Welcome to the Ultimate 
Control Experience
Your new AT6400 AllTouch® Infrared (IR) 
Universal Remote Control (remote) is a true 
universal remote, functioning as four remotes in 
one. As one example, you can use this remote to 
operate your set-top, your TV, and two other 
devices, such as a DVD player and VCR.

Important Information 
About Your Remote
Your remote is initially programmed to only operate 
your  set-top.  Therefore, you must program the 
remote to operate your TV, VCR, or other devices. 
See  Program the Remote to Control My 
Devices
 to learn how to enter device codes and 
program your remote.

Note: You must use the IR remote within line of 
sight of the set-top to operate the set-top 
correctly. 

How Does A Universal 
Remote Control Work?
You tell the remote which type of device you want 
to operate using the four keys arched across the 
top of the remote. These keys, known as mode 
keys
, are labeled  STB,  TV,  DVD, and AUX.
Each mode key is associated with a specific 
device. As an example, after programming the 
remote, if you want the remote to operate your 
TV, you simply press the TV key. Other keys you 
press on the remote, thereafter, should operate 
your TV. Want to switch the remote to operate a 
different device? Just press the mode key for the 
next device you want to operate. In this guide, you 
will learn which types of devices you can control 
and how to program the remote to control your 
specific devices. 

Where Do I Start?
Before you begin using your remote, complete the 
following initial setup tasks.

Install the Batteries
The remote requires two AA batteries (alkaline 
recommended). A diagram in the battery compartment 
of the remote indicates proper placement of the 
batteries. When batteries are properly installed, the 
light on the remote blinks each time a key is 
pressed.

Visit the Quick Reference Section
Use the Quick Reference section of this guide to 
familiarize yourself with the remote and the functions 
of its various keys. Knowing the function and location 
of the keys on the remote will assist you when you are 
programming the remote.

Program the Remote
To learn how to program your remote, refer to the 
sections  What Devices Can I Control,  What 
Devices Do I Want to Control
, and Program the 
Remote to Control My Devices
 for further 
instructions.

Find a Place to Store Your Remote
Keeping up with one remote is much easier than 
keeping up with four or five remotes. However, it is still 
a good idea to find a storage location for your remote. 
The AT6400 is not a toy. It should be kept out of the 
reach of children under the age of 6 years.

Program the Remote to 
Control My Devices
 
Your remote is initially programmed to only operate 
your set-top. You wil  need to set up the remote to 
operate your other devices using its TV, DVD, and 
AUX modes. The TV key may be programmed to 
operate a standard or high-definition television 
(HDTV). The DVD key may be programmed to 
operate a DVD player. The AUX key may be 
programmed to operate a VCR, a receiver, an 
amplifier, or a Home Theater in a Box (HTIB) 
system. If the remote provides only limited 
functionality for a device, you can look for a code 
that provides more functionality.

Refer to the code tables at the end of this guide to 
locate additional programming codes. 

Note: You have the option to assign some remote 
keys to operate one device type only. For example, 
you may want to assign volume control to the TV only. 
If this is the case, you can reprogram power, volume, 
and channel control using procedures found later in 
this guide.

Assigning a Device Code to a Mode Key
1. Refer to the code tables at the end of this guide to 

locate the information for the device you want to 
program. 

  Note: If your device is not listed, you may be able to 

program the remote using the Auto-Search function. 
Go to What If None of the Codes Work for 
instructions.

2. Turn on the device that you want to assign to a 

mode key.

3. Press and hold the appropriate mode key (TV

DVD, or AUX) on the remote, and then press and 
hold the OK key.

4. Release both keys and the mode keys blink twice.
5. Enter the first 4-digit setup code for the device using 

the numeric keys (0-9) on the remote. The mode key 
blinks three times to indicate that the code entry was 
accepted.

 Notes:
  • When an invalid code is entered, the selected 

  mode key displays a long flash to indicate that 
  you have not entered the code correctly.

  • Should the remote time-out before you complete 

  the code setup, you must start over. This is 
  indicated by one long flash of the red LED.

6. Point the remote at the device, and press POWER 

to test the device.

7. Did the device power off?
 • 

If 

yes, write this code number in the table found 

  in this guide. You may need it again if the device 
  code is accidentally erased.

 • 

If 

no, repeat this procedure from step 3 using a 

  different setup code.

  Note: If none of the codes listed for your brand of 

device operate the device correctly, go to What If 
None of the Codes Work
 for instructions.

8. Repeat this procedure for each mode key you want 

to program.

What If None of the Codes 
Work?
If none of the codes listed for your brand of device 
operate the device correctly, or if your device is not 
listed in the codes table, you can use the Auto-Search 
function to search through the code library for a valid 
code. This section provides procedures for using the 
Auto-Search function to search the code library for 
TV, DVD and AUX mode codes. 

