Connections & Setup
Place Batteries in the Remote
Control
Follow these steps whenever you need to install or change the batteries in your
digital satellite receiver’s remote control.
Note: When replacing old batteries, you may need to reprogram the remote
control to operate other devices.
1. Remove the cover from the battery compartment.
2. Insert batteries in the battery compartment, matching the + and – end of
each battery.
3. Replace the cover.
Plug in and Turn On the Receiver
Plug the end of the power cord into the wall outlet. Be sure to insert the plug
completely.
To turn on the satellite receiver, press the SAT button on the remote control or
the ON•OFF button on the front panel. If your TV brand is RCA, GE, or
Proscan, press the TV button on the remote control to turn on the TV. If your
TV brand is not RCA, GE, or Proscan, see page 25 in the next section, Using the
Remote Control, for details on programming the satellite receiver’s remote
control to operate your TV.
Locating the VCR’s Infrared
Remote Control Sensor
The VCR Controller must be affixed directly over the infrared remote control
sensor on your VCR.
Some VCRs have a label that identifies the remote control sensor, but others do
not. If the IR sensor is labeled on your VCR, affix the VCR Controller directly
over the sensor. For VCRs that do not label the sensor, you can use the VCR’s
remote control to locate the VCR’s sensor before affixing the VCR Controller
cable.
To Find the VCR’s Remote Control Sensor:
1. Hold the VCR’s remote control so that it is touching the front of the VCR.
2. Slowly move the remote control over the front of the VCR while repeatedly
pressing the remote control’s power button.
3. When your VCR turns on/off, you have located the remote control sensor.
Note: To test the VCR controller’s position, use a piece of vinyl tape to
temporarily attach the VCR controller to the spot where you think the sensor
is located. Then see Selecting a VCR Type on page 19 to see if the VCR
Controller is positioned correctly.
