Programming Using Auto-Scan for Cable Box Codes

The preferred method of programming the Odessa remote control to the Cable Box is the Auto-Scan feature.

This process is not applicable for “simple remotes” which do not have Channel, Volume, or On/Off buttons. Click here to read about the simple remote version.

After completing this procedure, the Channel +/- buttons will work for your Cable Box. You can change the channels using the orange remote control.

How to use Auto-Scan for Cable Box:

  1. Turn the TV on

  2. Switch to cable input (as if you are watching a regular TV)

  3. On the orange remote control, hold RIGHT and ON-OFF buttons for 3 seconds

  4. The OK button LED light will be solid green

  5. Point the orange remote control at the cable box

  6. Press the CH + repeatedly until the cable channel changes. When the channel changes, stop pressing CH +.

  7. Press the STAR button once to lock in the button codes.

  8. The OK button LED will flash to confirm the codes are locked in.

Test if the remote has the correct cable box codes:

  1. Point the orange remote control at the TV

  2. Press the CH +/- buttons.

  3. If the channels changes up and down, you successfully completed the steps above.
