How Do I Program My Remote to Turn on/off my TV and DVR?
Your universal remote control comes preprogrammed to work with your Motorola
set-top box. You can also program it to operate your TV, VCR, DVD player, and other
Audio equipment if you choose.
Step 1.Refer to the instruction manual included with your remote or visit our website to
find the codes for the manufacturer of the equipment you would like to program. We
recommend that you start with your TV.
Step 2.Turn on your TV or other equipment that you want to program.
Step 3. Press the TV button and the OK/SEL button simultaneously for 3 seconds. The
Component LED light will turn on for 30 seconds indicating the remote is ready to be
programmed.
Step 4. Point the remote toward your TV and enter the 3-digit code. If the 3-digit code you
entered is correct, your TV or other equipment you are programming will turn off. If it did not
turn off, continue entering the next code numbers until the component you are programming
turns off.
Step 5.After you've entered the correct code and the component you are programming has
turned off, press the POWER button to turn the component back on. Now it is time to test
the VOLUME and MUTE buttons for the TV to make sure they all work. If any of the
functions do not work as they should, repeat from STEP 3 using the next 3-digit code
number listed for that brand until you find the one that works.
Step 6.Once you have found the correct 3-digit code, save it by pressing the same
COMPONENT button one more time. The Component LED light will blink twice to confirm
the code was successfully stored.
Step 7. Repeat the process for each piece of equipment you want to program.
My remote sometimes stops working my set-top box or TV.
Your remote is pre-programmed to work with your set-top box. However, if it stops
working, simply follow these instructions to re-program.
Try pressing the Component button (CBL or TV, depending on what component
you are trying to “talk” to) first, then press the button for what you are trying to
do (volume, channel, etc.). One of the other Component buttons may have
accidentally been pressed; when this happens, your remote is trying to

Make sure you are within range (about 12-15 feet) and pointing the remote at the
component.
Try fresh batteries. Your remote uses two AA alkaline batteries.
If it still isn’t working, use the following steps to reprogram your remote.
To reprogram your remote to work the set-top box:
On your remote control, press and hold the CBL and OK/SEL button for three seconds,
until the CBL button lights, then release the buttons.
On the keypad, press 0 0 2, then the CBL button, which will blink twice to show that it has
accepted the code. The set-top box should turn off or on. (This procedure must be done
within 20 seconds, or the remote will exit the programming mode.) The remote is now
reprogrammed to your cable set-top box. (This also works on the UR3-SR big-button
remote).
I still can’t get my remote to work my set-top box
Try a factory reset: Press and hold the CBL and REC buttons for five seconds, until the
Component buttons flash three times in sequence. Release the buttons, and the remote
should now control the set-top box. (Note: this will erase any codes that you have
stored in the remote to control your other components, such as TV, DVD, etc.
Whenever I press a button, the AUX, DVD, VCR, TV and CBL buttons flash twice
This is a low-battery indicator. Replace with two AA alkaline batteries.
Why do I need to enter 3-digits when selecting a channel?
By setting your remote to Auto Tune, you will no longer have to enter 3-digits when
selecting a channel.
Steps on Programming Remote To Auto Tune
Using your remote, press the Menu button.
Choose the Main Menu (house icon) by using the left/right arrows on either side of the
OK/SEL button. Highlight the Main Menu icon, then press OK/SEL.
Scroll down in the menu until Setup is highlighted and hit OK/Select.
Make sure Guide Setup is highlighted and click OK/Select.
Scroll down to the third entry in the list, which says Channel entry behavior: No
Auto Tune.
Press your left arrow on the remote and it will change to Auto Tune. Now press
OK/Select.
Click the Exit button to close the Menu
TIP: If you use your remote to control TV, DVD or VCR functions and have more than
one set, label each remote so they don’t get mixed up!
