Introduction

This page attempts to document all of the 9xx commands that are available on some One For All and other UEI remotes.

Note

  • Not all functions are available on all remotes.
  • Advance Codes and Effective Function Codes (EFC) are interchangeable
  • The "Setup" and "Magic" buttons are also equivalent.

(972) Device Power - Device Buttons to send POWER Signal

When this feature is enabled, the device buttons will send the POWER signal. Known to work with the RCA RCRP05B and AR5G for the TV and Cable device buttons.

  1. TAP the CBL device button - RELEASE
  2. PRESS and HOLD the SETUP button until the red LED flashes twice, then RELEASE.
  3. TAP 9 - 7 - 2 -- Two blinks.
  4. TAP CH- once to deactivate, or ... (4 blinks)
  5. TAP CH+ once to activate (2 blinks)

(973) Channel Lock - Locks channel control to specific device

ChLock Style 1

  1. TAP the CBL device button - RELEASE
  2. PRESS and HOLD the SETUP button until the red LED flashes twice, then RELEASE.
  3. TAP 9 - 7 - 3 -- Two blinks.
  4. TAP CH- once to deactivate, or ...
  5. TAP CH+, then device key, to activate

NOTE: 4 blinks when deactivates, 2 blinks when activates Deactivated=channel, Enter, Last and numbers can be used by all devices Activated=channel, Enter, Last and numbers always go to selected device (CBL is default active)

ChLock Style 2

The RCA RCRP05B handles the 973 Channel Lock commands differently. It has the capabilty to assign the Channel group (CH+/-, digits, Last) to any device button(s). Note that the instruction sheet provided with the remote is wrong.

To lock all devices to one ChLock device:

  1. PRESS and HOLD the SETUP button until the red LED flashes twice, then RELEASE.
  2. TAP 9 - 7 - 3. Two blinks.
  3. TAP Ch+
  4. TAP the ChLock device button. Two blinks of the selected device.

To unlock Channel Lock for all devices:

  1. PRESS and HOLD the SETUP button until the red LED flashes twice, then RELEASE.
  2. TAP 9 - 7 - 3. Two blinks.
  3. TAP Ch-. Four blinks.

To assign the ChLock group of one device to a set of devices:

  1. TAP the device button of the desired ChLock group
  2. PRESS and HOLD the SETUP button until the red LED flashes twice, then RELEASE.
  3. TAP 9 - 7 - 3. Two blinks
  4. TAP each device button in the set of devices to be reassigned
  5. TAP Setup. Two blinks of the ChLock device.


(974) Turning On/Off Back-lighting

Some some hard-button remotes have a button that will turn on off back lighting on the fly. The button will have an icon that looks like a lightbulb. If the lightbulb is on the SET/Magic/Setup button it usually needs to be double tapped to turn on/off the backlight. On other backlit hard-button remotes, the button doesn't exist or doesn't work. In that case a 974 command might be available.


  1. PRESS and HOLD the SETUP button until the red LED flashes twice.
  2. TAP 9 - 7 - 4, the red LED will flash:
  • 2 times if the back light is turned on
  • 4 times if the back light is turned off.

On the OARUSB04G (and also URC-6440) the 974 does not work but the TILT function can be disabled by this method:

  1. PRESS and Hold Setup button until 2 blinks of TV button,
  2. Press Pause button. The TV button will blink:
  • 2 times - capacitive hand sensor enabled
  • 4 times - capacitive hand sensor disabled


(975) Learning from other remotes
