There are many websites that offer free universal remote codes for all brands and combinations (e.g. www.remote-codes.com/ or www.remotecentral.com/features/remotes.htm). Within these sites, you should be able to find a four-digit code for your Phillips universal remote.
Once you have found a four-digit code, programming your universal remote control with your television converter box is straight forward and can be done reasonably quickly. In order to do so, the first step is to turn on the device you want to make work with the remote control. You will then need to hold down the ‘code search’ button until the lights switch on. Next, press and release the button on the universal remote that corresponds with this device you want to set up. Pressing this should make the light blink and then remain on. Now, enter the code you have found online from one of the websites mentioned previously. If the code works, the light will switch off. If the code is not valid then the light will continue to blink and you will need to enter an alternative universal remote code from the website. Once you have a code that appears to have worked, you should then double-check it. To do so, point the remote at the device you have just attempted to set up and press ‘power’. If it switches on or off then you have set everything up correctly, but if nothing happens you will have to look again for another code.
Your Phillips universal remote should have the function to search for a code itself. Typically the ‘code search’ function on your remote should allow you to decode 4 digits by the number of times your remote light flashes. For more information about this function, check your remote’s manual. If you do not have a copy of your universal control’s manual, it is easy to find one online.
