4-5 Programming the Remote Control to Operate Other Components
(Optional)
In addition to controlling the TracVision A5 receiver, the remote control may be programmed to operate other vehicle components, such as the TV or VCR. To program the remote control, choose either of the following programming options:
Option 1 - Code Scanning (see page 4.10)
Option 2 - Code Entry (see page 4.11)
To use the code entry method, you’ll need to know the correct manufacturer’s device codes for each component you want to operate. Code scanning may be more timeconsuming, but you don’t need to know manufacturer’s control codes.

TracVision A5 Installation Guide
Option 1 - Code Scanning
1.
Keep the remote control aimed at the IR input (or
“eye”) for the component you want to control.
For example, if you want to program the remote control to operate the TV, keep the remote aimed at the TV’s IR input (many in-vehicle TVs come with an IR eye built into the screen).
2.
Press and hold the remote control’s component button (for example, TV).
3.
At the same time, press the MUTE button for two seconds.
4.
Release both buttons.
The component button should light and remain lit. If it doesn’t remain lit, repeat Steps 1 through
4 above.
5.
Repeatedly press the upper part of the
CHANNEL (CH) button.

6.
Continue pressing the CHANNEL (CH) button to step through the codes until the component turns off, indicating that you have found the correct device code. If you accidentally pass a code that
responds or realize you may not have been aiming the remote control at the component, repeatedly press the lower part of the CHANNEL (CH) button to step backward through the codes.
7.
Press the remote control’s PWR button to verify that you have found the proper code. The correct code will turn the component on and off.
8.
Press the component button again to lock in the code (in this example, the TV button).
