Programming device codes

For every device that you would like to operate using the universal remote control, you must program a four-digit device code to a mode key (TV, VCR, DVD, CD, ASAT, CBL, AUX, DSAT). The names on the keys are only for reminder purposes. With the exception of the TV key you can assign any key to any device (Flex Mode). The TV mode key can only be assigned to TV device codes. Your universal remote control is pre-programmed with proprietary codes from Tevion devices and its most important functions can be used with proprietary Tevion devices without requiring any extra programming.
Device types and code groups
You can choose between the following device types when programming in codes: TV: VCR: LD: DVD: DVR: HDD: SAT: CABLE: DVBT: STB: AUDIO: AMP: RECR: HTIB: MP3: CD: TAPE: TUNER: TV set, projector, plasma screen, LCD; Video recorder; Laser disc player; DVD player; Digital video recorder; Hard disk drive; Satellite receivers (analogue, digital); Cable box, Pay TV decoder; DVB-T receivers; Set top box; Audio device; Amplifier; Receiver (combined radio and amplifier); Home Cinema; MP3 player; CD player; Cassette players; Radio;

PHONO: Record player.

Assigment to code groups Each type of device is assigned to a group of device codes. When you select a device type, the appropriate code group is searched to find a device code. Device types are assigned as follows: Device type TV VCR, LD, DVD, DVR, HDD, HTIB SAT, CABLE, DVB-T, STB, Code group TV VCR/DVD CBL/SAT
AUDIO, AMP, RECR, MP3, CD, TAPE, TUNER, PHONO, HTIB CD/AUDIO (some)

Programming options

The following sections describe the different methods for finding a device code: by selecting a code for a certain device type in the display, according to the enclosed Code List, by running a search, by brand name. For combined devices (e.g. TV set with video recorder, TV set with DVD player, DVD and video recorder) it is often necessary to assign two mode keys with the respective code for each part of the device (e.g. the TV mode key for TV functions and a different mode key for the VCR or DVD functions). However, there are also combined devices with only one code for both device parts (see also Operating combined devices on page 17).

Operating individual devices
After you have finished programming your remote control for your audio/video devices, the remote control will work in the common main functions just like the original remote control for the respective device. Point your remote control at the desired device and press the relevant mode key. The mode key label is displayed with the programmed in code. [For the universal functions see Universal functions (Punch Through) on page 27 you do not need to press the mode key in advance.] Activate the functions by pressing the corresponding function key on your universal remote control. The symbol for infrared transmission appears each time you press a key. Each time a key is pressed the display backlight switches on for between 10 and 60 seconds (to set this duration please read: Backlight on page 8). Please note: In certain circumstances, not every function of your original remote control may be directly available on the universal remote control. Especially for newer devices, it might be possible that the functions are stored to different keys than expected or may not even be available at all. In these cases you can use the learn function to transfer the functions of your original remote control to the desired keys of the universal remote control (see Learn function on page 22).

SHIFT function

After you program a device code, the universal remote control keys can have double functions (with the exception of the S_(Setup) and MACRO keys). To use the second function, briefly press the Setup key and then (within 15-20 seconds) press one of the secondary function or number keys. Try out which additional functions a key has for a particular device code.

Recordings

The (Record) key for recording (e.g. on video recorder, DVD, or cassette recorder) must be pressed twice. This acts as a protection from accidental recordings.
EPG Electronic Programme Guide
The EPG ("Electronic Programme Guide") key has various functions depending on which code has been used: For TV and satellite codes (e.g. SAT-TV or DVB-T), the button opens the electronic programme guide. For DVD codes the button opens the title menu. For VCR codes you can use the button for programming, if your video recorder has a Showview function. If the device has both an EPG and a Showview function, the EPG function is given priority.
Operating combined devices
Combined devices are for example a TV set with an integrated video recorder, a TV set with a DVD player or a DVD recorder with a video recorder. Several controlling options are available to combined devices. Combined devices with two device codes Some combined devices (e.g. TV set with video recorder) require two device codes - one for each device part. Program the correct TV code on the TV mode key and the video recorder code on the other mode key. The combined device is then controlled like two separate devices. Combined devices with one device code Other combined devices only require one code. In this case, you must first select the device part you would like to operate. Example: The device is a combined DVD recorder/video recorder. The device code was stored on the DVD mode key. Now activate the DVD part in the combined device by holding down the DVD mode key for longer than one second. To activate the video recorder in the combined device, first briefly press the Setup key for the SHIFT function, then the DVD mode key. If your combined unit only requires one code but you would like to operate it with two mode keys, then proceed as follows: Programme the device code to two mode keys. Operate one of the unit parts with one of the two mode keys. Use the learn function (see Learn function on page 22) to transfer the desired functions of the other unit part to the other mode key.

You can manually save the functions of an original remote control to your universal remote control. Commands are saved to the mode key on which the device of the original remote control was programmed. The universal remote control can learn up to 150 commands.

