Automator URC 200 Universal Remote Control
Basic Setup Universal Remote Automator URC - 200.
You can start setting up your Automator using either the Pre-Programmed Method or the Learning Method However, all the buttons of the Automator are setup at once with the Pre-Programmed Method, so it is usually faster than the one-button-at-a-time Learning Method.
Pre-Programmed Method
Power on the A/V component you wish to setup, so that you can test codes by sending power off ommands.
Refer to the pre-programmed code tables on pages 33 - 47 and write down the code numbers listed for our A/V component. The code numbers are listed by categories of devices, then by brand.
Press and hold both the MAIN and ENT (Enter) buttons for approximately three seconds. The top of the display will show “SETUP”. You are in SETUP mode now.
Note: You have 30 seconds to perform a step while you are in SETUP mode. If you don’t press a button within that time, the Automator will time out and return to normal operation.

Learning Method
The Automator can learn commands from your old remote controls one-button-at-a-time by following these simple steps:
Line-up the Automator with your old remote control, head-to-head, one or two inches apart. Press and hold the MAIN and ENT (Enter) buttons at the same time for approximately three seconds.
The top of the display will show “SETUP”. You are in SETUP mode now.
Note: You have 30 seconds to perform a step while you are in SETUP mode. If you don’t press a button within that time, the Automator will time out and return to normal operation.
Press the LEARN button.
The top of the screen will change to “LEARN”.
The display will show a list of the first five devices.
Select the device you would like to teach commands to by pressing the Device button.
Press any button you want to teach a command to.
Note: If you don’t see the display button you would like to teach, use the PAGE buttons. The only buttons you can’t teach are the PAGE and MAIN buttons.
Once you press a button, the top of the display will change from “LEARN” to “READY”.
Press any of the Device Buttons.
Press any Button.
Press and hold the button on your old remote control until the display changes to “RETRY”.
Press and hold the same button on your old remote control once again.
The Automator’s unique DoubleTap learning technology ensures compatibility with the widest variety of remote controls ever! Once you have taught the button twice, the display will change to either “GOOD” or “FAILED”.
If the “GOOD” label appears on top of the display, you were successful. Now, press the next button you wish to teach. Keep repeating steps 6 through 9 until you have learned all the buttons you want.
If the “FAILED” label appears on top of the display, try to teach the same button in Automator once again by repeating steps 6-8.
Continue to teach any commands from any of your remote controls by repeating steps 5-9 (to go back to step five, press MAIN once).
Once you completed teaching all the buttons, return to normal operation by pressing the MAIN button twice. Test all your new commands. If any of them don’t work, try learning again using these for Universal Remote Automator URC - 200.
Notes: Move to another room. Plasma TVs, sunlight, halogen or quartz lighting can interfere with the learning process.
Although the old remote control seems to work fine, change the batteries to fresh alkaline batteries.
Vary the distance between the remote controls gradually. Try 1/4”, 1”, 2”and so on, up to 4 feet.
Tap the button on the original remote control instead of pressing and holding it during the learning process.
The Automator’s Pre-Programmed code library is divided into categories (TV, VCR, AUX, etc.). Each category actually includes many types of components. For example, the VCR category includes TV/VCR combo units.
Within each category, the code numbers are listed in rows by brand (Sony, Panasonic, B & K, etc.). Some
brands have more than one three digit code for you to try. Just circle the correct row and refer to it while you
setup (step-by-step instructions for using Pre-Programmed codes are found on code list page).
