Introduction
Searching the Code Library
If none of the codes listed for your device work,
you can search the code library for a valid code.
The remote automatically selects the proper code.
The AT2300 AllTouch® Remote Control
(remote) can do the job of three separate
remote controls. You can program the
remote to operate your TV, VCR, and cable
set-top device using the procedures in this
guide.
You can program the remote to operate your
VCR. After you switch the remote to VCR
operation, you can play, fast-forward, pause,
rewind, or stop a VCR tape.
1. Important: Turn on the device in question
If you want the DHCT to manage the recording
of events with your VCR, you must use the VCR
Commander™ Service. (See the VCR Commander
Service User’s Guide for more information or ask
your cable service provider.) Without this service,
you must manually set up your VCR to record
programs.
