The instructions are unintelligible. What does it mean by "until the code is flicker" and where on the remote would that be?

If you can't find the codes you can teach it by Puting the remote in to learn setting. An putting the two remotes facing each other and teach what buttons you want to do what. This is what I did.

I would call customer support on the issue. Seems like you received a faulty remote :/

I used all 10 or 11 codes in my book but none of them gave me the control I wanted. Some only turned the power on and off. Some didnt work at all. And the rest gave me power control, and volume control. I was hoping to use the arrows on the remote to control the TV menu and selections, but none of them gave this to me..If you know of a code that does give this full control, let me know, i would really appreciate it.

Sorry that didn't work for you. It was the only number on my remote and it was inside under the bar code. It was hard to read so the first character could be and "8" and not an "S".

First, I would check the battery and ensure that there is power going into the receiver. Also check that the tiny pins are faced in the right direction. If you recently purchased this item, ask for a new remote/exchange/refund. If you can't get one, then order a new remote or receiver...I am pretty sure they are inexpensive. Hope this helps.

Is the receiver connected to the motor yet? Once that is done, you program it the same way you would with the motor (after you wire it, don't put the receiver cover back until the programming is done). Hold the button in the middle down, when the receiver light starts blinking release the button. Hold the remote close to it, press and hold the remote button. I believe the instructions say to hold the button until the receiver light stops flashing, but I held it for a good 30 seconds to be sure. It worked the first time on one of my remotes, but took a few tries on two other remotes until they would work. Hope this helps. Is the receiver connected to the motor yet?

The pre-programmed effects include intermittent cloud cover and lightning effects, so if you select one of them, then you should get all those effects. The preprogrammed buttons are at the bottom of the remote.If you select your lighting with the buttons at the -top- of the remote, those are all steady-on, primarily color effects, that can be adjusted with the color buttons.If the bottom buttons are not producing the various flickering and dimming effects, then either your lighting unit or your remote is defective, and should be returned for replacement.

Mine wouldn't do the auto program or the one where you point the old one at it and press all the buttons. I had to do it one button at a time, manually. As to how that works, I'm sorry but I can't remember exactly. I just remember fighting with the thing for a long time. This remote has now become nearly useless, as the main select button has to be mashed hard to get it to react, and the up/down selector ring is also barely functioning. It has also become very position sensitive and has to be pointed directly at the Dish box to work, and is slow even then. I have bought a new Sony RM-VLZ620 to replace it. Sorry I was not more help. If I knew then what I know now about the URC, I would have sent it back. You should too.

Thanks for the info. In case you were able to configure successfully, please do let us knw... Might come in handy, in case the remote falters. I've not had any issues with the remote ever since I started using it... Hope it stays the same... :)

I just did this yesterday. Follow the receiver instructions, not the remote instructions. Simply press the button on the receiver that corresponds to the channel you wish to program. Hold this button until the amber light stays lit. You will only need to hold it for three to five seconds. With the amber light on solid, press and hold the button you wish to program on your remote. When the amber light on the receiver flashes and goes out, you are done. Try out the newly programmed remote. Hope this helps.

I no longer have my instructions. I programmed it but it never worked at all so I threw it out. Sorry.

I'm having the same problem. Do you know if you unplugged the unit while it was on? This happened with mine, and it is the only thing I can think of that happened to it. It still doesn't answer the question of whether replacing the remote will help, unfortunately.
