Code Scanning
To use the Code Scanning method:
1. Repeatedly tap the top part of the 
CHANNEL (CH) button.
2. Continue to step through the codes until the component turns off, indicating 
you have found the correct component code. If you accidentally pass a code 
that responds or realize you may not have been aiming the remote control at 
the component, tap the lower part of the 
CHANNEL (CH) button to step 
backward through the codes.
3. Press the remote control 
POWER button to verify the proper code by 
turning the device on and off.
4. Press the device button (in this example, 
TV) again to lock in the code.
Changing the Remote ID
If you are using multiple satellite receivers in the same room, you may want to 
change the remote control ID to avoid interference or “cross talk.” The remote 
control ID can be a number from “001” to “008”.
If you change remote IDs, set your remote control to that ID number first.
Use this procedure to set the remote control to use a different remote ID:
1. From the 
MAIN MENU, highlight the System Setup menu tab. Press 
SELECT.
2. Highlight 
Remote menu tab to access Remote Control Settings.
3. Highlight the Remote ID menu button.
4. Press and hold the remote control SAT button.
5. Press and release the 
MUTE button.
6. Release the 
SAT button. It should remain lit. If it does not, repeat steps 4-6.
7. Enter desired number (001 to 008).
8. Press the 
SAT button to lock in the code.
9. Point the remote control at the receiver. Press 
SELECT.
The number to the right of the highlighted Remote ID menu button will change 
to the new code. Check that the ID has been successfully set by testing the 
remote control to see that it controls that satellite receiver.
