Setup  
Using the Wizard  
(1)  
After you insert the batteries the Setup  
Wizard screen (1) appears. You can exit  
the Wizard at any time by pressing the  
HOME key (located just below the  
screen). Press any key at screen (1) to  
continue and follow the instructions on  
the screens.  
Battery Installation  
1. On the back of the remote, push down  
on the tab and lift the cover off.  
2. Match the batteries to the + and -  
marks inside the battery case, then  
insert 3 AAAlkaline batteries. Make  
sure you use new batteries. You can  
have problems with learning codes  
if your batteries are old.  
Pressing OK at screen (2) takes you to  
the next screen (3). Pressing the Left  
navigation key (Back key) on the remote  
at screen (3) takes you to screen (4) that  
has 10 yellow arrows. This is an  
exception to the rule because we’re  
teaching you how to use the remote. But  
pressing Back again at this point does  
take you “back.”  
(2)  
3. Press the battery cover back into  
place.  
Battery Saver  
Your remote automatically turns off if the keys are depressed  
for more than 30 seconds. This will save your batteries should  
your remote get stuck in a place where the keys remain  
depressed (e.g., between the sofa cushions). Also, the screen  
turns off a short time after no keys have been pressed for a  
while (or a short time after a key has been stuck for 30  
seconds). The duration before the screen turns off can be  
adjusted from about 2 seconds to about 35 seconds, from the  
Setup, Advanced, Options menu, see page 34.  
Try pressing the Back key a few times to  
go back through the Wizard and then  
follow the instructions on the screens  
again to familiarize yourself with how to  
step through the screens and go back.  
You can go back and forth through the  
Wizard but once you’ve set up your  
devices and quit to save the settings, you  
won’t see the Wizard again unless you do  
a Master Reset.  
(3)  
Permanent Memory  
All the devices you set up, their codes, punchthrough settings,  
and all your favorites, etc., are stored in permanent memory  
while you are changing batteries so you will not lose any  
codes or settings stored in the remote while you are changing  
batteries.  
To do a Master Reset: Press the HOME  
key, then select Setup, then select Clear  
Settings, then select Master Clear. Note  
this will erase everything you have set up  
in the remote.

Pressing Save shows screen (5) that  
instructs you to try a few other keys on  
the remote to make sure you’ve found  
the correct code. Tip: try keys like Menu,  
and Guide. Power might work yet you  
still might not have the correct code. If  
several keys seem to work fine, press  
Save Code. If some keys don’t work,  
select Change Code (or press Back) to  
go back and find another code that works  
better. Selecting Label lets you rename  
the device, e.g. you could call it My TV.  
You can ignore this for now and try it  
later if you like. See pages 11, 12, and 23  
for more details on entering text to  
change labels.  
How to set up a TV  
After you’ve been through the Wizard for  
the first time, the screen (1) shown to the  
right appears. This is the start of the  
Wizard to set up your devices (TV being  
the first one). Manually turn on the  
device(s) to be set up (TV, VCR, etc.).  
If you know your brand of TV, select Yes  
which results in a faster search for your  
TV’s code. (Selecting No searches the  
complete library of TV codes, rather than  
just the codes for your brand of TV).  
(6)  
Pressing the Side Key next to Yes at  
screen (1) takes you to a screen (2) where  
the most common brands are shown next  
to the Side Keys. If your brand isn’t  
shown you can press the Side Key  
adjacent to Next to show more brands,  
(shown alphabetically) or press the Side  
Key adjacent to Back to go back to the  
previous screen of brands. Note, on the  
very first screen of brands, the Side Key  
adjacent to Back takes you to the last  
screen of brands (so you can go back  
through the list instead of forward  
through it if you prefer). In this case we  
selected Philips.  
Pressing Save Code at screen (5) takes  
you to screen (6) where you set up a  
Cable box. You can quit at this point and  
set up other devices later, or you can continue and set up other  
devices - SAT, DVR, DVD, VCR, Audio, CD Player, or either  
of the 2 AUX devices.  
Let’s assume for now that you go ahead and set up a TV,  
Cable, and SAT.  
If you select No at screen (1) on the previous page the  
procedure will be similar to the above, except that you will be  
searching through the entire library of codes for your device  
to find the one that works best (instead of just searching  
through the codes for your brand of device, e.g., Philips).  
Screen (3) tells you to point the remote  
directly at your TV and repeatedly press  
(but not hold) Power (or Chan Up/Down,  
or Play for VCRs etc.) until your device  
responds. Pressing Power sends the  
Power command to your TV and screen  
(4) shows that you’ve selected code 1 of  
xx (xx will vary by brand). Keep pressing  
Power until your TV responds and then  
press Save.  
If you say Yes when asked if you know your Brand, but  
subsequently don’t find a code that works, you are asked if  
you want to try again (in case you missed it), or try all the  
codes for your device. If you try all codes for your device  
type, and still don’t find a code that works, you can skip it, or  
selected Learn. If you select Learn you can later learn the  
commands you want for that device type.

