  1. Press and hold SET until the red light blinks twice, then release SET.

Now when you press the programmed FC key, the Cable box and TV will turn on and the Cable box will tune to channel 11.

Volume Lock

The DSS remote control is set at the factory to control the volume independently while in the TV, VCR, DSS, CBL, AUD, and CD modes.

To control the volume from one mode (e.g., TV) while in another mode (e.g., CBL, DSS, or VCR*), perform the instructions below to lock the volume setting. This procedure will not affect separate control of your audio component's volume in the AUD and CD modes*.

*NOTE: By pressing AUD or CD before entering the sequence below, the DSS remote control will operate your stereo and home theater volume controls in all modes.

Example – To Set Volume Lock To TV Mode:

  1. On the remote control, press TV once.
  2. Press and hold SET until the red light blinks twice, then release SET.
  3. Press VOL+. The red light will blink twice.

Punch Through

The VCR Transport Keys (i.e., REW, PLAY, FFWD, REC, STOP, and PAUSE) are set at the factory to control the VCR, even if TV, CBL, or DSS is the selected mode. In other words, VCR control “punches through” regardless of what mode is on. Moreover, you do not have to press VCR before pressing the mode key.

However, if AUD or CD is the selected mode, the VCR Transport Keys will not control the VCR unless you press VCR first. In these two modes, the VCR Transport Keys will operate the functions for the selected component.

To lock in new feature, press SET until Red Light blinks twice; then release SET.

PROBLEM: Red Indicator Light does not blink when you press a key.

SOLUTION: Replace the batteries with four (4) new “AAA” alkaline batteries (see page 4).

PROBLEM: The VOL+, VOL−, and MUTE keys are not functional.

SOLUTION: Make sure that volume control is locked to a component that has volume capabilities and is programmed into the DSS remote control.

PROBLEM: The DSS remote control will not learn a function properly from your original remote control.

SOLUTION: Make sure the IR LED from your original remote control is lined up with the IR LED on the DSS remote control (see step 5 on page 8). If your original remote control has a lens covering the IR LED, try moving the original remote to the left or right, until the DSS remote control picks up the signal.

PROBLEM: Red Indicator Light blinks when you press a key, but home entertainment component does not respond.

SOLUTION: Make sure you are aiming the DSS remote control at your home entertainment component and that you are within 15 feet of the component you are trying to control.

PROBLEM: The remote control does not control home entertainment components or commands are not working properly.

SOLUTION: Try all listed codes for the component brand being set up. Make sure all components 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 6).

PROBLEM: CH+, CH-, and LAST do not work for your RCA TV.

SOLUTION: Due to an 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 DSS remote control after entering a channel number.

PROBLEM: Tried Auto Scan and still could not find a working code.

SOLUTION: Try Auto Scan again after clearing out the component key as follows: Press and hold ENTER until Red Light blinks twice, then release. Next enter 9 - 9 - 2. Then press and release the component 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 into the DSS remote control. For Sony, use TV code 0029 and VCR code 0061. For Sharp, use TV code 0112 and VCR code 0077.
