As you can use your optimum remote to control the TV volume and power functions, you can simply avoid the original TV remote, and use it to control both your TV and cable box. But it needs pairing.
In this post, I am going to show you how to program optimum remote in three different methods.
If you are using well-reputed TV brands like Vizio, Insignia, Sony, Samsung, LG, etc, you can use a straightforward method, called the One-digit code method, otherwise, you should rely on other auto-code search or 4-digit universal code methods.
No need to worry if you are using a different TV brand, as they typically provide a code library where you can choose the universal code specific to your TV. Surely, I’ll list out all those codes here.
How to program Optimum remote to TV?
One-digit simple methods are going to be discussed here in this section. I hope you are using the Optimum Black IR (Altice One) remote control.
If using any other models including voice or stream controllers, this tutorial will help you.
Anyway, note down the one-digit code for your TV brand from the below table. It’s enough if you are using any one of the following TV brands.
| TV Brand | Code |
|---|---|
| Insignia | 1 |
| LG | 2 |
| Panasonic | 3 |
| Philips/Magnavox | 4 |
| Samsung | 5 |
| Sanyo | 6 |
| Sharp | 7 |
| Sony | 8 |
| Toshiba | 9 |
| Vizio | 0 |
- Turn on your TV
- Simultaneously press and hold down the TV and SELECT buttons until the HOME button blinks twice
- Press the TV button and point the remote to your TV
- Press and hold down the corresponding key for your TV brand
- Release the button once your TV turns OFF
- Again press the TV button, and your TV will turn ON when your remote is successfully paired
Test all the power, volume, and function keys working perfectly.
Auto-search method
The remote control search and find the pairing code for your TV. If you are using TV brands other than the above given, you can try this method.
It’s not complicated as we used the auto-code search method on other universal remotes.
- Turn on your TV
- Find the TV and SELECT keys on the remote, press and hold down on them until the HOME button blinks twice
- Point the remote to the TV
- Press and hold the SELECT button until your TV turns OFF
- Press the TV button again, and when it turns ON, you have successfully paired your remote
