4. Programming

To make your remote suitable for your own equipment, you have to program it once. You can do this by entering a code, related to the brand and type of equipment you want to control. You can program any equipment under any MODE key. For example, if you have three videorecorders, you can program videorecorder 1 under DVR, videorecorder 2 under AUX and videorecorder 3 under AUDIO.

4.1. Manual code entry

Take your code book and search for the list matching the equipment you are looking for, e.g. TV or DVR. Next, find the relevant brand (e.g. Sony). Now you will find one or more 4-digit codes. If there is more than one code, it depends on your equipment which code is correct. Generally, the codes are displayed in order of age of the equipment. Older equipment first, younger equipment at the end. Sometimes you will have to try several codes before you find the right code for your equipment.

1. Make sure your equipment is switched on (for example TV).
2. Press and hold the (8) key until the LED indicator lights continuously. Release the key.
3. Press and release the mode key (4) of the device you want to control (for example TV).
4. Enter the 4-digit code from the Code Book by using the key pad (14). The LED (2) turns off after the last digit is entered. If you entered a wrong code the LED blinks for 3 seconds and then goes off. You have to repeat from step 2.

5. Point the remote in the direction of your TV and press the POWER button (1). Your device should turn off. Check other functions (for example for a DVR FF or REW, etc.). If certain functions are not responding, this indicates that the entered code is not the correct one. In that case repeat the above procedure with the next corresponding code of your brand.

6. Repeat this procedure from step 1 for the other equipment you want to control (DVR, DVD, STB,...). If your equipment (TV, STB, etc...) does not respond, try the other codes for your brand. If it still doesn't respond, try the manual code search method (4.4 Manual code search).

4.2. Automatic code search for some well-known brands

If your brand is listed hereafter, you can use the brand search method (faster than the "manual" and the "automatic code search").

BRAND	CODE	BRAND	CODE
Philips / Radiola	1	Telefunken / Saba / Normende	4
Akai / Daewoo / JVC / Panasonic / Sharp / Sony / Toshiba	2	Grundig / Blaupunkt	5
Brandt / Thomson	3 Nokia / ITT 6

1. Turn on the device you want to control.
2. Press and hold S (8) until the LED indicator (2) lights steadily. Release S button.
3. Press the mode button (4) that matches the equipment you wish to control. The LED (2) blinks once.
4. Enter the code corresponding to your brand, point the TAKE 6 Remote in the direction of your equipment, press CHAN+ (6) once only. Continue to point the TAKE 6 Remote at your equipment until the equipment changes Channel (the remote control sends an IR signal every second. Please wait until your equipment reacts). When your equipment does react, press on the key -/-- (13) to confirm. If you accidentally miss the code, you can stop the autosearch by pressing CHAN- (6) and by repeatedly pressing this key return to the right code. Press -/-- (13) to confirm.

4.3 Automatic code search for all brands

When searching an unknown code, you can step through the library automatically (AutoSearch). When your equipment responds, you can stop the searching process and store the code you found.

Note: as you can dedicate any appliance (TV, DVD, STB...) to DVR, DVD, CD, STB, AUDIO or AUX key, you need first to enter any 4-digit code for the kind of appliance you wish to control (found in the code book), i.e.: If you want to program a STB under the DVR key, enter ANY STB code found in the code book and then follow the steps below:

1. Turn on the device you want to control.
2. Press and hold S (8) until the LED indicator (2) lights steadily. Release S button.
3. Press the mode button (4) that matches the equipment you wish to control. The LED (2) blinks once.
4. Press CHAN+ (6) once. After a few seconds the remote starts stepping through the code library (fast search, 1 code per second). When the device responds, you can press CHAN+ (6) to switch to slow search (1 code per 3 seconds). You can step back by pressing CHAN- (6) (you can step forward by pressing CHAN+ (6) in case you went too far back). As soon as the device responds again, press the -- key (13) to store the code you found.

Remark: if some functions of your equipment don't work, you need to try another code for your brand. The search function starts after the last confirmed code. For example, if it was 030, the search function starts at 031, and it will keep on trying until the last possible code.

4.4 Manual code search

Note: as you can dedicate any appliance TV, DVR, DVD, STB, AUDIO, AUX, keys, you first need to enter any 4-digit code for the kind of appliance you wish to control (found in the code book), i.e.: If you want to program a STB

under the AUX key, enter ANY STB code found in the code book and then follow the steps below:

1. Make sure your equipment is switched on.
2. Press and hold S (8) until the LED indicator lights steadily. Release S
3. Press the mode key (4) that matches the equipment you want to control (for example TV).
4. Press CHAN+ (6) repeatedly until the channel changes. If you step past the correct code use CHAN- (6) to go back to the right code.
5. When the equipment you want to control reacts, press -- (13) to confirm the code.

Note: If your equipment doesn't have CHAN+ you can use PLAY (DVR or DVD) (15) or POWER (1) key. The search starts after the last registered code. If that was 030, the search starts at 031 until the last possible code and then goes from 000 to 029. Note: if certain functions of your equipment can't be controlled you will have to find a different code for your brand.

4.5 Identifying codes found

If you don't know the code (for example because you found the code by autosearch) you can identify it as described below:

1. Press and hold S (8) until the LED indicator (2) lights steadily. Release S.
2. Press the mode key (4) for the equipment you want to identify (DVR, DVD, CD, STB, AUDIO or AUX). The LED blinks once.
3. Press again S. The LED blinks once.
4. To identify the first digit press each number button from 0 - 9 (14) until the LED blinks. The number you pressed is the first digit of the code.
5. Press each number key from 0 - 9 as above to find the second digit.
6. Press each number key from 0 - 9 as above to find the third digit.
7. Press each number key from 0 - 9 as above to find the fourth digit. When the fourth digit has been found the LED will go off.

4.6 Volume Control Punch Through

The TAKE 6 remote control allows you to select which Mode controls your volume/mute buttons. The volume buttons VOL+ (5), VOL- (5) and Mute (3) can be set for individual control by EACH device Mode or can be set for ALL device Modes to punch-through volume control to one specific single device Mode.
