If your device or its original remote control does not have a Power key, select a different test function in this step}
5. Aim the remote control at the device (e.g., TV) and press [Up] one or more times. Stop when a working code performs the test function selected in step 4. If desired, use [Dn] to try a previous code. {In the search mode, the remote control will send IR codes from its library to the selected device, starting with the most popular code first.}
6. To lock in the code, press OK once.The bottom IR segment flashes twice.
7. To search for codes of your other devices, repeat steps 3 to 6, but use the appropriate device key and test function key for the device you are searching for.
