Why would you want to "open" it?
If it is not working, take it to the nearest Shaw retail store.
Shaw will replace it, no questions asked.

SOURCE: Giant Omnitech remote codes

You can find the remote control codes for different brands of devices from
http://www.hifi-remote.com/ofa/codes-tv.shtml#tv

If none of the codes work then we have two other solutions:

1. Searching For Your Code

If you have tried all of the set-up codes for your brand of equipment ,or your brand is not listed, and you are still not able to get the unit to respond, try the following procedure to search for your code.
If you don't find a code that works, the remote will flash four times when you reach the end of all the codes for this device type.

  1. PRESS the button for the device you want to program, (TV, VCR, CABLE, etc.), then RELEASE.
  2. PRESS and HOLD the SETUP button until the red LED flashes twice, then RELEASE.
  3. ENTER 9-9-1 (two blinks on the remote)
  4. ALTERNATE slowly between the POWER key and the DEVICE (TV, VCR, CABLE, etc.) button until your device turns off. (On VCR, LD, and CD players use PLAY instead of POWER)
    Make sure that the remote is pointed at your device during the search, You may have to press this sequences of buttons up to 100 times to search the entire library of codes.
  5. When your device turns OFF, PRESS the SETUP button and RELEASE it to lock in the code for your device.

2. Learn the buttons from the original

Line up your original remote and the head-to-head before completing the following steps.
  1. PRESS and HOLD the SETUP button until the red LED flashes twice.
  2. PRESS 9 - 7 - 5, the red LED will flash twice.
  3. PRESS the DEVICE key where you wish to learn the function. The next 3 steps must be completed within 10 seconds.
  4. PRESS the button that will receive the learned function, the LED will flash rapidly.
  5. PRESS the button on the original remote to be learned.

Now you can repeat steps 3 through 5 to learn other functions onto other keys or press and hold SETUP until the Cinema's red light flashes twice to lock in your new feature. (If the red light does not blink twice, stop and repeat steps through 6).
To test the new feature, press and release the device key in which the new feature was learned followed by the key on which the feature was learned

I'm a customer of HDPVR with Shaw services! I have a Shaw Remote and I can't record or access previous recordings ! Other aspects of the Remote works (volume channels )How do I return to the services I pay...

Disconnect the PVR from the electrical power.
Reconnect it.
Wait 10 minutes, while it "reloads" its programming.
Press LIST. If your recordings are not showing up,
it's possible that the disk-drive inside the PVR has failed.

Telephone Shaw to get free technical support.

Shaw pvr expander not working

Take your Shaw remote control.
Press SETTINGS.
Use the LEFT/RIGHT keys to highlight PVR.
Click OK.
Use the LEFT/RIGHT/UP/DOWN keys to highlight PVR HISTORY.
Click OK.
Scroll through the entries, looking for any "hardware failed" or "hardware error" messages -- finding any implies a failing disk-drive inside the Expander.
Need more help? Telephone Shaw, and ask for "technical support" for TV/PVR.

Can't see image with shaw pvr on toshiba 32hl57

I presume you followed the instructions in the TV manual during hookup and did not hook up with the units powered up and did select the correct input with the remote?

If you have another unit that uses HDMI try a direct hookup with it to see if the HDMI input is working.

HDMI units do not like being hooked up when units involved are powered up and on--seen more than a few where this was the problem and it is worth a try if the Owner Manual does not help you.

Tv code

I have an Acer 3720A and Shaw's Atlas PVR remote. I used the "scan feature" to find that code "0704" worked for me (at least for power and volume - which are all I need).

Whether or not this works for you depends on the specific Acer TV you have and possibly the model of "shaw" remote. Many Shaw remotes actually come from Universal Electronics (www.urcsupport.com) and they do not have Acer TV's in their DB. Acer's own site indicates they cannot provide a specific code (at least for my model of TV) and to try the remote's scan feature - which is how I ended up with my solution.

Hope this helps.
