Are you a Hisense TV user and bought a Spectrum cable box recently? Then, you can enjoy control over both these devices with a single remote control. To achieve this, you have to program the Spectrum remote to your Hisense TV. I understand that this is tricky for you. To ease this process for you, I have explained the procedure to do it the right way in this article.
Different Ways to Program Spectrum Remote to Hisense TV
There are two ways available to program Spectrum remote to Hisense TV, and they will be elaborated on in the upcoming headings.
Auto Code Search Method
Boot up your Hisense TV and pick up the Spectrum remote control in hand. Click the button named TV and simultaneously press the OK/Select button for a few seconds. When the TV button blinks 2 times, start clicking the Channel Up [+] button and let the remote control search for the appropriate programming code. You have to continue doing it patiently until the remote control turns off your Hisense TV.
Once your Hisense TV turns off with a particular click, the Spectrum remote is successfully paired with it. Now, you should click the TV button again and save the respective programming code. From now on, you could be able to control your Hisense Smart TV with the Spectrum remote.
Manual Pairing Method
Press and hold the TV & OK/Select buttons on the Spectrum remote and release them after the TV button blinks twice. If you are using 1060BC2 or 1060BC3 model Spectrum remotes, click on the TV button and Setup button at once till the Mode key flashes light two times.
Then, start entering the Spectrum remote codes for Hisense TV one by one (given in the following table). 1060BC2 or 1060BC3 remote users can straightaway try 5-digit codes. Once you enter the right code and the programming is done, the TV/Mode button will flash twice. If you don’t get that, you should keep trying the other codes until one works. Click the Power button and see if the TV turns off to confirm the pairing.
