RCA RCR6473R Universal Remote Control
Product Information
Specifications
- Model: RCR6473R
- Power Source: Two AAA alkaline batteries (not included)
Product Usage Instructions
Step 1: Install your batteries
Your universal remote requires two AAA alkaline batteries (not included).
To install the batteries:
- Remove the battery compartment cover.
- Insert the batteries, matching the positive and negative ends to the markings inside the battery compartment.
- Push the battery cover back into place.
Step 2: Program your remote
To use this universal remote with your home entertainment system, you need to program it to control your devices. There are four ways you can program the universal remote to operate your devices:
Auto Code Search
The Auto Code Search goes automatically through all the codes for the device
you’re trying to control. When you find the one that operates your device, you
can stop the search and store that code.
To control combo devices, like TV/DVDs and TV/VCRs, you need to program each key separately. Each key will control that part of the combo device.
If the original remote control that came with your device has separate ON and OFF keys (instead of a single POWER key), the Auto Code Search might not work with that device. Try the Direct Code Entry method described later in this manual.
To exit without saving a new code at any point in the Auto Code Search, press the CLEAR key.
Note: To program for a DVD player, you must first press and hold the DVD key. While you’re holding the DVD key, press the number 3 key. Then release both keys.
- Manually turn on the device you want to control.
- Press and hold the corresponding device key (e.g., TV, DVD) until the indicator light stays on.
- Point the remote directly at the front panel of the device you want to control.
- Press the SLOW key on the remote and wait 5 seconds. The remote is testing a batch of 10 codes on your device.
- Did your device turn off?
- YES: Go to step 5.
- NO: Press SLOW again. The remote tests the next batch of 10 codes. Keep pressing SLOW every 5 seconds until your device turns off.
- When your device turns off, press the SKIP BACK key on the remote and wait at least 2 seconds. The remote tries the last of the previous ten codes.
- Did your device turn on?
- YES: Press the OK key. You’re done! You’ve programmed this device key.
- NO: Press SKIP BACK again. The remote tests the next code in the batch. Keep pressing SKIP BACK every 2 seconds until your device turns back on. When it does, press OK.
NOTES:
- Throughout the programming of each key, be sure to keep the remote pointed at the IR sensor of the device you are currently programming the remote to control.
- Test the remote with the device to make sure the device key is programmed with the correct code for maximum functionality. If some features don’t work, try a different code. See the Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality section below for more information.
- During the Auto Code Search, the remote ignores keypresses that aren’t part of the search.
- The search times out after two minutes (the LED blinks four times and turns off, and the last programmed code under that device key is retained).
- The indicator light blinks four times and turns off when the remote has gone through all the codes. The remote exits the Auto Code Search. If your device hasn’t turned off yet, try a different search method.

should your remote get stuck in a place where the keys remain depressed, such
as between sofa cushions.
Program your remote
To use this universal remote with your home entertainment system, fi rst you need to program it to control your devices. There are four ways you can program the universal remote to operate your devices:
- • The Auto Code Search goes automatically through all the codes for the device you’re trying to control. It’s the easiest method, but it can sometimes take longer than some of the other programming methods.
• The Brand Code Search searches through the codes for select brands of devices. It’s not as easy as the auto code search, but it can be faster.
• The Direct Code Entry lets you enter a code from the accompanying code list for your brand of device. It’s not as easy as the other methods, but it’s potentially the fastest method.
• The Manual Code Search lets you manually go through all the codes for the device you’re trying to control.
Auto Code Search
The Auto Code Search goes automatically through all the codes for the device
you’re trying to control. When you find the one that operates your device, you
can stop the search and store that code.
TIPS: Each device key is associated with a type of device—the TV is preset to
search for TVs, SAT•CBL•STRM for satellite receivers, digital TV converters,
streaming players, or cable boxes, DVD for DVD players, and DVR•AUX1 for DVRs,
AUDIO for audio receivers, and VCR•AUX2 for VCRs. To program a device key for
a different type of device, see the Reassigning the DVR•AUX1 and VCR•AUX2 Keys
section.
To control combo devices, like TV/DVDs and TV/VCRs, you need to program each
key separately. Each key will control that part of the combo device.
