Programming instructions and codes for Jumbo Universal Remote Controls (1)

Most Jumbo universal remote controls such as the Innovage, iWave, Emerson, Sentry RMC10 & RMC20, Harbor Freight 66687 and other generic "JUMBO" models use the same codes as the older RCA remotes with 3-digit codes.

There are some exceptions though, such as the Harbor Freight Tools Item 61959 and the QFX REM-115 for example, that come pre-programmed with newer codes, very similar to these 4-digit codes used in Philips remotes.

The set-up procedures for most older Jumbos are the same as RCA's, so only the basic 'Direct Code Entry' and 'Code Search' instructions are presented here. For the rest, see this page.

Direct code entry for Jumbo remotes

First, turn on your TV or other device. Refer to the code lists and note the first code listed for your brand.

Step 1: Press the "CODE SEARCH" button until the LED turns on and stays solid red. Release the button.

Step 2: Press and release the Device Select Control button for the device that you are programming ("CABLE", "TV", "VCR","DVD" or "SAT"). The LED will blink once, then remain solid.

Step 3: Enter the 3-digit code using the number keys. The LED will blink as each number is pushed. If LED turns off after entering the 3rd digit, the remote has recognized the code. If the LED flashes, the code is not recognized and you will need to repeat this procedure using a different code. Note: The remote may recognize the code but the device may not. You may need to try more than one code to get the device to function.

Step 4: Press the "ON/OFF" button. If the device turns off, press the "ON/OFF" button again. If the device turns on, and other common functions work as they should, you have found the correct code. If not, you will need to repeat this procedure using the next code listed for your brand.

Note:

  • To program the newer 'Harbor Freight Tools' Item 61959 or any other Jumbo remote that has a "Mute" button instead of "Code Search" button, press and hold the desired Device Select Control button until the LED turns on and stays solid red, then enter the 4-digit code.

Code search for Jumbo remotes

First, turn on your TV or other device.

Step 1: Press the "CODE SEARCH" button until the LED turns on and stays solid red. Release the button.

Step 2: Press and release the Device Select Control button for the device that you are programming ("CABLE", "TV", "VCR","DVD" or "SAT"). The LED will blink once, then remain solid.

Step 3: Point the remote at your device and press and release the "ON/OFF" button. The LED will flash once each time you press the "ON/OFF" button. Keep doing this slowly until the device turns off. It may take up to a few hundred times to reach the correct code. When the device turns off, immediately press and release the "ENTER" button to store the code.

Step 4: Press the "ON/OFF" button and the device should turn on. This ensures that the code was properly stored in the remote for that device. Test all other buttons on the remote to verify that they work properly.

Notes:

  • If no keys have been pressed for 15 seconds, the Code Search feature will automatically turn off.
  • For the rest of procedures, (e.g., 'Code Retrieval') see our RCA howto page.
  • To search for a working code for the newer Harbor Freight Tools Item 61959, the QFX REM-115 or any other Jumbo remote that has a "Mute" button instead of "Code Search" button, press and hold the desired Device Select button until the LED turns on and stays solid red, then press and release "CH+" repeatedly until the device turns off. When the device turns off, press "ENTER" to store the code.

Code lists for Jumbo remote controls

Most "Jumbo" remote controls use similar codes as old RCA remotes, so we'll list only a few common brands of TVs on this page.

See the full TV codelist for iWave, Innovage, 'Can you imagine', 'Harbor Freight' 66687 and other generic "JUMBO" universal remote controls here.

If you own a newer 'Harbor Freight' Item 61959, a QFX REM-115 or any other Jumbo remote that has a "Mute" button instead of "Code Search" button, consult the Philips 4-digit TV code list.
