On both my boxes I have it set up so that you hit the power button and it fires up both the tv and the dct at the same time. I never switch modes ie going from cable to tv etc. It does the same on and off function for both units at the same time when I press power.
If I understand correctly, what you are trying to do is hit power and have it just turn the tv off and leave the cable box on without going out of the cable mode. I am thinking that this can not be done as in cable mode it is a default code for the box which will get shot out as well when you hit the button.
As far as I know the only way to do this will be to have to switch from cable to tv and so on and so on.
My first day with 6412 with also a dct2000. DCT 2000 remote turns off both cable box and TV. The 6412 remote is an URC model 2 (Universal/Atlas/SHAW) with 5 buttons and the skip below mute buttons.
I cannot get the remote to power ON/OFF both TV and C box units nohow. Page 18 in the remote's user guide says explicitly "how to do it" under "Using the Master Power Key". I have all buttons working to control power function for TV(Sony Bravia), DVD, Audio and VCR. But none of these units seem willing to join the "cable button" and work correctly.
Are the instructions correct on P. 18?? Other than this programming function, the remote works as designed. What's chances are that the remote is faulty for just this one programming function??
Lastly, does Shaw (FW 10.12 SW 73.45) support the PIP, Move and channel +/- buttons and function?? There is no PIP function working here. .... Thanks Chili
