Learning Commands
On occasions when the KP21R remote control does not contain
the codes for a particular product’s remote in its built-in library, or
when you wish to program a missing or special function into one
button of a device, the KP21R remote’s learning capability allows
you to do that.
There are two options in Learn Code.
LEARN DEVICE: This option allows adding a single IR command
to the KP21R Input Select buttons, for functions such as Play for
a DVD/CD, video recorder, etc. It can also be used to output any
command that may be desirable when selecting a particular source,
such as issuing a screen aspect-ratio command, a video display
command, etc.
LEARN BUTTON: This option allows adding a single IR command
to any button on the KP21R. This is useful when a particular code
is not included in the onboard IR code library or for adding a spe-
cial function for another device when a particular source has been
selected, such as a light scene command when controlling Disc 1.
To teach commands from one product’s remote into the KP21R
remote, follow the steps below:
The process requires that both the device’s original remote and the
KP21R remote be available. Before pressing any buttons on either
remote, place them so that the IR transmitter on the remote from
the device to be programmed is facing the
Infrared Lens on
the KP21R remote. The two remotes should be no more than an
inch apart and there should not be any direct sunlight or other
bright light source near the remotes.
