Auto Tuning
This menu lets you specify the various components you have connected to your TV. It lets you program a component button on the remote control (VCR, AUX•HD, DVD, SAT•CABLE, or AUDIO) so that pressing the button automatically turns on the TV and turns the TV to the correct Video Input Channel (go to Chapter 3 for detailed information).
Notes: The AUX•HD button by default is set up for an RCA HDTV Tuner receiver.
If you have two RCA satellite receivers, you can control each separately. Program the second receiver with the AUX•HD button using the 5001 code. Then use the RCA SAT2 option in the auto tuning menu to set auto tuning.
