A system and method for more efficient and simple configuration of a universal remote control device is disclosed. The inventive system and method includes a universal remote control device which incorporates a transceiver. Further, end user devices, which the universal remote control issues function command include a transceiver. The universal remote control device polls end user devices, for each type of supported end user device, with a query that is unique for each type of end user device. In response to such polling, each polled end user device responds to the universal remote control device with its unique device identifier code. The universal remote control device, using the received unique device identifier code, automatically programs/configures itself to transmit commands to the respective end user devices.
