HOW TO SET UP
THE URC
ADVANCED OPERATION
Set Up by Searching Through
the Library 1. Switch on your device manually or with your original remote control. 2. Press the Power and Mute keys together until STATUS LED stays on RED(approx. 2 seconds). 3. Press the required DEVICE KEY (eg press TV if you want to set-up a TV) and the DEVICE KEY will light up. For devices 4 - 8, press the SHIFT key [Status LED turns GREEN] and then a Device key [Status key turns RED]. 4. Press the POWER key and hold down for 2 seconds then release for 2 seconds, repeat this process until your device switches off (or switches to STANDBY). 5. When your device switches off press the lit DEVICE KEY once to stop the Library Search. Now try the keys on the remote control. NB: If you accidentally skipped a code that turned your device off, you can go one code back by pressing the Mute key. 6. If the code you find doesn't work correctly, press the DEVICE KEY for 1 second and the DEVICE LED will flash once. Repeat steps 4 to 6 until you find the code that best operates your device. When you reach the end of the library, the STATUS LED will flash twice per second and the set up mode is cancelled. 7. After you have found a suitable code, press the DEVICE KEY 3 times until the DEVICE KEY and STATUS LED go out. The code is then stored. 8. If after you have set-up the WIZARD for your first 4 devices you wish to set-up additional devices follow steps 1-3 then press the SHIFT KEY, the STATUS LED will change to GREEN. You can then set up a SHIFT mode device by following steps 4-7. NOTE: - CTV and other Device Codes can be searched and locked
into "SAT" & "AUX" modes. Just simply press
"SAT" or "AUX" Device Mode key in step 3 and enter
an appropriate Magic Search Code for CTV or other devices. - Each
time you press the "PWR", the URC will skip to the next
code and send out a POWER signal trying to turn off your device. If
you failed to stop pressing "PWR" in time when your device
has been turned off, turn on your device again immediately. Before
the indicator goes off, press "MUTE" on the URC to skip
backward. Repeat the step 5 above and lock in code. - If the indicator
flashes twice after your pressing of "PWR" key, you are
already at the last code of the library. Press the same device mode
key again to resume the URC and repeat carefully the above procedures
to search again. - If the power on/off function of your device is
not infra-red controlled, you need to follow steps 1 to 4 above and
start searching. * Press "PWR" and another important function
key alternately until your device responses to the expected function,
press the same device mode key again to lock in code. e.g. Press "PWR"
& "1" alternately, or; Press "PWR" & "PLAY"
alternately until the device turned off. 1. Look up your device brand name in the MANUFACTURER ID CODE to find the correct code for your brand. 2. Switch on your device manually or with your original remote control. 3. Press the Power and Mute keys together until the STATUS LED stays on RED (approx. 2 seconds). 4. Press the required DEVICE KEY (eg press TV if you want to set-up a TV) and the DEVICE KEY will light up. For devices 4 - 8, press the SHIFT key [Status LED turns GREEN] and then a Device key [Status key turns RED].
NB: When setting up by Manufacturer ID Code, you can set the TV/VCR/SAT/AUX DEVICE KEYS to work any combination of TVs, VCRs, Cable TVs/Satellite receivers or CD/HiFi. i.e. you could set-up a TV on the VCR key or vice versa. 5. Using the channel no. keys type in the 4 digit MANUFACTURER ID CODE from the code list. 6. Then to set-up a TV press the 1 key. To set-up a VCR press the 2 key. To set-up a SAT press the 3 key. If you are programming any other device, press the 4 key. 7. If the entered code is correct, the STATUS LED will flash once. If the code is wrong, the STATUS LED will flash twice. 8. Press the POWER key and hold down for 2 seconds then release for 2 seconds, repeat this process until your device switches off (or switches to STANDBY). NB: If you accidentally skipped a code which turned your device off, you can go one code back by pressing the Mute key. 9. Press the lit DEVICE KEY once. 10. Press the POWER key to turn your device back on and now try other function keys on your WIZARD. 11. If not all of the keys function correctly, press the lit DEVICE KEY for 1 second, the DEVICE KEY will flash once. Repeat from step 8 until you achieve a satisfactory range of functions on the WIZARD. If you reach the end of your "device manufacturer library" without finding a suitable code, the DEVICE KEY will flash twice per second and the set-up mode switches to the Library Search mode. 12. After you have found a suitable code, press the DEVICE KEY 3 times until the DEVICE KEY and STATUS LED go out. The code is then stored. 13. If after you have set-up the WIZARD for your first 4 devices you wish to set-up additional devices follow steps 1-3 then press the SHIFT KEY, the STATUS LED will change to GREEN. You can then set up a SHIFT Mode device by following steps 4-12. To set-up by learning codes you will need a fully functional original remote control. Please note that the WIZARD can only learn infrared commands. It is not compatible with UHF and Ultrasonic remote controls. There are also a number of infrared remote controls that use encoding methods which the WIZARD cannot learn. 1. Press the Power and Mute keys together until Status LED stays on. 3. Press the required DEVICE KEY (eg press TV if you want to set-up a TV) and the DEVICE KEY will light up. For devices 4 - 8, press the SHIFT key [Status LED turns GREEN] and then a Device key [Status key turns RED].