Notes on learn function

Use new batteries for both remote controls. If you start programming from the start especially after the first operation delete all saved commands first of all (see Deleting commands for all mode keys on page 24). Only one original remote control can be programmed on each mode key. If you would like to program an original remote control to a mode key, first delete the commands on this mode key (see Deleting commands for only one mode key on page 24). The LEARN ERROR message is displayed if the memory is full. If this happens, delete saved commands. Programming each key can take approx. 3 seconds. Do not release the key to be learned before the SUCCESS or LEARN ERROR message appears. The following keys cannot be assigned to functions: Setup, MACRO and all mode keys. Some original remote controls (for DVD, video recorder, SAT) can themselves be programmed with the device codes of some TV brands to carry out basic TV set functions (volume, mute, channel search). Do not attempt to transfer the functions of an original remote control that has been programmed with the code of a different TV set to your universal remote control. This could cause programming errors. First try to program two or three commands and then test them. Before programming in your commands, first delete all existing commands (see Deleting commands for all mode keys on page 24). Do not execute the learn function under a low-energy lamp. Such lamps (e.g. fluorescent lamps) can contain infrared light components that could influence the learn function.

Program commands

To programme, proceed as follows: 1. Place the remote controls with the infrared diodes facing each other spaced 15 to 50 mm apart on the table. The infrared diodes must be pointing directly at each other.
2. Keep the Setup key pressed for approx. 3 seconds until CODE SETUP appears. 3. Press Setup briefly three more times to open the LEARN SETUP menu. 4. Press OK to open the learn mode. 5. Confirm once again with OK. 6. Now select the mode key on which the device of the original remote control was programmed. 7. The LEARN KEY prompt appears. Now select the key on the universal remote control that is to be assigned to the original remote control function (not: Setup or MACRO). 8. In the display you now see LEARNING. Now select the key on the universal remote control whose function should be assigned to the universal remote control. Keep this key pressed until either the SUCCESS or LEARN ERROR message appears.
9. The following query appears: LEARN MORE?. If you want to perform additional learn functions, confirm with OK. The LEARN KEY prompt appears again. Proceed as described in point 7. If you want to end the learn function, press EXIT. The remote control returns to normal operation.

Delete commands

Deleting commands for only one mode key Open the learn mode as described in the previous section, steps 2 to 4. Proceed as follows: 5. Use the arrows to select the delete mode and press OK.
6. Now select the mode key whose commands are to be deleted. 7. Confirm the additional CONFIRM CLEAR prompt by pressing OK. If this message does not appear then the mode key does not have any commands associated with it. 8. PLEASE WAIT appears again in the display, followed by the confirmation message SUCCESS. The remote control returns to normal operation.
Deleting commands for all mode keys Open the learn mode as described in the section above, steps 2 to 4. Proceed as follows: 5. Use the arrows CLEAR mode. (press twice) to select the ALL LEARN
6. Press OK" The CONFIRM CLEAR prompt appears. 7. Confirm once again with OK. PLEASE WAIT appears again in the display, followed by the confirmation message SUCCESS. The remote control returns to normal operation.
Using a macro, you can save a chain of commands, meaning that several functions can be executed consecutively. You can program three macros and store them on the number keys 1, 2 and 3. These three number keys have the additional labels TV, VCR, DVD, so that you can assign macros accordingly. Each macro can include up to ten key commands. A macro can include different devices. In this way you could, for example, switch on the TV set, the desired channel, the video recorder and the recording function by simply pressing the MACRO key and the selected number key 1, 2 or 3. The Setup and MACRO keys cannot be used for a macro. If you would like to interrupt macro programming prematurely, press Setup. In this case, the macro is not saved.

Programming macros

1. Keep the Setup key pressed for approx. 3 seconds, until CODE SETUP appears. 2. Press Setup briefly four more times to open the MACRO SETUP menu. 3. Press OK to open the MACRO SET mode. 4. Confirm once again with OK. 5. Now select the number key 1, 2 or 3 where the macro is to be saved. 6. The query MACRO 1 MODE? appears. (The number corresponds to the previously selected number key.) Press a mode key for the device where the command is to start. 7. The input query MACRO 1 KEY? appears with the step number (02 for the second step). Now carry out the function that you would like to save as a macro. You can press up to 9 other keys and you can also change devices via the mode keys. 8. When the series of steps is finished, press the MACRO key to save the macro. The macro is saved automatically after step 10. 9. The SUCCESS confirmation message appears.
Incorporating delays It can be useful to incorporate a time delay before a command step in order to take the warm-up phase of the TV set into consideration, for example. The standard delay between the infrared signals is equal to half a second. 1. While entering the steps (see Point 7 above) press the PAUSE key at the point where the time delay should be incorporated. The DELAY TIME? query appears. 2. Press a number key corresponding to the seconds by which you would like to delay (e.g. 3 for a 3-second delay). The maximum delay is 9 seconds.

