We pressed Side Key K2 next to the Cable Box icon twice to set a sleep timer for 30 minutes. And we press Side Key K7 next to the Sat icon five times to set a sleep timer of 1 hour and 30 minutes. Pressing OK takes you back to the Home screen with your sleep timers saved. The next time you select the Sleep screen you'll see that the sleep timers have started to count down. Make sure you leave the remote pointing at the device(s) you've set Sleep Timers for so it can send the Power command to the device(s) at the time(s) you've set. 24 Learning, cont. · Check the IR transmitters/sensors are correctly aligned between the two remotes. · Adjust the distance between the two remotes to be closer (e. g. , half an inch) or a further away (e. g. , 2 inches) from each other. · Try learning the original remote keys again. · If problems reoccur with the same key, check the original remote button being learned ­ does it transmit?You can learn commands from an existing remote and store them under the "Main" keys on the IR34A IconRemote, or learn commands from an existing remote and store them under any of the 10 side keys.
