About the remote control function
In order to be able to use this watch for remote control of a television or video tape
deck, you must first set the appropriate manufacturer code. The manufacturer code
tells the watch what signals to use for remote control. The Manufacturer Code Table
shows the names of the manufacturers that correspond to each code. For full details
on how to actually set the manufacturer code, see “To set the manufacturer code”.
Some TV or tape deck models may not work properly with this watch, even
though they are made by one of the manufacturers in the Manufacturer Code
Table. Also, you may find that you can control a TV or tape deck using a code
for a manufacturer that is different from the ones in the table. For details on
finding the code you should use, see “How to find the right code”.
Note
• Replacing the battery will cause the remote control data setting (TV/video
manufacturer codes) to be altered. Be sure that you make a note of your codes
before you have the battery replaced.
• There are some manufacturers with more than one code. Try the various codes
available for your equipment to find the one that works best.
• You have to set separate codes for your TV and tape deck, even if they are made by
the same manufacturer.
• You might not be able to use this watch to control models that combine a TV and
tape deck into a single unit, multi-functional TVs that can be used as computer
monitors, or other televisions or tape decks equipped with special functions.
* “(C)” indicates cable box.
