This guide provides immediate, step-by-step instructions for programming your One For All remote, averting endless channel surfing frustration and device incompatibility nightmares.
Programming with Code Search
Many One For All remotes offer a code search function. This method systematically cycles through potential codes for your device.
Step 1: Power On and Prepare
Manually power on the device you wish to control (TV, DVD player, etc.). Point the remote towards the device.
Press and hold the SETUP button until the red indicator light stays on.
Step 2: Enter Code Search Mode
Press 9-9-1. The indicator light will flash twice.
Press the POWER button repeatedly.
Release the POWER button as soon as the device turns off. If it doesn't turn off after several attempts, try a different programming method.
Step 3: Lock in the Code
Press the SETUP button to save the code. The indicator light will flash twice to confirm.
Test the remote's functions (volume, channel, etc.) to ensure proper control. If functions don't work, repeat the process.
Programming with Direct Code Entry
This method requires you to find the specific code for your device brand in the One For All code list.
Step 1: Locate Your Code
Consult the One For All website or the manual included with your remote to find the code list.
Identify the code corresponding to your device's brand and type (e.g., Sony TV, Samsung DVD player).
Step 2: Enter the Code
Manually power on the device you wish to control.
Press and hold the SETUP button until the red indicator light stays on.
Step 3: Input the Code
Enter the four-digit code using the number buttons on the remote. The indicator light will flash twice after a valid code is entered.
If the light does not flash twice, re-enter the code. The indicator should turn off if the code is invalid.
Step 4: Test and Verify
Point the remote at the device and press the POWER button.
If the device turns off, the code is correct. Press the same device button (TV, DVD, etc.) to save the setting.
If the device does not turn off, repeat the process with the next code listed for your device brand. Start again from step 2.
Programming with Learning Feature (If Available)
Some advanced One For All remotes have a learning feature. The learning feature allows them to "learn" commands from your original remote.
Step 1: Preparation
Place the One For All remote and your original remote on a flat surface, close to each other. Ensure both remotes have fresh batteries.
The remotes must be pointing at each other.
Step 2: Enter Learning Mode
Press and hold the SETUP button until the indicator light stays on.
Press 9-7-5. The indicator light will flash twice. This puts the remote in learning mode.
Step 3: Learn the Commands
Press the button on the One For All remote that you want to teach (e.g., POWER button).
Press the corresponding button on the original remote. The indicator light on the One For All remote will flash once, then stay on.
Repeat this process for each button you want to teach.
Step 4: Save and Exit
After learning all the desired commands, press and hold the SETUP button until the indicator light turns off.
Test all the learned buttons to ensure they function correctly.
Troubleshooting
Remote not responding: Ensure fresh batteries are installed correctly.
Incorrect code: Double-check the code list for the correct code for your device. Try alternative codes for your brand.
Learning feature not working: Ensure the remotes are close enough and pointing at each other. Check battery life in both remotes.
