Getting Started -
Overview
Control up to 7 Components
The WR7 remote control is designed to
control up to seven different Audio/Video
components and operate virtually all
brands of AUDIO, TV, DVD, VCR/DVR,
CD, SAT/CABLE and AUX (Light, Music
Server, etc.) components.
Activating Component Buttons
Once you have programmed the WR7
for all of your components, all you need
to do is press a component button and
all the buttons on the WR7 will work with
that component. For example, when you
press the TV component button, all the
buttons on your WR7 will operate your
TV. If you press the DVD component but-
ton, all the buttons on the WR7 will oper-
ate your DVD.
Each time you press any of the buttons
on the remote, the LED light in the com-
ponent button will light up to indicate
which component you are controlling.
Learning Capability
The WR7 has the ability to “learn”functions
from the original remote controls of other
manufacturers, even if they are not in the
Pre-programmed database.
TV BUTTON

AUX Function
The AUX (Auxillary) button is designed to
operate a 7th audio/video component that
you may have in your system… such as a
TIVO, a second VCR or DVD, or an addi-
tional audio component.
Light Button
The WR7 features a fully backlit keypad for
ease of use in low light or darkened viewing
conditions. Press the LIGHT button to back-
light all the keypad buttons. Press again to
turn off (or simply wait 10 seconds for auto-
matic shut-off).
Battery Installation
Press the tab and remove the cover of the
battery compartment located in the back of
your remote. Insert the two AA Alkaline bat-
teries (included in the package) making sure
to match the positive (+) and negative (- )
symbols as shown in the diagram. Place the
cover back over the battery compartment.
Low Battery Warning
When the batteries are low and need to be
replaced the component LED will quickly
blink three times when you press the
POWER [ON] button.
Couch Mode
The WR7 is designed to automatically turn
itself off if a button is pressed for more than
30 seconds. This prevents battery power
from being depleted should the remote acci-
dentally slip between the couch cushions.
INSERT BATTERIES
CORRECTLY

Special Advanced
Features
The WR7 also offers the following special
advanced features that can offer you many
time-saving conveniences:
MacroPower™& Other Macro
Buttons
MacroPower is a unique feature that enables
you to turn all your components ON or OFF, all
at the same time, simply with the press of one
button. The WR7 has 13 Macro buttons that
are designed to store up to 20 commands in
each button. Pressing any one of the Macro
buttons will send out the series of commands
that are stored in that button.
“My Favorites”
(Favorite Channels)
This is one of the most desirable features of the
WR7 remote control. Once it’s set up, you can
select one of four favorite channels with the
press of one button – without the need to type
in a channel number. So, whether it’s CNN or
the Food Network, your favorite viewing spot is
just one click away.
SimpleSound™& Other “Punch
Throughs”
SimpleSound Volume Control is a dynamic fea-
ture that gives you total volume control over all
the components in your system, even those that
do not have their own built--in volume control,
such as TIVO, DVD and VCR... saving you the
hassle and inconvenience of constantly needing
to switch between component modes on the
remote. As an example, in order to increase the
volume while watching a DVD, you would typi-
cally have to pick up the TV remote control to
increase the volume. With the WR7, you do
not even have to press the TV component but-
ton. Once you program SimpleSound in your
DVD mode, you will automatically have TV vol-
ume control in DVD mode.
SimpleSound is what is called a “Punch
Through”feature and is not limited to volume
control. It can also be applied to Channel
Control, Transport Control, and OSD Control.

Programming WR7 using
Pre-Programmed Codes
There are three ways you can program your
WR7 using the component brand codes that
are pre-programmed into the remote.
• Quick Set-Up Method
• Three-Digit Code Entry Method
• Auto--Search Method
The Quick Set-Up Method is a unique new fea-
ture that enables the fastest and easiest set-up
by using one-digit codes for up to 10 major
brands for each component. The Three-digit
Code Entry Method allows you to set-up the
WR7 using 3-digit codes for component brand
names. It is also a fast and easy way to pro-
gram the remote. The Auto-Search Method
scans through all the brands in the remote con-
trol, one at a time. It should be used when
either the Quick Set-Up or Three-Digit Code
Entry Methods do not work.
* * *
Quick Set-Up Method
STEP 1: Manually or using your old
remote, turn on the component you want to
program—for example, to program your TV,
turn on your TV set.
STEP 2: Point the WR7 toward the compo-
nent that you want to program (in this case
the TV set) and press and hold the compo-
nent button (in this case the TV button).
While holding down the compo-
nent button, begin to press numeric
keys, one number at a time, starting from 1,
continuing to 2, 3…0 until the component
(in this case the TV) turns off.

Page 10
STEP 3: Release the component button to
save the code. The component LED light will
blink three times to confirm that the code has
been stored.
Repeat the above steps for other components.