Note: Read the procedures in this section thoroughly 
before beginning. You need to be prepared to 
observe the behavior of the remote.

Auto-Search Features
Consider the following items when using Auto-
Search:

•  The Auto-Search function begins searching from 

the first code.

•  If a valid code is not found, the green backlight blinks 

twice and the remote returns to normal operation.

•  If any other key is pressed except PLAY, ENTER, 

POWER, EXIT, REW, FF, or numeric keys 1 through 
4 (when programming the AUX mode key), the 
mode key displays a long red flash (error message) 
and the remote returns to normal operation.

•  Should the remote time-out before you complete the 

Auto-Search function you must start over. This is 
indicated by one long flash of the red LED.

•  If the device is not listed and the Auto-Search function 

is unable to find a usable code, you may need to use 
the original remote provided with the device.

Reassign Mode Keys
You can reassign a mode key to operate a different 
device. For example, you can reassign the AUX key 
to operate a DVD player or a TV.  If you reassign a 
key, be sure you update the table found in this guide.

Reassigning Mode Keys

(Program Code 944)
1. Press and hold the STB mode key on the remote.
2.  Without releasing the STB key, press and hold the 

OK key.

3. Release both the keys and all mode keys flash 

twice.

4.  Enter the programming code 9 4 4 by pressing the 

numeric keys on the remote. The STB mode key 
blinks twice indicating a successful entry.

5.  Press and release the mode key associated with the 

type of device you want to control, and then press 
and release the mode key that you want to change. 
The newly assigned mode key blinks one time 
indicating a successful entry.

  Some common examples:
  
• To program the AUX key to operate your DVD 

 player, press DVD and then AUX.

  • To program the DVD key to operate your TV, 

 press TV and then DVD.

Change Volume Control
By default, once the TV mode key is programmed with 
a valid code, the volume and mute buttons control 
your TV. These keys adjust the volume of your TV 
higher, lower, or temporarily switch the volume off 
(Mute), regardless of whether the remote is in STB, 
TV, DVD, or AUX mode.

If you prefer, you can choose to have the volume and 
mute buttons always control a different device rather 
than your TV, such as a home theater receiver. (See 
Controlling Volume for One Device below.) Note 
that you must first program one of the mode keys, 
such as AUX, with a valid code for that device.

Alternatively, you can choose to have the volume and 
mute buttons control different devices when the 
remote is in different modes. For example, you might 
want to control the volume on your TV when in TV 
mode, but the volume on your home theater receiver 
when in AUX mode. (See Controlling Volume for 
Different Devices
 below.) Note that not all devices 
have volume controls, so if you choose this option, the 
volume and mute buttons may do nothing in some 
modes, such as STB and DVD.

Controlling Volume for One Device 

(Program Code 955)
1. Press and hold the STB mode key on the remote.
2. Without releasing the STB key, press and hold the 

OK key.

3. Release both keys and all mode keys blink twice.
4. Enter the programming code 9 5 5 by pressing the 

number keys on the remote. The STB mode key 
blinks twice indicating a successful entry.

5. Press and release the mode key for the device you 

want the volume keys to control. For example, if you 
want to control volume through your TV, press and 
release  TV. The selected mode key blinks three 
times to indicate a successful entry.

The volume keys now control only one device 
whether you are in STB, TV, DVD, or AUX mode.

Controlling Volume for Different 

Devices (Program Code 955)
1. Complete steps 1 through 4 of the Controlling 

Volume for One Device procedure.

2. Press and release the Enter key. The STB mode 

key blinks three times to indicate a successful entry. 

After you press the Enter key, the volume keys control 
the device assigned to that mode. For example, in TV 
mode, the volume keys control volume for the TV only.

Notes:
•  If any other key is pressed except the Mode keys and 

the ENTER key, the remote does not accept any 
changes or updates. The STB mode key displays a 
long red flash and the remote returns to normal 
operation.

•  If the remote times out before you complete 

programming volume control, the remote does not 
accept any changes. You must start over from step 
1 of this procedure.

Change Channel Control
The remote is set by default to control channel 
selection on the set-top. You can also program 
channel control to control any of the TV, DVD, or AUX 
mode devices provided the device allows for channel 
control assignment. Or, you can set the channel 
selection control programming to control channels (or 
page up or down) for all of the devices programmed 
in the four mode keys. Otherwise, you can only 
control channels (or page up or down) on a specific 
device, for example, the TV or DVD.

Note: The channel control keys include CH/Page, 
Jump, and the numeric keys 0 through 9. 

Controlling Channels for One Device

(Program Code 966)
1. Press and hold the STB mode key on the remote.
2. Without releasing the STB key, press and hold the 

OK key.

3. Release both keys and all mode keys blink twice.
4. Enter the programming code 9 6 6 by pressing the 

numeric keys on the remote. The STB mode key 
blinks twice to indicate a successful entry.

5. Press and release the mode key for the device you 

want the channel key to control. For example, if you 
want to control channels on your TV, press and 
release TV. The selected mode key blinks three 
times to indicate a successful entry.

procedure, whether in STB, TV, DVD, or AUX mode.

Controlling Channels for Different 

Devices (Program Code 966)
1. Complete steps 1 through 4 of the  Controlling 

Channels for One Device procedure.

2. Press and release the Enter key. The STB mode 

key blinks three times to indicate a successful 
entry. 

After you press the Enter key, the channel key now 
controls the device associated with the mode key you 
select. For example, in TV mode, the channel key 
controls the TV, but in STB mode, the channel key 
controls the set-top.

Notes:
•  If any other key is pressed except the Mode keys 

and the ENTER key, the remote does not accept 
any changes or updates. The  STB mode key 
displays a long red flash and the remote returns to 
normal operation.

•  If the remote times out before you complete 

programming channel selection control, the remote 
does not accept any changes. You must start over 
from step 1 of this procedure.

Change Power Control
The POWER key on the remote is set by default to 
control the power switch on one device at a time, in 
either mode (STB, TV, DVD, or AUX). When in STB 
mode, the remote switches the set-top from OFF 
(standby mode) to ON, or from ON to OFF (standby 
mode). However, you can alternatively program the 
POWER key to control the power switch on up to four 
devices at the same time, instead of controlling one 
device at a time. It is highly recommended that you 
set up the POWER key to turn on and off your set-top 
and your TV at the same time. Turning off the set-top 
saves electricity and extends the life of the box. When 
turned off, the set-top can still record scheduled 
programs on its DVR and perform any other 
necessary functions.

Controlling Power for Multiple 

Devices at Once (Program Code 977)
1. Press and hold the STB mode key on the remote.
2. Without releasing the STB key, press and hold the 

OK key.

3. Release both keys and all mode keys blink twice.
4. Enter the programming code 9 7 7 by pressing the 

numeric keys on the remote. The STB mode key 
blinks twice to indicate a successful entry.

5. For the first device, press the STB key. The STB 

mode key blinks twice.

6. For the second device, press the applicable mode 

key (TV, DVD, or AUX). The selected mode key 
blinks twice.

7. Repeat step 6 for up to two more devices (total of 

four devices).

8. Press the ENTER key to complete the power switch 

control programming. The last selected mode key 
blinks 3 times to indicate a successful entry.

Example: In an example scenario where you press 
only TV in steps 6 and 7, the POWER key controls 
both  the set-top and the TV at the same time, 
regardless of which mode the remote is in (STBTV, 
DVD, or AUX).

Controlling Power for One Device 

at a Time (Program Code 977)
1. Complete steps 1 through 4 of the Controlling 

Power for Multiple Devices at Once procedure.

2. Press the ENTER key to complete the power switch 

control programming. The last selected mode key 
blinks 3 times to indicate a successful entry.

After you select a mode, the POWER key controls the 
device assigned to that mode. For example, in TV 
mode, the remote controls power for the TV only.

Notes:
•  If any other key is pressed except the Mode keys 

and the ENTER key, the remote does not accept 
any changes or updates. The  STB mode key 
displays a long red flash and the remote returns to 
normal operation.

•  If the remote times out before you complete 

programming power switch control, the remote does 
not accept any changes. You must start over from 
step 1 of this procedure.

Quick Reference

LED Indicators 
There are red LEDs underneath each of the four 
mode keys (STB, TV, DVD, and AUX) that flash 
each time a key is pressed to show which device 
the key is currently controlling. 

There are also green LEDs that illuminate several 
keys whenever the remote is in use. They stay 
illuminated for a short time after a key is pressed. 

During programming, if the remote times out before 
you complete the code setup, you will need to start 
over. This is indicated by one long flash of the red 
LED.

What Devices Do I Want to 
Control?
To help you keep track of the devices you want to 
control, list the type of devices you have (including 
brand) in the following table. Then, use the code tables 
at the end of this guide to locate the codes for your 
device. For example, look under TV Group if you 
need to program the remote to operate your TV. If you 
have two devices that use the same key, you must 
reassign the TV, DVD, or the AUX key. The STB key 
cannot be reassigned. Go to Reassign Mode Keys
Otherwise, go to Program the Remote to Control 
My Devices 
for additional instructions.
