4The AutomatorSelecting a New DEVICE Changes All Button Commands InstantlyThe Automator can operate ten different devices eventhough it is only one remote control. Let’s try it now!Press the MAIN button, then press the TV Device button.The TITLE changes to TV. Now all of the buttons arededicated to TV functions. If you press the PAGE but-tons, you can see that the TV DEVICE has a total of fivepages. If you go back to the MAIN Menu by pressingthe MAIN button, then select any of the other tenDEVICES, each of which contains five pages total.In the next few pages, you’ll set up the Automator tocontrol all the devices in your home theater system!Light ButtonThe LIGHT button will backlight all the buttons.Pressing it again will turn off the light, or just wait tenseconds (the backlighting automatically shuts itself off).TVDEVICEButtonLIGHTButton
5URC-200Basic Set UpYou can set up your Automator using either the learningor the pre-programmed method. Because all the buttonscan be set up in one quick operation rather than one button at a time, we recommend you start with pre-programmed set up before you do any learning.Pre-Programmed Standard MethodTurn on the component you wish to set up in yourAutomator (TV, VCR, DVD, etc.)Look up the code table shown on pages 33 - 49 andtake note of the three digit codes listed for yourcomponent and brand.Press and hold the MAIN and ENT (Enter) buttonsat the same time for approximately three seconds.The top of the display screen will show “SET UP”.You are in SET UP mode now.Note: You have 30 seconds to perform a step while you are inSET UP mode. If you don’t press a button within that time, theAutomator will time out and return to normal operation.MAINButtonENTButton123
Press the P-PRO button to select thePre-Programmed Code method.The display will show a list of the first five devices.  Move the blinking cursor to the device you wishto program by using the cursor UP or cursorDOWN button shown below, then press SELECT. For Example: If you want to program your TV,make “TV” blink by pressing the cursor up ordown, then press the SELECT button.P-PROButtonPressing the Page Up or Down button will displaya list of the next five devices.FirstFiveDevices6The Automator456UPSELECTDOWN
7URC-200The bottom of the display should now be flashingFROM TABLE. This prompts you to select theCODE TABLE via the Cursor and SELECT buttons. For Example: Let’s pretend you are programming aTV. You would find the the three digit codes forTelevisions in the TV CODE TABLE. So you wouldpress the cursor buttons until “TV” is flashing,then press the SELECT button. This selects the TVCODE TABLE. Now you are ready to test codes!Point the remote control at the component, thenenter the first three digit code number from yournotes using the numbered buttons. Continue toenter codes until the component powers off. For Example: Let’s pretend you have a Sony TV. Youwould find the the three digit codes 070, 139,147,126, 185, 194 and 085 under Sony in the TV CODETABLE. Using the numbered buttons on the Automator,enter the 070 and watch the TV. If it doesn’t turn off,enter 139, then try 147 and so on.Note: If none of the codes turn off the component, youshould try the Scan Method (see page 9).78UPSELECTEnter theCode viatheNumberedButtonsDOWN
When the component turns off, save the codenumber you entered by pressing the SAVE buttonthat appears on the screen. Exit SET UP mode by pressing the MAIN buttontwo times. When the display shows “MAIN”, youare back in normal operating mode. Now it’s timeto test the all the buttons. If some buttons don’twork, try another three digit code to see if it givesbetter operation.For Example: My Sony TV powers off with code139. However after trying 139, not all buttonswork. I repeated steps 1 to 10 trying other codesets and eventually discovered that the 185 codeset operates ALL my buttons.Repeat steps one through ten for each of yourdevices. In most systems, you can finish basicprogramming in just a few minutes and put allyour old remote controls away. Once you have finished all of the devices, you can move on topage 13 to set up your volume punch through.If you can’t find any code that powers off a component, try the Scan method on the nextpage. If you are missing one or two commands,use the learning method on page 10. SAVEButtonCode YouEntered8The Automator10119
