The SETUP button is used to setup the remote to
operate your TV, VCR, etc. You can either setup the
remote using the code for your brand of product, from
the code tables (on separate sheet), or you can search
through the library of codes until you find a code that
works for your product.
Please refer to “Programming with Code Search” on page
10 for more information on using the code search feature
to learn how to search through the library of codes for
your products.
Power-On Default
The remote powers on in TV mode.
Battery Saver
Your remote automatically turns off if the buttons are
depressed more than 30 seconds. This will save your
batteries should your remote get stuck in a place where
the buttons remain depressed (e.g., between the sofa
cushions).
NOTE: You can store any kind of code under any mode
(except TV). I.E. you can store a VCR code under the
DVD button, or a DVD code under the CBL/SAT
button, etc. However, you can only store TV codes
under the TV button.
Code Saver
You will have up to 10 minutes to change the batteries
in your remote without losing codes you have
programmed. However, do not press any buttons until
batteries are installed in the remote. If buttons are
pressed without batteries in the remote, all codes will be
lost.
SETUP
TV Volume/Mute Punch Through Feature
The TV Volume/Mute punch through feature lets you
control the Volume and Mute function of your TV in any
mode programmed to be a VCR, DVD, CABLE or SAT
device, without needing to change to TV mode.
VCR/DVD Punch Through Feature
This remote lets you Punch through to the last VCR or
DVD device used. Normally other types of remotes only
punch-through (from another Mode) on the 6 VCR
buttons, to the device programmed under the VCR
Mode button. This is not much use if you are using a
DVD programmed under a Mode other than VCR. This
remote punches-through to the last VCR or DVD device
you used. For example, if you have 3 DVD/VCR devices
programmed into this remote, the last one you accessed
on the remote will be the one that has control of the 6
VCR/DVD buttons when in any other mode.
To operate buttons
below this line you
must Initialize the
remote into a Freewire
Messenger Hub. See

Initializing the remote into the Messenger
Hub
To synchronize, move the MESSENGER HUB slide
switch to LEARN.
A Quick Note Before You Set Up The MESSENGER
HUB:
While facing the MESSENGER HUB, press and hold any
of the three “ON” buttons on the TV REMOTE for 5
seconds - Figure 1. Be sure to see the green light flash
on the MESSENGER HUB. The flash will indicate that
the TV REMOTE is now synchronized with the
MESSENGER HUB.
WARNING: For indoor use only.
Each receiver has a specific address made up of a
HOUSE CODE (bottom dial) and a Unit Code (upper
dial) which is used to communicate with the
MESSENGER HUB.
The function of the HOUSE CODE is to prevent
interference from another FREEWIRE system. If at any
time, you experience interference with another system
please choose another setting for your HOUSE CODE
A - P. The letter selected must be the same on all
RECEIVERS and the MESSENGER HUB.
Step 1:
Plug MESSENGER HUB into any operational AC outlet
within your home. Rotate antenna to the upright
position. Open the front door to expose control panel.
NOTE: Placing the MESSENGER HUB on the inside
wall closest to driveway or entry way, will often
maximize range of the TV REMOTE.
Step 2:
Select a HOUSE CODE on the MESSENGER HUB, any
letter A - P. (Note: The house code you select for the
MESSENGER HUB will dictate what letter you will select
for all of the RECEIVERS you plan to control with this
MESSENGER HUB.)
Step 3:
Select a UNIT CODE on the MESSENGER HUB, any
number 1 - 16. The number and corresponding color
you pick will control the lamp outlet located on the
underside of this MESSENGER HUB. (If you select the
same number and same house code for any additional
receivers on this system they will operate in
conjunction with this hub.)
Figure 1.
Now, move the slide switch on the MESSENGER HUB
to RUN.
(Note: Door cannot be closed while MESSENGER HUB
is in the LEARN mode.)
Step 5:
Turn lamp on first, then plug into the receptacle on the
underside of the MESSENGER HUB. Use only
incandescent bulbs up to 500W. Be sure the Lamp has
been turned on prior to plugging into MESSENGER
HUB.
Press the Local Lamp “ON/OFF” button on the
MESSENGER HUB to check that the MESSENGER HUB
is operating correctly. You will hear a “click” when the
MESSENGER HUB turns this lamp on and off.
You are now ready to operate the lamp connected to
this MESSENGER HUB with the TV REMOTE.
Step 4:
Synchronize your TV REMOTE with your MESSENGER
HUB so they understand how to communicate with
each other. (Note: Any additional remote that is
introduced to the system must also be synchronized.)

