A universal remote control and a method for programming a universal remote control allows a user to quickly and easily identify a set of remote control signal formats that include a desired signal format and then individually test the signal formats in the identified set to identify the desired signal format. A reference code, or other identification information, associated with the desired signal format. In the code search mode of operation, the present universal remote control generates and transmits one of a plurality of sets of signal formats stored in a memory circuit (RAM, ROM) in response to the user pressing a first control key (76). The user repeatedly presses the first control key and observes the controlled device to identify a set of signal formats that includes the desired signal format. After the desired set of signal formats is identified, the user presses either a second or a third control key (74, 78) to individually transmit each signal format in the identified set of signal formats. The user repeatedly presses the second and third control keys and observes the controlled device to identify the desired signal format. |
