Universal RemoteThe following instructions apply only to remote-control units distributed with Comporium digital cable converters. Please use a search engine or code websites for other remote-control units.

With Digital Cable you will receive a Free Universal remote which will help you eliminate multiple remotes by allowing you to operate the Digital Converter, TV, VCR or DVD and an Audio unit such as a stereo or surround sound system.

  • First, make sure the batteries are installed in the remote control.

Your free Universal remote is already programmed to operate the Digital converter, so let's program it to control your TV.

  • Turn your TV on at the set.
  • Press the TV and Select buttons together on your remote until the TV button illuminates and stays lit.
  • Aim the remote control at your TV set and press and hold the channel up button until TV turns off.
  • Release the channel up button once the TV turns off.
  • Press the Mute button.

    If TV turns on, press TV to lock in the code.

    If TV doesn't turn on, press Channel down button one press at a time until TV turns on.

    Then press TV button to lock in code.

To program a VCR or DVD:

  • Press the Video button instead of the TV button and press the Audio button for stereos or surround sound systems.

If you forget any of the steps to program your Free Universal Remote control, just flip it over to find these instructions on the back.


GUIDE/INFO BUTTON:

With so many channels to watch, how will you ever know what's on? Well, thanks to the Interactive Program Guide and Channel banner, you can see what's on and what's coming on up to seven days in advance.

Every time you change the channel, the channel banner will show you what channel you're on and what is showing, as well as the time it is showing.

To see what's on other channels or other times, press the Guide button located on your Universal remote.

Using the UP and Down arrow keys located in the center of the remote, you can navigate through the channels to see what's on.

Using the right arrow button, you can begin looking in advance to see what's on. This feature gives you the ability to go up to seven days in advance. When looking past two days on the guide, you will lose picture and sound of the current program for approximately 10-15 seconds as data is received for future days.

At any time you see a show that interests you, scroll over it, then press INFO. The guide grid will swipe away and the info screen will tell you what the show or movie is about and who stars in it. To exit, press Guide or Exit.
