G-LINK CABLE - Adjusting your DTH 8000’s IR (infrared) controller cell

You need to find the correct positioning of the IR controller cell in relation to the front of the satellite or cable receiver so that your DTH 8000 can transmit the commands as you would do with the satellite receiver’s remote control.The IR (infrared) controller cell must face the receiver cell of the satellite receiver.You can locate the receiver cell of the satellite receiver by bringing its remote control as close as possible to the front of the device and trying to change channels. Move the remote control one centimetre and try again.When the channel of the satellite receiver changes, locate the position on the front of the unit.Then install the IR controller cell as shown on the diagram below, facing the cell of the satellite receiver (1 or 2 cm away). If need be, use the adhesive supplied to stick the cell in place.
