GETTING STARTED

Overview & Battery Installation

Getting Started-Overview

This is what MASTERCONTROL™ RF10 is all about!

The RF10 is designed to operate up to 8 different

Audio/Video Components and is pre-programmed to

operate virtually all brands of TV, VCR, DVD and CD

Players, Cable Set Top Boxes, Satellite Receivers, TiVo

and other DVRs, Audio Components, Tape Decks,

Multimedia PCs, XM Radio, Ipod, X-Box, Lighting Controls

and other custom installation products. It also offers an

impressive lineup of special features designed to provide

you with many time-saving conveniences and enhance

your overall entertainment experience. However, we

strongly recommend that you fully complete all of the

Basic Setup steps before proceeding to customize your

RF10 with any of the special advanced features.

Battery Installation

The very first step is to insert

the four AAA batteries that

are included in the package

into the battery compartment

located in the back of the

remote. Just press the tab

and lift off the cover. Please

be sure to insert the batteries

correctly as you see in the

diagram. Remember, there

is a positive and negative

end to each battery and you

can tell by the + (positive) and

– (negative) symbols. Once

the batteries are correctly

installed, replace the cover.

Now you’re ready to start!

The SHIFT Button

Press SHIFT to access a second command for each

COMPONENT button. While RF10 is in SHIFT mode, the

display on the LCD screen will blink. The buttons labeled

with white text on the case, indicate just some of the sec-

ondary commands available when you are in SHIFT mode.

Note: If you don’t press a button within 10 seconds, the RF10 will exit SHIFT

mode and return to normal operation.

NOTE: The AUDIO COMPONENT has a unique SHIFT functionality. It can

send input commands to you’re A/V Surround Sound receiver by pressing

the COMPONENT buttons after SHIFT is selected.

The LIGHT Button

The fully backlit keypad makes the RF10 easy to use in

the dark or dim lighting conditions. Simply press the

LIGHT button to backlight all the keypad buttons and

LCD screen. To turn off the backlight, press the LIGHT

button again, or just wait ten seconds (the backlight

automatically shuts itself off). Lights out!

Try it out!

Activating Component Commands –

Simple, Easy, Intuitive

Once you’ve programmed RF10 for your Components, all

you have to do to operate a specific Component is press

the desired COMPONENT button. For example, press the

TV COMPONENT Button. The top of the screen changes

to TV. Now all of the buttons on the RF10 will work your

TV. To operate another Component, simply press one of

the other eight COMPONENT buttons.

Basic Setup - Overview

There are three ways to program the RF10:

> The Pre-Programmed Code Method

> The Pre-Programmed Auto-Search Method

> The Learning Method

The Pre-Programmed Code Method allows you to setup all

the buttons at once, so it’s the fastest and easiest of the

three methods. The Auto-Search Method scans through all

the codes in the RF10, one at a time. The Learning Method

allows you to transfer functions from other remotes (old or

new), one button at a time.

Pre-Programmed Code Method

STEP 1:

The pre-programmed 3-digit

codes are found in the back of

this Manual on page 38. The

codes are listed by Component

category (i.e., TV, VCR, DVD,

etc.), then by brand name. For

instance, if you want to locate

a code for a Sony TV, first

locate the TV category, and

then look for the Sony brand.

Once you have located the

3-digit code (or in some cases,

several code numbers) for the

Component that you want to

operate with your RF10, write

them ALL down on a piece of

note paper. It’s important that

you write down all the codes

because only one code is going

to work for you.

STEP 2:

Now, turn on the Component you

want to program… let’s say your

TV to start. Look up your TV’s

manufacturer setup code from

your reference list.

STEP 3:

Press and hold the

COMPONENT button (in this

case TV) and SELECT button at

the same time for approximately

3 seconds. The LCD screen will

display “SET” signaling that you

are now in Setup mode and

ready to program your TV.

IMPORTANT: You now have 30 seconds to

perform the next step while you are in

SETUP mode. If you don’t press a button

within 30 seconds, SET will disappear

from the screen, signaling that you have

exited setup mode and you will need to

start over.

Pre-Programmed Code Method

BASIC SETUP

Pre-Programmed Code Method

NOTE: If the Component fails to turn off

after you have entered all the code

numbers listed for your brand, you can

use either the Auto-Search Method on

Page 11 or the Learning Method on

Page 13.

STEP 4:

Point the RF10 toward the

Component you want to program,

(in this example, TV), and punch in

the 3-digit code that you wrote

down for that specific Component.

Use the Number buttons 0-9 on the

remote to punch in the code. If the

3-digit code number that you just

punched in is correct, the

Component will turn off. If the

Component does not turn off,

continue entering code numbers

from your list until the Component

turns off. Some brands have

several possible code numbers.

STEP 5:

When the Component turns off,

press the ON button to turn the

Component back on. Now you

can test the Volume and Channel

buttons (for TV), or PLAY and

STOP (for VCR and DVD) to make

sure they all work. If any of the

buttons do not work properly, you

need to find a new correct code.

