Charter UR4U-MDVR-CHD2 Operating Instructions
A. Quick Setup Method
It’s easy to program the remote control to
operate your TV. Simply press the number
buttons 0 through 9 that your TV brand is
assigned to using the following four steps.
STEP1 Manually turn on the TV you wish to
program.
STEP2 Press and hold simultaneously for 3
seconds both the TV and A (Yellow)
buttons or B (Blue) buttons, based on
the column your TV brand is assigned
to. The TV button LED light will turn on
for 30 seconds confirming that you are
in the program mode.
STEP3 While the TV button LED is on, point the
remote control at the TV and press the
number button assigned to your TV
brand as shown in the table (e.g. for
Sharp TV, button 5 ). The TV should turn
off. If it does not, press the same
number button repeatedly until the TV
turns off.
*Note : The remote will exit the programming
mode automatically if it does not have
matching codes and the LED will turn off.
STEP4 Once the TV has turned off, press the TV
button once again to save the code. The
remote control is now ready to control
your TV.
Repeat the above steps for all other components
(TV, DVD, etc.)
*Note : If the matching code could not be found
in STEP3, use 3-Digit Code Method or
Auto Search Method.

TRANSPORT KEYS
There are three ways you can program your remote control:
* Quick Setup Method
* 3-Digit Code Method
* Auto Search Method
Quick Setup Method is a unique feature that enables the fastest and easiest setup by using a one digit
code. This is the quickest way to set up devices made by popular manufacturers.
3-Digit Code Method allows you to setup by entering 3-digit code numbers that correspond to a
particular Component’s manufacturer/brand, so it’s the fastest and easiest of the two methods. (Code
Tables are on the backside of this Instruction Sheet.)
Auto Search Method scans through all the codes in the remote control, one at a time.
IMPORTANT SETUP NOTES:
This pertains to all programming steps. When you are in setup mode in each component, a component
LED will light up for 30 seconds. If you do not press a button within 30 seconds, the LED light will turn off
and exit setup mode and you will need to start over.
When programming a combo unit, program as a DVD first.
B. 3-Digit Code Method
STEP1 Turn on the Component you want to
program (TV, DVD or AUX) .
STEP2 Press the [COMPONENT] button (TV,
DVD or AUX) to be programmed and
[OK/SEL] button simultaneously for 3
seconds. The Component LED will light
for 30 seconds indicating the unit is
ready to be programmed.
STEP3 Point the remote control toward the
Component and enter the 3-digit code
number assigned to your brand.
*Note : If the 3-digit code number you just
entered is correct, the Component will
turn Off. If it did not turn Off, continue
entering code numbers listed for that
brand until the Component turns Off.
STEP4 After you’ve entered the correct code
number and the Component has turned
Off, press the [POWER] button to turn
the Component back On. Now it’s time
to test the VOLUME and MUTE buttons
for the TV (or PLAY and STOP buttons
for DVD) to make sure they all work. If
any of the functions do not work as
they should, repeat from STEP 3 using
the next 3-digit code number listed for
that brand.
STEP5 Once you have found the correct 3-
digit code, save it by pressing the same
[COMPONENT] button one more time.
The Component LED light will blink
twice to confirm that the code was
successfully stored.
Now, program the rest of your Components by
repeating STEPS 1-5.
*Note : If the Pre-Programmed Method did
not work, or if the Code Tables do not
list your Component brand, use the
Auto Search Method as explained in
Section C.
C. Auto Search Method
STEP1 Turn on the Component you want to
program (TV, DVD or AUX).
STEP2 Press the [COMPONENT] button (TV,
DVD or AUX) to be programmed and
[OK/SEL] button simultaneously for 3
seconds. The Component LED will light
for 30 seconds indicating the unit is
ready to be programmed.
STEP3 Point the remote toward the
Component and press the [CH
5] or
[CH
6] button one step at a time or
keep it pressed. The remote will emit a
series of ON/OFF commands. Release
the [CH
5] or [CH6] button as soon as
the Component turns Off.
STEP4 Test functions. (Same as for 3-Digit Code
Programming Method - Section B). If any
of the functions do not work as they
should, repeat from STEP 3 using [CH
5]
or [CH
6] buttons to find the correct code.
STEP5 Save the code. (Same as for 3-Digit Code
Programming Method - Section B).
Now, repeat the Auto Search Method for those
Components you could not program earlier with the
Pre-Programmed Method.
D. Finding a Component Button’s
Setup Code Number
If you used the Auto Search Method to program a
Component, you may not know what the correct code
number is. Here is a way for you to identify the code
number, so you can record it for future reference.
STEP1 Press the [COMPONENT] button (TV, DVD or
AUX) you want to verify and the [OK/SEL]
button simultaneously for 3 seconds. The
Component LED will light for 30 seconds.
STEP2 Press the [INFO] button and count the
number of times the Component LED light
blinks. This number indicates the first digit
of the code, followed by the second and
third, each separated by a one second
pause when the LED will turn off.
*Note : 10 blinks represents the number zero.
Example : One blink, (pause), eight blinks, (pause) and
three blinks, indicates code number 183.