If the original remote control that came with your device has separate ON and
OFF keys (instead of a single POWER key), the Auto Code Search might not work
with that device. Try the Direct Code Entry method described later in this
manual.
To exit without saving a new code at any point in the Auto Code Search, press
the CLEAR key.
Note: To program for a DVD player, you must first press and hold the DVD key. While you’re holding the DVD key, press the number 3 key. Then release both keys.

-
Point the remote directly at the front panel of the device you want to control. Press SLOW on the remote and wait 5 seconds.
The remote is testing a batch of 10 codes on your device.
Did your device turn off?
YES: Go to step 5.
NO: Press SLOW again. The remote tests the next batch of 10 codes.
Keep pressing SLOW every 5 seconds until your device turns off. -
When your device turns off, press the SKIP BACK key on the remote and wait at least 2 seconds.
The remote tries the last of the previous ten codes.
Did your device turn on?
YES: Press the OK key. You’re done! You’ve programmed this device key.
NO: Press SKIP BACK again. The remote tests the next code in the batch.
Keep pressing SKIP BACK every 2 seconds until your device turns back on. When it does, press OK.
Note: If you accidentally press the SKIP BACK key after your device turns on, press the SKIP FWD key. Then, wait two seconds to see if your device turns off again.
NOTES
Throughout the programming of each key, be sure to keep the remote pointed at
the IR sensor of the device you are currently programming the remote to
control.
Test the remote with the device to make sure the device key is programmed with
the correct code for maximum functionality. If some features don’t work, try a
different code. See the “Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality” section
below for more information.
During the Auto Code Search, the remote ignores keypresses that aren’t part of
the search.
The search times out after two minutes (the LED blinks four times and turns
off, and the last programmed code under that device key is retained).
The indicator light blinks four times and turns off when the remote has gone
through all the codes. The remote exits the Auto Code Search. If your device
hasn’t turned off yet, try a different search method.
Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality
- Try a variety of the device’s functions with the remote. If some device features don’t work, go to the next step to try a different code.
- Repeat the Auto Code Search Method from the beginning. When your device turns off, do not stop searching. Instead, with the unit now off, continue to press the SLOW key every 5 seconds until the unit turns back on.
- Once the unit turns back on, press the SKIP BACK key on the remote every 2 seconds until your device turns off again. When your device turns off again, press the OK key.
- Test the key’s functionality again by attempting to control a variety of the device’s functions. If the code that has been stored controls the majority of the device’s functions, programming is complete. If the code stored does not give maximum functionality, try another code.
Brand Code Search
The Brand Code Search goes through only the codes for one of the select brands
listed in the accompanying code list. If your brand of device is listed, this
search can be very quick and easy.
TIPS: Each device key is associated with a type of device—the TV is preset to
search for TVs, SAT•CBL•STRM for satellite receivers, digital TV converters,
streaming players, or cable boxes, DVD for DVD players, and DVR•AUX1 for DVRs,
AUDIO for audio receivers, and VCR•AUX2 for VCRs. To program a device key for
a different type of device, see the Reassigning the DVR•AUX1 and VCR•AUX2 Keys
section.
To control combo devices, like TV/DVDs and TV/VCRs, you need to program each
key separately. Each key will control that part of the combo device.
If the original remote control that came with your device has separate ON and
OFF keys (instead of a single POWER key), the Brand Code Search might not work
with that device. Try the Direct Code Entry method described later in this
manual.
To exit without saving a new code at any point in the Brand Code Search, press
the CLEAR key.

Note: For single-digit brand codes, press the 0 key first (for example: 0, 5 for “5”) -
Point the remote directly at the front panel of the device you want to control. Press SKIP FWD on the remote and wait 2 seconds. The remote is testing a single code for your device’s brand.
Did your device turn off?
YES: Press the OK key to store the code. You’re done! You’ve programmed
this device key.
NO: Press SKIP FWD again. The remote tests the next code for your brand.
Keep pressing SKIP FWD every 2 seconds until your device turns off. When it
does, press OK.
NOTES
Throughout the programming of each key, be sure to keep the remote pointed at
the IR sensor of the device you are currently programming the remote to
control.
Test the remote with the device to make sure the device key is programmed with
the correct code for maximum functionality. If some features don’t work, try a
different code. See the “Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality” section
below for more information.
During the Brand Code Search, the remote ignores keypresses that aren’t part
of the search.