Freewire Operation, cont.
A Quick Note before You Set Up the TVREMOTE:
WARNING: For indoor use only.
Open door to the TV REMOTE to expose the colored
dial shown in Figure 2 below.
Freewire Operation, cont.
Step 1:
Set the dial on your TV REMOTE to the same Unit Code
(color) that you selected on the MESSENGER HUB.
Step 2:
Each of the 3 individual codes on that color can be
turned on and off individually, using the 3 white ON/
OFF buttons located just above the dial as shown in
Figure 2 on the previous page.
Example: Blue 11 - Controlled by the top row, left switch
Blue 12 - Controlled by the top row, center switch
Blue 13 - Controlled by the top row, right switch.
Figure 2
The small round ON button and OFF buttons shown in
Figure 3 let you turn on or off ALL Receivers set to
that color.
The numbers and colors on the TV REMOTE’s dial
match the numbers and colors on the MESSENGER
HUB and LAMP RECEIVERS.
Figure 3
The colors on the dial for the Unit Code can be used to
divide your home into zones with up to 3 dedicated Unit
Codes per color (except red which only has one Unit
Code.) (e.g. Green = Living Room)
The numbers are used to differentiate one receiver from
another in each color/zone.
Reference Label Set Up
For your convenience, a blank reference label is located
on the back of your TV REMOTE. Write your own
customized applications on this label.
Example: Red Unit Codes have been selected for the
BULB RECEIVER in the Entrance
Gray Unit Codes have been selected for the
RECEIVERS in the Dining Room
Green Unit Codes have been selected for the RECEIVER
in the Living Room etc.
16
You should now be able to turn the lamp on and off
with the corresponding button on the TV REMOTE.
Note: You may have to press and momentarily hold the
button before it activates.

Moods
Camera operation
A Quick Note before You Program the Mood Settings:
In the Lamp Receiver section you learned how to set up
individual LAMP RECEIVERs. These LAMP
RECEIVERs are turned on and off by pressing the
appropriate rocker switch that corresponds to the
receivers unique UNIT CODE. The purpose of the
MOOD buttons are to link multiple receivers (up to 4)
so that they can be turned on or off by the MOOD
buttons.
Example: If you have a LAMP RECEIVER in one room
and it is set to the number 7 on its UNIT CODE and you
have another LAMP RECEIVER in another room and it
is set up to the number 13 on its UNIT CODE, the two
lamps can be turned on at the same time using a
MOOD.
See the setup instructions that come with Freewire
cameras and follow the instructions to install your first
camera. As soon as you install your first camera and
connect the receiver to your TV, you will see a picture
on your TV (the camera powers up in the ON state when
you first plug it in). You can then try it out with the
FWMR remote, as described below, to see that you can
turn it off and on by remote control, before continuing
with the installation of additional cameras.
Step 1:
With the MESSENGER HUB still plugged into an AC
outlet, set the slide switch to LEARN.
Step 2:
While facing the MESSENGER HUB, press MOOD 1 ON
switch on the TV REMOTE. The MESSENGER HUB’s
green indicator light will flash.
Step 3:
Set the UNIT CODE dial on the TV REMOTE to match
the UNIT CODE on the LAMP RECEIVER that you want
to turn on and off. Press on the rocker switch
corresponding to that LAMP RECEIVER. Wait for the
MESSENGER HUB indicator to flash indicating the code
has been stored in the MOOD function.
Step 4:
Repeat step 3 a maximum of 3 more times to link up to 4
LAMP RECEIVERs / BULB RECEIVERs with that MOOD
key. The 4 LAMP RECEIVERs can be in any combination
of UNIT CODES.
Step 5:
Return the slide switch on the MESSENGER HUB to
RUN. The ON/OFF button of MOOD1 will now turn on
and off all of the LAMP RECEIVERs / BULB RECEIVERs
that were linked in Step 4. There may be up to a 3 second
delay between the time that you press the button and
the time that the lights respond.
Step 6:
To set up MOOD 2 key, repeat steps 1 thru 5
substituting MOOD 2 key for MOOD 1.
NOTE: Pressing either MOOD ON key while in LEARN
mode clears all stored codes for that MOOD.
18
Freewire cameras work like regular Freewire Lamp
Receivers and Appliance Receivers so you can turn
them on and off by using the dial on the remote to
select the color and number for the power supply that
the camera is connected to, and then press the ON and
OFF buttons above the colored wheel to turn the
selected camera on and off.
