Panasonic problem my problem is when i put on my player is when i can not control anything on the control remote it says set1 so i can control it with my remote

• Hi, I can help.

• somehow your DVD recorder and the remote are using different codes. So you just want to get them both on "code 1."

• To do this press and hold the "ENTER" and "1" buttons on the remote for 5 seconds and your remote and DVD recorder with both operate on code 1. At this point your remote will again work as normally.

• If you have any comment please feel free to leave them here.
• Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa.

emote command mode is different to the unit. Try resetting the remote by doing the following;

While unit is on, but no discs loaded or playing, remove the batteries from the remote (as if you were replacing them), press any button on the remote to clear its buffer, then, if the batteries you removed are OK, re-insert them. Point remote at the player, press and hold 1 and ENTER/OK buttons together for 10 seconds, then release. This should restore your remote's command to the original default mode, and it should control the player fully.

Panasonic and some SONY units operate on this principle with remote command modes (these differ between models). RC1 / DVD1 / SET1 is usually the default.

Very easy to do, takes a few seconds, and costs nothing.

If unit display set2 (the number that display set1, set2, or set3), hold down 2 and enter button at the same time while unit is on for more than 6 second.

If you press and hold(ENTER)and the button number 1 for 5 seconds this should reset the r/control.Hope this helps

My remote is not working. When I press a button, I get the following message on my unit: U12, U30, SET #, CHK REMOTE #, or RC #. What can I do to fix this? The message displayed means that the remote control and unit are not communicating and the remote needs to be programmed. To program the remote, press and hold the same number that is displaying on the unit and the [ENTER] or [OK] button for more than 2 seconds. For example, if the unit displays “SET 2”, press and hold [2] and [ENTER] or [OK] for more than 2 seconds.

Press ENTER and number 1 on remote together for at least two seconds to restore control.

Press and hold ENTER and 1 on the remote for at least two seconds and you should be home and dry!

Good luck!

Question (s): The remote control for my DVD recorder has stopped working. Every time I press a button, the display says "CHK REMOTE 1", "RC1" or "SET1". What is wrong? Answer/Comments: Your DVD recorder remote control can be programmed (with different codes), so it can be used with multiple Panasonic DVD players. When you press a button and the display shows [CHK REMOTE #] or [RC#] or [SET#] it means that the DVD recorder and the remote control are not set to the same code.To set the remote control code to that of the DVD recorder, press and hold [ENTER] as well as the corresponding code number on the display (1, 2 or 3) at the same time for more than 2 seconds.

1. The owner's manual is available online:

Download the manual under Operating Instructions.

2. To remedy "SET1" problem, Press 1 & Enter at the same time.

Hope this helps