The search times out after two minutes (the indicator light blinks four times
and turns off, and the last programmed code under that device key is
retained).
The indicator light blinks four times and turns off when the remote has gone
through all the codes. The remote exits the Brand Code Search. If your device
hasn’t turned off yet, try a different search method.
Testing the Code for Maximum Functionality
- Try a variety of the device’s functions with the remote. If some device features don’t work, go to the next step to try a different code.
- Repeat the Brand Code Search from the beginning. When the device turns off for the fi rst time, don’t press the OK key, which would store the same code. Instead, with the unit now off, continue to press the SKIP FWD key repeatedly until the unit turns back on.
- Once the unit turns back on, you have found another code that operates the device. Press the OK key.
- Test the key’s functionality again by attempting to control a variety of the device’s functions. If the code that has been stored controls the majority of the device’s functions, programming is complete. If the code stored does not give maximum functionality, try another code.
Direct Code Entry
Direct Code Entry lets you enter a code from the accompanying code list for
your brand of device. It’s not as easy as the other methods, but it’s
potentially the fastest method.
TIPS: Each device key is associated with a type of device—the TV is
preset for TVs, SAT•CBL•STRM for satellite receivers, digital TV converters,
streaming players, or cable boxes, DVD for DVD players, and DVR•AUX1 for DVRs,
AUDIO for audio receivers, and VCR• AUX2 for VCRs. To program a device key for
a different type of device, see the Reassigning the DVR•AUX1 and VCR•AUX2 Keys
section.
To control combo devices, like TV/DVDs and TV/VCRs, you need to program each
key separately. Each key will control that part of the combo device.
-
Manually turn on the device you want to control.
-
Find the Code List that came with the remote. Locate the section for the type of device you’re trying to program, and fi nd your brand in that section. Circle the codes for your brand and keep them handy.
-
Press and hold the device key you want to program (the indicator light comes on).
While you’re holding down the device key, use your other hand enter the fi rst fi ve-digit code for your brand in the code list (the indicator light goes off after the fi rst digit). -
When you’ve fi nished entering the fi ve-digit code, keep holding down the device key and look at the indicator light.
Is the indicator light on?
YESY: ou’re done! You’ve programmed this device key.
NO, it blinked four times and turned offY: ou have either entered a code
number that is not in the code lists or missed a step in the code entry
procedure. Try step 3 again.
NOTES
Remember to enter the code for future reference in the box provided in the
Code Retrieval section of this manual.
If your brand isn’t listed in the code list, use one of the Code Search
methods to program the remote control. (Refer to the Auto and Manual Code
Search methods.)
If you release the device key any time during the Direct Code Entry procedure,
the indicator light blinks four times, and the process is exited. The last
programmed code under the device key is retained.
Test the remote with the device to make sure the device key is programmed with
the correct code for maximum functionality. If some features don’t work, try a
different code in the list.
Manual Code Search
The Manual Code Search takes you one-by-one through all the codes for the
device you’re trying to control. When you fi nd the one that operates your
device, you stop the search and store that code.
TIPS: The Manual Code Search method may take a long time because the
remote searches through all of the codes in its memory one-by-one. If your
brand is listed in the Brand Codes or the Code Lists, fi rst try the Brand Code
Search or the Direct Code Entry method.
Each device key is associated with a type of device—the TV is preset to search
for TVs, SAT•CBL•STRM for satellite receivers, digital TV converters,
streaming players, or cable boxes, DVD for DVD players, and DVR•AUX1 for DVRs,
AUDIO for audio receivers, and VCR•AUX2 for VCRs. To program a device key for
a different type of device, see the Reassigning the DVR•AUX1 and VCR•AUX2 Keys

Tour of the Remote
Actual model may vary from illustration
In most cases, the keys on this remote perform the same functions as the keys
on your original remotes once you’ve programmed this remote to operate your
components. Many keys on this remote have other functions as well.
Device keys (TV,SAT•CBL•STRM, DVD,DVR•AUX1, AUDIO,VCR•AUX2) put the remote in
the right mode to control your device.
SLOW•ASPECT key changes between full- and widescreen formats on HDTVs; it also
activates slow playback on DVDs and DVRs.
