NOTE: If the selected mode key emits a long blink, the code is invalid. Repeat steps 2 through 3 and try entering the same code again.
4.
Aim the remote control at the device and press POWER once. The device should turn off. If it does not, repeat steps 2-3, trying each code for your brand until you find one that works. If it still does not work, try searching for the code (see Searching For Your Code on page 20).
NOTE: If the device does not have a POWER key, press the (Play) key.
5.
Repeat steps 1 through 4 for each device you want the the remote control to control. For future reference, write down each working device code in the following boxes: AUD Audio Device ____________________ VCR
TV
CBL

If youve located a TV/VCR setup code that works your TV/VCR Combo and a separate TV code is also listed, youll need to program this code into the remote control to access volume control (see Programming Device Control on page 8). 4. Aim the remote control at your TV/VCR Combo and press POWER once. The device should turn off. If it does not respond, repeat steps 2-3 (starting on the previous page), trying each code listed for your brand until you find one that works. If it still does not work, try searching for the code (see Searching For Your Code on page 20). For future reference, write down each working device code in the boxes below: TV/VCR

Press VCR once, then press AUD once. The VCR key will blink twice. The AUD key is now ready to be programmed for your second VCR. See Programming Device Control on page 8.
To re-assign other device keys, repeat steps 1 to 4 and substitute the key sequence using the following chart: To Re-Assign TV as 2nd VCR key: TV as 2nd Audio key: TV as 2nd Cable key: TV back to TV: VCR as 2nd TV key: VCR as 2nd Audio key: VCR as 2nd Cable key: VCR back to VCR: AUD as 2nd TV key: AUD as 2nd Cable key: AUD back to AUD: Perform Key Sequence SETUP - 9 - 9 - 2 - VCR - TV SETUP - 9 - 9 - 2 - AUD - TV SETUP - 9 - 9 - 2 - CBL - TV SETUP - 9 - 9 - 2 - TV - TV SETUP - 9 - 9 - 2 - TV - VCR SETUP - 9 - 9 - 2 - AUD - VCR SETUP - 9 - 9 - 2 - CBL - VCR SETUP - 9 - 9 - 2 - VCR - VCR SETUP - 9 - 9 - 2 - TV - AUD SETUP - 9 - 9 - 2 - CBL - AUD SETUP - 9 - 9 - 2 - AUD - AUD
Upon completion of a re-assignment, the selected mode key will blink twice to confirm your selection. Then, youll need to program device control (see Programming Device Control on page 8). 25
USING MACROS
With programming,the MACRO key on your Atlas Universal Remote Control can be setup to perform repetitive, timeconsuming operations through the press of a single key. A macro can be used to control a home theater operation, to set a favorite channel, or for other multiple functions you would like to control with one key press (see examples below). Moreover, the MACRO key can hold up to three macros with up to 15 key presses each. The macros are then activated, in the order they were stored, each time you press this key.
NOTE: If three macros are stored, programming a new macro will erase the first original macro. Thereafter, each new macro will overwrite the next original macro.
1.
On the remote control, press and hold SETUP until the last-selected device key blinks twice, then release SETUP. Enter 9 - 9 - 5.
2.
3. 4. 5.
Press MACRO once. Press TV once. Enter the channel number, 7 -1.
NOTE: If you have access to over 100 channels, enter 0-7-1. Moreover, if the original remote control required pressing an Enter key to change the channel, also press the ENTER key after the channel number (e.g., 0-7-1-ENTER).
6.
Press and hold SETUP until the last-selected device key blinks twice, then release SETUP.
Now when you press MACRO, you will instantly see cable channel 71 on your TV set. 26
To Clear A Macro:
1. On the remote control, press and hold SETUP until the last-selected device key blinks twice, then release SETUP. Enter 9 - 9 - 5.

3. 4. 5.
Press VOL once. The selected device key (in step 1) will blink four times. Repeat steps 1 through 3 (of this section) for each device you want volume to be unlocked. Now, after you select a device that has volume unlocked (e.g., CBL), pressing VOL+, VOL, or MUTE, will control the devices volume only in its own mode.
1.
On the remote control, press and hold SETUP until the last-selected device key blinks twice, then release SETUP. Enter 9 - 9 - 3.

TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM: Mode key does not blink when you press a key. SOLUTION: Replace the batteries with two (2) new AA alkaline batteries (see page 7). PROBLEM: Mode key blinks when you press a key, but home entertainment device does not respond.
SOLUTION: Make sure you are aiming the remote control at your home entertainment device and that you are within 15 feet of the device you are trying to control. PROBLEM: The remote control does not control home entertainment devices or commands are not performing properly.
SOLUTION: Try all listed codes for the device brand being set up. Make sure all devices can be operated with an infrared remote control. PROBLEM: TV/VCR combo does not respond properly. SOLUTION: Use the VCR codes for your brand. Some combo units may require both a TV code and a VCR code for full operation (see page 9). PROBLEM: No volume on a second TV. SOLUTION: Follow instructions in Changing Volume Lock (see page 28). PROBLEM: CH+ , CH , and LAST do not work for your RCA TV.
SOLUTION: Due to RCA design (1983-1987), only the original remote control will operate these functions. PROBLEM: Changing channels does not work properly. SOLUTION: If original remote control required pressing ENTER to change channels, press ENTER on the remote control after entering a channel number. PROBLEM: Tried Search Method and still could not find a working code.
SOLUTION: Try the Search Method again after clearing out the device key as follows: Press and hold SETUP until mode key blinks twice, then release. Next enter 9 - 9 - 2. Then press and release the mode key to be cleared twice. PROBLEM: Remote control does not turn on Sony or Sharp TV/VCR Combo.
SOLUTION: For power on, these products require programming TV codes on the remote control. For Sony, use TV code 0000 and VCR code 0032. For Sharp, use TV code 0093 and VCR code 0048.
