10. After pressing and releasing the “1” Button k,
check to see whether the device has turned back
on. If it has, skip to Step 12. If it does not turn off,
press the
“2” Button k, or the next button in
the numeric sequence if you are repeating the
procedure, as instructed by the LCD screen in
Figure 25.
Figure 25
11. When pressing the “1” button does not turn
the device being programmed back on, repeat
the procedure by trying the remainder of the
Numeric Keys k in sequence, each time
pressing and then releasing the button to see
whether the new device turns back on. When it
does, skip to the next step. However, if you try all
10 numeric keys and find that the unit will not turn
on, you won’t be able to use this method to pro-
gram the device. Press the Clear Button j to
exit the programming process. You’ll need to follow
the Learning Commands instructions below to enter
the codes for this device into the DPR remote.
12. When pressing one of the numeric keys in Step
10 or 11 causes the device being programmed
to turn back on, follow the instructions shown in
Figure 22 and press the
Set Button p within
five seconds of the device turning on. After you
press the Set button, the top line of the LCD dis-
play will read
SAVING… and then the word
SAVED will flash four times in the center of the
bottom line.
13. When the codes are saved, the remote will return
to normal operation, and whenever you press
the
Input Selector Button d that was just
programmed, the codes for the new device will
be used. If no further buttons are pressed, the
remote will revert back to the default setting for
AVR commands.
Learning Commands
On occasions when the DPR remote does not contain
the codes for a particular product’s remote in its built-
in library, or when you wish to program a missing or
special function into one button of a device, the DPR
remote’s learning capability allows you to do that. To
teach commands from one product’s remote into the
DPR remote, follow these steps:
The process requires that both the device’s original
remote and the DPR remote be available. Before
pressing any buttons on either remote, place them so
that the IR transmitter on the remote from the device
to be programmed is facing the
Infrared Lens
j
on the DPR’s remote. The two remotes should be no
more than an inch apart, and there should not be any
direct sunlight or other bright light source near the
remotes.
1. Press and hold the
Program Button y for
about three seconds while the message shown
in Figure 15 appears in the remote’s
LCD
Information Display
c. Release the button
when the red light under the
Set Button p
appears.
2. The remote’s
MAIN MENU message (Figure
16), will appear in the LCD display and the
Set
Button
p will remain illuminated in red. Press
the
⁄
Navigation Button n once so that
LEARN appears on the bottom line of the LCD
screen, as shown in Figure 26. Press the
Set
Button
p to begin the process of learning
commands from another device’s remote into
the DPR remote.
Figure 26
3. The SELECT A DEVICE message will appear
in the LCD display (Figure 17). Press the
⁄
/
¤
Navigation Buttons n to scroll through the list
of device categories and press the
Set Button
p when the device for which you wish to set
the codes appears. For this example, we will
select “TV” to enter the codes needed to operate
your TV.
4. The next menu screen (Figure 27) will prompt you
to select the button, or “key,” on the DPR remote
that you wish to program. Press that button on
the DPR remote.
Figure 27
5. Once you press the button to be programmed on
the DPR remote, press and hold the button on the
remote control for the device to be programmed
within five seconds, as instructed on the next
menu screen (Figure 28).
Figure 28
6. Continue to hold the button on the original remote
until the menu on the DPR remote’s LCD screen
changes. If the code is successfully learned you will
see the display shown in Figure 29. If you see that
menu, proceed to Step 9. If the code is
not success-
fully learned, you will see the display shown in Figure
30. If that menu appears, proceed to Step 8.

Figure 30
7. If the message shown in Figure 26 appears in
the display, press the
Set Button p to try pro-
gramming the button again. When the remote
prompts you to press and hold the key on the
original remote again by showing the display
shown in Figure 28, immediately press the button
on the source remote again. To avoid another
failed attempt, make certain that the windows on
the two remotes are facing one another.
8. Continue to hold the button on the original remote
until the DPR’s display changes again. If the code
was successfully learned, you will see the display
shown in Figure 29. In that case, skip to the next
step. If the
LEARN FAILED display (Figure 30)
appears again you may either try to program the
key again, or press the
⁄
Navigation Buttons
n to stop the process. It is possible that some
remotes may use code sequences or infrared fre-
quencies that are not compatible with the DPR
remote, and those codes cannot be learned.
When the display shown in Figure 31 appears,
press the
Set Button p to exit the Learning
system.
Figure 31
9. When a code has been learned successfully, you
have three options. When the display shown in
Figure 29 is on the LCD screen on the DPR
remote, you may press the
Set Button p to
learn additional codes from the buttons on a
remote into the DPR remote. Follow Steps 4
through 8 as often as needed to complete the
code-learning process.
10. If you wish to change the name that appears in
the LCD display when the button that has just
had a new code learned is pressed, press the
⁄
Navigation Button n so that the display
shown in Figure 32 appears in the LCD display.
At this point you will be taken to a
RENAME
KEY
display. Enter the new name for the key
following the instructions shown in the Renaming
Individual Keys section of this manual on page 41.
If you find it more convenient to rename the but-
tons at a later time, you may do that separately by
following the instructions on page 39.
