Universal Remote Control MX-500 LCD Remote Control - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Blu-Ray players can't be synchronized with any other remote controls, except its original one. Don't waste time and damage the player's firmware by experiments.

Hey finally I found myself how to set the code... I have a PX-RC1 kind a noname remote at XScargo anyway...
Press SET BUTTON and at the same time, the appliance you want to set( TV, VCR,Aux...etc). The LED shoould stay on.. then press on the SET BUTTON again ... the led will blink fast... then press ( in front of TV, of else).. the POWER BUTTON to see what happens, if nothing happens, then press the +CHANNEL BUTTON once, and press power again. Repeat this until it turn off. THen press the appliance button (VCR,TV,AUX, etc...), this will stop the LED to blink and your appliance will be set.. I guess if it doesn't work good, go further onto the code with the +CHANNEL BUTTON (better count it in case you go too far, for myself I went too far and tried to use the -BUTTON and didn't work)
GOOD LUCK GUYS,

2. Auto Scan With Three-Digit Number
You can also program your remote control by sending out a
series of Power Off commands for different brands stored
in the library by using the following steps. This is similar
to the first method, except it is easier to move through all
of the device codes for your device and make note of each
one that turns your device OFF.
1. Manually turn on the device you plan to operate.
2. Go to the SETUP mode by pressing both the MAIN and
ENT buttons simultaneously for three seconds.
3. Press the P-PRO button next to the LCD screen.

4. Programming the MX-500TMto Control Your Components
4. The remote will be flashing "SELECT BUTTON".
Press the device you wish to program. (For example, to
program TV, press the TV button.)
5. The remote will be flashing "FROM TABLE". Select the
device from which the scanned code will be selected.
(Important: If you have already relabeled your device
keys, your LCD screen will not look like the illustration
above. Select the appropriate LCD button for the "FROM
TABLE" using the labels as shown in the illustration on
page 11 of this manual. For example, if you have relabeled
AUX as LIGHTS, you would still push the bottom-left
button to access the AUX Code Table.
6. Point the remote control toward the component and
alternately press the UP (or DOWN ) button on the LCD
and the Power button. If the right code number is sent, the
component will turn off right after the code number is
transmitted.
(Please press the UP (or DOWN ) button within 20 seconds
of beginning programming, otherwise the remote will
revert to the SETUP menu, and then after a period of time,
it will go back to the MAIN device page.)

7. Confirm that it is the right code by pressing the Power
button. After you have confirmed that the right code is
entered, save the code by pressing the SAVE button on the
LCD.
8. Confirm that you entered the right code number that
matches your component by pressing other functional
buttons. If any of the buttons do not operate, as they
should, please repeat from Step 1.
9. Continue to program other components by repeating
from step 1 above.
10. You can press EXIT at any time if you do not wish to
proceed.
11. Exit from Preprogrammed mode by pressing the MAIN
button and then exit from the SETUP mode by pressing the
MAIN button once again.

OK

Battery is low or almost empty, change with the new one. And make sure there are nothing block TV receiver and remote control, plastic or paper or something else.

Press SET BUTTON and at the same time, the appliance you want to set( TV, VCR,Aux...etc). The LED should stay on.. then press on the SET BUTTON again ... the led will blink fast... then press ( in front of TV, of else).. the POWER BUTTON to see what happens, if nothing happens, then press the +CHANNEL BUTTON once, and press power again.

Hi,

These are the codes for toshiba Television

007, 015, 030, 040, 062, 101, 138

Thanx

There is no "bulb" in the unit. The MX-500 provides power to an electroluminiscent strip that runs from the top to the bottom of the remote. When power is applied, the whole strip glows inside.

Sounds like your light switch is going bad. Not sure what the life of the EL panel is but the part number is A015-J1

when you buy a remote they give you some instructins and a list whit codes, follow these instructions or try on this site to ask ather instruction: https://www.2instructions.com/search.php?cmarque=PX-RC1&modele=PX-RC1

If you have a MX-500 use your origional remote to teach the MX-500 the codes.

This remote may have a screw under the label on the rear if not it is a 'snap together' type which usually can be prised open using a very thin screwdriver but be careful you dont slip and injure yourself.

HOW CAN I GET THE CODES FOR MY SANYO T.V TO WORK CAUSE I CANT SEEM TO GET IT WORKING WITH MY PX-RC1 ROMOTE IF ANY ONE KNOW WHO TO HELP ME CAN YOU PLZ TELL ME HOW ITS DONE THANKS

The MX-500 has a learning mode that you can use. Press MAIN and ENT together for 3 seconds, then press the P-PRO button. Select the device then button you wish to program on your remote and then with both remotes facing each other (IR ports must be able to communicate) press the button on your other remote.

You can also download a copy of the book here...

If you have a learning universal remote, such as the MX-500, just put the remote in learning mode, press the button on the universal remote you want to program then press the appropriate button on the other remote. Otherwise, we'll need to know also what remote control you have. They are not all alike.

I would suggest you use the learning mode and teach your remote from the remote that came with the Sony

Here's the Hitachi TV codes in the booklet:
004,014,019,034,069,086,095,099,100,107,
113,157,162,164,173,176,178,179,184,188,
201,203,204,207,214,224,225,238

Hope they work. I couldn't get the RCA codes to work......
What can I expect for $3.00?

you really have to contact the tech who installed your system...because he was the one who programed your remote

028,022,027. Try these codes. If you wish to get more details; check the sites linked here. It has set-up code list & set-up procedure to many popular brand remote controls. Common set-up codes to check with TVs and other devices are given, in the order of the "device's brand name list" in alphabetical order. Pull up older posts. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/ http://remotesearch.blogspot.com/ http://electrohelponline.blogspot.com/ Programming Notes • If your device does not respond to the remote after trying all codes listed or your brand is not listed in the code list, use the Auto Code Search method to program your remote. • Sometimes the first code that "works" with your device may operate only a few functions of your device. There may be another code in the code list that performs more functions. Try other codes from the code list for more functionality. This is a trial and error procedure; and quiet time consuming. You might have to check different codes said for your device. Search the site by type in the "brand name" to your device; that you want set-up code, in the "Search box at the top right of the display window of the Homepage" to get gathered related posts.
