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 IR Remote Control 1 on a nearby TV, if necessary. However, if you are using a UHF Pro remote to control TV1, use the instructions on page 46 to change the address.

To handle this situation, you can change address on Remote Control 2 and the receiver as follows:

1.Make sure you turn on the TV.

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 Remote Control 2 for about three seconds, until all of the mode buttons light up, and then let go of the SAT button.

4.Use the NUMBER PAD buttons to enter any number between 1 and 16, but not the one you wrote 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.