9URC-200Pre-Programmed Scan MethodIf none of the codes listed for your brand in the CodeTable powered off your component, you can scan theentire Code Table for a working code set. Often a codeset for another brand will operate a device (somebrands contract manufacture for other brands). Here’show to scan an entire Code Table:Put the Automator in Setup Mode andselect P-PRO, then the Device you’d liketo program, then the Code Table you want to scan.This is described in steps one through eight of theStandard Method on pages five through seven.When you see the P-PRO display shown below(we used TV as an example), use the UP orDOWN buttons instead of entering the three-digitcode. You’ll see the code number on the displaychange as you press the either UP or the DOWNbutton. Each time the number changes, you’vetested another power off command.Watch your component. When it powers off,press the SAVE button to save the code you test-ed. Press the MAIN button twice to return to nor-mal operating mode and test all the buttons. Usethe learning method described on the next pageto correct any problems.1 89toSAVEButtonCode YouTestedUP &DOWNButtons10
10The AutomatorThe Learning MethodThe Automator can learn commands from your oldremote controls one at a time, via this simple process: Line-up the Automator with your old remote con-trol, head-to-head, one or two inches apart.Press and hold the MAIN and ENT (Enter) buttonsat the same time for approximately three seconds.The top of the display screen will show “SET UP”.You are in SET UP mode now.Note: You have 30 seconds to perform a step while you are inSET UP mode. If you don’t press a buton within that time, theAutomator will time out and return to normal operation.Press the LEARN button to select the Learningmethod. The top of the display screen will change to “LEARN”.Press theLEARNButton123
11URC-200The display will show a list of the first five devices. Select the device you’d like to teach a few com-mands to by pressing the Device button directly.Now, navigate to the page you want and press anybutton you want to teach a command to. Note: The only buttons you can’t teach are the PAGE,MAIN and FAV buttons. Once you select a button, the top of the screen willchange from “LEARN” to “READY”.456Selectany oftheDevicesdirectly.Select anybutton you’dlike to teacha commandto by pressingit.
12The AutomatorPress and hold the button on your old remote con-trol until the display changes to “RETRY”.Press and hold the same button on your old remotecontrol once again.Note: DoubleTap learning is exclusive Automator tech-nology bringing you the most reliable operation.Once you have taught the button twice, the displaywill change to either “GOOD” or “FAILED”.If the “GOOD” label appears on top of the displayand “SAVED” flashes on the bottom, you were suc-cessful. Now, you can select another button to teach.If the “FAILED” label appears on top of the displayscreen, try to teach the same button in Automatoronce again by repeating steps six and seven. Continue to teach any commands from any of yourremote controls by repeating steps five, six andseven (to go back to step five, press MAIN once).Once you completed teaching all the buttons youwish, return to normal operation by pressing theMAIN button twice. Test all your new commands, ifany of them don’t work, try learning again usingthese notes:789Move to another room. Plasma TVs, sunlight, halogen orquartz lighting can interfere with the learning process.Although the old remote control seems to work fine,change the batteries to fresh alkaline batteries.Vary the distance between the remote controls gradually. Try 1/4”, 1”, 2”and so on, up to 4 feet.Tap the button on the original remote control instead ofpressing and holding it during the learning process.