GUIDE•HOME and MENU put the remote in menu/guide mode; they also access the
same features as the keys on your original remotes.
CLEAR exits remote programming; it also performs the same functions as on your
original remotes.
Arrow keys act as navigation keys in device guides and menu systems.
The INPUT and — (dash) key has three functions: (1) it toggles through all the video or audio sources connected to your TV or audio device; (2) when the remote is in VCR mode, this button toggles between VCR and the TV input; (3) when you’re entering digital channel numbers directly, this button lets you separate the main channel number from the sub-channel number (such as 59.1).
IMPORTANT
Because this remote controls more than one device, you must fi rst “tell” the
remote which device you wish to operate. That means, if you wish to operate
your TV, you must fi rst press the TV key to put the remote in the TV Mode. The
remote stays in that device mode until you press a different device key. For
example, if your remote is in TV Mode and you want to operate the DVD player,
you must press the DVD key to change device modes.
Advanced Functions
Programming the DVR•AUX1 and VCR•AUX2 Keys To Control Other Devices
The DVR•AUX1 key defaults to control a DVR, and the VCR•AUX2 key defaults to
control a VCR. If you want these keys to control different kinds of devices
(an additional TV, DVD, satellite or cable box, for example), you must
reassign it.
- Press and hold the key you want to program (DVR•AUX1 or VCR•AUX2 key. The indicator light turns on.
-
While holding down the DVR•AUX1 or VCR•AUX2 key,press and release the number key on the keypad for the device you want to control (see the chart below). The indicator light turns off.
DVR•AUX1 or VCR•AUX2 KEY CONTROLS:Additional TV| press 1
VCR or DVR| press 2
Additional DVD| press 3
Additional audio device| press 4
Additional streaming player, satellite receiver, cable box, or DTV converter| press 5 - Release the DVR•AUX1 or VCR•AUX2 key. The indicator light blinks four times and then turns off. The DVR•AUX1 or VCR•AUX2 key is now set to control the device type you selected.
- Follow the directions in the auto, brand, direct entry,or manual code search to program the DVR•AUX1 or VCR•AUX2 key.
Volume Punch-Through
Volume Punch-through allows the VOL and MUTE keys,when pressed in
SAT•CBL•STRM, DVD, DVR or VCR modes, to “punch through” to either TV or AUDIO,
whichever was accessed last. Volume Punch-Through occurs automatically and
allows you to control the volume without exiting the current mode. (If either
AUX key has been programmed with a TV or AUDIO code, volume can punch through
to these devices as well.)
Note: Volume Punch-Through does not occur in cases where the component
code has its own volume/mute controls, such as some satellite receivers.
Advanced Punch-Through
Volume Punch-Through, as described above, occurs automatically. If you want to
specify whether Volume Punch-Through is directed to the TV or AUDIO while in
SAT•CBL•STRM, DVD, DVR•AUX1 or VCR•AUX2 modes, follow the steps below.
Note: This option can also be enabled for an AUX key, if it is programmed with a VCR, DVR, DVD, CD, SAT or TV code.
- Press and hold the key whose volume commands you want to send to the TV or audio device. The indicator light turns on.
- While holding down the device key, press and hold the VOL up key. The indicator light turns off.
- After holding down both keys for 3 seconds, the indicator light turns on and stays on. Release both keys.
- Press and release the device key you want the Volume Punch-Through to be directed to from the selected mode (TV, AUDIO or AUX key). The indicator light fl ashes, then turns off.
Note: The device key pressed in step 4 must be programmed with a TV or
AUDIO component. If an invalid key is pressed, the LED fl ashes four times,
then turns off.
Important: Once you have programmed any device with a specifi ed Volume Punch-
Through, the Volume Punch-Through for all other devices defaults to AUDIO. If
you do not want other components’ Volume Punch-Through to default to AUDIO,
you must manually program them, using steps 1-4.
Code Retrieval
Once you’ve programmed the remote to control your devices, you may want to
record the codes for future reference. If you used the Direct Code Entry
method, this is easy. Just fi nd
the codes you entered and make a note of them in the boxes below. If you used
one of the Code Search methods to program your remote or if you used the
Direct Entry method but don’t remember the code, you will need to retrieve
each device’s
fi ve-digit code. Retrieving the actual code and writing it down will save you
time if you ever need to program the remote again. If the codes are recorded,
you can use the Direct Entry method to reprogram your remote to control your
devices, which is quick and easy.
