INSTALLING BATTERIES
1. On the back of the Dolphin Remote, remove
the screws that hold the battery cover in place
and lift off the battery cover.
2 Obtain two (2) fully-charged AA alkaline
batteries.
Match the + and – marks on the batteries to
the + and – marks in the battery case, then
insert the new batteries.
3. Press the battery cover back into place, being
careful to align the rubber seal.
4. Replace the screws that hold the cover by
carefully starting each one without tightening it.
Once they are all started, snug up one screw
and then do the same to the screw on the
opposite side of the door. Repeat this in a
crossing pattern until all screws are snug.
Do not overtighten them. This will assure an
adequate water seal around the battery door.
4. Test the unit by pressing any mode key (e.g.,
TV, VCR, CBL/SAT, DVD, CD or RCVR). If the
batteries are inserted correctly, the LED will
blink once.
NOTE:
Whenever batteries need to be replaced, the
Dolphin will blink twice with every key press.
Simply replace the batteries and the remote will
be restored to its full functionality, complete
with your favorite settings.

USING THE
IR/RF COMMAND CENTER
The Dolphin Remote Control (URC-9811) can be
used with an optional IR/RF Command Center
which receives radio-frequency (RF) signals from
the Dolphin, up to 100 feet away*.
Once it is set up, the IR/RF Command Center will
convert the RF signals into Infrared (IR) signals to
control your home theater devices.
NOTE: The Dolphin remote control transmits both an
IR and an RF signal simultaneously. It is your option
whether you want to install the IR/RF Command
Center for extended remote control range.
NOTE: The RF signal transmitted by the Dolphin
remote control only works with the IR/RF
Command Center.
Setting Up The IR/RF Command Center
1. Find a location several feet in front of your
home theater devices (TV, VCR, DVD, RCVR,
etc.). It should provide line-of sight access to
your equipment and a power outlet to plug in
the IR/RF Command Center.
2. Plug in the IR/RF Command Center’s power
cord and raise the telescoping antenna.
3. Position the IR/RF Command Center so the
black IR Lens is aimed at your home theater
devices.
4. To test the IR/RF Command Center, take the
Dolphin into another room in your home.
Select a device key (e.g., TV) and press it once.
Then press POWER once.
The device should turn on. If it does not turn on,
review the steps 1 through 3 and make the
necessary adjustments. Try step 4 again. If you
continue to have a problem, perhaps there is an IR
line-of sight problem. Try adding the IR Signal
Extension Cord. Also review the tips in Optimizing
IR/RF Command Center Reception.
Adding The IR Signal Extension Cord
Included with the IR/RF Command Center is an IR
Signal Extension Cord for use with a home theater
device that is not in direct line-of-sight of the IR/RF
Command Center.
If you are having problems remotely controlling a
home theater device from another room, try
performing the following installation:
1. Plug the 4-foot IR Signal Extension Cord into
the back of the IR/RF Command Center.
2. Run the IR Signal Extension Cord to the device
that is not in line-of-sight of the IR/RF
Command Center.
3. Using the supplied double-sided tape, attach
the IR Signal Extension Cord so that its LED is
over or next to the IR sensor of your home
theater device.
4. Test the installation by again taking the Dolphin
into another room in your home. Select a
device key (e.g., TV) and press it once. Then
press POWER once.
The IR/RF Command Center will convert the RF
signal from the Dolphin into an IR signal and
transmit that signal through the IR Signal Extension
Cord to turn on your device (e.g., TV).
If it does not turn on, try repositioning the LED
until the device can be controlled, then reattach
the LED.
Optimizing IR/RF Command Center
Reception
Here are some adjustment tips for optimizing the
operation of your IR/RF Command Center:
• Aim the Dolphin toward the room where the
IR/RF Command Center is located.
• Do not position the IR/RF Command Center
near metal objects, such as heat ducts. Metal
can block RF signals.
• Make sure the batteries in the Dolphin are fully
charged. Try replacing them if you are not sure
(see Installing Batteries on page 7). Weak
batteries will affect the signal range.
• Make sure that the Dolphin is not being
affected by other RF transmissions (e.g., garage
door openers, cordless telephones, etc.).
*Distance Note for Command Center
Note: The Dolphin Remote will operate the
Command Center at distances up to 100 feet in an
open field. Range will be adversely affected by
metal structures, objects blocking the signal path,
antenna orientation or extension, radio frequency
interference from other sources, or weak batteries
in the Dolphin Remote.

TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM: LED does not blink when you press a key.
SOLUTION: Replace the batteries with two (2) new AA
alkaline batteries (see page 7).
PROBLEM: LED blinks when you press a key, but
home entertainment component does
not respond.
SOLUTION: Make sure you are aiming the Dolphin at
your home entertainment component and
that you are within 15 feet of the
component you are trying to control.
PROBLEM: The Dolphin does not control home
entertainment components or commands
are not performing properly.
SOLUTION: Try all listed codes for the component
brand being set up. Make sure all
components can be operated with an
infrared remote control.
PROBLEM: TV/VCR combo does not respond properly.
SOLUTION: Use the VCR codes for your brand. Some
combo units may require both a TV code

pages 8-15).
PROBLEM: No volume on a second TV.
SOLUTION: Follow instructions in Changing Volume
Lock (see page 28).
PROBLEM: CH+ , CH– , and LAST do not work for
your RCA TV.

original remote control will operate these
functions.
PROBLEM: Changing channels does not work properly.
SOLUTION: If original remote control required
pressing ENTER to change channels, press
ENTER on the Dolphin after entering a
channel number.
PROBLEM: Tried “Search Method” and still could not
find a working code.
