SHAW DIRECT IRC600-URC600 Remote Control

OVERVIEW

The Shaw Direct IRC600 IR and URC600 IR/RF Remote Controls by Universal Electronics are our latest generation universal remote controls. Their sophisticated technology allows you to consolidate up to three of your original home entertainment remote controls into one easy-to-use product.
The remote control requires installing two (2) new AA batteries (included) and simple programming instructions to control your TV. For best results, please read and perform all instructions listed here. Also, keep this guide for future reference.

INSTALLING BATTERIES

  1. Pull back the remote control’s battery cover and remove it.
  2. Insert the two (2) supplied AA batteries according to the + and – marks in the battery case.
  3. Push the battery cover back into place.
  4. Test the unit by pressing the power key.
    If batteries are inserted correctly, the Red Light will blink.

NOTE: When batteries need replacement, the remote control will stop operating. Replace the old batteries with new AA batteries.

PROGRAMMING SAT CONTROL

Your remote control address is set at the factory to 000 to control all of the functions on your Motorola satellite receiver. However, if you have more than one satellite receiver, you may want to prevent the remote control in one room from affecting the satellite receiver in another room. To prevent this kind of interference, you must “pair” each remote control with each receiver by assigning a new “address” to each combination. This “address” assignment is made using your remote control as follows:

  1. Press the SAT button to select the remote control’s SAT mode.

  2. Press the OPTIONS button to display the Options screen on your TV.

  3. On the Options Menu use the arrow buttons and press ENTER/OK to open the following menus. You can also press the indicated number on the remote control to access each menu directly.
    6 System Setup (select models only)
    4 System Settings
    3 Installation Settings
    2 Remote Control Address.

  4. Once you are on the “Remote Control Address screen” program the remote control using the remote control key-pad programming sequence.

  5.  Press and hold the remote controls SAT mode key until the red lights flash at least twice and release the SAT key.

  6. Enter a new 3 Digit SAT address from the below list using the number keys the remote control.

  7. Press ENTER/OK to save the new address and pair the remote with your satellite receiver.

  8. Press EXIT to leave the Options menu.
