Second RCU for 252 combo

[MickeEst]

Hi

I would like to ask, if Ariva's smaller remote control RCU-540 works with Ariva Ferguson 252 Combo? It has originally RCU-650 universal remote.

I need simpler second remote for elderly person, who find using RCU-650 is too complicated due the ring-shaped knobs at the middle of that remote unit.

Separate knobs on RCU-540 seems to be easier to understand and operate. Only numbers, CH up and down, FAV list, OK, BACK and arrow knobs are necessary to work for everyday use.

Thanks

To be say previous question more simply - does this

work with Ariva 252 Combo?

Need only basic commands, like channel change and selection between FAV-lists.

Thanks

To end my monologue and answer this question - YES, this RCU-540 remote works brilliantly with Ariva Ferguson 252combo.

I ordered it and by first impressions this remote is more comfortable to use than original RCU-650. Only thing to miss is that simpler remote can not work with other appliances like TV-set. RCU-650 will do.
