How do I program the Channel Shortcut keys on my Essential 6 remote?

Firstly select the device you use to watch live TV.

Now you can program the channel shortcuts:

  1. Hold down the SETUP key and the Channel Macro key (for example de red key) until the LED blinks twice
  2. Enter the first channel number (up to 6 keys)
  3. Press and release the Channel Macro key
  4. Enter the next channel number
  5. Press and release the Channel Macro key
  6. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 for each channel shortcut you want to add (up to 8)
  7. After entering the last channel number you want, press and hold the SETUP key.

The LED will blink twice and the shortcuts are now programmed.

Note: You can reprogram each of the different color keys with different lists of channel numbers, by holding down the Setup and a different colored key at step 1, and pressing and releasing the same key at step 3.
