Welcome to the Ultimate Control Experience Your new AT8560 AllTouch Universal Remote Control (remote) is a true universal remote, functioning as fi ve remotes in one. As one example, you can use this remote to operate your TV, VCR, DVD player, set-top, and receiver.
Keeping up with one remote is much easier than keeping up with fi ve remotes. However, it is still a good idea to fi nd a storage location for your remote. The AT8560 is not a toy. It should be kept out of the reach of children under the age of 6 years.

AUX ..receivers, tuners, and Home Theatre in a Box (HTIB) Regarding Non-Responsive Modes The AT8560 is pre-programmed with the TV, VCR, and AUX keys set to an inactive (non-responsive) mode. After you program these keys on the remote control, you can return them to the non-responsive mode by using the specifi c non-responsive mode code found in the Code Tables, later in this guide.
Reassign Mode Keys With the AT8560, you can reassign a mode key to operate a diff erent device. For example, you can reassign the AUX key to operate a receiver, a tuner, or a Home Theatre in a Box system.
Program the Remote to Control My Devices Your remote is initially programmed to only operate your set-top. The Volume and Mute keys will not work until a TV code is programmed into the remote. If the remote provides only limited functionality for a device, you can look for a code that provides more functionality.
What If None of the Codes Work? If none of the codes listed for your brand of device operate the device correctly, you can search through the code library for a valid code. Improving Your Reaction Time When you search the code library, you need to be ready to press SELECT as soon as the remote turns off your device.
Which Code Worked? Find out which code programmed the mode key to control your device. Finding the Code That Worked (Program Code 9 9 0) 1. Press and hold SELECT and the appropriate mode key (CBL, TV, VCR, DVD, or AUX) until all mode keys blink twice. 2.
Change Power Control Your remote is originally programmed in one of the following ways: • The remote controls power for only one device at a time. For example, in CBL mode the POWER key controls the set-top only. However, in TV mode, the POWER key controls the TV only.

Want An Example? If you want to control power for the TV and the set-top at the same time, you would do the following: 1. Press and hold SELECT and CBL until all mode keys blink twice. 2. Press 9 9 8. The CBL key blinks twice. 3.
Controlling Volume for One Device (Program Code 9 9 3) Note: If you want to assign volume control to a Cisco set-top, complete the following prerequisite steps. Press SETTINGS to access the General Settings on-screen menu.
Change Channel Control Your remote is originally programmed in one of the following ways: • The remote controls channels for a single device, such as the set-top, whether the remote is in CBL, VCR, DVD, or TV mode. The AUX mode always retains separate channel control.
Change VCR/VOD Programming Your remote is originally programmed in one of the following ways: • The Rewind, Play, Fast Forward, Stop, Pause, and Record keys (the transport keys) are programmed, by default, to transmit the codes for the Explorer 8000 series Home Entertainment Server video-on-demand (VOD) or digital video recorder (DVR) functions when in Cable (CBL) mode.
Put It Back the Way I Got It Return specifi c advanced functions or all advanced functions back to their original settings. Choose the procedure that fi ts your needs. Important: Your service provider may have programmed the dual power control feature for your convenience.
Change On Demand Programming The OnDemand key on the remote allows you to select various On Demand control sequences. By default, the OnDemand key sends On Demand requests in CBL mode only. However, you can also program the OnDemand key on the remote to send out an additional three- or four-digit number key sequence in order to select a specifi c channel on your set-top.

Restoring Default On Demand Settings (Program Code 9 9 6) 1. Press and hold CBL and SELECT until all mode keys blink twice. 2. Press 9 9 6. The CBL LED blinks twice. 3. Press SELECT to reset the On Demand control to the default code. Notes: •...
Code Tables If the remote does not recognize your device, you can fi nd codes for your device by brand. With combination devices (such as a TV with a built-in DVD player), you have separate codes for each device component. Therefore, for ease of use, the combination device codes are listed fi rst.
