Platinum Plus Troubleshooting

Addressing to Other Equipment

If you program the TV Mode and no code has been entered into the AUX Mode, the AUX Mode acts like the TV power button.

Note: If you start this procedure and at any time do not press a button within 20 seconds, the remote will end the procedure automatically. Simply start over again.
  1. Look up the Code(s) for the piece of equipment you are trying to address.
    If the codes do not work or the equipment is not listed, perform a Power Scan.
  2. Press and hold the correct Mode button (about three seconds) until all mode button backlights come on, then release.
  3. Use the number pad buttons to enter the three digit number corresponding to the equipment. The light will blink off after each digit is entered and then return to a steady light.
  4. Press the POUND (#) button. If the code entered is valid for the remote, the mode light flashes three times.
  5. To verify the code works, press the mode button. Then try several different functions for that equipment. Some codes may provide partial function, or respond differently than the button's titled function. Try the other codes listed for that device until you find one that offers more complete functionality.


How to Check the Device Codes

  1. Press and hold the mode button for the device, for about three seconds. When all the other mode button backlights come on, release the mode button.
  2. Press the POUND (#) button twice. The mode light flashes the number for each digit of the device code, with a pause between the groups of flashes. A quick flash is for zero. For example, the mode light flashes five times, pauses, flashes seven times, pauses, and flashes once quickly for the 570 code.
