Initial set up without original

is there a way to do the initial set up for a Onn Roku TV.  I purchased the TV for a rental property and it didn’t work but now I cannot find the original remote. Am I able to purchase a Roku remote or a universal remote that will enable me to do the initial set up on the TV.  

thanks for any information or your guidance on this topic.

There should be remotes that work, but I suggest contacting ONN customer support for specific information.

Re: Initial set up without original

Remember that Roku TVs use a different IR remote than the Roku players, so you can't simply get a "Roku Remote". There are generic IR remotes that have Roku TVs in their database, but you might need one that specifies Onn TV as well. If the TV has an Ethernet jack you could make a wired network connection and then use the Roku app on a phone or tablet. But if all you have is WiFi then you must have a working remote. 

Roku does sell Roku TV remotes in their accessory store, and you might be able to find a new remote in places that sell electronics, such as a Walmart or such store.
