Getting Started
Congratulations!
You’ve purchased one of the most advanced and easy to setup control sys-
tems available. The Osiris’s built-in library includes thousands of different
brands and models of remote controls. In most systems, all you have to do
to setup the Osiris is enter which brands and models you own. If you own
a component too new to be in the library, the Osiris uses advanced learn-
ing technology to quickly set each Osiris button, one at at time. Setting up
your Osiris to replace all your existing remote controls can be done in a
few minutes. Basic Setup is described on pages 5 to 13.
The Osiris’s exciting advanced features automate and customize operation
in many ways. You could use Macro Setup to power on all of your compo-
nents and start the show with the press of one button! With the Osiris’s
unique Favorite Channel capability, you can tune in a channel with the
press of one button instead of entering the entire channel number. Any of
the button names on the display can be edited as you like. It is best to
delay any Advanced Setup (described on pages 14 to 36) until after you
finish Basic Setup.
Battery Installation
Remove the battery compartment cover by pressing up the cover lock.
Insert four AAA batteries into the battery compartment as shown in the
diagram.

The Osiris can operate ten different devices even though it is only one
remote control. Let’s try it now! Press the MAIN button, then press the TV
DEVICE button.
The top of the screen changes from MAIN to TV. Now all of the buttons
change their function to operate a TV. Press the page buttons. Watch the
labels of the display buttons change with each press. There are five pages
of display buttons already labeled for TV operation. To operate another
component (e.g., VCR, DVD etc.), press the MAIN button to return to the
MAIN menu. The MAIN menu displays five of your Devices on the
screen. Simply press one of the screen-labeled Device buttons to operate
another device. If you don’t see the device name you want, then use the
PAGE buttons to display the remaining five devices on page 2 of the
MAIN menu.
Light Button
Press the LIGHT button to backlight all the buttons. To turn off the back-
lighting, press the LIGHT button again, or just wait ten seconds (the back-
lighting automatically shuts itself off).

Basic Setup
You can start setting up your Osiris using either the Pre-Programmed
Method or the Learning Method. However, all the buttons of the Osiris are
setup at once with the Pre-Programmed Method, so it is usually faster than
the one-button-at-a-time Learning Method.
Pre-Programmed Method
Power on the A/V component you wish to setup, so that you can test
codes by sending power off commands.
Refer to the pre-programmed code tables on pages 37 - 51 and
write down the code numbers listed for your A/V component. The
code numbers are listed by categories of devices, then by brand.
See page 37 for a category list.
Press and hold both the MAIN and ENT (Enter) buttons for approxi-
mately three seconds. The top of the display will show “SETUP”.
You are in SETUP mode now.
Note: You have 30 seconds to perform a step while you are in SETUP mode. If
you don’t press a button within that time, the Osiris will time out and return to
normal operation.

Press the P-PRO button to select the Pre-Programmed Method.
The display changes so that you can select which Device button to
setup.
In this step you choose the name of the device you’d like to setup.
Use the cursor UP or DOWN buttons to change the flashing name.
When it is correct, press the SELECT button.
For Example: I wanted to setup the TV Device button first, so I pressed the
cursor UP or DOWN until “TV” was flashing in the display.
The bottom of the display will flash “FROM TABLE”.

In this step you verify the type of component you plan to operate
with this device button. If the flashing name is correct, press
SELECT.
If the name flashing in the display is incorrect (for example, you are setting up
AUX to operate a Laser Disc Player), use the UP and DOWN buttons to
change the flashing name to the correct type of component.
Note: Each name that appears in the display may include several types of
components. For example, the DVD category includes DVD players and
Laser Disc Players. See page 37 for a list of component types each Code
Table contains.
Point the Osiris at the component, then enter the first three digit
code number from your notes using the numbered buttons. After
you enter each three digit number, look at the component to see if
it turned off.
Continue to enter code numbers until the component powers off.
For Example: I have a Sony TV. I found the code numbers 070, 139,147,
126, 185, 194 and 085 under Sony in the TV TABLE. Using the numbered
buttons on the Osiris, I entered 070 and looked at the TV. It didn’t turn off,
so I entered 139, then 147 and so on, until I found the code that powered
off the TV.

Note: If a component fails to turn off after you have entered all of the code
numbers listed for your brand, you can scan through the other brands in the
table using the UP and DOWN buttons to change the code number displayed,
then tapping either the Power On or Power Off buttons to see if the compo-
nent powers on or off (there is a chance that your component was actually
manufactured by another brand). However, most of the code tables are so
large it is usually faster to use the Learning Method on Page 9.
When the component turns off, save the code number you entered
by pressing the SAVE button that appears on the screen.
Exit SETUP mode by pressing the MAIN button two times. When
the display shows “MAIN”, you are back in normal operating
mode.
