(Model: INT-422-4)

Introduction

The Inteset INT-422-4 IR remote allows you to control

up to 4 audio and/or video devices with a single, fully

backlit, easy-to-use remote. It is specifically designed

to work with popular streaming devices such as Xbox,

Apple TV, Roku, Kodi/PCs, FireTV, Nvidia Shield and

many more. The remote is loaded with features

allowing you to accomplish total control of your A/V

devices with the fewest button presses.

We hope that you are pleased with your new remote.

Help is available at http://universalremotes.net. This

will give you access to all the information you need to

get started with your new remote including the

device setup code database, button mappings,

warranty information, and more.

Installing the Batteries

Your Inteset INT-422-4 remote control comes with

2 AA alkaline batteries.

Battery Use and Safety

 Replace with only fresh batteries.

 Do not mix old and new batteries, different types

of batteries (alkaline, or rechargeable), or

rechargeable batteries of different capacities.

 If you do not plan to use the remote for an

extended period, remove the batteries.

WARNING: Dispose of old batteries promptly and

properly. Do not burn or bury batteries.

To Install the Batteries

1. Open the battery compartment cover located on

the back of the remote using the latch installed.

2. Place the included AA batteries in the

compartment so that the positive and negative

ends of the batteries match the symbols labeled in

the remote’s battery compartment.

3. Replace the cover

Note: If at any time the red LED blinks 5 times while

using the remote, install new batteries.

Programming Device Control

Before proceeding with programming the Inteset

remote, you should first find the remote setup codes

for the A/V devices you own (up to four). You can find

these codes easily by searching the Device Setup

Codes database link at the bottom of the following

site (search instructions are found on that website):

http://universalremotes.net

Once you have the setup codes, it takes just a few

minutes to configure the remote for your A/V

devices. Note that if you own an AppleTV, Xbox One,

MCE/Kodi, or Roku device, the setup codes for these

devices are pre-programmed to the A, B, C, and D

device mode buttons respectively on the remote. If

you do not use one or any of these devices, you can

overwrite the pre-programming with your own setup

codes. Follow the steps below to program the remote

to work with your devices:

1. Turn on the device (ie: your TV).

2. Press the Device key on the remote you wish to

program (ie: A, B, C or D).

3. Press and hold the SET button until the red LED

blinks twice, then release.

4. Enter the first five-digit setup code for the device

(ie: TV) you found in the code search. The LED

blinks once as each digit is entered. If the code is

valid, the LED will blink twice quickly.

NOTE: If the red LED does not blink twice after

entering the five-digit code, repeat steps 2-4 with the

next Device Setup Code in the code Lookup.

5. Aim the remote at the device (ie: TV) and press

the remote’s POWER button (top right corner).

The device should turn off. If it does not, you

should repeat steps 2-5, trying each code for your

device’s brand until you find the one that works.

6. Repeat steps 1-5 for the other devices you want

to control.

Searching for your Device Setup Code

If, in the unlikely situation you cannot find a setup

code match based on the above instructions, you can

try searching the entire code database group for your

device by cycling through all codes. To do this, follow

the steps below:

1. Turn on the device you wish to control (ie: TV).

2. Press the desired Device mode button once.

3. Press and hold the SET button until the red LED

blinks twice, then release.

4. Enter 9 9 1. The LED will blink twice.

5. Press the device group number that corresponds

to your device (ie: 0=cable boxes, 1=TVs, 2=DVDs,

Blu-ray players, streaming, 3=audio equipment).

6. Aim the remote at the device and press the

POWER button. The remote will send the first IR

code in its library for the power button within that

device group.

7. If the device does not respond, press the CH+

button and the remote will send the next code.

Continue until the device shuts off (press CH- for

the previous code).

8. Once the device turns off, press the SET button to

save the code to the selected device mode.

Obtaining the Remote’s Setup Codes

Sometimes it may be necessary to determine the

device setup codes you are using on your remote. For

example, if you purchase a new Inteset remote

control for a different room with a similar A/V device

setup. Follow the instructions below to obtain the

device setup codes programmed on your remote:

1. Press the “A” device button once.

2. Press and hold the SET button until the red LED

blinks twice, then release.

3. Enter 9 9 0. The LED blinks twice.

4. To determine the first digit of the code, press 1.

Count the red LED blinks (ie: three blinks = 3) and

make note of the number.

NOTE: If a code digit is 0, the red LED does not blink.

5. Repeat step 4 for the remaining four digits of the

setup code using 2 for the second digit, 3 for the

third, 4 for the fourth, and 5 for the fifth setup

code digit.

6. To determine other device setup codes

programmed into the other Device buttons (B, C

and D), repeat steps 1-5, substituting the device

button to check.

