PROGRAM YOUR
REMOTE
Your new remote control
comes from the factory ready
to control your FiOS TV
service. However, VOL+,
VOL- and MUTE will not work
until you program the remote
with the brand of TV you have.
In addition to your STB and
TV, your remote can also
control two additional devices,
for example, a DVD player and
an audio receiver.
This is called “programming
the remote.
” If you don’t want
to control devices other than
your FiOS TV STB, you do not
need to program the remote.
HOW TO PROGRAM YOUR
REMOTE
We will use the example of
programming your remote to
control a TV. The procedure is
the same for DVD players and
audio receivers.
1. Look up your TV make in
the TV code listing on the
other side of this sheet.
2. Circle the first 4-digit
number displayed for your
mak
e
of TV.
3.
Turn on your TV.
4.
Press and hold the TV key.
5. While holding down the TV
key, press the OK key.
6.
Release both keys. The
Device Keys will blink
twice.
7.
Enter the 4-digit TV code
you circled. The TV key will
blink 3 times.
8. To test to see if this was
the correct code, point the
remote at your TV and
pre
ss Power. If
the TV
turns off, you have
su
ccessfully programm
ed
your remote.
9.
If the TV did not turn off,
repeat all the steps with the
next code in t
he list.
10. For future reference,
underline the code that
worked for you.
Note: If some of the keys on
the remote do not operate
your TV as you would expect,
then you can try the next code
in the list for your brand of TV.
To program the remote to
control a VCR or DVD player,
press and hold the DVD key,
instead of the TV key, in step
4 and 5. To program an audio
receiver, press and hold AUX
instead.
Note: You can assign a DVD
or VCR to the DVD key. Th
e
AUX key is reserved for audio
receivers, amplifiers and VCR.
Note: The remote will exit
programming mode after 20
seconds if no key is pressed.
WHAT IF NONE OF THE
CODES WORKED?
If none of the codes worked,
try the following procedure.
(As before, we will use the
example of a TV. For other
devices use the appropriate
Device Key instead of the TV
key in step 2 and 3.)
1. Turn on your TV.
2.
Press and hold the TV key.
3. While holding down the TV
key, press OK
.
4.
Release both keys. The
Device Keys will blink
twice.
5. Press

6.
Point the remote at the TV.
7. Press

8. Press
. Every time you
press
the remote
sends out a new power-off
command to the TV. Keep
pressing
until the TV
turns off. (You can press
to go back.)
9. When the TV turns off, you
have found th
e right co
de.
Press
OK to store this
code.
Note: There are over 200 TV
and DVD codes. The most
common codes are tried first,
but you may still need to press
over 200 times to find the
right code. If you reach the
end of the list of codes the
entire remote will flash twice
and return to normal
operation. You can exit
programming at any time by
pressing Exit.
SWITCHING MODES
Press a Device Key on top of
the remote to switch modes.
For example, to control your
DVD player, press DVD. To
return to your FiOS TV STB
box, press STB. Pressing the
TV, DVD or AUX key is like
picking up the remote for that
device.
Note: When you press Guide,
Widgets, On Demand,
Favorites, FiOS TV, or DVR
the remote assumes you want
to control the STB and will
automatically switch you to
STB mode.
THE CHANNEL KEYS

VOL+, VOL- and Mute always
control the TV volume even
when you are in STB or DVD

Keys will always control the
AUX device when in AUX
mode.) This is the way most
people will want the remote to
work. However, you can
change how the Volume Keys
work.
If you always want the Volume
Keys to control the AUX device …
Some people may want to

your STB in STB mode.

your STB and TV when you
are in STB mode. (If you have
a DVR STB, the DVR will

programs when off.) However,
you can re-program how the

t
o indicate succes

Power Key to turn on or off
your TV, AUX and STB, in that
order, with one press of
Power, press [STB+OK],

[OK].
If you want the Power Key to
control only one device at a time…