(1)  
(2)  
(3)  
Once you’ve gone through the Wizard  
and set up at least a TV, and set up more  
devices, or skipped the rest of them, you  
arrive at screen (1) to the right.  
If you want to add a label to the logo press the Side Key next  
to Label. This is optional so if you don’t want to add a label to  
the logo you can just select Save to save the setting for this  
favorite. If you save this favorite, Set Favorite 2 of 10 is now  
shown at the bottom of the screen to indicate that you can add  
another favorite channel. Again just press a channel number  
key on the remote, choose a logo and change the Device Type  
(if you want to). Add a few more favorites (up to 10). You can  
add more later, or delete or edit them later, or even reorder  
their positions. Select Done when you’re finished setting up  
favorites.  
If you select Label, you see the screen to  
the right with a small label on top of the  
logo. Initially the label will be the channel  
number for that logo. If you Save this, the  
logo will have a small label representing  
the channel number for that logo in it’s  
bottom right hand corner, see screen (5).  
Press any digit key, say digit 4, to enter  
a channel number. This takes you to  
screen (2). You can enter more digits if  
desired. The channel number can  
include a dash (-) for digital channels,  
e.g., 2-3, or can include ENTER, or OK,  
if your device requires it to change  
channels, e.g. 472Ok, or 550Ent.  
(5)  
But you can type in a new label if you  
want one. You enter the new name for  
the key using the numeric keys on the  
remote, in a similar fashion to typing in  
text on a cell phone.  
Now you press the Side Key next to  
Pick Logo on screen (2). You are shown  
a screen (3) of popular channel logos.  
You can select Next (Side Key 10) or  
Back (Side Key 5) to see more logos. In  
this example we pressed the NBC logo  
(Side Key 4). Screen (4) now shows that  
we’ve chosen channel 4 and the NBC  
logo. Note, you could also select the top  
left position which would display “4” as  
the favorite rather than a logo.  
(4)  
E.G. in this example we pressed the 5  
key twice to enter the letter K. Then we  
waited a second and pressed the 4 key  
repeatedly until the letter I was  
displayed. Then we waited a second and  
pressed 6 to select N. Then we waited a  
second and pressed the 4 key to select  
G. See next page.  
The Default device is this case was Sat,  
but you can select Pick Device to  
change it. In this case we changed it to  
Cable. Make sure you select the  
device that you want each favorite to  
control, e.g. TV, Cable, or Sat.

