3.1 Direct control code entry using the enclosed list
Example: setting to control a Panasonic television set:
3.1.1 The enclosed list gives, for example, the Panasonic
Code 152.
Please make sure you have selected the correct list for
television sets (TV).
3.1.2 To prepare code entry, keep the
pressed until the lamp (LED) lights constantly.
3.1.3 Then press the required appliance button, e.g.
and the number buttons (e.g. 1 5 2) in sequence.
3.1.4 Once the numbers have been entered the button lamp
goes out and the remote control is ready to control your
appliance.
3.1.5 Finally, test the control code setting by trying to control (in
this example) your television set. If it does not work at all or not
correctly try a different code from the list or the code search (see
below).
3.1.6 How to set the remote control for other appliances is
described in part 3.1. ff. Instead of the TV appliance button,
press another button, e.g. VCR, SAT, CD, CBL, HOME).
Vivanco VivControl remote controls are TV+ remote controls, i.e.
under TV you can only set television sets or video projectors,
but any other appliance under the other appliance buttons.
The button decriptions SAT, ASAT (analog sat receiver), DSAT
(digital sat receiver), VCR, etc. are intended only for easier
orientation.
Example: Under the VCR appliance button you can also enter a
CD code and control your CD player.
3.2 Code search
If the brand of your appliance is not in the list or none of the
codes given fits, we recommend a code search.
3.2.1 Slow code search
3.2.1.1 Switch on the appliance to be controlled. Program is
running.
3.2.1.2 Keep the SETUP button pressed until the lamp
lights constantly in one of the appliance buttons.
3.2.1.3 Press the required appliance button, e.g.
3.2.1.4 Press the ON/OFF (appliance on/off) button once
briefly.
3.2.1.5 Press the ON/OFF (appliance on/off) or CHAN+
(next channel) button repeatedly until the appliance, e.g. your
satellite receiver, reacts.
Each time a button is pressed the lamp goes out briefly then
comes back on to confirm.
If no button is pressed, the VivControl automatically continues to
search by sending a signal to your appliance every 3 seconds.
If you notice the reaction of your appliance too late and the next
code has already been emitted you can go back by pressing
CHAN-. If your appliance has switched itself off you must switch
it back on again, e.g. on the appliance or with the original remote
control, to continue searching.
3.2.2 When your appliance reacts, simply press the arrow key
(Enter) and end the search.
3.2.3 To test whether the right setting has been found, simply
press a few buttons on the VivControl and check whether the
functions work correctly. If everything is OK you can now set the
VivControl for the second appliance.
If nothing happens or some of the buttons do not work correctly
you must let the VivControl continue to search for the correct
setting as described starting in 3.2.1.
The VivControl Zap 2 continues with the search at the point
where you ended the search with . When the end of the code
list is reached the search stops automatically. The remote
control blinks quickly several times. The code last confirmed with
remains stored.
The research backwards always ends automatically at the code
last confirmed.
3.2.4 Searching by brand

brand. This is done as follows:

lights constantly in one of the appliance buttons.

appliances. Then continue as described in 3.2.1.4.
