From the Manufacturer URC-A6 Universal Remote: Simplify Control of Your Home Theater When you're upgrading your home theater, you'll quickly notice that every new component such as a Blu-ray player or new receiver comes with yet another remote control. That can be a lot of clutter on your coffee table. Do you really need six or seven remotes to control your home theater? Replace up to six individual remotes with a single simple and versatile remote Universal Remote Control's consumer line of remote controls gives you the control you're looking for in an easy-to-use and surprisingly affordable package. Whether your home theater has two components or twenty, URC can provide a control solution that makes it easy to spend more time enjoying your home theater and less time figuring out which button to press. For extensive, complex home theater systems, URC provides sophisticated custom solutions. But if you are looking for the easiest way to replace all of those old remotes with a simple and versatile single remote, look no further. Let the URC-A6 make your home entertainment experience easier and more fun. URC Consumer remote controls: helping you control the experience, one component at a time. Replace Up to Six Remotes with One URC-A6 Perfect for DIY, the URC-A6 replaces up to six individual remote controls in an affordable, user-friendly design and has a dedicated "Light" control button. URC's A6 remote works with thousands of A/V devices and has multiple set-up options, including the unique "Quick Set-up" that does almost all of the work for you. You can also use device auto-search and a "Learning" feature for flexible setup applications. Program up to five channels on each of the four "My Favorites" buttons Simplify Controlling Your Home Theater with MacroPower and Favorite Channels In addition to being a great replacement for up to six remote controls, the URC-A6 delivers much more. MacroPower is a very useful way to make a lot of things happen with one button push. For example, in most home theaters, to watch television, the user must turn on the TV, then turn on the Cable Box or the Satellite Receiver, then turn on the Surround Sound system for sound. Instead of pressing all of those buttons one at a time, MacroPower enables you to turn on all of these components, in the sequence you want, with one button push. The A6 uses one-button "Macros" to allow you turn on your TV, cable box, DVD player and surround sound system all at the same time with the press of one button. The URC-A6 has six Macro buttons (POWER, SYSTEM OFF, A, B, C, D) that are designed to store up to 20 commands in each button. Pressing any one of the Macro buttons, or automated activity, will send out the series of commands that are stored in that particular button. The URC-A6 also comes equipped with four customizable "My Favorites" buttons. You can program up to five favorite channels per button. And with the URC-A6's ability to control most IR (Infrared) operated lights, you'll never have to get off the couch to set the mood for family movie night. "Couch Mode" The A6 remote is designed to automatically turn itself off if a button is pressed for more than 30 seconds. This prevents battery power from being depleted should the remote accidentally slip between the couch cushions. SimpleSound Total System Volume SimpleSound is one of the most exciting features of the URC-A6. It gives you total volume control over ALL the components in your system, even those that do not have built--in volume control, such as TiVO, DVD player, or VCR. SimpleSound saves you the hassle and inconvenience of constantly switching between component modes just to control volume. You can define which device in your system will be used to deliver sound-- In a basic system, the sound may come from your TV speaker. In a more advanced system, the sound may come from your audio components (such as a Surround Sound Receiver or Home Theatre system). Channel Control "Punch Through" This "Punch Through" enables you to program the URC-A6 so that either the Cable or TV Channel Controls (CHANNEL UP, DOWN, LAST, CHANNEL NUMBERS 0-9, +10 and ENTER) will also operate in other component modes on the remote control. Transport Control "Punch Through" This "Punch Through" enables you to program the URC-A6 so that DVD or DVR Transport Controls (PLAY, STOP, FF, REW, PAUSE, SKIP and RECORD) will also operate in other component modes on the remote control. By learning from other remotes the URC-A6 grows with your home theater SD (On-Screen Display) Control "Punch Through" This "Punch Through" enables you to program the URC-A6 so that CBL or DVD OSD Controls (MENU, GUIDE, INFO, EXIT, SEL and 4 Cursor Controls) will also operate in other component modes on the remote control. Learning Mode This feature will allow you to literally teach the URC-A6 commands from other remote controls; when the remote is in learning mode, you can line the two remotes facing each other and transfer commands with just a few buttons presses. Press any button on the A6 remote that you want to teach a command to. For example, if you want to teach the MUTE button on the A6 remote the TV Mute command from the other remote, first press the MUTE button on the A6 remote and the TV component button LED light will blink once indicating that the A6 remote is ready to learn the command. This way, your remote is never obsolete--the URC-A6 grows with your home theater.
