Setting Up the RF Antenna (SAT-A4 Only)

The RF (radio frequency) antenna enables the remote control to operate the Digital Satellite Receiver even if the Digital Satellite Receiver is located in another room or is placed behind a cabinet door.

Note

You must set up the RF antenna if you plan on using the RF feature.

Do not place the RF antenna directly on top of the Digital Satellite Receiver or any other metal object. For best results, place the RF antenna in a visible location.

To set up the RF antenna:

1 Connect the RF antenna to the Digital Satellite Receiver’s RF REMOTE jack.

2 Place the RF antenna at least one foot away from the Digital Satellite Receiver.

3 Use the on-screen displays to set up the Digital Satellite Receiver to accept RF transmission (RF ONLY). See “Setting Up the Remote Control” on page 71 for details.

The Digital Satellite Receiver is shipped with IR transmission enabled and RF transmission disabled. To use the RF feature, you must first change the factory setting (IR ONLY) to the RF setting (RF ONLY) using the on-screen displays, as described on page 71.
