Learning Method You can program the MX-600 to operate a device by "teaching" the correct commands to device buttons on the main screen menu, the two sub-pages within each device button, 31 buttons and the joystick located in the middle of the remote control. The MX-600 learns these commands by receiving infrared signals directly from your existing remote controls. The MX-600 receives these signals through its learning eye, located at the top of the unit.

Tip: Function buttons are any buttons that can be assigned a command to control a particular action for your device. Commonly used function buttons include the two pages of sub-commands within each of the 10 devices, channel up and down, volume up and down, menu, guide, exit, info, 0-9, and the joystick.

If the remote control fails to learn a function after the first try:
Keep the remotes stable by placing them on a flat surface.
Make sure the original remote is pointed at the learning
eye at the top end of the case and is not at an angle.
Make sure both remotes’ batteries aren't low.
Avoid programming the MX-600 under bright lighting. It
can interfere with the infrared signals.
Try again. Sometimes the second or third attempt works.
