Remote Control Help?

Question

OK so I have this RCA Universal Remote Control and I want to program it, but I lost the manual. I need it to be programed to a JVC DVD player, an EMerson TV, and a Panasonic VCR. The TV and DVD player are the most important.

Answer 1

Your best bet would be to try to find a manual online, or visit RCA's website for tech support.  Search specifically with model number of your remote, if available.

Answer 2

The remote may already be set up to operate your brand of TV, VCR, or Cable Box. It is pre-programmed with following codes:

TV-000

VCR-000

Cable Box-000

AUX is programmed with VCR code 037

For brands that require programming, there are two ways to program: Using Code Lists or Code Search. Use Code Search if the code lists are not available or if the codes from the lists do not operate a device.

Programming a Device using Code Search:

Manually turn ON your device (TV, VCR, Cable Box)

Press and "HOLD" CODE SEARCH

Press and release the device button you want to set up (TV, VCR, Cable Box) However, if you are using AUX for a device, press and release AUX first and then the device button for the type of device to be programmed (TV, VCR, or Cable). The selected device button will flash once.

Release CODE SEARCH.

Press OFF/ON repeatedly until the device turns off (you may have to press up to 100 times at a rate of once per second).

Once the device turns off, press and release ENTER.

With the device on, press any other button. If the device responds, no further programming is required. If the device does not respond, repeat steps 1-6.
