SENDING DISCRETE POWER ON AND OFF

Discrete power ON and power OFF IR commands are used when programming macro commands into universal remotes. Using an ON-only or OFF-only command is more effective than a toggle ON/OFF command when trying to make sure the satellite receiver is reliably in one state or the other. To send a discrete power ON or OFF command, use the following steps:

QUESTIONS

•My remote doesn’t control my receiver or other components. What should I do?

–Put the remote control is in the correct mode (page 66).

–Check the batteries (page 13).

–Check the remote control address (pages 62 and 69).

–Check or adjust the UHF antenna (page 13 and 62).

•Why does my receiver change channels or display menus at random? Your neighbor may have their remote control set on the same address. Change the address on your remote control and receiver as described on page 62. If that doesn’t help, you may have to install a UHF attenuator as described on page 65.