-
Press and hold the device key (TV, SAT•CBL•STRM, DVD, AUDIO, VCR•AUX2, DVR•AUX1) whose code you wish to retrieve. The indicator light turns on. Keep pressing the device key.
-
While holding the device key down, press and hold the INFO•OPTIONS key. The indicator light turns off. After holding down both keys for three seconds, the light turns back on.
-
Release both keys. The indicator light remains on.
-
Starting with the number 1 key, press and release each number key on the keypad in the following order: 1-9, then 0. The number that causes the indicator light to blink is the fi rst number of the code. As you fi nd each number of the code, write it down for future reference. Then start with the number 1 key again.
Note: All TV codes start with the number 1; all VCR and DVR codes start with the number 2; all DVD players codes, the number 3; all audio device codes, the number 4; and all satellite receivers, cable boxes, streaming players, and digital TV converters, the number 5. -
Repeat step 4 until you have retrieved all fi ve numbers in the code. After the fi fth number is retrieved, the indicator light blinks briefl y, then turns off.
TIP: To exit the Code Retrieval Mode at any time, press the CLEAR key.
Note: If you press an invalid key during the Code Retrieval process, the remote will not respond. If you do not press a valid Code Retrieval key (TV, SAT•CBL•STRM, DVR•AUX1, AUDIO, VCR•AUX2, INFO•OPTIONS, CLEAR), Code Retrieval times out after 15 seconds. The indicator light blinks four times, and then turns off.
Troubleshooting
Problem: The remote does not operate your device.
- Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding device key (TV, SAT•CBL•STRM, DVD, DVR•AUX1, AUDIO, VCR•AUX2). This tells the remote which device to operate.
- Remove any obstacles between the remote and the device. Make sure you’re aiming the remote at the device’s IR sensor.
- Make sure the batteries are fresh and are properly installed. Replace the batteries with two new AAA batteries, if necessary (see the Battery Installation section).
Problem: The remote can’t be programmed to operate your device.
- If you are testing the remote while programming it, you may be too far away from the device or at a wrong angle. There must be an unobstructed path between the remote and the IR sensor on the device. Move closer and make sure you point the remote at the device you’re trying to control.
- If you’re using the Direct Entry programming method to enter the codes for your brand and the unit is still not functioning properly, try the auto, brand, or manual search method.
- To control combo units, like TV/VCRs or TV/DVDs, you must program the individual corresponding device keys to control each part of the combo unit. Once programmed successfully, the TV key controls the TV functions, and the DVD or VCR•AUX2 key controls the DVD or VCR functions.
- Make sure the batteries are fresh and are properly installed.
Problem: The remote doesn’t perform commands properly.
- Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding device key (TV, SAT•CBL•STRM, DVD, DVR•AUX1, AUDIO, VCR•AUX2). This tells the remote which device to operate.
- Make sure device is ready (for example, the DVD player has a disc loaded).
- You may have pressed an invalid key for the mode the remote is in. If you’re trying to enter a channel number directly, try pressing the ENTER key after entering the channel number as this is a requirement of certain models and brands.
- There is a possibility that a programmed code may only be able to control some of your device features (for example, only turns a device on and off). To confi rm that the device key is programmed with the correct code for maximum functionality, test the device. Attempt to control a variety of the device’s functions with the remote. If some of the features of your devices don’t work, try programming the remote with a different code in the list using the Direct Code Entry Method, until you
find the code that allows the remote to control the majority of your device’s functions. Different codes can provide different levels of functionality.
Problem: The indicator light does not come on when you press a key.
- You may have pressed an invalid key for the mode the remote is in.
- Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding device key (TV, SAT•CBL•STRM, DVD, DVR•AUX1, AUDIO, VCR•AUX2). This tells the remote which device to operate.
- Make sure the batteries are fresh and are properly installed. Replace the batteries with two new AAA batteries, if necessary (see the Battery Installation section).
Problem: The remote will not change channels on device.
- Make sure the remote is in the correct mode by pressing the corresponding device key (TV, SAT•CBL•STRM, DVD, DVR•AUX1, AUDIO, VCR•AUX2). This tells the remote which device to operate.
