The Volume and Mute buttons always con-
trol the sound regardless of what screen is
displayed. This is setup by using Copy and
Paste to copy the commands from your TV
or Audio system to the Volume and Mute
buttons on all of your other devices.
The transport buttons (Play, Stop, Skip-, Skip+ ,
FF, REW and Pause) operate when the select-
ed activity requires them (for example, if you
watch CABLE TV with a TiVo type of DVR,
these buttons will control the built-in DVR,
while if you are watching a DVD, these but-
tons will control the DVD player).
The Channel and Previous Channel buttons
will change channels when you have select-
ed an activity like Watch CABLE TV or
Watch SAT TV.
The Number keypad will enter numbers for the
activity you’ve selected. Thus, for watching
Cable TV, you use the number keypad to enter
channel numbers, while when listening to CD,
the number keypad enters track numbers.
