INTRODUCTION

Your Radio Shack 6 in 1 RF Remote Control system

has a remote control and RF command console that

make up a complete home control system, allowingyou

to send commands to most IR (infrared) controlled de-

vices from any room in your home, up to 100 feet away.

You can use it to control your TV, VCR, cable box, and

even lightsand appliances with Plug ’n Power modules

(not supplied).

The 6 in 1 RF Remote Control is preprogrammed. All

you have to dois tell it which TV, VCR,or other compo-

nent’s remote controls you want to replace (byentering

3-digit codes), and it is automatically ready to operate

most of the same functions as the original remotes.

This manual includes a list of 3-digit manufacturer’s

codes for TVs, VCRs, cable converters, compact disc

players, satellites, and other popular remote controlled

devices.

The 6 in 1 RF Remote Control’s features include:

IR (Infrared) and RF (Radio-Frequency) Commands

— let you use the 6 in 1 RF Remote Control system’s

remote control withthe system’s RF command console

to control your IR remote-controlled devices from up to

100 feet away, even through walls.

Reassignable Device Keys — so you can control

more than one of the same type of device.

Fast Search — when you control more than one of the

same type of device, lets you quickly search all pro-

grammed manufacturer’s codes for that type of device

until you find the code for the specific device you want

to use.

Channel Scan — lets you scan through available

channels on your TV, VCR, or cable box, stopping at

each one for about 3 seconds.

keys in the perfect position for easy operation.

Handy Reference Label — provides a convenient

place for you to write down the manufacturer’s codes

for your remote-controlled devices.

Toll Free Support and Telephone Programming —

lets you get expert help for your 6 in 1 RF Remote Con-

trol System by calling 1-800-950-7044. You can even

HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS

When you press a key on the system’s remote control,

it sends a powerful RF signal to the RF command con-

sole, which then sends a corresponding IR signal to IR

remote controlled-devices in the same room as the

command console.

A LOOK AT THE SYSTEM’S

REMOTE CONTROL

Your system’s remote control was designed to include

the functions used most often to operate TV, VCR, ca-

ble converter, CD player, satellite receiver, and audio

equipment. Most of the keys operate the same as those

on your original remote control.

For example, a key on your original remote control la-

beled PWR ON/OFF is equivalent to PWR on the sys-

tem’s remote control.

The system’s remote control also has these special

keys.

Notes:

• The remote control’s red light turns on when you

press a key, and blinks when you enter a function

or manufacturer’s code.

• When you use the remote control’s RECORD key,

you must press it twice. This safety feature helps

prevent you from accidentally recording over

audio or video tapes.

• When you use the system’s remote control to

replace extremely complex remote controls, the

system’s remote control can duplicate the most

commonly used commands of the original remote

controls, but might not be able to duplicate some

of your original remote control’s seldom-used

functions.

trols.

operation, tells the system’s remote

control which device you want to

control.

VCR, or an input toggle switch on a

cable box.

channels on your TV, VCR, and ca-

ble box.

SETTING UP THE SYSTEM

INSTALLING BATTERIES IN THE

REMOTE CONTROL

Your system’s remote control uses four AAA batteries

(not supplied) for power. We recommend alkaline bat-

teries, such as Radio Shack Cat. No. 23-555. Follow

these steps to install the batteries.

1. Press the battery compartment cover tab and lift

off the cover.

2. Install four fresh batteries, as indicated by the

polarity symbols marked in the compartment.

3. Replace the cover.

Notes:

• Do not place objects on top of the remote control

after you install the batteries. This can press down

keys and reduce battery life.

• When the remote control’s range decreases or it

operates erratically, replace the batteries.

• Be sure to have fresh batteries ready to install

before you remove the old batteries. The remote

control’s memory only lasts about a minute with-

out the batteries. If the memory is lost, you must

re-enter the 3-digit manufacturer’s codes for your

remote-controlled devices.

SETTING UP THE REMOTE

CONTROL

1. Refer to “Manufacturers’ Codes” and write down

the codes for your remote-controlled devices on

the provided label.

2. Press the device key for the remote control you

are replacing (CD, VCR, CBL, TV, AUX1, or AUX 2).

3. Press down and hold SET UP until the red indica-

tor blinks twice, then release it and enter the 3-

digit manufacturer’s code

For example, to replace a Panasonic TV’s remote

control (manufacturer’s code 051), press:

TV SET UP 0 5 1

When the indicator blinks twice again, you have

correctly entered the code.

4. Point the system’s remote control at your device

and press PWR. The device should turn on (or off,

if it was on).

5. Repeat Steps 2–4 for additional devices.

If the remote does not operate your device, try other

codes listed in “Manufacturers’ Codes” for your brand

of TV, VCR, cable converter, or other devices.

If your device still does not respond, follow the steps

outlined in “If You Have Problems.”

Note: The punch-through feature is automatically

turned on for the TV’s volume and mute controls. This

means that when you select cable (CBL) and press one

of the volume buttons or the mute button, the remote

actually sends the codes to the television and not the

cable converter. If you want to use your cable convert-

er’s volume and mute controls, disable the punch-

through feature for these buttons. See “Punch-

Through.”

SETTING UP THE SYSTEM’S

RF COMMAND CONSOLE

After you set up the system’s remote control, just plug

the RF command console’s power cord into any stan-

dard AC outlet in the same room as your IR remote

controlled devices (TV,VCR, cable box, and so on) and

fully extend its antenna. Make sure the command con-

sole is pointed at the devices you want to control..