Setting UpYour Favorites, cont.  
Using The Remote  
Note: “Triple tap” name entry works in a similar fashion to  
text entry on a cell phone. Tap each numeric key to cycle  
through ALL caps, numbers, and lower case letters. E.G.,  
repeatedly pressing the number 2 key cycles through A, B, C,  
2, a, b, c. Pressing the 9 key cycles through W, X, Y, Z, 9, w,  
x, y, z. A “space” can be selected with the 0 (zero) key. The  
number 1 key selects 1 . @ ? ! - & and : You can backspace  
an entry with the key to the left of the 0 (zero) key. Press OK  
(or the Enter “E” key) to confirm your new name.  
(6)  
You can continue to add favorites, up to a  
total of 10 (you can add more later, see  
page 28). At screen (6) you choose if the  
favorites you just set up are stored in the  
“His” group or the “Hers” group. Later  
you can set up favorites in lots of  
Assuming you followed the steps on the previous pages and  
have set up some devices and some favorites you can now use  
the remote. See the sections that follow to set up more devices  
and/or favorites, and to set up other functions.  
Using the remote  
Press the HIS or HERS key at any time  
to access the favorites you’ve set up. Or  
press the FAVORITE key, then select  
your favorites group. Then press the  
Side Key next to the logo to change  
your device to that channel. Selecting a  
favorite group that has not yet been set  
up, takes you to the setup Wizard.  
Important: Make sure you point the remote at your device  
until the channel changes. Pressing a favorite key might send  
the commands for say channel 162, but if you don’t point the  
remote at your device until all three digits are sent you might  
just get channel 16, or even channel 1. Watch the flickering  
halo at the bottom left of the screen, it flickers for each digit  
sent. It also shows what device is being controlled.  
different Groups, not just His and Hers.  
Selecting His takes you to screen (7)  
showing that you now have NBC set as  
the first favorite in the His Group (at the  
location next to Side Key K1), as well as  
any other favorites you set up. (Note, you  
can reorder, i.e., move the positions of  
the logos later).  
(7)  
Press the HOME key at any time to  
access the screen where you can set  
things up, or access other features.  
Press the MODE key, then select a  
device type to change the mode that the  
remote is in. E.G., if the remote is in  
Cable mode then the hard keys such as  
Channel Up/Down, Volume Up/Down,  
numbers, etc., operate your cable box.  
When you’re finished setting up your  
favorites, press the HOME key (located to  
the left below the screen) to go back to the  
Home screen.  
Also, when you select a mode, any extra keys for that mode,  
and any keys you’ve learned for that mode are displayed. The  
current mode that the remote is in is displayed with an icon in  
the lower left of the screen. In the above example it’s in Cable  
mode. Press HIS or HERS to return to your favorites screen.  
At any time you can press the FAVORITE  
key and then select His, or press the His  
key at the top left hand side of the remote  
to go to screen (7) above. Then pressing  
the key next to the NBC logo will (in this  
case) change the channel on your Cable  
box to NBC (in this case channel 4).  
Before you continue, press Side Key K5 next to the Help icon  
and follow the prompts to get an idea of how to use the remote.

QuickPower  
Sleep  
QuickPower is a way of quickly turning  
all your devices on or off from one easy  
to use screen.  
Sleep lets you set any device to turn off a  
preset time from now. You can set the off  
time in increments of 15 minutes, up to a  
Maximum of 90 minutes.  
Press the HOME Key to go to the Home  
screen.  
Press the HOME key to go to the Home  
Screen, then press the Side Key next to

Only Devices you’ve previously set up  
are displayed. The others are grayed out.  
Press any key that isn’t grayed out to  
send the “Power” command for that  
device.  
You can set a sleep timer for any or all of  
the devices that you’ve set up, i.e., any  
that are not grayed out.  
In this example we only have a TV,  
Cable Box and Satellite Receiver set up.  
Below, we pressed Side Key K1 next to  
the TV icon once, to set a sleep timer of  
15 minutes.  
We pressed Side Key K2 next to the  
Cable Box icon twice, to set a sleep timer  
of 30 minutes.  
And we press Side Key K7 next to the  
Sat icon five times to set a sleep timer of  
1 hour and 30 minutes.  
Pressing OK takes you back to the Home  
screen with your sleep timers saved. The  
next time you select the Sleep screen  
you’ll see that the sleep timers have  
started to count down.  
Make sure you leave the remote  
pointing at the device(s) you’ve set  
Sleep Timers for so it can send the  
Power command to the device(s) at the  
time(s) you’ve set.

