Usage Features:
The SRP3013 offers two primary methods for setting up control over devices:
-
Code Selection:
- Users switch on their device (e.g., TV).
- They press and hold the corresponding device selection button (e.g., TV) for 5 seconds until the red LED illuminates.
- A 5-digit code specific to the device's brand is looked up in the provided code list. The most popular code is listed first.
- The 5-digit code is entered using the digit buttons.
- If the LED turns off, a valid code is saved. If it flashes six times and remains on, the code needs to be re-entered.
- The user then operates the device with the universal remote to confirm correct functionality. If only some buttons work, the next code in the list should be tried.
-
Auto Registration:
- Users switch on their device.
- They press and hold the device selection button (e.g., TV) for 5 seconds until the red LED illuminates.
- The remote is pointed at the device, and the power button (ن) is pressed and released to start searching for the code. The remote sends a different infrared signal every 2 seconds, indicated by a blue flash.
- When the device turns off, the user immediately presses and releases the OK button to save the code. The blue LED indicator will turn off.
- The device is then operated with the universal remote to confirm correct functionality. Auto registration can be reversed by pressing and releasing the power button (ن) again during the process if the OK button was missed.
-
Learning Commands:
- The remote can learn commands directly from an original remote control.
- To initiate learning, the device selection button is held for 5 seconds until the red LED is on, then the learning code
99900 is entered. The red LED flashes once and stays on.
- The universal remote and the original remote are placed 3-5 cm apart, facing each other.
- The desired key on the universal remote is pressed and released. The LED flashes twice and stays on.
- The target key on the original remote is pressed and held for a few seconds.
- If the LED flashes once and stays on, the command is learned successfully. If it flashes six times quickly, there was an error, and the process needs to be repeated.
- Learning mode can be terminated by pressing and holding any key for 3 seconds.
- Each function key can only hold one command; learning a new command overwrites the previous one.
Maintenance Features:
- Battery Replacement: The remote requires batteries (not included). Users are advised to check battery polarity when inserting them to prevent damage. When replacing batteries, all user settings are retained in memory for 5 minutes.
- Clearing Learned Commands:
- To clear all learned codes for a specific device: Hold the device selection button for 5 seconds, then enter
99910. The red LED flashes once and turns off.
- To clear all learned codes for the universal remote control: Hold the device selection button for 5 seconds, then enter
99910. The red LED remains on briefly, flashes twice, and then turns off.
