Advanced Settings, cont.
KidSafe
Press the HOME key, then select Setup, then select Advanced, then
KidSafe.
The first time you access the KidSafe menu you are asked if you want
to set up a KidSafe Code. If you select Yes, you see this screen. You
enter a 4 digit code that you will easily remember, but that your Kid(s)
won't guess.
After you enter a 4 digit code and press OK you see a screen that lets
you pick a new KidSafe code, i.e., change it. And/or set the group of
favourites that your Kids have access to (the default group is Kids but
will be grayed out if you haven't set that group up yet).
You can press the Side Key next to Pick Favourites and choose a
different favourites group that you want your Kids to have access to,
e.g., any other favourites group you've set up.
After you've done this you now have the option to Turn KidSafe On.
If you turn KidSafe On everything in the remote except access to the
KidSafe group (and Volume/Mute keys) is locked out. No settings
can be changed, and Prog Up/Down, and number keys don't work.
If you try to access any other favourite group, change a setting, or access any forbidden menu,
you are asked to enter the KidSafe code. You cannot continue unless you enter the correct
KidSafe code. See the Troubleshooting section if you forget your KidSafe code - but don't let
your kids read this owner's manual!

previously learned commands under and clear everything that was learned. Only devices that
you have learned commands under are shown. All other devices are grayed out.

had set up for a device. Only devices that you have set up Punchthrough for are shown. All
other devices are grayed out.
Pressing the Side Key next to Master Clear lets you clear EVERYTHING in the remote. Be

Learning
Tips On Learning
a. Some functions from some types of remotes might not be able to be learned.
b. No functions may be learned under the HOME, MODE, FAVOURITE,
keys.
c. Use fresh batteries for both the H510 remote and your Original Remote.
d. Keep at least 1 meter away from incandescent or low-energy lights when learning.
e. Place the original remote end-to-end with the H510 remote so the IR transmitter (at the
top) on your original remote points at the IR learning device on the bottom of the H510
remote.
f. Keep the distance between the two remotes to approximately 3 cm.
g. Line up the remotes and then press the key you want to learn. To get the correct range,
press the key on the remote you are learning and you will see a "red halo" around the
transmit icon at the bottom left of the screen starts to flicker. The best range for learning
is when it flickers most rapidly. Move the position of the 2 remotes to achieve this. Do
not change this "best distance" between the two remotes until you have learned all the
required keys.
h. When Learning, you should normally not release the key being learned until the display
prompts you to do so. However, some keys might be learned multiple times if you do
this. If this happens just "tap" the key you want to learn, rather than press and hold it. For
example, keys that you normally hold down for a while (like volume up or down) will
likely require a long press when learning. Keys that you normally give a quick press (like
the numbers, and channel up/down) will likely require a quick press when learning. If
after learning say the channel up key, you find that it changes multiple channels when
pressed once, try relearning it with a short keypress.
i. If learning the first or second keys results in continuous errors then try the following:
1. Check the IR transmitters/sensors are correctly aligned between the two remotes.
2. Adjust the distance between the two remotes to be closer (e.g. 0.5 cm) or a further
away (e.g. 5 cm) from each other.
3. Try learning the original remote keys again.
4. If problems reoccur with the same key, check the original remote key being learned –
does it transmit? Does it operate the target device?
5. Clear all learned settings and try learning again.
