Programming the Remote

32

To program the AVR45RDS remote, follow
these steps:

1. Press and hold the 

b

for the product type you

wish to program (e.g., TV, VCR, etc.) and
the 

button 

i

at the same time

until the 

turns orange and the red LED under

the 

lights.

Both should remain lit.

2. Within 20 seconds, press the button on

the AVR45RDs remote that you wish to
assign a learned command. It is always
a good idea to start with the 

button 

c

, though you may teach the

buttons in any order that you wish. Note
that the orange 

will begin to flash

continuously, and the LED under the

b

will

go out.

3. Point the LED transmitter from the

source remote control towards the front
of the AVR45RDS remote. Press and hold
the button on the source remote to be
learned until the 

lights green. Release

the button on the source remote control,
the status LED will return to a constant
orange color.

4. Verify that the command has been

learned correctly by pressing and
holding the same button on the source
remote control once again. Release the
button on the source remote when the

flashes green twice, and then returns to
a constant orange color. This indicates
that the IR code was programmed from
the source remote to the AVR45RDS

remote successfully. When the status
LED flashes red in step 3 or 4, then the
IR code was not programmed. Try steps
2 through 4 again but hold the source
remote button pressed for some seconds
after the status LED turned green in step
3. If the status LED keeps flashing red in
step 3 or 4, this code cannot be
programmed.

5. Repeat steps 2 through 4 for each button

command that you wish to transfer from
the source remote to the AVR45RDS
remote for this specific source device.

6. When all desired commands have been

taught from the source remote to the
AVR45RDS remote, press and hold the

b

and

the 

button 

i

at the same time

until the 

flashes twice, and then goes out, and

the red LED under the 

turns off. This indicates that

the codes have been saved to the
AVR45RDS remote’s memory.

7. Follow steps 1 through 6 to program the

AVR45 RDS remote for the codes from a
different source remote.

The AVR45RDS remote allows you to edit
the command functions by erasing a
single command within one device, to
erase all commands for a single device, or
to erase all commands that have been
programmed into the memory of the
remote for all devices. Note, that all
preprogrammed commands will never be
erased.

Erasing A Single Learned Command
To erase a single command from those
memorized for a specific device follow
these steps:

1. Press the 

b

for the desired device (e.g., TV, VCR,

etc.) and the 

button 

i

at the

same time until the LED under the

turns red

and the 

turns and remains orange.

2. Press the button on the AVR45RDS

remote for which you wish to have the
code erased. The red LED under the

b

will

go out and the 

will flash orange.

3. Press the 

button 

p

. The

will

flash green twice, and then turn to a
steady orange color. The red LED under
the 

b

will turn back on.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for any other

buttons where you wish to erase the code
that has been programmed.

5. When you are finished erasing any codes

that need to be erased, press and hold
the 

b

and the 

button 

i

at the same

time. The red LED under the 

will turn off and the

will

flash twice and then turn off.
