HELP: Problems with Remote Control of VSX 01THX

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
Hi All,

i'm a new member to AVS Forum, but i've relied on the great information typically found on this forum in purchasing a new VSX 01THX receiver. i've spent the last week setting up the receiver and i've encountered a number of problems. i've found workarounds for several of the problems but the one that continues to stymie me is the ability of the remote control to work with my different components. the manual says that i should be able to input a 3 digit code (provided in the manual) associated with my brand of tv and it should work with the remote. however, regardless of which 3 digit code i've inputed in the remote, it simply won't accept them and always gives me an error message. additionally, the manual says that i should be able to "teach" the receiver how to work with my tv if the remote codes don't work. however, it does not explain to me how this "teaching" happens. can anyone help?

This is strange. There are no instructions for 'learning' codes, and I don't see a button that may indicate the remote has learning capabilities. My guess is that they planned to include a remote with learning capability; it didn't pan out, and they forgot to remove these little pointers in the manual. Looks like we're stuck with the pre-programmed codes.

hi garciab,

thanks for the comment. does this mean you're having the same problem with your remote as well? have you tried to input the code and it doesn't work?

doesn't seem like other people are having the same problems by the lack of response to my post. hopefully we'll get others to respond.

I use a Harmony, so I can't help with the codes. I know there were some complaints on the 1018 thread about the codes for Samsung tv's. Try asking in the 1018 thread. The remote looks to have the same button layaout, so I bet it works exactly the same (only the lighting is different).

Perhaps this is a day late and a dollar short, but I'm having no problems whatsoever with my remote controlling my other components.
