If you program the remote to control equipment in AUX mode, refer to the following for remote control operation instructions:
•TVs, page
•VCRs and DVD players, page
•DISH Network satellite receivers, page
•Stereo equipment use only these buttons: SELECT (change inputs), MUTE, VOLUME, and POWER.
HOW THE REMOTE COMMUNICATES
Depending on how the remote is set up, the remote control may use UHF radio signals, IR light signals, or both to control the receiver. However, only IR signals are used to control other equipment.
•IR signals travel only short distances (up to 40 feet), and cannot go through walls or other solid objects. You must point the remote control right at the equipment you want to control, with no objects to block the signal path.
•UHF signals travel long distances and can go through walls and other solid objects. Because these signals travel so far, the receiver may respond to signals from other nearby remote controls. To handle this problem, you may want to change the remote and receiver addresses (see page 8).
•If you’re set up to use UHF, make sure that the UHF remote antenna is attached to the receiver’s back panel UHF Remote Antenna input so it can receive the UHF remote signals.
PROGRAMMING FOR OTHER EQUIPMENT
Page
COMBINATION EQUIPMENT (FOR EXAMPLE, TV/VCR)
When programming the remote to control combination equipment, such as a TV/VCR or a TV/DVD, program the remote control in one mode, and then repeat the procedure in the other mode. For example, to program the remote to control a TV/VCR using code 748, follow the instructions to program the remote to control the TV using code 748, and then repeat the instructions for the VCR using the same code. Put the remote in TV mode to use the TV, and VCR mode to use the VCR.
