Configuração e programação
The RC72 remote can operate in two primary modes: RF (Radio Frequency) for Genie DVRs and clients, and IR (Infrared) for older DIRECTV receivers and other devices like TVs and audio systems.

Programming for TV and Audio Devices (IR Mode)
To control your TV's power and volume, or other audio devices, you will need to program the remote using specific codes. The remote utilizes an extensive database of included codes.

- On the RC72 remote, press and hold the MUDO botão e o SELECIONAR button simultaneously until the green light at the top of the remote flashes twice.

- After entering the code, point the remote at the TV and press the PODER botão. Se a TV desligar, o código está correto.
- If the TV does not turn off, repeat the process with another code for your brand until successful.
