Controlling Other Components
Installing a UHF Attenuator
Unwanted UHF signals may interfere with signals from the remote control to the receiver. To prevent such interference, you can install a 10 dB attenuator (available from many consumer electronics parts stores). Adding this attenuator will help keep out stray UHF signals, but it also cut down how far away you can use the remote control.
1Remove the UHF antenna from the UHF Remote Antenna input on the receiver back panel.
2Attach a 10 dB attenuator to the UHF Remote Antenna input.
3Attach the UHF antenna to the attenuator.
CONTROLLING OTHER COMPONENTS
To use the remote to control other devices (such as a TV, VCR, DVD player, tuner, amplifier, or DISH Network satellite receiver), you must first program it to control these other devices. You can do this by either following the instructions in Setting Up Using Device Code Tables on page 77, or the Setting Up Using Device Codes Scan procedure described on page 78.
