If none ofthe codes for the device and brand you select work, use thisfeature to instruct PowerTouch how to operate the device.You can also use this feature to modify commands for codesthat do work or even to add extra functionality to thosecodes.For example, let’s say the basic control codes for your VCRare Power, Play, Rewind, Fast Forward, Pause, Channel andRecord. Let’s also say that your VCR has an OSD (On ScreenDisplay) menu that is not part of the default code set youchose. You can use your VCR’s remote to teach PowerTouchto access that menu.To teach PowerTouch new commands:1. Follow the steps under “How Do I Identify Devices?” onpage␣ 37.2. Touch to open the Function Change menu:3. Select the button to be programmed by learning (In-clude “Empty 1 to Empty 8”).You will be able to access these new commands by touch-ing More or the button you assign on any device controlscreen.