Learning another Remote’s Buttons

You can learn the IR signal of each button on the

remote that came with your A/V device. It may be

necessary to program particular buttons on your

Inteset remote this way if they are not available after

applying the setup codes to the device buttons.

Before learning a button, there are some

considerations.

Learning Considerations

 Your original remote control must be an IR type

remote (Infrared) and be in working order.

 Learned buttons are device specific. So, for each

button/device on your Inteset remote, you can

learn a button from the original remote.

 The following buttons are not available for

learning: Device, SET, or Record.

 Learning capacity is about 50 buttons depending

on the internal IR code length of the buttons.

 Certain buttons are not learnable including multi

or high frequency types, and other odd formats.

 For optimal learning, avoid bright ambient light

such as natural sunlight.

 When learning a button, press the original remote

button quickly. Otherwise the Inteset remote may

learn the IR code for the button twice.

Learning a Button

NOTE: If more than 10 seconds passes between

button presses, the remote will exit programming

mode.

1. Place the Inteset remote head-to-head (about 2”

apart) from the training remote. Locate the

button you want to learn on the training remote.

2. On the Inteset remote, press the Device mode

button (ie: A, B, C or D) to which you want to

learn buttons from the training remote.

3. Press and hold the SET button until the red LED

blinks twice, then release.

4. Enter 9 7 5. The red LED will blink twice.

NOTE: If the LED displays one long flash instead,

either the batteries are low, or the remote has a

memory fault (ie: it is out of memory). In either case,

the remote will not be able to learn any buttons.

5. Press the button on the Inteset remote that you

want to learn. The red LED will start blinking

rapidly, indicating it is ready to learn.

6. On the training remote, quickly press the button

to be learned. The Inteset remote LED should

blink twice indicating it has learned the button

from the training remote. Do not hold the training

remote button down too long or the IR signal may

be learned twice or more times.

Removing a Learned Button

This procedure returns the previously learned button

to its originally programmed state for the selected

mode. You can also overwrite learned buttons by

retraining them as described in the previous

“Learning another Remote’s Buttons” section.

NOTE: If more than 10 seconds passes between

button presses, the remote will exit programming

mode.

1. Press the Device mode button (ie: A, B, C or D)

for which you want to remove a learned button.

2. Press and hold the SET button until the red LED

blinks twice, then release.

3. Enter 9 7 6. The LED will blink twice.

4. Press the button containing the learned function

to be removed twice. The LED will blink twice and

then exit from programming.

Removing All Learned Buttons from a

Device Mode

NOTE: If more than 10 seconds passes between

button presses, the remote will exit programming

mode.

1. Press and hold the SET button until the red LED

blinks twice, then release.

2. Enter 9 7 6, the LED will blink twice.

3. Press the Device mode button for the device you

want to clear twice. The LED will blink twice and

then exit the programming mode.

Programming Volume Lock

By default, your remote comes preset to allow

independent volume control of each A/V device.

However, you may change the volume control to

apply globally to all devices instead. Then, you can set

specific device modes to control volume separately

from the global control, if needed.

Applying Global Volume Lock

1. Press and hold the SET button until the red LED

blinks twice, then release.

2. Enter 9 9 3, the LED will blink twice.

3. Press the Device mode button for the device you

want to have global volume control (ie: TV).

4. The LED will blink twice. Now when you press the

VOL+, VOL-, or Mute buttons, the volume on

your chosen device (ie: TV) will be controlled

regardless of the current device mode.

Removing Global Volume Lock

1. Press and hold the SET button until the red LED

blinks twice, then release.

2. Enter 9 9 3, the LED will blink twice.

3. Press VOL+ button. The LED will blink four times

indicating that the global volume control is

removed and control is now returned to each

device.

Removing a Device from Global Volume

Lock

1. Press the desired Device mode button to remove

from global volume control.

2. Press and hold the SET button until the red LED

blinks twice, then release.

3. Enter 9 9 3, the LED will blink twice.

4. Press the VOL- button. The LED will blink four

times indicating that the current device is

removed from global volume control.

Programming Channel Lock

Similar to Volume Lock, your remote has the ability to

provide channel control from one device to all device

modes. This is convenient for users who watch all

broadcast TV via one device (ie: cable box). The

affected buttons are the 0-9 number keys as well as

the CH+, CH-, Last, and Enter buttons.

Applying Global Channel Lock

1. Press the Device mode button for the device you

want global channel lock (ie: your cable box).

2. Press and hold the SET button until the red LED

blinks twice, then release.

3. Enter 9 7 3, the LED will blink twice.

4. Press CH+ once. The LED will blink once.

5. Press the Device mode button for the device you

want global channel lock (ie: your cable box).

Now when you press the CH+, CH-, 0-9, Last, or Enter

buttons, the channel on your chosen device (ie: cable

box) will be controlled regardless of the current

device mode.

