BT 250 REMOTE LEARNING/TEACHING & POSSIBLE FACTORY RESET


Recommended Posts

Posted

Again, apologies, it's the Canadian in me.
I just realized my first "Newbie" post I just submitted was attached to a comment I made in reference to a year old (or older) post about backlighting. So I'm gonna start fresh here. (sorry, moderators....I'm asleep at the wheel this chilly Sunday)

Does anyone know if the remote can be trained on any more than just the TV on/off button, volume up/down and input source?

Also, it seems as though while attempting to teach the BT 250 remote (using the RF method) to mimic my Hisense 55QD6N TV remote, it seems almost as though the BT taught the HISENSE remote instead of the other way around (is that even POSSIBLE??) and now the TV remote doesn't select HDMI 2 correctly (which is what I was trying to teach the BT to do! Sheesh!)

So, four questions:
1. Is it possible that I DID screw up the "brain" of the Hisense TV remote....and do ya suppose there's a way to do a "factory reset" on it to get it back to "normal"
2. Since the BT remote is said to come already programmed to control TV on/off AND TV Vol up/down with it's built in buttons.... (although I find it hard to believe that the BT remote could be factory-set with codes that would work EVERY TV out there) shouldn't it have also been able to control Input rotation with whatever code was coded in at the factory?) 
3. Can I/should I try to revert BOTH remotes back to "stock"?
4. Is it at all possible that the Hisense remote IS Bluetooth only and therefore I should forget about "teaching" it anything and just "pair" the TV with the BT remote?

I KNOW that's a handful of ????, my apologies. But if you can answer ANY of them.........GREATLY appreciated!

Sounds like a reasonable conclusion with that size of "sampling"! (I worked for Mitsubishi Consumer Electronics for about 10 years, back when they were in the TV business in Canada and I'd never experienced anything like that THEN......but ya never know when some brainchild in "development" gets a brilliant idea that sweeps through the industry........so I just thought I'd ask. Thanks again for your input.
