3.3 Learning Feature
The URC4912 remote includes a learning feature, allowing you to copy functions directly from your original remote control. This is useful for any specific functions not pre-programmed or for personalizing button assignments.
- Place the URC4912 remote and your original remote on a flat surface, facing each other, with their IR emitters approximately 1-2 inches apart.
- On the URC4912, press and hold the SETUP button (if available, or refer to the full manual for specific button combination to enter learning mode) until the LED indicator blinks twice and then stays lit.
- Press the button on the URC4912 that you wish to program. The LED will blink rapidly.
- On your original remote, press and hold the corresponding function button until the URC4912's LED blinks twice to confirm successful learning.
- Repeat steps 3 and 4 for any other buttons you wish to program.
- To exit learning mode, press the SETUP button again. The LED will turn off.
Note: If the LED shows a long blink, the learning was unsuccessful. Try again, ensuring both remotes are stable and the original remote's batteries are fresh.
