Volume Up, Volume Down and Channel Up, Channel Down buttons are switch accessible. Just plug in your own switch or switches into the jacks, and the buttons on the remote will be activated.
For example, if your adapted TV remote has a switch plugged into the “channel up” jack, then every time you press the external capability switch, the channel will increase by one.
It is a simple process to program this learning remote to work your TV, DVD or other infrared controlled appliance; detailed instructions enclosed.
Not limited to Power, Channel Up, Channel Down
Virtually any home appliance that has an infrared remote can be programmed into the Learning Infrared TV Controller. So it can also be used to control a CD player, radio or MP3 player. For a music player the three switches could be programmed to activate Play/Pause, Track Forward and Track Back.
