From the Manufacturer This is what the Mastercontrol RF10 is all about: the RF10 is designed to operate up to 8 different AV components and is pre-programmed to operate virtually all brands of TV, VCR, DVD and CD Players, cable set top boxes, satellite receivers, TiVo® and other DVRs, audio components, tape decks, multimedia PCs, satellite radio, Ipod®, X-Box®, lighting controls and other custom installation products. It also offers an impressive lineup of special features designed to provide you with many time-saving conveniences and enhance your overall entertainment experience. Pre-programmed Codes The RF10 is guaranteed to control all your components because of the extensive library of thousands of AV component codes pre-programmed into the remote. Learning Capability The RF10 can actually "learn" commands from other remote controls (old or new), one button at a time, so it will always be up-to-date and never become obsolete. The RF10 is the last remote you’ll ever need. MacroPower™ Single-button Control MacroPower is a unique feature that enables you to turn all of your components ON or OFF at the same time, simply with the press of one button. What would normally take multiple remotes and button pushes, the RF10 can accomplish with the press of one button. In addition to the Power ON or OFF buttons, any of the Component buttons can be set to be "macro" buttons. SimpleSound® Total Volume Control SimpleSound is a dynamic feature that gives you total volume control over all the components in your system, even those without their own built-in volume control such as TiVo, DVD and VCR, thus saving you the hassle and inconvenience of constantly needing to switch between Component modes on the remote. With SimpleSound you can set the RF10’s volume control buttons to always control the sound in your system, even when you’re in VCR or DVD mode, without switching back to AUDIO or TV. Even more exciting, SimpleSound has what is called a ‘Punch Through’ feature and is not limited strictly to volume control. Fully Backlit Keypad This makes the RF10 easy to use in the dark or in dim lighting conditions. Simply press the LIGHT button, conveniently located on the side of the remote, to backlight all the keypad buttons and the LCD screen. To turn off the backlight press the LIGHT button again, or just wait 10 seconds (the backlight automatically shuts itself off). "Barrier-free" RF (Radio Frequency) Capability Of all the RF10 features, this is probably the most exciting. When used in combination with the optional PowerBlaster™ [sold seperately], the RF10 becomes an amazing remote control powerhouse that sends multi-directional RF (Radio Frequency) signals that pass through walls, doors and floors – both indoors and outdoors. This changes everything...it enables you to control components that are completely out-of-sight, up to 100’ away. The PowerBlaster picks up the RF10’s radio frequency signals from any direction, regardless of distance, so the RF10 doesn’t need to be pointed directly at any component. Just imagine – no more pointing! Now you can close your entertainment center doors, hide your components, and still control them with ease. Control outdoor speakers on your patio. Control your components anywhere! DVD Programming Guide The DVD Guide supplied with the RF10 will assist you in programming your remote and customizing it to satisfy your specific needs by guiding you through a simple, easy, and quick step-by-step process.

The best feedback September 9 found this review helpful. Very good universal remote, but .... By Perry Dillner top programming is easy, the keys are positioned very well. This "is" the last remote you'll ever need. I have other previous model and could not be happier. Light is a good idea when they watch their favorite shows at night, but this model has a "red" light backlight soil is very difficult to see. The second model had a normal "white green" lower back that worked well. I'm not sure why you chnage to return to it. I would have rated five stars in a different way because it's hard to see the light .. 3 of 3 people found this review helpful. Best universal remote control for high-end receivers and new Blu-ray for GreatStuffNow've used several brands of universal remotes in the past 12 years, and I think this is the best. I've never been able to get a remote to control all my components satisfactory so far. I bought a new Sharp Aquos TV, Panasonic Blu-Ray, Onkyo Receiver 100 watts and more I have an AT & T Motorola Uversa field. Since some of these elements are new, could work no remote codes (although the Onkyo remote control has come close). This distance is not preprogrammed codes were, or ... But ... You can program this remote to do all the other remotes do. It took an hour or two, but now he works ALL COMPONENTS! Woo hoo! I especially like the fact that a receptor-specific keys (such as DTS, THX, DD) as the universal remotes do not have. So if I want to switch to THX sound, I just press Shift + THX on my remote and it goes ... I want to remote receivers. Moreover, the possibility that remote macros endless ... and includes a control break, so you can make a macro to pause for a few seconds (while the component is turned on, for example) before the next step. This is very useful from components such as Blu-Ray to slow down high-end receivers. The keys are well spaced, and the light switch on the side is brilliant, it will take some time before this set that you want to get ... but it's worth it! 2 of 2 people found this review helpful. Somewhat complicated, but it works ... By engineer Norm It works well, feels good in my hand, and does more than I needed to do. I personally like this remote compared to some of the others I've used. The remote controls my box with the optional RM-blaster unit, Panasonic plasma TV, VCR, DVD, and probably something I would like in the future. Be prepared to spend the time to program special functions, like turning the TV off when the VCR's remote control and function, as an example ... but everything works, including the beautiful red illuminated buttons that you can see if you are from Mars.