However, you can have more than one camera installed,
and since the cameras transmit the video and sound to
the same receiver that’s connected to your TV, you
must ensure that you only ever have one camera turned
on at the same time. To ensure this happens the camera
power supplies are “smart.” You set them in groups of
three numbers corresponding to the colors on the
remote’s dial. Then when you turn on one of the
cameras in the group of three, any camera in that group
that was presently on automatically turns off - so you
don’t have to remember to turn off one camera before
you turn on another camera, (as long as they are set to
the same color).
You can have cameras set to different colors but in that
case you must remember tun turn one camera off before
you turn another camera on.
Also, setting cameras in groups of three on the same
color lets you use the Camera Scan buttons. To use this
feature you first turn on any camera in the selected
color, using one of the three ON buttons above the
color wheel, then press the Scan forward (or backward)
button. Each time you press the Scan button the next
(or previous) camera in the selected color turns on (and
the previously on camera in that group automatically
turns off).

Troubleshooting
Remote does not operate your A/V product.
• Press the mode button of the product you want to
control.
• Program the remote with a new code.
• Install new batteries. (You might have to reprogram
your remote after installing new batteries.)
• Remote may not be compatible with your product.
Remote does not operate some features of your product.
• Program remote with a new code.
• Remote may not be able to operate all features of
your product or button names might be different
than your product.
Red Indicator blinks after you program a product code.
• Remote did not accept the code.
• Try to program the code again or try a different
code.
DIFFICULTY PROGRAMMING RECEIVERS
If you are experiencing problems when programming the
BULB RECEIVER, it may be due to electrical interference
on the power lines caused by large appliances such as
refrigerators or TV’s. To avoid the interference, move the
Receiver while it is being programmed to a different wall
outlet that is further away from large appliances.
SOME RECEIVERS DON’T RESPOND
Most houses are fed from a 240 volt service which is
then split into two phases of 120 volts each in the circuit
breaker panel. The most commonly encountered problem
with systems which use the existing house wiring to
transmit signals is that the signals are received by some
Receivers, but not by others. For example, the
MESSENGER HUB controls some lights but not others
or controls some lights intermittently.
This can happen sometimes when the Receiver to be
controlled is on the opposite phase of the house wiring
to the phase which the MESSENGER HUB is connected
to. If some of the Receivers are not working it may be
necessary to:
• move the Receiver to a different wall outlet to test that
it works. If it still doesn’t work:
• move the Receiver to a different room. If it still doesn’t
work:
• move the Receiver to the closest outlet that the
MESSENGER HUB is plugged into or move the
MESSENGER HUB to the closest outlet to the Receiver
that is not working.
22
Troubleshooting, cont.
RECEIVERS TURN ON BY THEMSELVES
If it is suspected that Receivers have turned on or off by
themselves, it is possible that a neighbor has a
FREEWIRE or compatible system, which could result in
unexpected operation of both systems. Unplug all
FREEWIRE devices immediately until (1) the interference
is identified and eliminated through selection of a
different HOUSE CODE to ensure that neither system
causes unintended operation of the other system or (2) a
blocking filter, Black and Decker Model number PZZ01,
is installed. Call 1-888-678-7278 to order. Professional
installation recommended. If you cannot identify the
source of interference by talking with neighbors who are
using a FREEWIRE or compatible system and you do
not want to install a blocking filter, or if you have any
questions about identifying or eliminating interference,
please call 1-800544-6986 before plugging in or using
any FREEWIRE device.
THREE WAY BULBS
Three way bulbs may be used, however, only one level
of brightness can be activated using the Freewire
system. To change brightness level you will need to turn
the switch at the lamp to the desired level of brightness.
NOTE: When using the BULB RECEIVER, you cannot
control the lamp by the lamps switch. Turning the lamp
switch off will cause the BULB RECEIVER to go into
program mode and will need to be reprogrammed.
WIRELESS INTERCOMS AND BABY MONITORS
Intercom and monitoring systems, including baby
monitors, that use the house wiring to transmit signals
can “block out” FREEWIRE transmissions while the
intercom or monitoring system is in “permanent
transmit” or “talk” mode. It is NOT possible to have a
wireless intercom or monitoring system and a
MESSENGER HUB operating in the same house. It is
possible that a neighbor’s wireless intercom or
monitoring system could cause unexpected operation,
including failure to operate, of your FREEWIRE system,
or that your FREEWIRE SYSTEM could cause
