How to Program a Vivitar Universal Remote
Make sure your remote has fresh, working batteries before you begin.
Find the code for your device category and brand. You only need one code — if it doesn’t work, try the next one listed for your brand.
Here we are taking the example of programming a Vivitar remote to a TV.
Direct code input method
- Point the remote at your TV set and press the “TV” button
- Press and hold down the Setup button till the LED lights up on top
- Then enter the 4-digit Vivitar remote code for your device
- The light will blink 4 times when you enter the correct code
- If the code is incorrect, the light will turn off
- Then point the remote at the TV and press the power button to check
- Try pressing other commands on the remote, too.
The same method can be used to pair the Vivitar remote with other devices, such as DVD players, audio devices, and set-top boxes.
How to find the codes for the Vivitar universal remote?
When you bought your Vivitar universal remote, it should have come with a printed user manual and a device code booklet. Some people keep these safe, while others misplace them. If you still have your code booklet and manual, that’s all you need — it’s matched to your exact remote model, so you won’t have to search anywhere else. The manual includes codes for all major device brands.
Get the code from the official website or the PDF manual released by Vivitar.
Download the Vivitar user manual
You can’t download the user manual PDF from Vivitar’s official website anymore. Vivitar is no longer promoting its third-party remote models. If you’re having trouble finding the codes or programming your remote, you can contact Vivitar’s customer support team.
That said, we do have a copy of the Vivitar URC-720 remote user manual. The same instructions apply to the Vivitar URC-713 and URC-720 8-in-1 remotes. It doesn’t contain the codes themselves, but it does cover various pairing methods, such as automatic code search and brand name search.
Conclusion
Vivitar universal remote is compatible with multiple devices at a time. To know how many devices your remote is compatible with, look at the model. So many models are 8-device supported. You can program up to 8 devices. Use the single remote with the 8 paired devices.
