Learning mode
Press the large power button and keep it pressed. Then briefly press the
“Channel down” button ∨ at the same time. The red LED now flashes permanently,
the FeinControl is in learning mode. To learn-in, first press the desired
target button on the FeinControl. The red LED then lights up permanently. Now
press the button on the source remote control. When the command has been
accepted, the LED flashes again. You can now continue with the next button.
Note: If you do not press any key for 15 seconds, the learning mode switches
off. Previously saved commands are retained. You can restart the learning mode
at any time. You can change or overwrite the saved key assignments as you
wish. All settings are retained even after the battery has been changed. The
choice of buttons is completely up to you. You just need to remember the
assignment if the button on the original remote control is labeled
differently! The learning mode can be ended by holding down the large power
button and then pressing the “Channel down” button ∨. The LED goes out and you
are in the operating mode. Now control your device comfortably with the
FeinControl. The red LED lights up briefly each time the button is pressed.

How it works
The FeinControl can learn the most important keyboard commands of an existing
infrared remote control and then send them like the original. The few and
large buttons make it easy to operate – ideal for senior citizens. The
switchable lighting simplifies operation in the dark. If required, the
FeinControl can copy individual commands from a third remote control. For
example, you can copy the program selection buttons from the TV, but the
volume control from the audio amplifier. You can assign the buttons according
to your own preferences.
Compatibility
The FeinControl remote control only supports infrared commands. However, some
remote controls nowadays use Bluetooth or radio, which are not compatible. An
infrared remote control sends a signal using infrared light. This light cannot
be seen directly by the human eye. However, you can make it visible using a
digital camera, mobile phone camera or camcorder. Check whether your infrared
remote control is sending a signal. Open the camera app on a smartphone. Point
the end of the remote control with the infrared transmitter at the camera
lens. Look into the viewfinder display. Press one of the buttons on the remote
control. When the remote control sends an infrared signal, you will see a
light in the app. This may be a faint pink or white light. If nothing lights
up, it is probably a non-compatible RF or Bluetooth remote control.
