Changing the Remote Control from UHF Pro to IR

Your receiver accepts both UHF and IR (Infrared) commands. The remote control only outputs UHF Pro signals but can be changed to transmit IR commands by switching the key at the bottom. This is also useful for programming an after-market universal learning remote control to operate your receiver. Note that when the remote control is in IR mode, you will need to use it from the same room to operate the receiver because IR signals do not travel through walls or over great distances.
