RCA Universal Remote Control Programming Codes
Programming Your Universal Remote.
The remote may already be set up to operate your brand of TV, VCR, or Cable Box. It is pre-programmed with following codes: TV-000, VCR-000, Cable Box-000, and AUX is programmed with VCR code 037. For brands that require programming, there are two ways to programm: Using Code Lists or Code Search. Use Code Search if the code lists are not available or if the codes from the lists do not operate a device.
Programming a Device using Code Search:
1- Manually turn ON your device (TV, VCR, Cable Box) 2- Press and "HOLD" CODE SEARCH 3- Press and release the device button you want to set up (TV, VCR, Cable Box) However, if you are using AUX for a device, press and release AUX first and then the device button for the type of device to be programmed (TV, VCR, or Cable). The selected device button will flash once. 4- Release CODE SEARCH. 5- Press OFF/ON repeatedly until the device turns off (you may have to press up to 100 times at a rate of once per second). 6- Once the device turns off, press and release ENTER. 7- With the device on, press any other button. If the device responds, no further programming is required. If the device does not respond, repeat steps 1-6.
Programming a device using the Code Lists:
1- Find codes for each device and brand below. 2- Press and "HOLD" CODE SEARCH. 3- Press and release the TV, VCR or Cable button you want to set up. If programming AUX for a device, press and release AUX first and then the device to be programmed (TV, VCR or Cable). When the selected device button flashes proceed to the next step. 4- Enter the three digit code from the TV, VCR or Cable Box code lists. 5- Release CODE SEARCH. 6- With the device on, press another button, for example CHANNEL UP. If the device responds, no further programming is required. If the device does not respond, repeat steps 1-5 using another code number from the lists.

TV/VCR Combinations:
Use TV or VCR codes listed for your brand to operate your TV/VCR combo unit.
Special Notes:
RCA, GE and Proscan Brand Devices:
Many of these devices (TV's and VCR's) will not need to be programmed. In the event that programming is required, the code search method is suggested. NOTE: With these brands, the device button (TV, VCR) will usually turn the units on. The OFF/On button will only turn these decices off.
Scientific Atlanta Cable Boxes:
This brand of cable box can be programmed using code search method by using the Channel Up key rather than OFF/ON during Code Search. NOTE: The device must be turned on prior to beginning the code search. Once the device turns off, press and release ENTER. In most cases this cable box can be turned on and off using the CHANNEL UP key NOT the OFF/ON button. If the unit will not turn on using the CHANNEL UP key, then manually turn it on and only partial compatibility will be achieved.
Jerrold or General Instruments Cable Boxes:
These units can be programmed using the code search method. In some cases, these devices will change channels during the code search. Continue until the unit turns off, then press and release ENTER.
Zenith and Oak Cable Boxes:
Some Zenith and Oak Cable boxes require pressing CHANNEL DOWN rather than ENTER after numeric entry.
Low Battery Warning:
When your batteries are weak, the indicator light will blink, it is time to change batteries.