Executing macros

1. To execute a macro, briefly press the MACRO key once in normal mode. The following message appears: MACRO KEY?. 2. Then press the number key where the macro was saved within 20 seconds (1, 2 or 3). While the macro is running, MACRO 1 (or 2 or 3) appears along with the transmission symbol. If no macro is saved under the selected numberkey, the message MACRO 1 VOID appears.

Deleting macros

Perform steps 1 to 3 as described in section Programming macros on page 25. The MACRO SET display appears. 4. Use the arrows to select the MACRO CLEAR mode.
5. Press OK" The following message appears: MACRO KEY?. 6. Press the number key where the macro is stored for the macro that you would like to delete. 7. The CONFIRM CLEAR prompt appears. 8. Confirm once again with OK. PLEASE WAIT appears again in the display, followed by the confirmation message SUCCESS. The remote control returns to normal operation.

The universal functions (also called Punch Through functions) enable you to carry out certain functions on a different device type than the programmed one. These are the volume, mute and playback functions.

Playback functions

If the remote control is in TV, SAT or cable mode (devices without playback function), the PLAY, STOP, PAUSE, FAST FORWARD/BACK, and in some cases RECORD keys will control a connected video recorder, DVD player or video recorder. The DVD or VCR mode keys do not need to be pressed in advance. The last selected device is activated. This Punch Through control does not work if the programmed TV, SAT or cable code has its own video recorder function (for example in the case of a combined TV-video recorder device).

Volume/mute

Image transmitting devices connected to a TV (e.g. TV, DVD, VCR, SAT, CBL) often do not have their own volume control. When the universal remote control is controlling this type of device and the VOL ) (Mute) keys are pressed, the volume control is transferred to the TV. (Volume) or ( You can modify this basic device setting (cf. both sections below). The volume/mute functions are referred to in the shortened form VOL/MUTE below.
Programming the VOL/MUTE universal functions to another device type You can program the remote control so that the universal functions VOL/MUTEwill control a device type other than the TV set. Of course this device must have a volume control. 1. Keep the Setup key pressed down for approx. 3 seconds, until CODE SETUP appears. 2. Press Setup again briefly to open SYSTEM SETUP.
3. Press OK" The VOL/MUTE SETUP is displayed. 4. Press OK again. The following menu is displayed ALL VOL. SET. All VOL/MUTE commands are programmed on a device type that you select in the next step. 5. Press OK again. The ALL VOL MODE? query appears. 6. Use a mode key to select the device type to which the VOL/MUTE control is to be applied. 7. PLEASE WAIT appears again in the display, followed by the confirmation message SUCCESS. If you selected the wrong device that does not have its own volume control, an error message appears.
Switching off the VOL/MUTE universal function for a specific device You can program the universal remote control in such a way that it will use only that particular devices own VOL/MUTE functions. The "Punch Through" function for this device is therefore switched off. The universal function cannot be switched off for the TV mode. As described in the previous section, if you have selected a different mode for the VOL/MUTE universal function, you will not be able to switch off the universal function for this mode either. 1. Keep the Setup key pressed down for approx. 3 seconds, until CODE SETUP appears. 2. Press Setup again briefly to open SYSTEM SETUP. 3. Press OK" The VOL/MUTE SETUP is displayed. 4. Press OK again. The ALL VOL SET menu is displayed. the MODE VOL. SET menu. Use 5. Use the arrows to select this menu to switch off the VOL/MUTE universal function for an individual device that you can select in the next step. 6. Press OK" The MODE VOL MODE? query appears. 7. Use a mode key to select the device type which should have its own VOL/MUTE control (not: TV). 8. PLEASE WAIT appears in the display, followed by the confirmation message SUCCESS.

Restoring the VOL/MUTE universal function factory settings If you have changed the universal VOL/MUTE functions as described in the previous two sections, you can reset the functions to the factory settings. 1. Keep the Setup key pressed down for approx. 3 seconds, until CODE SETUP appears. 2. Press Setup again briefly to open SYSTEM SETUP. 3. Press OK" The VOL/MUTE SETUP is displayed. 4. Press OK again. The VOL/MUTE ALL menu is displayed. (press twice) to select the VOL/MUTE 5. Use the arrows RESET menu. 6. Press OK" The CONFIRM RESET message is displayed. 7. Confirm with OK to reset the settings. 8. PLEASE WAIT appears again in the display, followed by the confirmation message SUCCESS.

Error recovery

The display remains dark: Check whether the remote control batteries have been correctly inserted and have matching +/ polarity. If the batteries are too weak then replace them with new ones. The remote control does not work: Check whether your devices have been properly connected and are switched on. There are several device codes listed under the brand name of my device. How do I determine the correct device code?
To determine the correct device code for your device, try each consecutive code until most of the functions of the device function properly. The devices only respond to a few remote control commands: Continue testing further codes until the devices respond to the commands accordingly. If none of the code programmings described are successful, it may be, in exceptional cases, that the device is not compatible with your universal remote control.
