Press S and the item (say TV1) at the same time and the transmission light comes on. Enter the 3 digit code (you can get from a lot of web sites type "remote codes"). then if the code is accepted the light goes off and it is programmed. Most things have more than 1 code so try them all if you have to. I need Foxtel code and Strong set top box codes as none of them work. If you find out, please email me on [email protected]