2. 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.  
3. Try learning the original remote keys again.  
4. If problems reoccur with the same key, check the original  
remote key being learned – does it transmit? Does it  
operate the target device?  
Tips On Learning  
a. Some functions from some types of remotes might not  
be able to be learned.  
b. No functions may be learned under the HOME,  
MODE, FAVORITE, HIS, or HERS (hard) keys.  
c. Use fresh batteries for both the IR10A remote and your  
Original Remote.  
d. Keep at least three feet away from incandescent or low-  
energy lights when learning.  
e. Place the original remote end-to-end with the IR10A  
remote so the IR transmitter (at the top) on your original  
remote points at the IR learning device on the bottom of  
the IR10A remote.  
You can learn commands from an existing  
remote and store them under the “Main”  
keys on the IR10A remote, or learn  
commands from an existing remote and  
store them under any of the 10 Side Keys.  
f. Keep the distance between the two remotes to  
approximately 1 inch.  
At the Home screen press the Side Key  
next to Learn.  
g. Line up the remotes and then press the key you want to  
learn. To get the correct range, press the key on the remote  
you are learning and you will see a “red halo” around the  
transmit icon at the bottom left of the screen starts to  
flicker. The best range for learning is when it flickers most  
rapidly. Move the position of the 2 remotes to achieve this.  
Do not change this “best distance” between the two  
remotes until you have learned all the required keys.  
h. When Learning, you should normally not release the key  
being learned until the display prompts you to do so.  
However, some keys might be learned multiple times if  
you do this. If this happens just “tap” the key you want to  
learn, rather than press and hold it. For example, keys that  
you normally hold down for a while (like volume up or  
down) will likely require a long press when learning. Keys  
that you normally give a quick press (like the numbers,  
and channel up/down) will likely require a quick press  
when learning. If after learning say the channel up key,  
you find that it changes multiple channels when pressed  
once, try relearning it with a short keypress.  
At this screen you press any of the 5  
Side Keys K1-K5 on the left to learn  
commands under a Side Key, or press  
any of the top 4 Side Keys K6-K9 on the  
right to learn commands under the main  
keys on the remote.  
If you press a right Side Key (to select Main Keys) you are  
going to learn, say, the Chan Up key from an existing remote  
and store it under the Chan Up key on the IR10A remote.  
Or learn the Power key from an existing remote and store it  
under the Power key on the IR10A remote, etc.  
If you press a left Side Key (to select Side Keys) you are  
going to learn, say, the “DVD Zoom” function from an  
existing remote and store it under a Side Key on the IR10A  
remote. You will then be able to name the key “DVD Zoom”  
and access this “DVD Zoom” function from the Mode screen  
when the remote is in the mode that you selected when you  
learned this “DVD Zoom” command.  
i. If learning the first or second keys results in continuous  
errors then try the following:  
1. Check the IR transmitters/sensors are correctly aligned  
between the two remotes.

At the Home screen press the Side Key  
next to Learn.  
You then press and hold (in this example)  
the Power key on the other remote, until  
the display shows that the command has  
been successfully learned. Note for some  
types of key you might need to hold the  
key pressed, but for other types a quick  
press is sufficient. Experiment a bit. If  
keys you learn are sent multiple times try  
learning them with just a quick press.  
(See Tips on Learning on page 16).  
If the screen says Failure, you can press  
the key and try again.  
Then press one of the top 4 Side Keys  
K6-K9 to the right of the screen.  
You can continue learning more  
individual keys by following the  
instructions on the screen, and then  
press Done when you’re finished. Or  
you can press Add Key to Macro, (see  
below and next page).  
Select the Device you want to learn  
keys for. In this example we only have a  
TV, Cable Box and Satellite Receiver  
set up, so the rest are grayed out, but  
you can still select any of the devices to  
learn commands for. You are then  
instructed to line up the remotes, and  
press the key on the IR10A remote that  
you want to learn.  
Learning a Macro - Main Keys  
At this screen you can select Add Key to  
a Macro. Then instead of learning  
another “separate” key, the next key you  
learn will be added to a Macro. This  
Macro will be activated by the key that  
you learned the first command under.  
E.G., you could press Power and learn  
the power command from your TV’s  
remote, then select Add Key to Macro,  
and press the 3 key and learn the channel  
3 key from your TV’s remote. Then the  
Macro stored under the Power key will  
turn on the TV and change the channel  
to number 3.  
You then point the remote you want to  
learn commands from at the bottom of  
the IR10A remote, and press the key  
on the IR10A remote that you want to  
learn a command under, e.g., the  
Power key.

