Remote Control

DSS® Satellite Dish Picks up the satellite’s coded program information and relays it to your DSS® receiver. (Your satellite dish may be installed in different locations on or around your house. The satellite dish must, however, be pointed in a southern direction toward the satellite.)

DSS® Receiver Receives the TV program information and sends it to your TV or VCR.

Telephone Jack Connects to the phone jack on the back of the DSS® receiver. The DSS® receiver uses a toll-free number once a month to update your access card. This update only takes a few seconds and ensures that you will have continuous service. The system automatically hangs up if you pick up the phone when the DSS® receiver is calling out.

Television If your television is remote controllable, you can program the DSS® Universal TV Remote to change channels and volume.

DSS® TV Universal Remote (included with your DSS® system)

Controls the DSS® system as well as most remote controllable TVs, VCRs, and other devices. Point the remote at the device you want to control.

Access Card (installed in DSS® receiver) Must be inserted for you to use the DSS® system! Provides system security and authorization of DSS® services. Do not remove the card except when issued a new card as a replacement for the original.
