Module 1: How To Program Your TV with Sony Replacement Remote (URC-4912)

This module covers the essential steps to ensure your remote is perfectly synced with your Sony TV.

1.1 The Instant Sync (For Most Newer TVs)

This remote is designed for immediate functionality.

• First, insert two AA batteries.
• Next, aim the remote at your Sony TV and test key functions like Power and Volume.

For most modern Sony TVs, the remote will work perfectly without any further configuration. If so, your setup is complete.

1.2 The Primary Sync Method

If the Instant Sync does not work, this simple search process will find the correct code for your TV model.

1. Ensure your TV is powered on.
2. Press and hold the Red and Blue keys simultaneously until the LED behind the Power button flashes twice.
3. Point the remote at the TV and press and hold the Power key.
4. The remote will now transmit a power-off signal every three seconds. The moment your television turns off, you must immediately release the Power key.
5. The LED will blink twice to confirm the code is stored. Test other functions on the remote to ensure full control¹⁰.

1.3 The Key Correction Process

If the Primary Sync works but a few specific keys do not function as expected, use this process to fine-tune individual commands.

1. With your TV on, enter the fine-tuning mode by holding Red + Blue until the LED blinks twice.
2. Aim the remote at the TV and press and hold the specific key that is not working correctly (for example, the HOME key).
3. The remote will send a new command for that function every 3 seconds.
4. When the correct function appears on your TV screen (e.g., the home menu opens), immediately release the key. The LED will blink twice, confirming the new command is saved.
