Getting Started

Control up to five (5) Components

The FX1 is designed to control up to five different

Audio/Video components and operate virtually all

brands of Audio, TV, DVD, VCR, Cable and Satellite

components.

Component Buttons

Once you have programmed the FX1 for all of your compo-

nents, all you need to do is press a component button and

all the buttons on the FX1 will work with that component.

For example, when you press the TV component button, all

the buttons on your FX1 will operate your TV. If you press

the DVD component button, all the buttons on the FX1 will

operate your DVD.

Each time you press any of the buttons

on the remote, the LED light in the

component button

will light up to

indicate which

component you

are controlling.

Battery Installation

Press the tab and remove the cover

of the battery compartment located

in the back of your remote. Insert the

two AA batteries (included in the

package) making sure to match the

positive (+) and negative (-) symbols

as shown in the diagram. Place the

cover back over

the battery

compartment.

Setting Up Your FX1

There are two ways you can program your remote:

• The Code Entry Method (page 4)

• The Auto-Search Method (page 7)

The Code Entry Method allows you to set up the FX1 using

brand names. It is fast and easy to program. The Auto-Search

Method scans through all the brands in the remote control,

one at a time. It should be used when the Code entry

method does not work.

Code Entry Method

Find the 3 digit code numbers assigned to your brand from the

lists in the back of this manual. The codes are listed by compo-

nent 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.

Once you have located the 3-digit codes for each of the

components that you wish to operate with your FX1, write

them ALL down on a piece of paper. It’s important that you

write down all the codes listed for your brand because only

one code is going to work with your component.

Using your old remote, turn on the component you want to

program—for example, to program your TV turn on your TV set.

Press the Component button (in this case the button that says

TV) and the SELECT (SEL) button at the same time. Hold down

both buttons for 3 seconds until the TV Component button light

turns on.

IMPORTANT: You have 20 seconds to

perform the next step while you are

in programming mode. If you do not

press a button within 20 seconds, the

LED light will turn off. The remote

will exit the programming mode

and you will have to start over.

Point the remote toward the component (in this example

the TV) and punch in the 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. The TV LED light will

blink each time a number is pressed.

If the 3-digit code number you just punched in is the correct

number, the component you are trying to program will turn

off. If it did not turn off, enter the next code number from

your list until it does turn off.

IMPORTANT: If you have tried all the set-up codes in the

list and the component still did not turn off after Step 5,

the Auto-Search Method (page 7) will help you program.

Once you’ve entered the code number and the component has

turned off, press the POWER button on your remote to turn the

component back on.

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 button LED

light will blink three times to confirm that the code was success-

fully stored. Now when you press the TV component button,

all of the buttons will work with your TV.

Now it’s time to test the VOLUME and CHANNEL buttons

(or PLAY and STOP buttons for VCR and DVD) to make sure

they all work. For example, perhaps your Sony TV turned

off with code number 147, but the volume controls did not

work properly. In this case, try the next code number listed

for that component. Repeat Step 5 using the next code

number until you find a perfect match.

Program the remaining components by repeating steps 3

through 7.

IMPORTANT: If the Code Entry Method did not work with

your components, try the Auto-Search Method next as

outlined on page 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.

Using your old remote, turn on the component you want to

program with the FX1... let’s say your TV.

Press down on both the Component button (in this case the but-

ton that says TV) and the SELECT (SEL) button at the same time

for 3 seconds until the TV component button LED light turns on.

Press the UP arrow button once. Each time the UP arrow is

pressed, the code will count up one code number and send a

Power OFF signal. When the correct code is sent out, the com-

ponent will turn off.

IMPORTANT: If you do not press a button within 20

seconds the LED light will turn off. The remote will exit

the programming mode and you will have to start over.

Press the ON button on the FX1 to turn the component back

on. Now you can test the VOLUME and CHANNEL buttons

(or PLAY and STOP buttons for VCR and DVD) to make sure

they all work. If any of the buttons do not work properly, you

need to find a new code. Continue pressing the Up arrow

button until you find a code that turns off the component

makes the VOLUME or PLAY buttons respond correctly.

Once you have found the right code, you must save it by

pressing the component button (in this case TV). The compo-

nent LED light will blink three times to confirm that the code

was successfully stored.

NOTE: Use this method for those components you cannot

program with the Code Entry Method.
