7.1 Part 1: Choose your Device and Brand

Select the Settings action icon and click on the TV Control icon.

1. Select the type of device that you will stick your IR Emitter to.

You have the choice of either a VCR (video cassette recorder),

Cable Box , or Satellite Receiver .

2. Select the brand of your device.

3. Click on Tune IR Emitter button.

4. The TV Channels button allows you to give names to each

channel. For example, if channel 6 is CNN where you live, then

you can give channel 6 that name in this screen. Or, if you use the

My Yahoo!

personal calendar to set your recording scheduler,

the AV 500 will allow you to assign a channel number to a station

name given from your scheduled TV programs. (see the chapter

Automated Yahoo!

TV Recording Scheduler for details).

7.2 Part 2: Finding the Right Emitter Codes

This screen allows you to correctly set the codes and parameters to allow the Infrared emitter to correctly control

your tuner (VCR, cable box, or satellite receiver).

1. Tune device code (one code available): Some manufacturers

use only one code for all of their products. The code does not

change from one model to another or from one year to another.

In this case, there will only be one single code available. You can

now test the channel select.

2. Tune device code (multiple codes available): Some makers

of video equipment don’t use the same set of control codes for all

of their products. They have various code sets for various models

and various years. You will have to try each of the codes to ﬁ nd

out which code works with your device. In the example screen, you see the code V009. If this code does not

work when doing the Test: channel select , advance it to the next code and then test to see if that next code

works.

3. Test channel select: When you press the Test channel select button (highlight test channel select and press

ENTER), the AV 500 will send a signal through the pod to the infrared emitter and change the channel on your

tuner (VCR, cable box, or satellite receiver). If the Number of digits parameter is set to three, it will try to select

channel 123. If that parameter is set to 2, it will send the code for channel 12. If your tuner does not change

channels when you click on this test button, try the next code for your device (step 2 above).

4. Test ON/OFF: When you click on the Test On/Off button, the AV 500 will send a signal to the infrared emitter

and turn your device on or off. Click this test button again and your device should change from on to off or off to

on. If pressing this button does not turn your device on or off, try the next code for your device (step 2 above).

If none of the codes work, check that the infrared emitter is stuck directly over the infrared sensor on your tuner

device. Note: In some rare cases the ON/OFF functionality may not work.

5. Tune channel select: These four parameters usually do not need to be set. Keep the default values to start

with. See the table below for an explanation of each.

Parameter Description

Key: -/-- Set this to On if normally, you have to press this same key on your device’s remote control in order to select a channel.

Number of digits Set the number of digits that your device can recognize for a channel. Example: Set to 3 if you need to choose a

channel greater than channel 99.

Key: Enter Set this to On if normally, you have to press the Enter key on your device’s remote control after you enter the channel

number. Example: If you normally press 1, 3, Enter for channel 13, then you would need to set this parameter to On.

Key Delay Change the delay between the emission of each digit of a channel. You may need to adjust this if the AV 500 seems

to send only half the digits of a channel or more digits of a channel. Example: Adjust the key delay and retest channel

select if it sends channel 2 instead of 12 or sends 112 instead of 12.
