WR7 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 9 Programming WR7 using Pre-Programmed Codes There are three ways you can program your WR7 using the component brand codes that are pre-programmed into the remote. • Quick Set-Up Method • Three-Digit Code Entry Method • Auto--Search Method The Quick Set-Up Method is a unique new feature that enables the fastest and easiest set-up by using one-digit codes for up to 10 major brands for each component.
WR7 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 10 STEP 3: Release the component button to save the code. The component LED light will blink three times to confirm that the code has been stored. Repeat the above steps for other components.
WR7 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 11 Three-Digit Code Entry Method STEP 1: Find the 3-digit code numbers assigned to your brand from the lists in the back of this manual. The codes are listed by component category (i.e., TV, VCR, DVD, etc.), then by brand name. For instance, if you would like to locate a code for a Sony television, first locate the TV category and then look for the Sony brand.
WR7 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 12 IMPORTANT: You have 30 seconds to perform the next step while you are in programming mode. If you do not press a button within 30 seconds, the component LED light will turn off. The remote will exit the programming mode and you will have to start over. STEP 5: Point the WR7 toward the component (in this example the TV) and punch in the first 3-digit code that you wrote down for that specific component. Use the Number buttons 0~9 on the remote to punch in the code.
WR7 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 13 STEP 7: Once you’ve entered a correct code, you must save it. Press the component button you just programmed (in this case TV) one more time to save the code number. The component LED light will blink three times to confirm that the code was successfully stored. Now when you press the TV component button, all of the buttons will work with your TV. Program the remaining components by repeating steps 3 through 7.
WR7 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 14 Auto-Search Method The Auto-Search Method is a way you can scan through all of the codes in the table to find the right code for your component. STEP 1: Manually or using your old remote, turn on the component you want to program—for example, to program your TV, turn on your TV set. STEP 2: On the WR7, press the Component button that you want to program (in this case the button that says TV) and the SELECT [SEL] button at the same time.
WR7 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 15 STEP 3: Point the WR7 remote control toward the component and press the UP [ ] arrow (or DOWN [ ] arrow) button once. Each time the UP or DOWN arrow button is pressed, the code will count up (or down) one code number and send a Power OFF signal. When the correct code is sent out, the component will turn off. STEP 4: Once you have found the right code number and the component has turned off, press the POWER [ON] button on the WR7 remote to turn the component back on.
WR7 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 16 Programming WR7 using the Learning Method STEP 1: Line up the WR7 to the remote control you want to ‘learn’ from, head--to--head as shown below. Start with both remotes’ IR windows touching (or nearly touching). STEP 2: On the WR7, press the Component button that you want to program (in this case the button that says TV) and the ENTER [ENT] button at the same time. Hold down both buttons for two seconds until the TV Component button light turns on.
WR7 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 17 STEP 4: Press and hold the [MUTE] button on the other remote until the component button LED on the WR7 blinks twice. Now you can continue learning all other buttons from your old remote by pressing the next button on the WR7 and repeating this step. Note: The component LED will blink five times if there was an error in the learning process. In this case, please repeat Steps 3 and 4.
WR7 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 18 Here are some additional facts regarding the Learning process: • Learned functions override any existing pre-programmed functions on the remote control • Learned functions are automatically erased when a new function is learned on the same button • Learned functions are retained even after a different set-up code number is programmed into the remote control • To return to an original pre-programmed function, a learned function must be erased • Rapidly tapping the Volume Up b
WR7 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 19 AUX Function: Programming a 7th Component After you’ve finished programming the WR7 for six primary components and you did not use AUX, you can take advantage of the AUX function to program a 7th component, such as a second TV, DVD, or any other audio/video component that you may have in your system.
WR7 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 20 STEP 2: Press the [INFO] button and count the number of times the Component LED light blinks. This number indicates the first digit of the code. Next it will pause for about one second and begin blinking again to indicate the number of the second digit. Then once again it will pause, then blink, to indicate the number of the third digit. Example: One blink, pause, eight blinks, pause, three blinks indicates code number 183. Note that ten (10) blinks represent the number 0.
WR7 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 21 Programming Special Advanced Features Programming Multi-Commands to Macro Buttons The WR7 has 13 Macro buttons (ON, SYSTEM OFF, 7 Component buttons, and 4 ‘My Favorites’ buttons) that are designed to store up to 20 commands in each button. Pressing any one of the Macro buttons will send out the series of commands that are stored in that particular button. MacroPower™ Total System On/Off MacroPower makes several devices work together by pressing one button.
WR7 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 22 IMPORTANT: You have 30 seconds to perform the next step while you are in programming mode. If you do not press a button within 30 seconds, the component LED light will turn off. The remote will exit the programming mode and you will have to start over. STEP 2: Press the component button you want to turn on and then the POWER [ON] button; repeat for all other components in the order you want them to turn on.
WR7 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 23 Programming ‘My Favorites’ - Favorite Channel Buttons In Cable mode, the four [MY FAVORITES] buttons are also designed to serve as dedicated Favorite Channel buttons. Each button will access one of your favorite channels with just one button press. Here’s how to program Favorite Channels: STEP 1: Press the [CABLE/SAT] button to select the Cable/SAT mode.
WR7 1/13/08 12:18 PM Page 24 STEP 3: Using the Number Pad, punch in the Channel number of the Favorite Channel that you want to store in the Macro button.
