DISCRETE CODES FOR LEARNING REMOTES

DISCRETE CODES FOR LEARNING REMOTES

Remote control discrete On and Off IR commands are used by installers 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 ensure the satellite receiver is reliably in one state or the other. To use discrete power commands, complete the following:

1Program the DISH Network remote to desired remote address (see Changing the Remote and Receiver Address below).

2Hold the SAT mode button until all mode buttons light, then release.

3Press POWER (not TV POWER).

4Press VOLUME UP for discrete power on or VOLUME DOWN for discrete power off.

5Press any other button when done to end this procedure.

CHANGING THE REMOTE AND RECEIVER ADDRESS

One quick way to avoid remote conflicts is by changing the address on your remote and receiver. If you notice that your receiver is changing channels or opening menus but you’re not using the remote control, a quick change of address should fix the problem.

1Press SYSTEM INFO on the receiver's front panel. The System Info screen displays and shows the Remote Address.

Write down the address shown:

Note: If you aren’t sure how to access the System Info screen or if there isn’t a SYSTEM INFO button on the front panel of your receiver, check your receiver’s User Guide.

2Press and hold SAT on your remote control for about three seconds, until all of the mode buttons light up, and then let go of

SAT.

3Use the NUMBER PAD to enter any number between 1 and 16, but not the one you wrote in step 1.

4Press the POUND (#) on your remote (the SAT button flashes three times). Write down the number you entered in the space provided on the inside back cover.