In this case let’s set a 1 second delay  
between commands. Then point your  
existing remote at the bottom of the  
IR10A remote and press OK when  
you’re ready.  
Then press any of the Side Keys K1-  
K5 to the left of the screen.  
You then press the second key on your  
original remote that you want to add to  
the Macro.  
Select the device you want to learn keys  
for. In this example we only have a TV,  
Cable Box and Satellite Receiver set  
up, so the rest are grayed out, but you

selected TV.  
Some typical “extra” keys are already set  
up, (depending on the Mode you se-  
lected), the rest of them are called L6,  
L7, L8, etc., 27 keys in total. (You can  
rename them later). Press the Side Key  
that you want to learn a command under.  
(Note can choose one that already has a  
name, so as to “learn over it” and then  
later rename it). Let’s select L7.  
When success is displayed you can

power keys for your TV, and your audio system and extra keys  
for your DVD player under the DVD mode. Then when you  
press the MODE key and select DVD, you’ll be able to turn  
on your TV, turn on your audio system, and control your DVD  
player, all from the Side Keys on this one screen.  
If you select Change Label, by pressing  
Side Key K9, you can change the name  
to anything you want. For example  
you’ll likely want to rename it with the  
name of the function that you learned.  
After you select Change Label you see  
the screen to the right. You enter the  
new name for the key using the numeric  
keys on the remote, in a similar fashion  
to typing in text on a cell phone. See  
next page.  
Note: “Triple tap” name entry works in a similar fashion to  
text entry on a cell phone. Tap each numeric key to cycle  
through ALL caps, numbers, and lower case letters. E.G.,  
repeatedly pressing the number 2 key cycles through A, B, C,  
2, a, b, c. Pressing the 9 key cycles through W, X, Y, Z, 9, w,  
x, y, z. A “space” can be selected with the 0 (zero) key. The  
number 1 key selects 1 . @ ? ! - & : and back to 1. And you  
can backspace an entry with the key to the left of the 0 (zero)  
key. Press OK (or the Enter “E” key) to confirm your new  
E.G. in this example we pressed the 3  
name.

Learning Macros (Side Keys)  
Learning Macros, cont.  
A Macro could include the Power key for  
your TV, followed by the Power key for  
your Cable box, followed (after a 2  
second delay), by digit 4 from your cable  
remote. Then when you later activate this  
Macro it will turn on your TV, turn on  
your cable box, wait 2 seconds then set  
the cable box to channel 4.  
Line up the remotes and press OK when  
you’re ready.  
At the Home screen press the Side Key  
next to Learn.  
Then press any Side Key K1-K5 to the  
left to learn a Macro that you’ll save to a  
Side Key (and later rename it if desired).  
Next press the key (on the other remote)  
for the function you want to learn. Hold  
the key pressed until the screen says that  
the command was successfully learned.  
Note for some types of key you might  
need to hold the key pressed, but for  
other types a quick press is sufficient.  
Experiment a bit. If keys you learn are  
sent multiple times try learning them  
with just a quick press.  
Select the device you want to learn keys  
for. In this example we only have a TV,  
Cable Box and Satellite Receiver set up,  
so the rest are grayed out, but you can  
still select any of the devices to learn  
commands for. E.G., in this case we  
selected DVR.  
Press Side Key K8 next to “Add Key to  
Macro” to add more keys.  
Then select the Side Key that you want to  
store the Macro under. For example, L1.  
You can set a delay (1-10 secs) after  
which the command stored in the Macro  
will be sent. (Repeatedly press Side Key  
K9 next to Set Delay, or enter the delay  
directly with the numeric keys, 0-9).  
In this case we set a 2 second delay.