Removing a Device from Global Channel

Lock

1. Press and hold the SET button until the red LED

blinks twice, then release.

2. Enter 9 7 3, the LED will blink twice.

3. Press the CH- button. The LED will blink four

times indicating that the current device is

removed from Global Channel Lock.

Programming Macros

Program any button (except SET) to perform multiple

functions (button presses) with a single press. Each

macro button can hold up to 32 instructions.

NOTE: Programming a new macro over an existing

one erases the original macro.

Programming a Device Mode Independent

Macro

1. Press and hold the SET button until the LED blinks

twice, then release.

2. Enter 9 9 5, the LED will blink twice.

3. Press the button you wish to assign a macro.

4. Enter the series of commands (button presses)

you want the macro button to execute (up to 32).

5. Press and hold the SET button until the red LED

blinks twice, then release.

Now, when you press the macro button, the remote

will send the series of commands sequentially

regardless of the device mode you’re in. For example,

you could program a macro to turn on both your TV

and cable box, then select your favorite channel.

NOTE: You must point the remote toward your A/V

equipment until the remote finishes sending all

commands. The LED will stop flashing when all

commands are sent.

NOTE: To clear a macro button, perform steps 1-5,

but don’t specify the series of commands (step 4).

Programming a Device Mode Dependent

Macro

1. Press the Device mode button (ie: A, B, C, or D)

where you want to assign a macro button.

2. Press and hold the SET button until the red LED

blinks twice, then release.

3. Enter 9 7 8, the LED will blink twice.

4. Press the button you wish to assign a macro.

5. Enter the series of commands (button presses)

you want the macro button to execute (up to 32).

6. Press and hold the SET button until the red LED

blinks twice, then release.

Now when the macro button is pressed in the

selected device mode, the remote will send the series

of commands sequentially. For example, you could

program a macro to turn on both your TV and cable

box, then select a favorite channel. The macro button

is only applicable when in the TV device mode.

NOTE: To clear a macro button, perform steps 1-6,

but don’t specify the series of commands (step 5).

Programming Punch-through Keys

Any programmable key can be set to send the same

IR signal no matter what device mode is selected. To

do this, follow the steps below:

1. Press and hold the SET button until the red LED

blinks twice, then release.

2. Enter 9 8 4, the LED will blink twice.

3. Press the source Device mode where the key

resides that has the desired IR signal to punch-

through (ie: TV).

4. Press the desired source key. If more than one

punch-through key is desired, press those keys as

well.

5. Press the destination Device mode button(s) to

program the punch-through key(s) to (ie: cable

box).

6. Press and hold the SET button. The red LED will

blink twice indicating the punch-through

programming is complete.

NOTE: New punch-through programming will

overwrite the current punch-through programming.

Programming On/Off for Some or All

Devices

This is a Device Independent Macro to control Power

on/off on Device buttons A, B, C & D,

1. 1. Press and hold the SET button until the LED

3. Press the Power button or any other

programmable button to control the On/Off.

4. Press: A, Power, B, Power, C, Power, D, Power

or substitute any programmable button for the

Power button..

5. Press the Device mode that you want to be in

after executing the On/Off entry in 4 above.

6. Press and hold the SET button until the LED

blinks twice.

Note: If you only want to control 2 or 3 devices for

Power then change the entry in 4 above to those

Device buttons only.

Tip: If one of your devices does not turn on/off with

the other devices as expected, enter that device

button first in the sequence in 4 above.

Note: If you program the Power button for this

purpose be sure to point the remote at your devices

long enough to sequence through all the devices or

you will have to use your original remotes to turn

that device on/off to get back into sequence.

Back Lighting

Pressing any key on the remote will operate the

remote’s backlighting for 5 seconds. Pressing the SET

button will operate the backlighting for 10 seconds.

Resetting to Factory Default

If for any reason you want to completely clear all of

the programming you performed on the remote to

the original settings, follow the steps below:

1. Press and hold the SET button until it blinks

twice, then release.

2. Enter 9 7 7, the SET button will blink four times

indicating that it has been completely reset to

the factory default.

3. This will include the programmed Device mode

buttons. If you want to reset all programming

except the device codes enter 980 in step 2.

Streamer Device Codes

These are the most popular streamers and the Device

Codes that apply to them. (A, B, C or D). These codes

can also be found at the Code Lookup page on our

website. Apple TV, Xbox One, MCE/Kodi, & Roku

setup codes are pre-programmed on the A, B, C, & D

buttons respectively.

Note: Some streamers do not have IR Receivers.

Inteset has created the IReTV IR Receiver that can be

plugged into the streamer. In addition to allowing the

use of Inteset Remotes, you can hide the streamer

behind closed doors using the IReTV. Fire TV