13URC-200Punch Through Volume ControlThe one feature that will really make life easy for youand your family is Punch Through. It’s worth setting upright away! In most home entertainment systems, thesound volume is controlled by only one device. Insome systems it is the TV device that controls thesound; in others it would be the AUDIO device (for theA/V surround sound receiver). Now, imagine you are watching a DVD, so theAutomator is set to operate the DVD. If you want tolower the volume you have to press MAIN, then thedevice that controls the sound (TV or AUDIO), then theVolume Down button. After you adjust the volume,you would have to press MAIN, then the DVD devicebutton to get back to your DVD controls! This is very inconvenient. You can fix this very quicklyby using Punch Through.Punch Through Volume Control Set UpEnter Set Up mode by pressing MAIN and ENT,then select PUNCH from page 2 of Set Up. (Useone of the PAGE buttons to get to page 2).The display changes to “PUNCH”. Press VOL toprogram Volume Punch Through.1SelectVolumetoPunchThrough2
14The AutomatorThe bottom of the display flashes ”PUNCH TO”.Press the device button for the device that doesn’thave volume control commands yet (i.e. DVD).This is the device you are going to PUNCH TO forthe volume and mute commands.Note: If you wish to PUNCH to the MAIN device, press thePOWER OFF button at this time.The bottom of the display will then flash “PUNCHFROM”. Now you select the device that has thevolume commands you want. The bottom of thedisplay will flash “SAVED”.Repeat steps one to three until all your devicesoperate the volume perfectly. Press the MAIN but-ton twice to  return to normal operating mode andtest your Punch Through programming.Note: The Punch Through feature is not limited to volumeand can also be applied to channel or other functions. If youfind yourself switching to a particular device frequently to usea group of controls, consider using Punch Through for anoth-er group, as listed here:VOL - Volume Up, Volume Down and MuteCH - Channel Up, Channel Down and Prev.

30The AutomatorExpanding With the ExpanderYou can use the Automator as you would your otherremote controls. It transmits very powerful line-of-sightoutput using infrared light commands (invisible to thenaked eye). Typically, when you use the Automatorline of sight like this, expect a range of between 30 and50 feet when it is pointed at the components. Whenthe remote is not pointed in the general direction of thecomponents, the range will vary (depending on reflec-tive surfaces, lighting, etc.). However, the Automator also sends omnidirectionalradio signals compatible with the  MRF-100 Expanderkit. By purchasing the optional Expander kit, you canoperate your equipment with the Automator 50 to 100feet away (through walls, doors, cabinets, inside oroutside). Since the Expander picks up the Automator'sradio signals from any direction, regardless of dis-tance, you don't have to point the Automator at all.Nothing has to be done to the Automator for this feature to work. Every time you press a button on theAutomator, it sends both a standard infrared AND aradio command. If you install the Expander kit, theMRF-100 will receive the Automator’s radio signalsand translate them into the infrared commands thatcontrol your components.Note: The Automator's radio signals will not control components directly. You must have an Expander to receive the Automator's radio signals. Components that came with "no pointing" radio remote controls cannotbe operated by the Automator unless the component can be switched to standard infrared control via its internalmenus. Some remote control ceiling fans are radio only andcannot be operated by the Automator.
31URC-200The Expander converts radio to standard infraredcommands and sends them out via a built-in frontblaster to components in the same cabinet space.The Automator sendsradio signals to theExpander, which is aradio receiver.Self-adhesive “flashers” (included in theExpander kit) affix to the front panels of yourcomponents. The flashers relay infrared com-mands to components out of sight of theMRF-100 front blaster. The flashers plug intothe MRF-100 rear flasher line output jacks.Each flasher has a 10’ cable to easily reachcomponents on nearby shelves.

33URC-200Pre-Programmed Code TablesThe Automator’s built in library of remote control com-mands is classified by category (TV, VCR, DVD etc.)and by brand (Sony, B & K, Panasonic, etc.). You sim-ply find the correct category, then the brand you own.Often there will be more than one three digit code foryou to try. Just circle the correct row and refer to itwhile programming (step-by-step instructions for usingthree digit codes.

For example, towatch a DVD in most home theaters requires severalremote controls and many button presses (power upthe TV, power up the surround sound, power up theDVD player, set the TV to the correct video input, setthe surround sound to the correct audio input andfinally; press play on the DVD player remote control).Instead of pressing all of those buttons one at a time,the Automator enables you to set up one button thatdoes it all automatically with one press. For more infor-mation on how and why you should set up macro but-tons, watch the DVD tutorial or read pages 19-22.If the batteries run out, will I lose my settings?No. The Automator stores all of your settings in non-volatile FLASH memory. You could remove the batter-ies for months, replace them at your convenience andthe Automator would still remember your settings.Who can I call for more answers?The Universal Remote Control technical support andcustomer service staff are ready to answer any ques-tions you might have.
