We program the remotes to use both RF and IR at the same time (radio frequency and infrared). So if it has stopped working or is not functioning properly, it is RARELY a programming issue or a problem with the remote itself. They do not lose their programming, even if the batteries die. This may not be the exact remote you have, but a good bit of the troubleshooting will work for older models as well.
The URC MX-780 remote is the go to remote for us and has been for years now. There are several things you need to keep in mind before moving further. So we figured it is about time to do a short troubleshooting write up. These remotes are not cheap and you have to be a URC certified dealer to program them or add new equipment to the system. Their remotes are solid, reliable, and short of your dog getting a hold of it we rarely have to replace them. It is a product that we believe in and trust. I recently purchased a TV from a estate/garage sale.We have been selling, installing, and programming Universal Remote Control (URC) remotes in our custom home A/V systems for well over 10 years now.
The TV is a samsung 60" LED and it came with a remote control. The remote was a URC MX-780 and does not controll the TV for some reason. At the time i knew nothing about URC but the remote was cool with the LCD screen. Once home i tried to program the remote with no luck. So i started to do some research and found that this remote needs software to program it. I contacted URC and was told that the software was only available to dealers. I then contacted my local vendor who is about 50 miles away. I was told tough luck unless i pay for them to come and program it for me but i would not be given software even though they can give out software. I would love to learn more about URC and the programming needed but i dont have the luxury of attending classes at the moment. As an electrician i have installed Sonos systems and various other stereo/wifi setups. I would like to get the software to try and learn the URC setup. It could be something i can add to my "can do" things for customers. I know its available online somewhere and many of you will frown apon me acquiring it behind URC's back.
