Congratulations on your purchase of the RCU1010RF Universal Learning Remote with Touchscreen
and Built-in RF Transmitter with additional Remote Sender Cone. This remote is one of the most
sophisticated, yet easy to use, remote controls available today. With the RCU1010RF, juggling
multiple remote controls is a thing of the past! This one unit controls up to nine components,
including the most popular brands of TV, VCR, DVD, SAT, PVR/DVR, CBL/AUX, CD and AUDIO
equipment, even when the component’s IR sensor isn’t visible.

TOUCHSCREEN and
Built-in RF Transmitter
Remote Sender Cone included
Your RCU1010RF has a built-in RF transmitter that allows your remote control unit to transmit
commands to your components using both Infrared (IR) and Radio Frequency (RF) signals. Since
the RCU1010RF works on radio frequency, the remote does not have to be pointed directly at
the component’s IR sensor, which adds great flexibility when setting up your home electronic
components. The addition of the included Remote Sender Cone and IR Extender means you
can control your components even when your remote can’t see them.
The RCU1010RF has the ability to learn commands from your existing remotes, and the SmartMacro SM
feature allows multiple commands to be executed with a single keypress. The RCU1010RF is easy to
use, easy to program, and it gives you total control—at the touch of your fingertips!
Your RCU1010RF transmits signals in infrared (IR) and radio frequency (RF). Most remote controls
transmit only in IR and must be pointed in a direct line of sight with the IR sensor on your electronic
component in order to function properly. Because the RCU1010RF has radio frequency capabilities,
the remote control does not have to be pointed at the receiver; in fact, it doesn’t even have to be in
the same room! The RF signals go through your whole house and enable you to control all of your
components wherever you are!
What advantages does that bring to you and your home electronic equipment? Plenty!
First, you can place your component (such as a VCR, DVD, etc.) in a closed cabinet, and the
RCU1010RF will transmit the proper signals to it. That gives you great flexibility in setting up
your home entertainment system.
Secondly, if your satellite receiver is upstairs, the RCU1010RF allows you to change the channel
while downstairs. (Additional wiring needed).
Thirdly, the RCU1010RF transmits through walls, floors, ceilings—even to your deck outdoors so
you can control your component(s) wherever you are. For example, if you are outside on your deck
enjoying music on your wireless speakers, you can use the RCU1010RF to adjust the volume without
going back into the house!
The RCU1010RF is packed with features you want—and its RF capabilities make it the perfect remote
to give you added control and flexibility.
What’s So Great About RF Technology?
