The Keypad 

• SET - The SET key is used to set up this remote.
• Power - The POWER key operates the same function as on your original remote control.
• Backlit Device Keys - The TV, DVD/VCR, CBL/SAT (DTC), AUDIO, and AUX keys select the home entertainment device to control. For example, pressing the TV key allows the remote to control the functions of your television, while pressing DVD/VCR lets you operate your VCR or DVD player. During operation of this remote, the red indicator light underneath a device key light up every time a key is pressed to indicate the device mode you're in.
• Number Keys - The number keys work just like those on your original remote, for channel selection or number entry. In AUX mode the number keys may provide source (input) selection. Note: If your original remote has a +10 key, you can access this function using the INPUT key. If your original remote has a +20 key, this function can also be found under the — key.
• INPUT - Depending on which device you're controlling, this key can perform the same function as the INPUT, TV/VCR, TV/DVD, or TV/SAT key on your original remote.
• — (Delimiter) Key - Allows direct access to digital TV subchannels. For example, to tune to channel 20.1, press the 2 and 0 number keys, then the delimiter key (—), and finally the 1 number key. If your original remote uses one/two digit input switching, you can access this function by pressing the — key.
• LAST - In TV, CBL/SAT (DTC), or VCR mode, the LAST key tunes to the previous channel.
• VOL +/– (Volume) Keys - These keys operate in the same way as the keys on your original remote. Note: By default, the VOL +/– keys control TV volume regardless of what mode you're in. To make the VOL keys control volume on other devices, see the “Volume Lock” section below.
• Mute Key - The Mute key operates the same function as on your original remote control.
• CH +/- (Channel) Keys - These keys operate in the same way as the keys on your original remote. Note: By default, the CH +/– keys change channels on the CBL/SAT (DTC) device regardless of what mode you're in. To make the CH keys change channels on other devices, see the “Channel Lock” section below.
