CONVERTING DEVICE KEYS You can use the 4-in-One Remote to operate a second TV or VCR (or other components) for a total of up to four devices.

PUNCH-THROUGH The punch-through feature lets you alternately control two different devices without pressing the device keys for each one. Punch-through allows you to control the TV's volume while the 4-in-One is in any device mode. With punch-through on, if you press VCR and use your volume keys, the 4-in-One will control the TV's volume instead of the VCR's. Turning Punch-Through Off /On If your cable converter or VCR has volume control, you might want to turn off punch-through so you can use the cable converter's or VCR's volume instead of the TV's. To turn off punch-through, hold down P until the red light blinks twice. Now, when you want to control the volume through your cable converter, press CBL before using the volume keys. If you want to control the volume through your VCR, press VCR before using the volume keys. To turn punch-through back on, hold down P until the red light blinks twice. Press 9 9 3, then the key for the device you want to control all volume (TV, for example).