For example, maybe your Sony TV

turned off with code number 147,

but the volume controls did not

work properly. If this is the case,

try the next code number listed for

that Component until you find a

perfect match.

STEP 6:

Once you have found the right

code, save the code number by

pressing the Component button

you just programmed (in this case

TV) one more time. The LCD

screen will blink “SAVED” two

times, signaling that the code

number has been successfully

saved, and then return to normal

operating mode (in this case TV).

NOW, PROGRAM THE REST OF YOUR

COMPONENTS BY REPEATING STEPS

2 THROUGH 6. IN MOST SYSTEMS,

YOU CAN FINISH BASIC SETUP IN

JUST A FEW MINUTES AND PUT ALL

YOUR OLD REMOTES AWAY.

Learning Method

The RF10 can actually ‘learn’ commands from other remote

controls (old or new), one-button-at-a-time, so it will never

become obsolete. RF10 is the last remote you’ll ever need!

Just follow these simple steps:

STEP 1:

Line-up the RF10 with the other

remote control, head-to-head,

one or two inches apart.

STEP 2:

Press and hold both the desired

Component button (in this case

TV) and the ENT (Enter) button

for approximately 3 seconds.

The display on the LCD screen

will show LEARN, signaling that

you are now in LEARN mode and

ready to ‘teach’ your RF10.

IMPORTANT: You now have 30 seconds to

perform the next step while you are in

SETUP mode. If you don’t press a button

within 30 seconds, SETUP will disappear

from the screen, signaling that you have

exited LEARN mode and you will need to

start over.

STEP 3:

Press any button on the RF10

that you want to teach a com-

mand to. Once you press a but-

ton, the top of the screen display

will change from “LEARN” to

“READY”.

NOTE REGARDING SHIFT

FUNCTIONS: You can teach a

second additional command to a

button by pressing the SHIFT button,

then pressing the button you want

to teach. Additionally, using the

SHIFT button, you may teach

commands to the COMPONENT

buttons themselves at the AUDIO

mode. Simply select the AUDIO

component in STEP 2, press SHIFT,

and then the component buttons

you want to teach.

STEP 4:

Press and hold the button on the

other remote control that you

want to ‘teach’ to the RF10 until

the LCD display on the RF10

changes to either “GOOD” or

“FAIL”. It will then change to

“READY”. If the “GOOD” label

appears on top of the display, you

were successful.

Now, continue to teach the RF10

any other commands from your

other remotes by repeating STEPS

3 and 4 until the RF10 has learned

all the buttons you want.

If the “FAIL” label appears on top

of the display, try ‘teaching’ the

same button to the RF10 once

again by repeating STEPS 3 and 4.

STEP 5:

Once you have completed

teaching all the button

commands to the RF10, save

your work and return to normal

operation by pressing both the

COMPONENT button you

pressed in STEP 2 and the

ENT (Enter) button at the same

time. The remote will respond

by flashing SAVED on the display

twice, then return to normal

operating mode.

NOTE: Test all your new commands.

If any of them don’t work, try the

Learning Method again, following

these suggestions:

• Move to another room. Plasma

TVs, sunlight, halogen or quartz

lighting can interfere with the

learning process.

• Even though the old remote

seems to be working fine, put in

fresh alkaline batteries.

• Gradually vary the distance

between the remote controls.

Try 1”, 2” and so on, up to 4 feet.

• Try tapping the button on your old

remote instead of pressing and

holding it during the learning

process.

Some additional Information

regarding the Learning Process:

• Learned functions override any

existing pre-programmed

functions on the remote control.

• All buttons can be learned except

for the PAGE, MAIN and LIGHT

buttons.

• Learned functions are

automatically erased when a

new function is learned on the

same button.

• Learned functions are retained

even after a different Setup Code

Number is programmed into the

remote.

• To return to an original

pre-programmed function,

a learned function must be erased.

CHILD LOCK FEATURE

This ‘child-lock’ feature prevents the unauthorized use of

the remote control by children. It blocks all operations of

the remote control.

To Activate:

Press the +10 and ENT (Enter) buttons simultaneously for

3 seconds. The LCD will blink “LOCK” three times and then

display “LOCK”.

To Return to Normal Operation:

Press the +10 and ENT (Enter) buttons simultaneously again

for 3 seconds. The LCD will display the last use mode.

Transmitting (Busy Signal) Icon

When a command is being transmitted, an icon will appear

in the far right side of the LCD screen. This indicates that a

signal is being sent.This is particularly useful when setting

up Macros, since it flashes with every step of a sequence

of commands.

After you’ve finished all your basic setup, you can choose

to make operation easier by customizing the RF10 just the

way you want, using the Special Advanced Setup Features

described in this section.

Customizing Component Names on the LCD Screen

You can easily edit or change the name of any of the eight

COMPONENT buttons on the LCD screen. For example, you

can rename AUX to “LIGHTS” or SAT to “DISH”, etc.

Here’s how:

STEP 1:

Press and hold both the

COMPONENT button you want

to rename and the MENU

button at the same time for

approximately 3 seconds, until

the word “EDIT” is displayed on

the LCD screen. This signals

that you are now in EDIT mode.
