Programming with Codes
Step 1: Find the Codes
First things first, you need to find the right codes for your devices. Don’t worry, it’s easier than it sounds. You can usually find the codes in the instruction manual that came with your GE Universal Remote. If you don’t have the manual, don’t panic. You can search for the codes online on the GE website or other reliable sources.
Step 2: Enter the Codes
Once you have the codes, it’s time to enter them into your GE Universal Remote. Here’s how:
Turn on the device you want to program (like your TV or DVD player).
Press and hold the “Setup” button on your GE Universal Remote until the indicator light comes on.
Enter the first code for your device using the number buttons on the remote. The indicator light should turn off if the code is entered correctly. If it doesn’t, try another code from the list.
Test the remote by pressing the power button. If the device turns off, congratulations – you’ve successfully programmed your GE Universal Remote. If not, don’t worry – just repeat the process with the next code on the list until you find the right one.
Step 3: Store the Code
Once you’ve found the correct code for your device, you’ll want to store it in your GE Universal Remote so you don’t have to enter it again. Here’s how:
Press and release the “Setup” button again.
Enter the code using the number buttons on the remote.
Press the “Power” button to test the remote. If the device turns on or off, the code has been successfully stored.
Programming Without Codes
But what if you don’t have the codes for your devices? Don’t worry – you can still program your GE Universal Remote using a different method called “code search.” Here’s how:
Step 1: Code Search
Turn on the device you want to program.
Press and hold the “Setup” button on your GE Universal Remote until the indicator light comes on.
Press the button for the device you want to program (like “TV” or “DVD”).
Press the “Power” button on the remote repeatedly until the device turns off. Each time you press the “Power” button, the remote is sending out a different code. Keep pressing until the device turns off – this means the remote has found the right code.
Step 2: Store the Code
Once you’ve found the right code using the code search method, you’ll want to store it in your GE Universal Remote so you don’t have to search for it again. Here’s how:
Press and release the “Setup” button again.
Enter the code using the number buttons on the remote.
Press the “Power” button to test the remote. If the device turns on or off, the code has been successfully stored.
Additional Tips and Tricks
If you accidentally skip over the correct code during code search, don’t worry – you can press the “Reverse” button to go back to the previous code.
If you’re having trouble finding the right code, try moving closer to the device you’re trying to program or adjusting the angle of the remote.
Conclusion
With these simple steps and easy-to-follow instructions, programming your GE Universal Remote is a breeze – whether you have the codes or not. Say goodbye to remote control chaos and hello to convenience and simplicity. So go ahead, grab your GE Universal Remote, and take control of your devices like never before.
