11. Tips & Tricks about learning IR codes to a remote 
When learning IR codes always test the IR codes directly during the learning process. 
In this way you do not need to learn all the codes over and over again. 
Please try the following steps when the learned IR code fail to work. 
1.  Make sure the original remote you are learning the code from has a fresh set of 
batteries. (preferably Duracell or Energizers) 
2.  Increase/decrease the distance between the two remotes when learning. (original 
and URC) 
Try for example to double the distance, up to 4 feet is possible. 
3.  For ‘normal’ short burst codes, try to ‘tap’ the button instead of press and holding it. 
4.  For ‘Continuous’ codes, try the ‘flicker’ technique – rapidly tap the button while 
learning. (approximately 7x per second or faster.) 
5.  Try the ‘Swoop’ method, Start form 2’ away and then ‘swoop’ the remote towards 
the learning remote. 
6.  Try the ‘Flasher’ method. Hold an opaque object in front of the remote and remove 
it then quickly replace it. 
7.  Try learning the codes to another learning remote first, and then from that remote to 
the required one.
