Using the INPUT button
Use the INPUT button to scroll through the available input channels and
view components you have connected to the monitor.

component you want to view is turned ON.
2. Press INPUT to tune to an available input channel.
3. Continue to press the INPUT button to scroll through the channels.
Programming the Remote
The universal remote can be programmed to control most brands of
remote controllable VCRs, satellite receivers and cable boxes. The remote
is already programmed to control most ProScan, RCA and GE TVs,
VCRs, DVD players, laserdisc players and satellite receivers.
Testing the Remote
To determine whether the universal remote needs to be programmed,
turn a device ON, such as a VCR, point the remote at the VCR, and press
the VCR1 button. Then press POWER or CH ^ (channel up) or CH v
(channel down) to see if the VCR responds to the remote commands. If
not, the remote needs to be programmed.
Modes of Operation
Because this universal remote can control
several different components (DVD
player, VCR, Cable Box, etc.) it uses
operational modes triggered by the
component buttons. For example if you
want the remote to control the TV, you
would press the TV button to put the
remote into TV mode before you could
control the TV.
