 +==== TVIP IR remote with multiple IR code pages ====
 +
 +IR remote with multiple code pages has **"​MC"​** tag at the bottom right corner of the TVIP logo.
 +\\
 +TVIP IR codes could in some cases be the same as codes on a TV or some other equipment. You can change IR code page to resolve such issues. There are 3 different IR code pages. The first "​0"​ code page is the same as on a regular TVIP remote.\\
 +\\
 +:!: Please note, that IR code page change is only supported on TVIP mediacenters running OS Linux-Qt with firmwares 4.0.13 and higher.\\
 +\\
 +Steps to change code page:
 +  - Press "​Settings"​ (at the left of S.INFO) and "​Recall"​ (at the left of "​0"​) at the same time. Remote will switch to the next code page (totally 3 code pages).
 +  - Point the remote to the mediacenter,​ press "​S.INFO"​ button and hold it for 10 seconds. Mediacenter will display a message about changed code page.
 +
 +==== TVIP remote with IR and Bluetooth technologies ====
 +Some TVIP mediacenters have dual IR+Bluetooth remote controls. These remotes have **"​BT"​** tag at the bottom right corner of the TVIP logo.
 +\\
 +Dual remote uses Bluetooth connection if possible. Otherwise it uses IR.\\
 +\\
 +Possible statuses of a dual remote:
 +  * Single LED blink after a single key press means that remote uses Bluetooth connection.
 +  * Multiple LED blink after a single key press means that remote uses IR.
 +  * Fast LED blinking means that remote is connecting to a mediacenter.
 +
 +Usually, a dual remote connects to a compatible mediacenter over Bluetooth protocol automatically.\\
 +Steps to pair remote manually:
 +  - Use a thin tool to press and hold the button located at the bottom of TVIP mediacenter. Hold it for 10 seconds. Mediacenter will start searching for a new BT remote.
 +  - Press and hold INFO and EPG keys on the remote at the same time until LED starts blinking.
 +  - When mediacenter finds the remote, remote will start blinking fast for a couple of seconds. Then connection should be established.
 +
 +:!: Please note: usage of dual Bluetooth+IR remote is only recommended in pair with a mediacenter that supports Bluetooth. Otherwise, performance will be lower (compared to general IR remote) and battery life will be shorter.
