Basically, use this Commander in the same way as the Commanders  
supplied with your components.  
• Using this Commander will not increase the functions of your  
components. The functions of the Commander are limited to the  
functions of the components themselves. For example, if your TV  
does not have a MUTING function, the MUTING button on this  
Commander will not function with your TV.  
• Some functions of the component may not work with this  
Commander.  
• If your cable box can control volume, be sure to set its volume  
switch to a medium position. If the volume on the cable box is  
turned down completely, you will not be able to adjust your TVs  
volume with the Commander.

If youre using the Commander with a Sony component, you wont  
need to preset the Commander before you start using it.  
To set up the Commander to use with other (non-Sony)  
manufacturers’ components, or to use with a component that is not  
preset at the factory, youll need to follow the instructions in this  
manual to preset the Commander with the correct code number for  
your components. (See the supplied “Component Code Numbers”  
also.)  
Design and specifications are subject to change without notice.

2 Press and release the S (set) button.  
If you have problems setting up or using the Commander:  
• When setting up the Commander, carefully go through the procedures  
described in “Setting the Code.” If the code thats listed first for your  
component doesnt work, try all the codes for your component - in the order  
in which theyre listed. If all the codes fail to work (or if your component is  
not listed in this manual), try using the procedures in “Searching for the  
Correct Code.”  
• Check that youre aiming the Commander directly at the component, and that  
there are no obstructions between the Commander and the component.  
• Make sure the batteries youre using are not worn out, and that theyre  
inserted correctly.  
• Check that the button of the TV, VCR, CBL/SAT, or DVD is pressed to choose  
your desired component.  
• Check that the component has infrared remote capability. For example, if  
your component didnt come with a remote commander, it probably isnt  
capable of being controlled by a remote commander.  
3 Press the button of the component on the Commander that you  
want to set up.

• There may be cases you may turn on/ off the cable box by pressing the CH+ or  
CH– buttons on the Commander.  
• If your cable box can control volume, be sure to set its volume control to a  
medium position. If the volume on the cable box is turned down completely,  
you will not be able to adjust your TVs volume with the Commander.

1 See the supplied “Component Code numbers”, and find the three-  
digit code number for the desired component.

Each time you press the CH+ button and then the POWER button,  
a new code number will be transmitted.  
Keep trying until your component operates by receiving the  
transmitted signal from the Commander (e.g., the power turns off,  
the CH+ function works, playback starts, etc.) Be patient as you do  
this; it may take about 70 tries until the correct code number is  
located.

• The Commander can be set up to operate only one component per  
button – unless their code numbers happen to be the same. For  
example, you cannot set up the Commander to operate a Sony TV  
and a Panasonic TV simultaneously (because they use different  
code numbers).  
• You may not be able to operate even a Sony brand component with  
the factory presetting. In such a case, follow the procedure in  
“Setting the Code.”
