You can also change the device type by pressing the key next 
to the device that you are editing the code for. Pressing this key 

repeatedly cycles through all available device types. 

Some Combo devices (e.g., TV/VCR, TV/DVD, DVD/VCR, 
etc.) will require you to set up two different Mode keys to con-
trol both parts of the Combo device. For example, if you have 
a TV/DVD Combo, you might need to set up one code under 
the TV key to control the TV part and a separate code (under 
any other Mode key) to control the DVD part. Other Combo 
devices have one code that will control both parts of the device. 

To set up a combo device, press the HOME key, Setup, More, 
Advanced, and then Device Codes as described on previous 
page.

This feature lets you set up how various keys on the remote 
operate in various modes. For example, you might want the 
Volume Up/Down and Mute keys to ALWAYS operate your 
TV, no matter what mode the remote is in. Or you might want 
the Play, Stop, Pause REW, FF, and Record keys to ALWAYS 
operate your VCR no matter what mode the remote is in.

Press the HOME key, Setup, More, Advanced, then 
Punchthrough.

Then select the device you want to set up 

Punchthrough, e.g., TV.

At this screen you set how you want 
the Volume Up/Down and Mute keys to 
operate when the remote is in TV mode.

Select how you want the Channel Up/
Down keys to operate when the remote is 
in TV mode.

Select how you want the Play, Stop, 
Pause, REW, FF, and Record keys to 
operate when the remote is in TV mode.

For example, here we’ve set the Volume 
and Mute keys to operate the TV in TV 
mode (i.e., Punchthrough Not Set); Chan 
Up/Down to operate the Cable Box; and 
Play, Stop, Pause, etc., to operate the 
DVD Player - even though the remote is 
in TV mode.

Here we’ve set the Volume and Mute to 
operate the TV; and Chan Up/Down to 
operate the Cable Box; - even though 
the remote is in DVD mode. Play, Stop, 
Pause, etc., will operate the DVD (i.e., 
Punchthrough Not Set for Play, etc.).
You need to set up Punchthrough for 
each device you’ve set up in the remote. 
I.e., you need to set up how you want the 
“Volume Up/Down and Mute” “Chan Up/Down” and “Play, 
Stop, Pause REW, FF, and Record” keys to operate for each 
device that you have set up in whatever mode the remote is set 
to. 

Note also that if you want some other keys to operate in a 
different mode from what they normally operate in, you can 
“learn” the key(s). E.g., if you want you TV’s INPUT key to 
still switch the TV’s input when you’re in cable mode, you can 
learn your TV’s INPUT key under cable mode.
