HOW THE 3 IN 1 WORKS  
Before you begin to use the 3 in 1, it is helpful to  
understand a little about how it works — nothing  
technical, only an idea of what you can expect  
from it.  
After you set up the 3 in 1, its command keys work  
like the keys on your original remote controls,  
though the labeling might differ slightly. For ex-  
ample, a key on your original remote control that  
might be labeled PWR ON/OFF is equivalent to  
the 3 in 1’s PWR key.  
Notes:  
P is a special key that you use when you set  
up (program) the 3 in 1 to replace your origi-  
nal remote controls.  
TV, VCR, and CBL are  
keys. You use  
device  
them when you set up the 3 in 1 to replace  
your original remote controls. You also use  
the device keys during normal operation to  
tell the 3 in 1 which device you want to con-  
trol.  
PWR (power), MUTE, and  
(recall) oper-  
LAST  
ate the same as on your original remote con-  
trol.  
• Whenever you use the 3 in 1’s RECORD key,  
you must press it twice. This safety feature  
helps prevent you from accidentally erasing  
video tapes.

PREPARATION  
INSTALLING BATTERIES  
Cautions:  
• Be sure to have fresh batteries ready to  
install before you remove the old batteries.  
The 3 in 1’s memory only lasts about a  
minute without the batteries. If the memory is  
lost, simply re-enter the 3-digit manufactur-  
ers’ codes for your remote-controlled  
devices.  
• Do not mix old and new batteries, different  
types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or  
rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of  
different capacities.  
1.Press the battery  
compartment cover  
tab and lift off the  
cover.  
2.Install two AAA alka-  
line batteries as indi-  
cated by the polarity  
symbols  
marked  
inside the compart-  
ment.  
3.Replace the cover.  
When the 3 in 1’s range decreases or the 3 in 1  
operates erratically, replace the batteries.

15-1916b.fm Page 6 Monday, July 19, 1999 12:17 PM  
Note: Do not place objects on top of the remote  
control after you install the batteries. This can  
press down keys and reduce battery life.  
SETTING UP YOUR REMOTE  
CONTROL  
1. Refer to “Manufacturers’ Codes” on Page 10  
and write down the codes for your original  
remote controls on the provided label.  
2. Press the device key for the type of remote  
you are replacing (TV, VCR, or CBL).  
3. Hold down P until the red indicator blinks  
twice, then release P and enter the 3-digit  
manufacturer’s code.  
For example, to replace a Panasonic TV’s  
remote control (manufacturer code 051), you  
would press:  
TV P 0 5 1  
4. When the indicator blinks twice again, point  
the 3 in 1 at your device and press PWR. The  
device should turn on (or off, if it was on).  
Repeat these steps for additional devices.  
Notes:  
• The punch-through feature is automatically  
turned on for the TV’s volume and mute con-  
trols. This means that when you select CBL  
and press one of the volume buttons or  
MUTE, the remote actually sends the codes  
to the television to control it, not the cable  
converter. If you want to use your cable con-  
verter’s volume and mute controls, disable  
the punch-through feature for these buttons.  
See “Punch Through” on Page 8.

• If the remote does not operate your device,  
try other codes listed in “Manufacturers’  
Codes” for your brand of TV, VCR, or cable  
box. If your device still does not respond, fol-  
low the steps outlined in “If You Have Prob-  
lems” on Page 23.

OPERATION  
1. Press the device key for the device you want  
to control.  
2. Point the 3 in 1 toward the device and press  
PWR to turn it on.  
3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for other devices.  
4. Point the 3 in 1 toward the device you want  
to control and press the appropriate device  
key, then the desired command keys.  
The command keys on the 3 in 1 work the  
same as the keys on the device’s original  
remote control; however, the labeling might  
differ slightly.  
5. To turn off the last device you selected, press  
PWR. To turn off other devices, press the  
device key for the device you want to turn off,  
and then press PWR.  
PUNCH THROUGH  
The punch-through feature lets you control two  
different devices without pressing the device keys  
for each one first. Here’s how it works.  
No device uses all of the 3 in 1’s keys. For exam-  
ple, a TV is often the only device that uses the  
VOL keys, and a VCR is usually the only device  
that uses keys such as REWIND, FAST F, and  
RECORD.  
When you press TV to control a TV, then press  
VCR to control a VCR, any keys not used by the  
VCR will still control the TV. For example, VOL  
still controls the TV’s volume.  
If your cable box or VCR has a volume control,  
you can turn off the punch-through feature so you  
can use the cable box’s or VCR’s volume control  
to control the sound (if it can already do so).

15-1916b.fm Page 9 Monday, July 19, 1999 12:17 PM  
If you want to turn off the punch-through feature  
and control the volume through your cable box,  
hold down P until the red indicator blinks twice.  
Release P, then press 9 9 3 CBL. When the indi-  
cator blinks twice, you can control the volume  
through your cable box.  
If you want to turn the punch-through feature back  
on and control the volume through your TV, hold  
down P until the red indicator blinks twice. Re-  
lease P, then press 9 8 0. When the indicator  
blinks twice, you can control the volume using  
your TV.  
The punch-through feature does not work if the  
last two devices you select have the same (or  
similar) features. For example, most TVs and  
VCRs have channel keys on their remote con-  
trols. In this case, you would have to press the de-  
sired device key before you use the 3 in 1’s  
channel keys.  
FAVORITE CHANNEL SCAN  
Your 3 in 1 is equipped with a favorite channel  
scan (S) key. You can set up the remote to re-  
peatedly scan through up to 10 of your favorite  
channels on your TV, VCR, or cable box anytime  
you press S.  
The favorite channel scan key can only be  
Note:  
set up for one device (TV, VCR or CBL). You can-  
not set up a favorite channel list for another de-  
vice until you clear the existing list.  
1. Press the device key (TV, VCR, or CBL) for  
the device that will contain your favorite  
channel list.  
2. Hold down P until the 3 in 1’s red light blinks  
twice. Release P and enter 9 9 6.

