SOURCE: converter box code for my rca universal remote

On the web page link below you will find the RCA Customer Support website page with all the service information for your model RCA 3 device universal remote control model number RCR311S. On this page is a pdf copy of the owners manual. You will need a pdf reader and writer to read the owners manual and a writer to make a copy for your own use.The information you are looking for is on pages 4-12 in the owners manual. I hope this information solves your problem of finding a copy of the remote control owners manual. Thank you for using FixYa and have a nice day! /RcaaccessoriesProductDetail.do?ACTION_TYPE_ID=ACTION_TYPE_PRODUCT_DETAIL&http://www.rcaaccessories.com/rcaaccessoriesACTION_CATEGORY_IDSTR_CATEGORY_UNIVERSAL_REMOTES&ACTION_PRODUCT_ID=RCR311S

SOURCE: Programming RCA converter box remote control with Phil/Mag TV---

Good day,
You should have the instruction guide. If not look below. It's there but look closely for the guide itself and how to increase it's size to readable.

Check on the back of the TV to see if there is a 3 and 4 setting, If so, set to 3.
With nothing connected to the tv, and using the tv's remote, scan for channels. It should come up with only channel 3.
Then using the remote with advanced options, set the the input to either antenna or auto.

Connect the antenna cable to input on the converter box. Using the supplied cable connect the output from the converter box to
the TV. Turn the TV on first, followed by the converter box.
Then follow the instructions.

Not really easy so you'll have to fight your way thru it.
Finding the right setting for the antenna will probably take the most time, requiring a station scan after each adjustment.

SOURCE: Why doesn't my rca universal remote work with my RCA digital TV converter and recorder? model numbers rcr804bfdr and DTA 880

You should program it with set-up codes said for the device type. Set-up (Programming) procedure is too much to type in here, and is not practical and it will differ brand-to-brand remote controls. If you wish to get more; check the sites linked here. It has set-up code list & set-up procedure to many popular brand remote controls. One among it has general set-up codes to check with TVs and other devices are given, in the order of the 'device's brand name list' in alphabetical order. Pull up older posts. Search the sites by type in the brand name to your device in its search box at the top right part of the display window. It will help you to find the document easily.

Search the site by type in the brand name of your device, in the "Search box at the top right of the Home page display" to see the set-up codes to your device, with different brand remote controls.

Programming Notes
• If your device does not respond to the remote after trying all codes listed or your brand is not listed in the code list, use the Auto Code Search method to program your remote.
• Sometimes the first code that "works" with your device may operate only a few functions of your device. There may be another code in the code list that performs more functions. Try other codes from the code list for more functionality.
This is a trial and error procedure; and quiet time consuming. You might have to check different codes said for your device./

Use Universal Remote on DTA

I needed to setup my Vizio TV's remote to control the Cisco DTA 170HD. I was able to get it working by using the Scientific Atlanta code 01877. Follow this link to read the user manual for the Vizio and there are more codes posted in there.
