Program Your Remote
Your new remote control comes from the factory ready to control your FiOS
TV service. However,
VOL+, VOL- and Mute will not work until you program
the remote with the brand of TV you have. In addition to your STB and TV,
your remote can also control two additional devices, such as a DVD player
and an audio receiver.
Getting Started with Your Remote
Install Batteries
Your remote requires two AA batteries. The first set is included and should
last up to six months under normal usage.
To test if the batteries have been installed correctly, press a few keys on the
remote. One of the Device Keys (
DVD, AUX, TV, STB) on the top of the
remote will flash briefly when you press a key.
You can confirm communication with the Set Top Box (STB) as a red light
will flash on the front panel of the STB when it accepts a command.
Get to Know Your Remote
Your remote is now ready to control your FiOS TV Set Top Box (STB).
To start, try the following:
Turn on your TV.
Press the
STB key on the top of the remote to make sure you are in
FiOS TV
STB MODE.
Press the
CH+ key to see the next higher channel.
Press
5 - 0 then OK to tune to channel 50.
Press
Last to return to the last channel.
Press
Info to see information about the current program. Press Exit to
return to TV watching.
Press
Guide to see a list of TV programs. Press Exit to return to
TV watching.
Press the
Menu key to launch the FiOS TV Main Menu. From the Main
Menu, you can access all the features of your FiOS TV service.

This is called programming the remote. If you dont want to control devices
other than your FiOS TV STB, you do not need to program the remote.
How to Program Your Remote
We will use the example of programming your remote to control a TV.
The procedure is the same for DVD players and audio receivers.
1. Look up your TVs brand in the TV code listing that starts on page 12.
2. Circle the first 4-digit number displayed for your brand of TV.
3. Turn on your TV.
4. Press and hold the
TV key.
5. While holding down the
TV key, press the OK key.
6. Release both keys. The Device Keys will blink twice.
7. Enter the 4-digit TV code you circled. The TV key will blink
three times.
8. To test to see if this was the correct code, point the remote at your
TV and press
Power. If the TV turns off, you have successfully
programmed your remote.
9. If the TV does not turn off, repeat all the steps using the next code in
the list.
10. For future reference, write down the code that worked, in case you
must reprogram your remote.
NOTE: If some of the keys on the remote do not operate your TV as you
would expect, then you can try the next code in the list for your brand of TV.
To program the remote to control a VCR or DVD player, press and hold
the
DVD key, instead of the TV key, in steps 4 and 5. To program an audio
receiver, press and hold
AUX instead. You can assign a DVD or VCR to the
DVD key. The AUX key is reserved for audio receivers, amplifiers and VCRs.
NOTE: The remote will exit the programming mode after 20 seconds if no
key is pressed.
What if None of the Codes Worked?
If none of the codes worked, try the following procedure. (As before, we will
use the example of a TV. For other devices, use the appropriate Device Key
instead of the TV key, in steps 2 and 3.)
1. Turn on your TV.
2. Press and hold the
TV key.
3. While holding down the
TV key, press the OK key.
4. Release both keys. The Device Keys will blink twice.
5. Press
9 - 2 - 2.
6. Point the remote at the TV.
7. Press .
8. Press . Every time you press , the remote sends out a new
power-off command to the TV. Keep pressing until the TV turns
off. (You can press to go back.)
9. When the TV turns off, you have found the right code. Press
OK to
store this code.
There are over 200 TV and DVD codes. The most common codes
are tried first, but you may still need to press over 200 times to find the
right code. If you reach the end of the list of codes, the entire remote will
flash twice and return to normal operation. You can exit programming at any
time by pressing
Exit.
