3.4. IR Learning (Infrared Learning)

The BPR3S remote supports IR learning for all its buttons, allowing it to mimic functions from other infrared remote controls (e.g., your TV's original remote).

  1. Place the BPR3S remote and your original IR remote head-to-head, about 1-3 cm apart.
  2. Press and hold the button on the BPR3S remote that you wish to program for 8 seconds. The LED indicator will blink rapidly and then stay solid, indicating it's ready to learn.
  3. While the LED is solid, press the corresponding button on your original IR remote. The LED on the BPR3S remote will blink to confirm successful learning.
  4. Repeat the process for other buttons you wish to program.
  5. To exit IR learning mode, press any button that has not been programmed, or wait for 10 seconds.

3.5. Four Keys IR Isolation

The BPR3S features four dedicated TV buttons that operate independently via IR, even when the remote is in Bluetooth mode. This allows you to control basic TV functions (like power) without disconnecting from your streaming device.

  • The four TV buttons (typically located at the top right) have default Samsung TV IR code values.
  • These buttons support IR learning, allowing you to program them to control your specific TV model.
  • In Bluetooth mode, these four buttons will prioritize sending IR signals if they have been programmed, while other buttons function via Bluetooth.

4. Maintenance

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the remote control. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive materials.

    • Ensure the remote is fully charged.
    • Recalibrate the gyroscope by placing the remote on a flat surface for a few seconds.

  • IR Learning issues:
    • Ensure the BPR3S remote and the original remote are placed very close (1-3 cm) and directly facing each other during the learning process.
    • Repeat the learning steps carefully.
