Then the list in your IR Database should be up to date. If you have a piece of equipment that doesn't appear in that list, there are several things you can do.
1. In the IR Database, you can go down all the models listed by the manufacturer of your piece of equipment, and TEST The codes for each model to see if they work with yours.
Test the Code Set
A.Verify the MX-700/800 is loaded with fresh batteries and connect the MX-700/800 to the PC via the serial port.
B.Turn on the component
C. Point the connected MX-700/800 so that it is in range and within line of sight of the component.
D. Click on the Test button
E. Observe the component. If it stays on, click on another Model and continue until you find the
Code Set that turns the component off. When it turns off, click on Save.
2. You can go to The
MX-700 section of the files database at Remote Central to see if anyone has uploaded the codes for your device. Remember that many manufacturers use the same codes for all, or many, of their models. So, If you can't find a file for your specific model, you might want to download and check some files for other models.
3. You can go to the
Phillips Pronto & ProntoPRO section of the files database at Remote Central and look for .ccf files for your device. The codes in these files will work, also.
4. You can use the remote that came with your device to "teach" the MX-700 the codes. (Pages 25 to 29 in the manual). It's a bit more time consuming, but once you get into the routine, it can go quite quickly.