Point your existing remote at the bottom  
of the IR10A remote and press OK when  
you’re ready. Then press your next key.  
Setting up more Devices  
When you first inserted the batteries in  
the remote you likely went through the  
Wizard and set up a few devices. Here’s  
how to set up more devices. Press the  
HOME key to display the Home screen.  
Then press the Side Key next to Setup.  
Then press the Side Key next to Devices.  
Then pick a device you want to set up.  
After adding more keys you can keep the  
label for the key (in this case L1) or select  
Change Label, by pressing Side Key K9.  
If you select Change Label you can  
change the name to anything you want.  
For example you could call it My Macro,  
or Macro 1.  
(1)  
Note, it doesn’t have to be a device that  
is grayed out. You can also select any  
device that’s already set up (not grayed  
out) and change its settings. From this  
point, setting up a device is the same as  
you learned in the Wizard. See pages 8  
and 9. Note, you can select Aux 1 or  
Aux 2 from the Devices screen and then  
select any type of device to set up under  
either Aux key.  
After you select Change Label you see  
the screen below to the right.  
You enter the new name for the key using  
the numeric keys, in a similar fashion to  
typing in text on a cell phone. E.G. in this  
example we pressed the 6 key on the  
remote to enter the letter “M.” Then we  
pressed the 2 key repeatedly until the  
letter “a” was displayed. Then we waited  
a second and repeatedly pressed 2 to  
select “c.” Then we waited a second and  
repeatedly pressed the number 7 key until  
we selected “r.” Then the 6 key to select  
“o.” Then the 0 (zero) key twice to select  
a space, and then 1 to select 1. Macro 1 is  
then displayed.  
(2)  
Or you could select any device, and then  
press Change Type repeatedly, on screen  
(1) above, to scroll through the devices  
and change to TV (for example) to set  
up a second TV. Selecting Label, on  
screen (2) lets you rename the device,  
e.g. you could call it Den TV, and have  
another called Liv Rm TV.  
Note: “Triple tap” name entry works in  
a similar fashion to text entry on a cell  
phone. Tap each numeric key to cycle  
through ALL caps, numbers, and lower  
case letters. So at screen (3) you could  
press the 6 key to enter M, then the 9  
key 8 times for a lower case y, then the  
zero key twice for a space, then the 8  
key for T, then the 8 key three times for  
a V, to enter My TV. See pages 11, 12,  
and 23 for more details on entering text  
to change labels.  
Press Done to save the new label for the  
Macro you learned and stored under the  
L1 key.  
(3)  
The next time you select the Mode that  
the Macro was learned in (in this case  
DVR) you’ll see that you can press the  
Side Key next to “Macro 1” to activate  
the Macro.

Adding/Editing Favorites  
When you first inserted the batteries in  
the remote you likely went through the  
Wizard and set up a few favorites. You  
could only set up 10 favorites at that time.  
Here’s how to set up more favorites. Press  
the HOME key to display the Home  
screen. Then press the Side Key next to  
Setup.  
This lets you add favorites to an existing  
group, edit favorites in an existing group,  
or add favorites to a new group.  
Press the HOME key, select Setup, and  
then select Favorites. Then at the screen  
to the right select Add/Edit.  
Then press the Side Key next to  
Favorites.  
Select any group to add favorites to, or to  
edit existing favorites in.  
Pressing the Side Key next to an existing  
group (in this case His) shows the  
favorites that you previously set up in  
that group.  
Then press the Side Key next to Wizard.  
Then pick the group that you want to set  
up favorites in, (or add more favorites to).  
If you pick an existing group that you  
previously set up favorites in, say His,  
any new favorites will be added to the  
ones you already set up. If you already set  
up 10 favorites a new page will be added  
(you can have 10 pages of favorites).  
You can press a Side Key next to an  
existing logo (to edit/change it), or press a  
Side Key next to a blank location to add a  
new favorite, or press More to add or edit  
icons on a new page. For example, you  
might only want to have four favorites on  
this page and put some other favorites on  
their own separate page. Or you can fill  
up this page and add more to the next  
page (up to 10 pages of favorites).  
Groups that have not yet had any  
favorites added to them are grayed out,  
but can still be selected. From this point  
adding favorites is the same as you  
learned in the Wizard, so follow the  
directions on the screen (see also pages  
10-12).

Programming Combo Device Codes  
Some Combo devices (e.g. TV/VCR, TV/DVD, DVD/VCR,  
etc.) will require you to set up two different Mode keys to  
control both parts of the Combo device. For example, if you  
have a TV/DVD Combo, you might need to set up one code

various modes. For example you might want the Volume Up/  
Down and Mute keys to ALWAYS operate your TV, no matter  
what mode the remote is in. Or you might want the Play, Stop,  
Pause REW, FF, and Record keys to ALWAYS operate your  
VCR no matter what mode the remote is in.  
Device Codes

