Programming the BR-350
Set Up forVoyager HomeTerminal
No setup is required. The BR-350 is ready to
run theVoyager HomeTerminal.
If for some reason, theVoyager terminal does
not respond to the BR-350, first try re-entering
the setup code.
1Turn on theVoyager terminal.
2Point the BR-350 away from the termi-
nal.
3Press and hold CBL and SELECT at the
same time, until the indicator light
blinks twice.
4Enter 8 9 1. Indicator light blinks twice.
5Point the BR-350 toward the terminal.
6Press CBL. The terminal should turn
off. The BR-350 will now operate the
Voyager terminal.
Set Up forTV operation

follow Searching the code library instead.
1Turn onTV.
2Point the BR-350 away from theTV.
3Press and hold TV and SELECT at the
same time until the light blinks twice.
4Enter the three-digit code. Indicator
light blinks twice.
5Point the BR-350 toward theTV.
6Press TV.
Did theTV turn off?
Yes: Setup complete. Write down
the three-digit setup code be-
low for future reference.
No: Try setup again starting from
step 2, using the next code
listed for your brand. If you’ve
tried all codes for your brand
without success, use the
method under Searching the
code library.
MyTV setup code is:
Setup forVCR operation
Find theVCR brand and three-digit codes in the
table on the reverse side. If your brand is not
listed, use the method under Searching the
code library.
1Turn yourVCR on. If yourVCR does
not have a POWER key, load a tape
into the VCR and follow step 6a instead

Searching the code library
If none of the listedTV orVCR codes work,
you can enter a code that searches the li-

find out the three-digit setup
code. Write it down so you
can use the direct setup
method in the future.
No: Repeat step 5untilTV turns
off. You may need to do this
up to 50 times to go through
the entire code library.
To search the library ofVCR codes:
Follow the procedure above, but substitute

theVoyager HomeTerminal,TV, and
VCR.
2Press and hold TV and SELECT at
the same time until the light blinks
twice.
3Press 9 9 0. The light blinks twice.
4Press 1, wait 1 second, then count

In each
step, if no blinks occur, the number
is 0 (zero).
5Press 2, pause, and count the
number of blinks. This is the sec-
ond number.
6Press 3, pause, and count the

Helpful hints
Setup
If the BR-350 does not operate theTV orVCR
properly, or if it operates some but not all of
the remote control commands:
1Try all the codes listed for the device.
2Try the search method.
Many devices use similar remote control
codes. While searching the library, you may
lock onto a similar code for which only some
commands work. Start the Searching the code
library method over. Repeat the process until
you find the correct code.
Operation
If the red indicator light does not blink when
you press a key, or if the operation is intermit-
tent:
Replace both batteries with two new AA alka-
line batteries. Replace both batteries at the
same time.
