LED blinks twice, then release.
5. Enter 9 7 5. The Source button LED blinks twice. If the LED
displays one long fl ash instead, the R-8L batteries are low,
or the R-8L’s memory is full. In either case, the remote
cannot learn a new button.
6. Press the R-8L button that is to learn the command. The
Source button LED will blink rapidly for three seconds,
indicating the remote is ready to learn.
7. On the source device factory remote, press-and-hold the
button to be learned. Continue holding the button until the
R-8L’s Source key LED blinks twice. If the Source button
LED displays one long blink, a learning error has occurred.
Try repeating the steps again until a successful capture is
obtained. If the function cannot be captured, press-and-
hold the Setup button to exit programming. Review the
Learning Precautions” section above. Also review the
Troubleshooting” section at the end of the system guide.
After review, start the programming procedure again.
8. Repeat steps 6-7 for each button to be learned. Once all
buttons have been learned, press-and-hold the Setup
button until the Source key LED blinks twice to save all
data learned.
