The RC will turn on the backlight after a delay (See 5.1). The backlight will remain ON for a configurable timeout (See 5.1). The timeout will restart if any valid key is pressed while the backlight remains on.
Confidential Google Remote Control User Manual 7/5 0.1, RC1534059/01B DRAFT When the remote is stationary, and no keys are pressed (timeout from the last key pressed), the backlight will turn OFF. 4.3 TV Input Key When the TV Input Key is pressed, the navigation keys (UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, OK) will switch to IR mode for 5s (this value is configurable). If any other key (such as MENU) is pressed before the 5s timeout, this will cancel the IR mode. The navigation keys will revert to its previously operating mode. 4.4 IR Mode The host can configure the Remote to enable / disable IR mode). This is meant to be used in cases where the TV box can use CEC to control the TV; hence IR control is not needed for the TV. In the factory default state, the RCU should generate IR codes for the TV until/unless the TV box sends a command to ‘Disable TV IR’. 4.5 Database Function & Learn Function 4.5.1 The Database key table The RC has Database for TV device. The keys supporting the Database are described as below. All the other keys will act the same as the RC in TV_BOX mode.

The procedure is as following. 1. Press Digit 1 and Digit 5 simultaneously for 3 seconds. After 3 seconds the TV Power key LED will blink twice and remain on. Release all keys. 2. Enter a learnable key, the TV Power key LED gives a short inverse blink. After the key is released, the LED will start blinking. 3. Hold the source RC (in of sight) at an optimum distance (3cm to 6cm) and continuously transmit the signal by pressing and holding the key from source RC that you want to learn into the RC. 4. The LED gives 2 blinks and stays on if learning is successful and the new learnt codes will replace the previous one. Release the key from the source RC. The LED will give an error blink and stays on if the learning is failed. The previous key code is kept. 5. User can learn other keys or retry learning on the same key by following step 2 to 5. 6. Press the <Exit> key to exit to the use-mode. After pressing the OK key, the LED will turn off and return to use-mode. Notes:  If no key is pressed within 30s after enter into the learn setup mode, the RC will return to use-mode with an error blink to indicate time out.  If no signal for the RC to learn within 30s after pressing a learnable key, the RC will return to use-mode with an error blink to indicate time out.  If the learnable key has been pressed for 30s, the RC will enter into Stuck Key Time-out. 4.6 Pairing with TV Box BT Pairing of RC with TV Box will take place in following 3 situations:  when RC and TV Box are out of the box and install for the 1st time  when existing RC is lost or broken and a new replacement RC is added  when TV Box is being replaced or reset, and added to work with existing RC The RC interacts with the TV Box UI via IR, or BT. By factory default or after a master reset, the RC does not contain any BT pairing information. The RC will default to be in TV_BOX Mode. The RC will send TV_BOX IR Code. In BT mode, the TV_BOX Power key will start to use RF until the BT link is disconnected (either due to TV Box out of range or TV Box is off or TV Box is being replaced). BT pairing is described in more detail at section BT Pairing.
Confidential Google Remote Control User Manual 9/5 0.1, RC1534059/01B DRAFT Each RC should pair with 1 TV Box. When trying to pair a previously paired RC to a TV Box, the previously paired information will be replaced on both the TV Box and RC. Before pairing, the TV_BOX Power key will only send IR code. After Pairing the TV_BOX power key will send both IR and BT. All other keys will send BT codes. 4.6.1 BT Pairing (Out-of-the-box / Replacement RC) When the batteries are inserted for the first time, the RC is not paired to any TV Box. To start pairing, the following procedure applies. 1) If any key is pressed in TV_BOX mode (except <TV Power> and <Input>), the TV_BOX IR codes will be sent. When there are no key presses for more than 1sec, the RC will starts the Pairing Process. 2) The RC starts the pairing process by sending an IR Pairing Code to the TV Box according to IR Pairing Code Format (See Appendix) 3) If the key press is the TV_BOX Power key, the RC will send the TV_BOX Power key IR code. When the TV_BOX Power key is released, the RC will then send the IR Pairing code. 4) The TV Box will start the pairing process on receiving the IR Pairing code. 5) If the pairing fails, the RC will goes to sleep mode. 6) If the pairing is ok, the TV_BOX will then send a Device ID (using RF) to the RC. The RC can now control this TV Box only. 7) Subsequently, when the TV_BOX Power key is pressed, the IR code will contain the Device ID and Command Code information (See Appendix). The pairing process will timeout after 30 seconds. After 30 seconds, the RC will goes to sleep mode. The RC will remain in an “unpaired” state. 4.6.2 BT Pairing (Replacement of TV Box or TV Box Reset) 1. The RC needs to be setup again in order to work with a new TV Box or TV Box is resetted. 2. The user will need to press “OK” and Digit “2” key simultaneously for 3 seconds to start the pairing process manually as below. 3. The RC starts the pairing process by sending an IR Pairing Code to the TV Box according to IR Pairing Code Format (See Appendix). 4. The TV Box must check and confirm the data are correct with the Checksum. 5. The TV Box will then start the pairing process. 6. If the pairing fails, the RC will goes to sleep mode. 7. If the pairing is ok, the TV_BOX will then send a Device ID (using RF) to the RC. The RC can now control this TV Box only.
Confidential Google Remote Control User Manual 10/5 0.1, RC1534059/01B DRAFT 8. Subsequently, when the TV_BOX Power Key is pressed, the IR code will contain the Device ID and IR Command Code information (See Appendix). 9. The pairing will timeout after 30 seconds. After 30 seconds, the RC will goes to sleep mode. The RC will remain in the “unpaired” state. If the pairing fails, or pairing timeout, the RC will fall back to IR mode only. The user needs to do re-pair by pressing and releasing any key or pressing <OK>and <2> keys (repeat step 2) with the TV Box. 4.7 BT Link Disconnected The BT Link could be disconnected, due to RF interference, RC out of range, or TV Box is off. The RC can only detect a BT Link disconnection in Active or Standby Mode. The RC may delete the pairing info, depending on the Configuration item (See 5.1). If the pairing info is deleted, the RC will switch to IR mode, until the BT Link is reconnected again. 4.8 Wake To Listen When the remote is paired, and RC is in sleep mode, the RC will wake up every 15 minutes briefly to listen for any RF data from the host. If there is no RF data, the RC will return to sleep for another 15 minutes. 4.9 Factory Reset Pressing the key “DEL” and “TV BOX” together for 3 sec will erase the BT pairing information. The “TV BOX” LED will blink to indicate successful reset. Pressing the key “DEL” and “TV” together for 3 sec will erase all learn data, and Database codeset. The “TV” LED will blink to indicate successful reset. 4.10 Power Management The RC has 3 operating modes. 4.10.1 Active mode In the active mode, the RC is either sending IR or RF code (depending on the Configuration). 4.10.2 Standby mode RC idle but maintain BT link connection in low power sniff mode. During STANDBY mode, BT link is still maintained with TV Box. Any keypress will set the RC back to ACTIVE mode almost immediately. Once back to ACTIVE mode, the RC will execute the key events. 4.10.3 Sleep mode After remain in STANDBY for 60s, the RC will enter SLEEP. Press any key or pickup up the remote will WAKE UP the RC to ACTIVE mode. When RC wakes up from SLEEP, the Remote will attempt to reconnect to the host. There will be re-connection latency depending on the BT link condition and RF interference of the surrounding. Once the BT link has been established, the RC will execute the key events.
