Optimize Your Remote Controls
Change the Address
When you receive your system, both remote controls and the receiver have been set to communicate on address 1. However, because UHF signals travel long distances and go through walls, a neighbor’s UHF Pro remote could control your receiver by mistake if they are on the same address.
Note: You can also use this procedure to change the Primary Remote Address for the IR remote control on a nearby TV, if necessary. However, if you are using a UHF Pro remote to control TV1, use the instructions on page 34 to change its address.
To handle this situation, you can change the remote address on a UHF Pro remote control and the receiver as follows:
1.Make sure you turn on the TV to view the screen.
2.Press the front panel SYSTEM INFO button to display the System Info screen.
The System Info screen shows the Secondary Remote Address. Write down this address:
3.Press and hold the SAT button on the UHF Pro remote control for about three seconds, until all of the mode buttons light up, and then release the SAT button.
4.Use the NUMBER PAD buttons to enter any number between 1 and 16, but not the one you just wrote down in step 2.
Write down the number you entered:
5.Press the POUND (#) button. If you entered the address correctly, the SAT mode button will flash three times.
6.Press the RECORD button.
7.Make sure the Secondary Remote Address you see now on the System Info screen is the same as the one you entered in step 4. If it isn’t, the remote is not controlling the receiver.
8.Press the SELECT button to close the Important System Information screen.
Confirming the Remote Control Address
1.Press and hold the SAT mode button for three seconds, until all of the mode buttons light up, and then release the SAT button.
2.Press the POUND (#) button twice. The SAT mode button will flash the same number of times as the address number (three flashes means address 3).
