A QUICK LOOK AT THE ON-Q CONTROLS

PROGRAMMING A DEVICE

NOTE: Device button ONQ can NOT be programmed To program this remote to control home theater devices, follow the steps below.
Before proceeding, find the codes for the devices you want to program in “Manufacturer’s Codes” on the right side of this page and write them down or highlight them.

Turn on the device (for example, a DVD player) and, if needed, load media (for example, a DVD).
Press a device key on the remote that you wish to program ( TV. VCR/DVD, CBL/ SAT , etc.).
Press and hold SETUP until the red LED blinks twice, then release.
Enter the first five-digit code for the device and brand that you wish to program. The LED blinks once as each digit is entered. If the code is valid, the LED blinks twice.
NOTE: If the LED does not blink twice, repeat steps 2 to 4 and try entering the code again.
Aim the remote at the device and press Power Off. The device should turn off. If it does not, repeat steps 3–5, trying each code for your brand until you find one that works. If you cannot find a code that works, see “Searching for Your Code”.
Repeat steps 1 to 5 for the other devices you want to control. For future reference, write down each working device code in the following chart: CBL/SAT Code

CHECKING THE CODES

If you have set up the remote using the procedure in “Searching for Your Code”, you may need to find out which five-digit code is operating your equipment. For example, to find out which code is assigned to your TV:

Press TV once.
Press and hold SETUP until the red LED blinks twice, then release.
Enter 9 9 0 . The LED blinks twice.
To view the code for the first digit, press 1 . Count the LED blinks (for example, three blinks = 3), and write down the number in the appropriate code listing at the top of this column.
NOTE: If a code digit is 0 , the LED does not blink.
Repeat step 4 for the four remaining digits, using 2 for the second digit, 3 for the third digit, 4 for the fourth digit, and 5 for the fifth digit.
To check for other device codes, repeat steps 1—5, substituting the device key the desired mode you would like to check.

USING LEARNING

This universal remote control includes a Learning feature (some models may not include Learning) so you can add functions that are unique to your home entertainment devices (e.g.,VCR Tracking Up or Down). However, there are some considerations.
Learning Precautions

Your original remote controls must be in working order for learning to work properly.
Learned keys are mode-specific, so each one can store a unique function for each mode.
Do not use the following keys for learning: Device Keys, SETUP, or Record (•).
Learning capacity is approximately 42 to 75 keys, depending on the code being learned.
Certain device functions are not learnable including multi-frequency types, some high frequency ones, and other unusual formats.
For optimum learning, avoid high levels of ambient light such as natural sunlight or energy-efficient fluorescent lights.

NOTE: Please have your original remote controls handy before programming learning.
Programming a Learned Key
NOTE: If more than 10 seconds pass between key presses, the remote exits programming.

Place the On-Q remote head-to-head (about 2" apart) from your original remote control. Also locate the key (on your original remote control) that you want the Potenza to learn. Press the mode key you wish to learn keys on.
Press and hold SETUP until the LED blinks twice, then release.
Enter 9 7 5 . The LED blinks twice.
NOTE: If the LED displays one long flash instead, either your batteries are low, or the On-Q remote has a memory fault. In either case, the remote cannot learn a new key.
Press the key on the remote you wish to learn onto. The feedback LED will blink rapidly for three seconds, suggesting the remote is ready to learn.
On the original remote, press and hold the key to be learned. Continue holding the key on the original remote until the On-Q remote’s LED blinks twice.
NOTE: If the LED displays one long blink, a learning error has occurred. Try repeating this step again until a successful capture occurs. If the function is still not captured, press and hold SETUP to exit programming and review the “Learning Precautions” above. If needed, also see “Troubleshooting” below. After review, start programming again at step 1.
Repeat steps 4 through 5 for another key you would like to learn about. Once you have completed learning all keys, press and hold SETUP until the LED blinks twice to save all data learned.

Deleting a Single Learning Key
This process returns the key to its original programming for the mode you select. You can also delete learned programming by teaching a different function to the key (see “Programming a Learned Key”).
NOTE: If more than 10 seconds pass between key presses, the remote exits programming.

Press the mode key that you wish to remove the learned key from.
Press and hold SETUP until the LED blinks twice, then release.
Enter 9 7 6 . The LED blinks twice.
Press the key containing the learned function to be deleted twice. The LED blinks twice and exits from programming.

Deleting All Learned Keys in a Specific Mode
NOTE: If more than 10 seconds pass between key presses, the remote exits programming.

Press and hold SETUP until the LED blinks twice, then release.
Press 9 7 6 . The LED blinks twice.
Press a mode key twice (i.e., TV. VCR/DVD, CBL/ SAT , etc.) to clear all the learned keys for that mode. The LED blinks twice and exits from the programming.

CHANGING VOLUME LOCK

The On-Q universal remote control comes preset to allow independent volume control of each selected device (Global Volume Unlock). However, you may change the Volume Lock setting to Global Volume Lock so that one device's volume will control volume in all other modes. After that, you can perform Individual Volume Unlock on a selected device to set its volume control for independent operation or Global Volume Unlock to remove all volume locking.
Locking Volume Control to One Mode (Global Volume Lock)

Press and hold SETUP until the red LED blinks twice, then release.
Enter 9 9 3 , the LED blinks twice.
Press the mode key for the device you want to control (for example, TV).
The LED blinks twice. Now when you press VOL+ , VOL- , or Mute , the selected device (for example, TV) controls the volume regardless of the current mode.

Unlocking All Volume Control (Restoring Global Unlock)
