Getting Started Overview Control up to 7 Components The WR7 remote control is designed to control up to seven different Audio/Video components and operate virtually all brands of AUDIO, TV, DVD, VCR/DVR, CD, SAT/CABLE and AUX (Light, Music Server, etc.) components. Activating Component Buttons Once you have programmed the WR7 for all of your components, all you need to do is press a component button and all the buttons on the WR7 will work with that component.
AUX Function The AUX (Auxillary) button is designed to operate a 7th audio/video component that you may have in your system… such as a TIVO, a second VCR or DVD, or an additional audio component. Light Button The WR7 features a fully backlit keypad for ease of use in low light or darkened viewing conditions. Press the LIGHT button to backlight all the keypad buttons. Press again to turn off (or simply wait 10 seconds for automatic shut-off).
Special Advanced Features The WR7 also offers the following special advanced features that can offer you many time-saving conveniences: MacroPower™ & Other Macro Buttons MacroPower is a unique feature that enables you to turn all your components ON or OFF, all at the same time, simply with the press of one button. The WR7 has 13 Macro buttons that are designed to store up to 20 commands in each button.
Keypad Layout & Button Functions ON SYSTEM OFF Allows you to turn the selected component on and off. Designed to send Power On/Off commands for up to seven components with one button press. AUD, CD, VCR, AUX, TV, DVD,SAT/CABLE FAVORITE Used to select the component you want to operate and signals remote control activity. Designed to send Power On/Off commands for up to seven components with one button press. INPUT Selects the video source from available components.
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. The Three-digit Code Entry Method allows you to set-up the WR7 using 3-digit codes for component brand names.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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. This signals that you are in programming mode.
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.
Here are some additional facts regarding the Learning process: • Learned functions override any existing preprogrammed 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 button on the old remote will teach
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. Simply program the [AUX] button in the same manner as any other component using either the Quick Set-Up Method, the 3-Digit Code Entry Method, the Auto-Search Method or the Learning Method.
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.
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.
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. The component LED lights will blink once each time you press the POWER [ON] button.
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. STEP 2: Press one of the [MY FAVORITES] buttons and the [MUTE] button at the same time for two seconds until the [CABLE/SAT] component LED turns on.
STEP 3: Using the Number Pad, punch in the Channel number of the Favorite Channel that you want to store in the Macro button. The CABLE/SAT component LED light will blink once for each button pressed. STEP 4: Press the CHANNEL UP [CH ] button to store the commands entered. The [CABLE/SAT] component LED will blink three times to confirm the programming. CHANNEL UP Notes regarding programming multi-commands to Macro buttons: • You can program up to 20 commands on each Macro button.
SimpleSound™ Total System Volume Control SimpleSound is one of the most exciting features of the WR7. It gives you total volume control over ALL the components in your system, even those that do not have built--in volume control, such as TIVO, DVD and VCR. SimpleSound saves you the hassle and inconvenience of constantly switching between component modes just to control volume. First you should identify which device in your system will be used to deliver sound.
STEP 2: Press the VOLUME UP [VOL ] button and then press either the TV or AUDIO component button that you want to use for volume. The Component LED light will blink three times to confirm that it is saved. This sets up three buttons (Volume Up, Volume Down and MUTE) as a group for that component. VOLUME UP Repeat Steps 1-2 for all other components. Note: SimpleSound is what’s technically referred to as a “Punch Through” feature and is not limited to volume control.
Channel Control “Punch Through” This “punch through” enables you to program the WR7 so that either the Cable or TV Channel Controls (CHANNEL UP, DOWN, LAST, CHANNEL NUMBERS 0-9, +10 and ENTER) will also operate in other component modes on the remote control. STEP 1: Press and hold the component button you want to add channel control to, such as [DVD] or [VCR], and the SELECT [SEL] button at the same time for two seconds until the Component LED light turns on.
Transport Control “Punch Through” This “punch through” enables you to program the WR7 so that VCR or DVD Transport Controls (PLAY, STOP, FF, REW, PAUSE, SKIP and RECORD) will also operate in other component modes on the remote control. STEP 1: Press and hold the component button you want to add Transport Control to, such as [CABLE/SAT] or [TV], and the SELECT [SEL] button at the same time for two seconds until the Component LED light turns on.
OSD (On-Screen Display) Control “Punch Through” This “punch through” enables you to program the WR7 so that CBL or DVD OSD Controls (MENU, GUIDE, INFO, EXIT, SEL and 4 Cursor Controls) will also operate in other component modes on the remote control. STEP 1: Press and hold the component button you want to add OSD Control to, such as [TV] or [VCR], and the SELECT [SEL] button at the same time for two seconds until the Component LED light turns on.
Erasing Commands Overview You can erase a single learned command, all learned commands in each component mode, SimpleSound programming, MacroPower commands, or re--set the remote to original factory default settings. Erasing a Single Learned Command from One Component STEP 1: Press the component button where the learned command is stored and the [ENTER] button at the same time for two seconds until the component LED light turns on.
Erasing All Learned Commands from One Component This function allows you to erase all the learned commands from one component. For example, if you want to erase all learned commands on the TV component button because you bought a new TV, the process is very simple. STEP 1: Press the component button where all the learned commands are stored and the [ENTER] button at the same time for two seconds until the component LED turns on.
Erasing MacroPower & Other Macro Commands STEP 1: To erase MacroPower commands on the POWER [ON] or [SYSTEM OFF] button, press and hold either the POWER [ON] or [SYSTEM OFF] button and the [MUTE] button simultaneously for two seconds until the current status component LED turns on. IMPORTANT: If you don’t proceed to the next step within 30 seconds, the LED will turn off and exit set-up mode and you will need to start over. STEP 2: Press the CHANNEL UP [CH ] button to erase and exit Erase mode.
Erasing SimpleSound & Other “Punch Through” Commands STEP 1: Press and hold the Component button you want to erase volume control from, such as DVD or VCR and the SELECT [SEL] button at the same time for two seconds until the Component LED light turns on. ] STEP 2: Press the VOLUME UP [VOL button and the same component button from Step 1. The component LED light will blink three times to confirm the erasure.
Factory Reset You can reset your WR7 remote to the original factory default settings. Press and hold both the [TV] and RECORD [REC] buttons for about five seconds until the [CABLE/SAT] component LED light blinks five times. All programming and set-up codes that you have entered into the remote will be erased and the WR7 will return to the original factory default settings. Warning This procedure will erase all programming and set-up codes that you have entered into the remote.
Pre-Programmed Code Tables The WR7 Pre-Programmed code library is classified by category (Audio, CD, VCR/DVR, etc.). Within each category, the code numbers are listed in rows by brand (Sony, Panasonic, B & K, etc.). Some brands have more than one threedigit code. Circle the correct row and refer to it while you perform setup operations.
