Abstract:
A system and method for enabling set up of a controlling device capable of controlling a plurality of appliances, via an interactive instruction set and associated programming. The programming is accessible by a STB or other controllable appliance and is configured to appropriately display interactive instructions and prompts to a user during a user initiated set up procedure for configuration of another controllable device (e.g., DVD, VCR, DVR, etc) available to the user.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for using a first smart device and a second device cooperable with the first smart device to configure the first smart device to remotely control functional operations of a controllable appliance, the method comprising:\n receiving at the second smart device from the first smart device a plurality of communications; causing the second smart device to automatically progress through a plurality of setup procedure steps in response to each of the plurality of communications received from the first smart device wherein the plurality of setup procedure steps of the second smart device function to identify a data that is indicative of an appliance type and a command code set for use in controlling functional operations of a controllable appliance of the appliance type; and after the data that is indicative of the appliance type and the command code set for use in controlling functional operations of a controllable appliance of the appliance type has been identified by the second smart device via use of the plurality of setup procedure steps, causing the data that is indicative of the appliance type and the command code set for use in controlling functional operations of a controllable appliance of the appliance type to be provisioned to the first smart device whereupon an activation of a predetermined command input element of the first smart device will cause the first smart device to transmit a command from the command code set for controlling a corresponding functional operation of a controllable appliance of the appliance type.
