Pair your XR8 and Xfinity
Remote to get started.
Your Xnity Remote can be paired
with the XR8, allowing you to control
your set-top box or DTA even when
the device is placed out of line-of-
sight (for example, in an entertainment
center or behind your TV). Xnity
Remotes can be identied by an XR
logo on the back of the remote.
See the “Compatible Devices” section
on the back of this user guide to verify
that your set-top box or DTA and
remote are compatible with the XR8.
To pair your XR8 and Xnity Remote,
follow the steps below:
HERE’S HOW:
1. Turn on your TV and set-top box
or DTA.
2. Plug the XR8 into the IR Input port*
located on the rear panel of your
set-top box or DTA.
*Note: This port may also be
labeled IR, IR-In, IR Receive, or
EXT IR IN.
3. Wait 3-5 seconds for the solid red
LED on top of the XR8 to turn off.
It’s simple to pair your XR8 with your
Xfinity Remote for Out-of-Sight control.

FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS ABOUT PAIRING
:QDuring pairing, why does the LED
blink red, then green, then red on
the Xnity Remote?
:AThe Xnity Remote you are trying
to pair with the XR8 cannot nd
the XR8. Unplug the XR8 and plug
it back in, making sure the red
LED on top of the XR8 comes on
for 3-5 seconds. Then, repeat the
steps to pair the XR8 and Xnity
Remote.
:QWhen paired, why does the LED
blink green, then red on the
Xnity Remote when a button is
pressed?
:AThe XR8 may have lost power or
may be out of communication
range. Try moving closer to your
set-top box or DTA and make sure
the XR8 is securely connected. If
this does not x the issue, follow
the steps to re-pair the XR8 and
Xnity Remote.
