Programming your remote | Lifestyle® V10 home cinema system
Use the remote code lookup tool to find a compatible code for the device.
The Remote Code Lookup allows for users to search for a compatible device code based on the device type, brand and model number entered. Use this tool to lookup compatible device codes only.
To program your remote:
- On the remote control, press the System button
- Scroll right to select Remote Control, the press the Enter button
- Scroll down to select TV Control, then press the Enter button
- Scroll up or down to select the source used to change TV channels, then press the Enter button. (For example, if you have a cable box connected to CBL-SAT on the system console, select CBL-SAT)
- Scroll up to select TV Brand, then press the Enter button.
- Scroll to select the TV brand, then press the Enter button
- Scroll down to select TV Code, then press the Enter button
- Test the remote:
- If it controls your device, press the Enter button to finish
- If it does not control your device or has limited functionality, repeat these steps with the next code for the brand.
Tip: Your system console controls other devices, not your remote. If you have difficultly controlling a device, connect an IR emitter. A maximum of five emitters can be used with your system (the original emitter plus up to four chained accessory emitters).
- Plug in the emitter to the IR Emitter jack on the system console
- Place the flat side of the IR emitter on or near the remote sensor of the device(s) to be controlled.
Tip: The remote sensor on the device is often a small translucent plastic on the front of the device.
