11. IR controller connection
Refer to the diagram on page 9, follow the instructions on the screen and press OK.
12. Enter the receiver code
Now key in your receiver’s satellite code number (refer to the table on the next page), then press OK to validate. If the brand or model of your satellite or cable receiver is not shown, try other numbers in the list displayed. If unsuccessful, contact your retailer.
Note: your DTH 8000 asks you to display channel 2 on the satellite receiver. However, with some receivers, it is preferable to display channel 0, 02 or 002.
13. Press OK to start the test
The DTH 8000 sends a signal to your satellite receiver via the infrared controller cell.
A configuration menu will appear as the satellite receiver positions itself on channel 12 (check that channel number 12 appears on the display panel of the satellite receiver, sometimes fleetingly, and even if no picture is visible on the TV screen).
If the satellite receiver is not on channel 12, select No with the 
or 
keys and press OK.
Your DTH 8000 sends a new command to the satellite receiver. (Several tests are possible, depending on the brand of your satellite receiver).
If the satellite receiver goes on to channel 12, select Yes with the 
or 
keys and press OK. If unsuccessful, repeat the settings, starting at step 11, but with the satellite receiver positioned on channel 0, 02 or 002 instead of 2.
A channel sorting window will appear. The picture of the selected channel is shown in the background. Refer to page 6 to sort the stored channels or set the time on your DTH 8000 if necessary.
Your DTH 8000 is now ready to control your satellite receiver to program recordings.
