Programming the Volume Control on the Philips RC122 Remote

I recently upgraded my Time Warner cable box and with it came the Philips RC122 remote. (I have to say this remote is a step backwards from my old remote in that it doesn’t have a ‘system’ on/off button. I need to individually turn on/off the TV, the cable box, and the Bose sound system. But I digress…)

I wrote an article many moons ago for the instructions to lock the volume control on my old Time Warner UR5U-8780L-TWP remote control so that even when in CBL mode the volume buttons will control the AUX device, in my case an old Bose sound system. Here’s what I found to do the same for the RC122:

1. Press and hold the SELECT/OK and CBL buttons until all device buttons blink twice.
2. Press 993. (The CBL button should blink twice.)
3. Press the AUX button. (All device buttons should blink three times.)

Pretty simple! To set the volume control back to the TV, it’s default setting, follow the same process but press the TV button in step 3.

Enjoy!
