Improving Receiver Control
Adjusting the Remote Antenna
Be sure to set the remote control antenna (back of the receiver) straight up so you can use
the remote control from as far away as possible. Don't let the antenna touch anything.
If your UHF Pro Remote Control isn't working very well from far away, you
may be experiencing interference from objects near your receiver. To
improve your remote control's range, try the following:
–Place the receiver higher than all of the other equipment in your
entertainment center.
–Provide room above the receiver so that the antenna can be installed
straight up. If this is not possible, tilt the UHF antenna at about a 30°
angle.
–Place the UHF antenna outside the entertainment center by using a
coaxial cable to connect the antenna to the receiver.
–Try moving the receiver to other locations.
–Move any nearby over-the-air antennas away from the UHF remote
antenna. Do not place an over-the-air antenna on top of your receiver.
–Install a UHF attenuator. See Installing a UHF Attenuator in the following
section for details.
Changing the UHF Frequency Using the A/B Switch
Your remote has a switch to change the UHF frequency that your remote control uses. It
comes preset to the A position but you can change the setting to the B position to lessen
the likelihood of any other UHF remote interfering with yours.
1Remove the battery cover from the remote control.
2Use a small screw driver or a paper clip to carefully change the setting.
3Put the battery cover back on the remote control.
4Use the SYS INFO button on the front panel to open the System Information
screen.
5Press RECORD on the remote control.
6Make sure the System Information screen shows the correct band informa-
tion:
•Switch position A - IR/UHF Pro Band A
