Remote Control Setup and Operation
The Model 950 remote control is preprogrammed to operate over 1,000 audio 
and video components. Programming is accomplished by simply punching 
in a three digit code number that matches your equipment.
In addition to the Model 950 itself, the remote control can operate up to seven 
other audio and video devices in your home entertainment system. They are 
listed below:
  TVs, Monitors, Video/LCD Projectors
  VCRs, TV/VCR combination units
  Cable boxes, Internet set-top boxes
  Satellite receivers–DSS, PrimeStar, Dish, DBS, C-Band
  Audio receivers, Preamplifiers, Surround processors
  Compact disc players, Multi-Disc changers
  DVD, Laser disc players
  Cassette Tape Players, DAT, MiniDisc, Switchers, Lighting, Home Control 
Devices, and Line Doublers
For the best performance when operating your remote control, please follow 
the guidelines listed below.
  Remember to point the remote control toward the remote control sensor 
on the Model 950, not the TV screen. Place the 950 away from strong light 
such as direct sunlight or fluorescent light , which can prevent proper 
operation of the remote control.
  Using another remote control of a similar type or placing the Model 950 
near equipment which also uses infrared control may cause operational 
interference.
  Do not put objects on the remote control. The buttons of the remote control 
may be pressed by mistake and drain the batteries.
  Make sure any doors, which may cover the front panel of the 950, do 
not have colored glass. Placing the unit behind such doors may prevent 
proper remote control operation.
  If there is any obstacle between the remote control and the remote control 
sensor, the remote control will not operate.
The remote control also has many advanced features that can add ease and 
enjoyment to the operation of your home entertainment system. After becoming 
familiar with the layout of the buttons on the remote (see page 10), follow the 
steps below to customize the remote for your particular setup.
Battery Installation
This remote control uses four AAA 1.5 V batteries (supplied). Please be sure to 
match the batteries with the (+) and (–) markings inside the battery compart-
ment during installation.
To install batteries in the remote control:
1.
  Open the battery cover by pushing the latch toward the top of the 
remote and lifting up
2.  Insert four (4) AAA batteries into the compartment, being careful 
to match the polarity shown on the diagram inside.
3.  Slide the battery cover straight back in (toward the top of the remote) 
and push down until it snaps into place.
Note: Do not mix new and old batteries or different kinds of batter-
ies. To avoid corrosion, remove the batteries if the remote control 
will not be used for one month or more. Remove dead batteries 
immediately to avoid damage from corrosion.
Under normal conditions the life of the batteries supplied is about six 
months, but this may vary depending on usage.
The remote control will retain its programmed memory for up to one year after 
the batteries are removed, and up to ten years after the batteries go “dead”.
Setup Using Preprogrammed Codes
Each of the Source Selection Buttons can be programmed to operate a particular 
audio or video component in your system. The AUD button is used exclusively 
for control of the Model 950. More detailed information can be found in the 
section “Operation.” 
More than one setup code number may work with your device. You should 
test the functions for each of the code numbers that work with your device to 
determine the best one for your particular unit.
Note: Some devices, such as CD players and DVD Decks that do not 
have POWER buttons on their original remote controls, may not shut 
off during programming. For these devices, it may be necessary to first 
store the setup code number and then test functions like PLAY, STOP, 
etc., to determine if the correct number has been selected.
If your system has more than one VCR for example, any available Source button 
can be used to select that device. Use the steps below to program the remaining 
seven source buttons (TV, VCR, SAT, CBL, CD, DVD, and AUX) to program the 
remote control for your devices.
To program using Three Digit Codes:
1.
  Turn on the device you would like the remote control to operate, 
either manually or with its original remote control.
2.  Find the three digit setup code number for your device from the 
tables on pages 41-44.
3.  Press the corresponding Source button and the MUTE button on 
the remote control simultaneously. 
The red LED and the selected Source button will illuminate.
Note: The selected button and LED will remain lit for approxi-
mately 10 seconds to indicate that the remote control is ready to 
be programmed. The following steps must be entered while they 
are lit. If the lights go out, simply press the Source and MUTE but-
ton again to re-enter the setup code.