3. Enter the channel number of the first channel  
you want to include in your favorite channel  
list. Then press P.  
You must press 0 before entering a  
Note:  
single digit channel number. If you are enter-  
ing a channel that is three digits long, such  
as 103, you do not have to press P after  
entering the channel number.  
4. Repeat Step 3 for other channels (up to 10)  
you want to include in your list. Then, hold  
down P until the 3 in 1’s red light blinks twice.  
5. To scan through your favorite channel list,  
press the device key (TV, VCR, or CBL) for  
the device that contains your favorite chan-  
nel list, then press S. Your 3 in 1 repeatedly  
scans through your favorite channel list,  
stopping at each channel for three seconds.  
6. To stop at one of your favorite channels while  
the 3 in 1 is running through your list, press  
any key on the remote (other than S).  
Clearing Favorite Channel Scan  
1. Hold down P until the 3 in 1’s red light blinks  
twice, then release P.  
2. Press 9 9 6, then hold down P until the 3 in  
1’s red light blinks twice.

IF YOU HAVE PROBLEMS  
MANUAL CODE SEARCH  
If the 3 in 1 does not control your remote-con-  
trolled devices when you first set it up, you prob-  
ably did not enter the correct 3-digit codes for  
your devices.  
You can try all the codes for the brand of your de-  
vice, or because many manufacturers make prod-  
ucts using several different brand names, you  
might want to search the 3 in 1’s entire library by  
following these steps.  
1. Manually turn on the device you are trying to  
set up.  
2. Aim the 3 in 1 at the device.  
3. Press the device key, then hold down P until  
the red indicator blinks twice. Release P.  
4. Press 9 9 1 PWR, then press the device key.  
Alternate between pressing PWR and the  
device key until the device responds.  
Each time you press the device key, the 3 in  
1 advances to the next manufacturer’s code  
in its list.  
5. When the device responds, press and  
release P to lock in the manufacturer’s code.  
The red indicator blinks twice.  
If necessary, repeat these steps for each device.  
DETERMINING THE 3-DIGIT  
CODE  
After you set up your 3 in 1 remote control using  
the manual code search, you can find which 3-  
digit code the 3-1in-1 is set to by following these  
steps.  
1. Press the device key you want to get the  
manufacturer’s code from.

15-1916b.fm Page 25 Monday, July 19, 1999 12:17 PM  
2. Hold down P until the red indicator blinks  
twice, then release it.  
3. Press 9 9 0. The red indicator blinks twice.  
4. Press 1 and count the number of times the  
red indicator blinks. This is the first number  
of your 3-digit manufacturer’s code. If the red  
indicator does not blink, the digit is a zero.  
5. Press 2 and count the number of times the  
red indicator blinks. This is the second num-  
ber of your 3-digit manufacturer’s code. If the  
red indicator does not blink, the digit is a  
zero  
6. Press 3 and count the number of times the  
red indicator blinks. This is the third number  
of your 3-digit manufacturer’s code. If the red  
indicator does not blink, the digit is a zero.

TROUBLESHOOTING  
If the 3 in 1 stops working after you successfully  
test the control of each device, or if you are un-  
able to get the 3 in 1 to work at all, check the fol-  
lowing:  
• Be sure you press the device key for the  
device you want to control.  
• Check and replace the batteries, if neces-  
sary.  
• Confirm that your remote-controlled devices  
are working properly using manual controls  
or their original remotes.  
• If some buttons do not work for your device,  
you might be able to scan to a better device  
code.  
If you are still unable to determine the problem,  
call our nationwide Universal Remote Control  
Hotline at 1-800-955-2599.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
Your 3 in 1 Easy Remote is an example of supe-  
rior design and craftsmanship, and should be  
treated with care. The suggestions below will help  
you enjoy the 3 in 1 for many years.  
• Keep the 3 in 1 dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry  
immediately. Liquids might contain minerals  
that can corrode the electronic circuits.  
• Use and store the 3 in 1 only in normal tem-  
perature  
environments.  
Temperature  
extremes can shorten the life of electronic  
devices, damage batteries, and distort or  
melt plastic parts.  
• Keep the 3 in 1 away from dust and dirt,  
which can cause premature wear of parts.  
• Handle the 3 in 1 gently and carefully. Drop-  
ping it can damage circuit boards and cases  
and can cause the 3 in 1 to work improperly.  
• Use only fresh batteries of the required size  
and type. Batteries can leak chemicals that  
damage your 3 in 1’s electronic parts.  
• Wipe the 3 in 1 with a damp cloth occasion-  
ally to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh  
chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong  
detergents to clean the 3 in 1.  
Modifying or tampering with the 3 in 1’s internal  
components can cause a malfunction and might  
invalidate your 3 in 1’s warranty. If your 3 in 1 is  
not performing as it should, take it to your local  
RadioShack store for assistance.
