PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE  49

In this case we will select “TV,” and show how
to change it to take on the codes for operating
a VCR. When that device’s name appears,
press the Set Button

F.

4. Once the “old” device type has been selected,

you need to tell the remote which set of
remote codes to use as a replacement for the
device just selected. When the instructions
shown in Figure 36 appear, press the 

⁄¤

E to scroll through

the list of device categories to find the name
of the device that you wish to use. The old
device name will remain on the left side of the
LCD screen, while the replacement device list
will scroll to its right. For example, press the 

⁄

E until the display

screen reads 

TV<-VCR

to have the VID 2/TV

Button transmit the commands used to control
a VCR. Press the Set Button

F when the

desired device combination appears.

5. Once the new device is selected, the remain-

der of the process will select the codes for the
specific brand to be used, and for that reason
they are identical to the way a device is pro-
grammed using manual entry. Continue the
process as outlined in the next few steps,
remembering that if the codes for your specific
device are not found you may select any brand
and then “learn” the proper codes into the
DPR remote using the process outlined on
page 47. To begin the process, start by select-
ing the brand of device, as shown in Figure 19.
Press the 

⁄¤

E

until the brand name of the device you are
programming into the remote appears on the
lower line of the display and then press the
Set Button

F.

6. The next step is important, as it determines

which codes will operate the source device or
display. Point the DPR remote at the device
being programmed and, following the
instructions shown on the remote’s LCD
Information Display

2, press and release

the Numeric Keys

H one at a time, start-

ing with the “1” button. After you press the
“1” Button

H the remote’s LCD screen will

briefly go blank as the code is being transmit-
ted, but you will see the “transmit” icon in the
upper right corner of the display to serve as
confirmation that the remote is sending out
commands.

7. After you press and release the number key,

watch the device being programmed to see
whether it turns off. As shown in the instruc-
tions that will appear on the next menu screen

(Figure 21), press the Set Button

F, and

then skip to Step 9. If the unit does not turn
off, proceed to the next step.

8. If the device being programmed into the DPR

remote does NOT turn off after you have
pressed the “1” key, continue Steps 6 and 7
by pressing the available numeric keys shown
until the device turns off. If the device still
does not turn off after all choices have been
tried, the code for this specific device is not in
the DPR remote library under that brand
name. If that is the case, we suggest that you
press the Set Button

F to accept the

codes from another brand so that the pro-
gramming is completed, but remember that
you will then have to program the remote
manually by following the Learning
Commands instructions on page 47.

9. When the device being programmed does

turn off after a numeric key has been
pressed, you must press the Set Button

F

within five seconds to enter the setting into
the remote’s memory. After you press the Set
button, the top line of the LCD display will
read 

SAVING...

and then the word 

SAVED

will flash four times in the center of the
bottom line.

10. When the codes are saved the remote will

return to normal operation, and whenever you
press the Input Selector Button

4 that

was just programmed, the display will show
the original device type code at the far left
side of the display, with the name of the new
code set type in brackets. For example, the dis-
play will read 

TV<-VCR

in our example of

replacing the TV codes with those for a VCR.

Macros enable you to easily repeat frequently
used combinations of multiple remote control
commands with the touch of a single button.
Once a macro is programmed you may send up
to 20 commands with one press of the Power On
or Macro buttons. This will greatly simplify the
process of turning on your system, changing
devices or other common tasks. Thanks to the
remote’s two-line display, it is easier than ever
for you to take advantage of the power of macro
commands.

Recording a Macro
To record a macro into the remote’s memory,
follow these steps:

1. Press and hold the Program Button

& for

about three seconds while the message shown 
in Figure 15 appears in the remote’s LCD
Information Display

2. Release the

button when the red light under the Set
Button

F appears.

2. The remote’s 

MAIN MENU

message (Figure

16), will appear in the LCD display and the
Set Button

F will remain illuminated in

red. Press the 

⁄

E

three times so that 

MACRO

appears on the

bottom line of the LCD screen, as shown in
Figure 37. Press the Set Button

F to enter

the main macro menu branch.

3. At the next menu screen (Figure 38) press the 

F to begin recording a macro.

4. The next display screen (Figure 39) is where

you select the button that will be used to
recall the macro. The choices are the Power
On Button

3 or one of the discrete Macro

 . Press the 

⁄¤

E until the name of the button

you wish to program the macro into is shown.
For this example we will show how to program
a series of commands that will automatically
be sent out every time the Power button is
pressed.

5. The next screen that appears (Figure 40) is

where you select the device for the first com-
mand that will be sent out as part of the
macro. Press the 

⁄¤

E until the name of the device appears on
the left side of the lower line in the LCD dis-
play. For this example, the first button we want
to have the macro “press” is the Power On
button, so the DPR device is selected. Press
the Set Button

F when the desired device

name appears to move to the next program-
ming step.

6. The next display (Figure 41) is where you

begin entering the individual commands for
the macro, in the order you wish them to be
transmitted. Remember that when you want to
change devices, you must first press the Input
Selector

45 for that button, and then

press the Command or Function key. Since we
want to program a series of events that occur
each time the Power On button is pressed,
press the DPR button. In your specific macro,
this is the first command button.
