Programming Universal Remote for Boston Acoustics Soundbar

To program the universal remote for your Boston Acoustic soundbar, follow the steps below:

1. To ensure that the remote works properly, you need to turn both the soundbar and the device on.

2. If you select the Device and press the SETUP button on the remote, an LED will begin to blink.

4. The Device now accepts the codes listed below as the Device has entered learning mode. Add the codes one by one until you find the best one.

5. If the light stops blinking, it means that you’ve entered the correct code.

6. Most of the time, a few buttons work after adding the code, but other buttons stop working. It is because the code is not matched correctly to the Device. Therefore, you must check all the buttons to get the correct code.

Keycode Method

You can try using a password or key code if any of the mechanisms mentioned above don’t work for you.

1. Turn on the devices by pressing the Power button with the remote.

2. Select the Device and hold the Setting key until a small light appears. It gives a signal that you can make the changes now because the Device is in learner mode. 

3. It’s now time to enter the Keycode from the manual.

4. When holding the remote directly in front of the Device, press the “power on/off” button.

5. Let go of the button when the flashlight is off.

Code-Search Method

It may be possible to use code search instead of adding and checking code one by one to avoid the above method if it does not work for you. I’ll show you how to use the technique in these simple steps:

    1. Switch on the Device and look for the Setup key on the remote.
    2. Enter 9 9 1, which is a 3-digit code for programming the remote.
    3. The tiny light will begin to glow green.
    4. Control your Device by using the remote control. Please make sure that all of the buttons on the remote are functional on the Device.
    5. You could try adding a “0” before the 3-digit code if that doesn’t work. It will certainly work.

Troubleshooting Boston Acoustic Remote Issues

If Boston Acoustic Soundbar’s remote stops working for no apparent reason, try these steps to discover if there is a problem with the remote or if you need to replace it:
