Learn Feature

Understanding the Learn feature

What is the Learn feature?
The Learn feature captures remote commands from your television remote, and teaches your bar speaker to operate when these commands are pressed. Power, volume and mute are a few examples of commands that the bar speaker can learn.

Why use the Learn feature?
Teaching the bar speaker remote commands will reduce the number of remotes needed, save time searching for remote codes, and improve the ease of operation.

Using the Learn Feature

With the power Off, press the Learn button on the unit.
An indicator will flicker red.
Press the button you desire to be learned on the included remote.
For example: Volume+
The red light will continue to flicker, and another indicator will display a blue light.
Press the corresponding button on your remote.
The red light will continue to flicker, and another indicator will display a green light.
Press the Learn button on the unit.
The programmed button on your remote will now be able to control your sound bar.

Note: It is necessary to program each button i.e. channel and volume + and – separately.
To start over, press and hold the learn key for over 3 seconds. If the sound bar has failed to learn a command, all the LED indicators will display a light for two seconds to signal the learning function has been reset.
Note: Not all functions of the sound bar will be available through your own remote control, such as bass and treble. Use the included remote for these functions.
Note: While ITB382B is able to learn most IR protocols, not all can be programmed.
