PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE CONTROL

The DSS® remote can be programmed to control most brands of remote controllable TVs, VCRs, and cable boxes. The remote is programmed to control most RCA, GE and ProScan TVs and VCRs. The remote needs to be programmed to control other manufacturers’ brands.

Using the Remote to Control a Second DSS® Receiver

The remote can control two DSS® receivers. From the Main menu, select Options, then System Options, then Remote Setup. Choose which button, DSS1 or DSS2, will control the DSS® receiver.

Changing the RF Remote Code

The remote can control the DSS® receiver using both IR (Infrared) signals and RF (radio frequency) signals. IR signals require line of sight to the receiver’s front panel remote sensor. RF signals can control the receiver from other parts of your house–even through walls.

Occasionally, due to interference or other RF devices, you may need to change the remote and receiver RF code. Change the code in the System Options menu.
