  • Page 38: Learning Ir Codes

    The iPronto RC contains a huge database that contains numerous IR codes for all kinds of devices. The iPronto RC is set up by default to operate Philips and compatible devices.

  • Page 39 The Remote Control The iPronto RC will learn the IR code from the conventional RC. You can learn all soft buttons and hard buttons on the iPronto. Note The function of the hard buttons is always device-independent. This means that a hard button always executes the same action, no matter what device is active.
