Need lighted door bell button

Illuminated bell buttons were very popular in the old days of mains transformer driven standard door bells. The bell coil needed quite a lot of current to drive it and so connecting a small lamp across the button contacts did not affect the bell or button operation and allowed enough light to illuminate a small nameplate or just the button for easy location at night.
This allowed standard 2-core bell wire to perform both the function of bell operation and button illumination. For electronic type door bells it illumination of the bell button is needed either a 3 or 4 core cable would be needed or a separate lamp, something perhaps like a welcome home lamp that is operated by a pir.

Freidland was the principle manufacturer in the UK and is still a popular choice for quality equipment but I expect similar equipment was or is available all around the world.

My main remote (family room) is broke how do I program one of the other tv remotes in the house to my family room tv

I will assume that the other remotes are for the same type of receiver as remotes are not always cross compatible. Press and hold the SAT button on top of the remote until all lights across the top illuminate and release. Now key in 0-1 and press the pound key. The SAT button will flash three times and now press the record button. More than likely you should have control again. If not repeat the process as the remote address which we are trying to change could be a number from 1 to 16. The likelihood of the number being grater than 16 is very slim as most technicians are not aware they can be assigned a number higher.

Thanks for using Fix Ya.

Remote has stopped working

purple_mochi

Even though the buttons illuminate on the remote, it may not have sufficient power to actually operate the receiver commands. Replacing the batteries may solve your issue. If it doesn't, then readdressing the remote to the receiver should resolve the issue. I have provided instructions on how to readdress. I hope this helps.

Remote: All Other Remotes
  1. Go to System Info screen
  2. Hold down the SAT button until all mode lights light up.
  3. Enter a number between 1 and 15 using the numeric keypad on the remote.
  4. Press the pound (#) button
  5. Once the SAT button blinks three times, press record. Note: If successful the number selected in step 3 will appear in the System Info screen under Remote Address.

I have a Dish Network 20.0 IR remote. How do I program it to work with my Haier TV?

duckie715

We don't have any codes available for your Haier TV, however, I have provided instructions on how to perform a power scan to locate a code the operate your TV.

http://www.dishnetwork.com/SupportSection/power-scan-instructions

Address To Other Equipment Using Power Scan
  • Remote: All Remotes (except Basic)
    1. With the desired equipment on, press and hold the correct Mode button (SAT) until all mode button backlights illuminate, then release.
    2. Press and release the Power button.
    3. Press the Up button once a second while pointing the remote at the desired equipment. Note: If the code for the equipment comes up, the equipment will power off.
    4. Press the POUND (#) button. If the code entered is valid for the remote, the mode light flashes three times.

Remote contol is the same model shown on site.. the lights come on but remote will not operate receiver

One of two things may be occurring. The first is the remote address on the remote may have changed some how. The way to reset it is to press and hold the SAT button on the top left side of the remote until all lights across the top illuminate. Now key in 01 and press the pound sign on the bottom right of the remote. The SAT button will flash three times. Now try to operate the system using the remote. If you aren't sucessful your remote may be bad or the remote address of the receiver may not be what initially was recorded. Please let me know if you are unsuccessful or sucessful. Thanks for using Fix Ya.
