Accenda Remote Control Special Instructions




Delay

On rare occasions, you may find an entertainment device which requires a pause between instructions for a multi-step function to operate properly. To provide a pause of ½ second between two instructions in a multi-step function, press [SHIFT] followed by ?.

Adjust Wake Time

To maximize battery life, the Accenda will "sleep" when not in use and is awakened to listen for voice instructions when you press the [LISTEN] button. Normally, when you first wake up Accenda, it will remain awake for 4 hours. The Wake time may be shortened or lengthened as follows:
  1. Press [AUX] The AUX button will flash once.
  2. Press [PROG] The AUX button will flash twice.
  3. Press [5] The AUX button will flash once.
  4. Press [PROG] The AUX button will flash as follows:
    1. 1 flash = 1 minute
    2. 2 flashes = 1 hour
    3. 3 flashes = 4 hours
    4. 4 flashes = always on
  5. Repeat steps one through four to cycle through the possible wake time intervals.
If you press the [LISTEN] button when Accenda is already awake, it will re-enter the sleep mode and remain asleep until you press [LISTEN] again.

Note: The Accenda is "awake" and listening for instructions only when the Listen button is green.

Adjust Multi-step function Repeat

Most entertainment devices require that infrared instructions be repeated some number of times, usually three, in order to reliably accept them. However, a limited number of devices require more or fewer code repeats. Accenda defaults to automatically sending each instruction three times. On very rare occasions, you may notice that a particular entertainment device is performing functions too many times with voice instructions or keyboard multi-step functions.

For example, you have created a voice instruction for channel 12 and you see the TV going to channels 1-1-1-2-2-2. If this happens you need to reduce the repeat count from three to one.

Accenda allows you to change the number of times a instruction is sent (the repeat count) from between one and four. To change the repeat-count,
  1. Press [AUX] - [PROG] - [7] - [PROG]
  2. Press [7] - [PROG]
  3. Try the voice instruction or multi-step sequence again to see if it works properly. For the most reliable operation, you should use the highest repeat count that works properly. Each time you press [7] - [PROG] you will increase the repeat count by one. After the count reaches four, it will cycle back to one.
