Getting Started - Overview Before you begin, please insert two AA batteries as labeled on the remote control. Control 6 different Devices Blu-Link™ Universal Remote Control controls up to six different devices. One of the device buttons is reserved for the PlayStation© 3, the other buttons can be programmed to control a TV, VCR, DVD, Cable Box, DVR, Satellite Box or Surround Sound system.
Setting up the Remote for PlayStation© 3 Your remote has a dedicated Bluetooth™ radio that is used to communicate with the PlayStation© 3. In order to control your PS3, the remote must first be registered with your console. Registering Blu-Link™ remote with PS3 Step 1: On Blu-Link, press the PS3™ device button top row of the remote. PS3 on the Step 2: Make sure there is no game or movie in the PS3™. Using your game controller, press the PlayStation© button to turn on your PS3™.
Step 6: On Blu-Link, press and hold the Start and Enter buttons at the same time. The PS3™ device button on the remote should light while holding these buttons. If it does not light, press the PS3™ device button PS3 and try again. After a few seconds the PS3™ should recognize the remote and complete registration. Step 7: After the PS3™ is done registering your remote, press the button on BluLink™ to go back to the control panel. Verify that the remote control is working.
Setting up the Remote for other devices It is recommended that you set up your TV first. Blu-Link™ can control five components in addition to the PlayStation© 3. Blu-Link™ has buttons labeled for TV, DVR, DVD/VCR, Cable/ Satellite, and Audio. While the buttons are labeled for these functions, that is for clarity only. For example, you could program a VCR into any device button other than the PS3™ button.
Note: You have 10 seconds to perform each of these steps. If you do not finish within 10 seconds, the device button light will turn off and setup mode will be exited. You will then need to start over. Step 4: Enter the four-digit code. If it is a valid code, after the 4th digit is entered, any prior device will be removed and it will be set with new code. This removes any “learned” keys as well. If the code is not valid, the device button will flash 4 times.
Notes: Even if all buttons aren’t doing exactly what you want, Blu-Link™ can “learn” buttons from other remotes and can be customized as desired. Step 7: Repeat steps 1-6 for your other devices. Learning and Teaching Set-Up Method You can either start from a blank device and “learn” all the keys or you can start with a four-digit device code and customize it to meet your needs.
Step 2: Enter setup mode by holding the device button down for approximately 3 seconds. After 3 seconds all of the device buttons will blink to confirm that you are in setup mode. Step 3: Press Rec button to enter “learning” mode. Note: You have 20 seconds to perform each of these steps. If you do not finish within 20 seconds, the device button light will turn off and setup mode will be exited. Learned keys will be retained but to learn additional keys you will need to reenter “learning” mode.
Troubleshooting: To achieve the best results during “learning” mode: • If you are having trouble, move away from any Plasma TV, avoid fluorescent lighting and direct sunlight. • Gradually vary the distance between the two remote controls. • Some original remotes require you to tap the button to learn rather than holding it during learning. • Learning only works on individual keys. Macros cannot be learned.
Forgetting Learned Keys Step 1: Enter setup mode by holding the device button down for 3 seconds. After 3 seconds all of the device buttons will blink to confirm that you are in setup mode. Step 2: Enter “forget” mode by pressing the Stop button. The device button will blink once to indicate it is ready to forget the keys it learned. Step 3: Press the key you wish to forget.
Forgetting a Device Step 1: Enter setup mode by holding the device button down for 3 seconds. After 3 seconds all of the device buttons will blink to confirm that you are in setup mode. Step 2: Enter the code 9999 to erase the prior four-digit code and any learned keys for the device. Note: Pressing any key besides “9” during this mode will exit. Forgetting all Devices Step 1: Enter factory-reset mode by holding down two device buttons for 3 seconds.
Controlling Volume (Punch Through) In a fairly typical setup with a TV, PS3™ and Cable box, there is only one device that controls the sound. It would be difficult to switch devices between Cable and TV every time you want to change the volume. By default, Blu-Link™ is set so that regardless of what device you are using, when you change the volume, it is sent to the TV. This is called “punch through.
Volume Punch Through is completely customizable. For example, if you have a surround sound system, you may want volume commands to be sent there instead of the TV. To do this, you would set the surround sound system as the sound master. Setting Sound Master The sound master can be set for any device that supports volume up and volume down. To change from the default TV as master to another device: Step 1: Enter setup mode by holding the device button you wish to make master down for 3 seconds.
Step 2: Press the Mute key and this device will now be the sound master. Future volume up, down, and mute operations for devices with punch through on will now control this device. Advanced Configuration If you wish to independently control the volume without using punch through, punch through can be turned off (and back on) for any device.
Step 2: Press the volume down (Vol -) key and that device will no longer punch through volume controls to the sound master Turning on Punch Through for a Device If you accidentally turned punch through off for a device, it is simple to re-enable it. Step 1: To turn punch through back on for a device, enter setup mode by holding the device button down for 3 seconds. After 3 seconds all of the device buttons will blink to confirm that you are in setup mode.

Power: Sony does not offer a dedicated power off button on their controller. The Power button on Blu-Link™ simulates the menu sequence used to manually shut down the PS3™. L1-L3 and R1-R3: These little used keys are not included on Blu-Link™.