4. Type in the correct LEARNING CODE from the table below to activate the Learning function. The STATUS LED flashes once, showing that it is now in learning mode. Learning Codes TV: 55551 (SHIFT TV: 55555) VCR: 55552 (SHIFT VCR: 55556) SAT/CATV: 55553 (SHIFT SAT/CATV: 55557) AUX: 55554 (SHIFT AUX: 55558) 5. Align the sensor of your original remote control with the bottom end of the WIZARD approximately 3 to 5 cm apart. 6. Choose a function key on the WIZARD which you want to use to duplicate/store the function from the original remote, press and release. 7. Press and hold down the selected function key on the original remote. The STATUS LED on the WIZARD will flash continuously to indicate that the code is being copied. When the WIZARD has finishing copying the code the STATUS LED will then flash once to indicate that the code has been learnt. You can now release the selected function key on your original remote. If the STATUS LED flashes twice, an error has occurred in the learning process. Repeat the learning process from step 6 onwards. See "Learning Errors" section if problems persist. 8. To program the next function key operating the same device repeat steps 6-8 9. When you have finished programming the various keys on your WIZARD, press the DEVICE KEY. The STATUS LED and DEVICE KEY will go off and your codes will now be stored. NB: In the LEARNING mode, if no key is pressed for over 10 seconds, LEARNING mode ends automatically. Trouble Shooting Learning Errors When the STATUS LED flashes twice at the end of the learning process an error has occurred. Repeat the learning process from the beginning of the learning set-up section. If the error persists it may be for one of the following reasons: 1. Alignment of the two remotes is not correct 2. You may be holding down the key of the original remote control for too long. Try pressing the key for a shorter period of time (about 1 second). 3. The WIZARD may not be able to duplicate the signals from your remote if it operates on unusual frequencies. If during the learning process the STATUS LED flashes continuously for longer than 35 seconds remove a battery and wait a minute before replacing. This will re-boot the WIZARD much like a computer. 4. If an
error occurs every time you try to use the learning process, the memory

SAT/CTV-77773, 4. Record your Macro by selecting the functions you wish to carry out when Macro is selected. Make sure each function performs correctly when entered. eg: To switch on your SAT and TV, and put the A/V on TV, press SAT; POWER; TV; POWER(or a number key if your TV only switches on via the number keypad); A/V. NB: Each Macro can only execute a maximum of 6 commands at a time. 5. Press the Macro key to store the macro. The DEVICE KEY will go out and the macro is programmed. 6. To play back the Macro of a particular device, press the device key and then the Macro key. NB: Since each Device key can have its own macro sequence, you can choose to have as many as 8 different macros programmed. Code Recall function The Code Recall function allows you to directly program into the WIZARD the exact code for your make and model of device. This is especially useful if your WIZARD accidentally looses your stored codes. You are advised to write down the recalled codes. 1. Press Power and Mute key together until STATUS LED comes on (approx. 2 seconds). If you wish to recall the code for a device stored in SHIFT mode press the SHIFT KEY now. 2. Press required DEVICE KEY. and the DEVICE KEY will light up. 3 Press 8888 plus an additional 1 to 8 for your particular device. Example: 88881 for TV, 88885 for SHIFT & TV. 4. For the first digit of your code, press 1 and count the number of times the STATUS LED flashes on the WIZARD. If the LED does not light up the digit is zero (duration between flashes is 1 second). To find the 2nd digit of your code press 2, for the 3rd digit press 3 ,for the 4th digit press 4 and for the fifth digit press 5 each time count the number of times the LED flashes. 5. Press the lit DEVICE KEY to exit Code Recall mode. The DEVICE LED will turn off.