At this screen you set how you want the  
Volume Up/Down and Mute keys to  
operate when the remote is in TV mode.  
Press the HOME key, then select Setup,  
then select Advanced, then KidSafe.  
The first time you access the KidSafe  
menu you are asked if you want to set up  
a KidSafe Code. If you select Yes, you  
see this screen. You enter a 4 digit code  
that you will easily remember, but that  
your Kid(s) won’t guess.  
Then you select how you want the  
Channel Up/Down keys to operate when  
the remote is in TV mode.  
Then you select how you want the Play,  
Stop, Pause REW, FF, and Record keys to  
operate when the remote is in TV mode.  
After you enter a 4 digit code and press  
OK you see a screen that lets you pick a  
new KidSafe code, i.e., change it. And/or  
set the group of favorites that your Kids  
have access to (the default group is Kids  
but will be grayed out if you haven’t set  
that group up yet).  
For example, here we’ve set the Volume  
and Mute keys to operate the TV in TV  
mode (i.e. Punchthrough Not Set); Chan  
Up/Down to operate the Cable Box; and  
Play, Stop, Pause, etc., to operate the  
DVD Player - even though the remote is  
in TV mode.  
Here we’ve set the Volume and Mute to  
operate the TV; and Chan Up/Down to  
operate the Cable Box; - even though the  
remote is in DVD mode. Play, Stop,  
Pause, etc., will operate the DVD (i.e.  
Punchthrough Not Set for Play, etc.)  
You need to set up Punchthrough for  
each device you’ve set up in the remote.  
You can press the Side Key next to Pick  
Favorites and choose a different  
favorites group that you want your Kids  
to have access to, e.g., any other  
favorites group you’ve set up.  
After you’ve done this you now have  
the option to Turn KidSafe On. If you  
turn KidSafe On everything in the  
remote except access to the KidSafe  
group (and Volume/Mute keys) is  
locked out. No settings can be changed, and Channel Up/  
Down, and number keys don’t work.  
I.E., you need to set up how you want the “Volume Up/Down  
and Mute” “Chan Up/Down” and “Play, Stop, Pause REW, FF,  
and Record” keys to operate for each device that you have set  
up, i.e., for whatever mode the remote is set to.  
If you try to access any other favorite group, change a setting,  
or access any forbidden menu, you are asked to enter the  
KidSafe code. You cannot continue unless you enter the correct  
KidSafe code. See the Troubleshooting section if you forget  
your KidSafe code - but don’t let your kids read this owner’s  
manual!  
Note also that if you want some other keys to operate in a  
different mode from what they normally operate in, you can  
“learn” the key(s). E.G. if you want you TV’s INPUT key to  
still switch the TV’s input when you’re in cable mode, you can  
learn your TV’s INPUT key under cable mode.

X10 Home Control  
Having problems with learning?  
If you own or purchase an X10 IR Command Console, Model  
IR543 and X10 Lamp, Appliance, and Wall Switch Modules  
you’ll be able to control lights and appliances from your  
IR10A iconRemote. You point the iconRemote at the IR543, it  
receives IR commands and converts them to X10 commands.  
Refer to page 34 and set up code 0401 under AUX (or any  
other mode you prefer). Then in AUX mode (for example)  
press a number button on the iconRemote corresponding to the  
X10 Module you want to control, then press CHANNEL + to  
turn the module on, CHANNEL – to turn it off, VOLUME + to  
brighten Lamp and Wall Switch Modules, and VOLUME – to  
dim them. You can also press the POWER button to turn on  
ALL lights connected to Lamp and Wall Switch Modules and  
press MUTE to turn off all your X10 modules (including  
Appliance Modules).  
See Learning Tips on page 16.  
If some learned keys transmit multiple times, e.g. if a  
learned Channel Up key changes more than one channel  
when you press it, or Up/Down/Left/Right navigation keys  
move more than one step when you press the learned key;  
try just giving the key to be learned a quick press (when  
you learn it) rather than holding the key pressed until the  
screen displays Success.  
Your TV turns on when you press a Favorite key.  
Some types of TV, e.g. Philips flat panel TVs turn on and  
go to the selected channel when you press a channel  
number while the TV is off. So for this type of TV pressing  
a favorite key will do the same thing (but it might not work  
for 3 digit channels, e.g. 550).  
Troubleshooting  
Forgot your KidSafe code?  
Just remove and reinsert the batteries to reset KidSafe (but  
don’t let your Kids see this Owner’s Manual).  
The Favorites you set up don’t operate your device.  
Make sure you selected the correct device (TV, Cable, Sat,  
etc., when you set up each favorite. See Add/Edit Favorites  
page 29 to change the device type for your favorite(s).
