How do I program the remote control for OLD Spectrum Charter?
The way the Spectrum Charter remotes are programmed differs slightly from the new ones if you have an old model with a SETUP button (Models 1060BC2/1060BC3). Here’s how it works.
Click on the link below to find the codes
Choosing the Device type from the first drop-down menu, then selecting the Brand name and listing out the codes from the second menu, will result in the list of codes. It is possible to find the codes for multiple types of devices this way, including TVs, LCD TVs, DVD players, cable boxes, and set-top boxes.
Follow the instructions once you have found the code
- Make sure you have the correct video media inserted in your device (DVD, Blu-ray, TV, etc.).
- Use the Device key on the remote control to control the device (TV, DVD, AUX, STB, CBL).
- When the selected mode key blinks twice, press and hold the SETUP key
- You need to enter the five-digit device brand key that you found
- It will blink twice when the Mode key is pressed
- You can turn off the device by pointing the remote at it and pressing the Power or Play button
It is best to retry with another code if the mode key blinks for a long period of time.
