    Programming the SKY remote to operate the TV Receiver

    Before the remote control can operate the TV it must be programmed to do so. A 3 or 4 digit code can be entered to select the correct IR command set, held in the remote control's memory.

    There is a database held on chip, in the remote control, which holds the IR codes for around 90 to 92% of TV manufacturers.

    The 4 digit code identifies the make/manufacturer. All individual codes stored for each manufacturer are identified by a 3 digit code which is listed below.

    The easiest way to set up the remote is to input the 3 digit code for the TV receiver if it is available.

    If the 3 digit code is not known then an additional facility allows you to input a 4 digit manufacturer's code which then allows you to step through all codes held for that manufacturer until the correct code is identified.

    The very newest TV receiver codes may not be stored in memory and it will not be until the next update of the remote's memory that these TV receivers can be controlled by the Sky remote
