Controlling Other Components
Chapter 2
4 Place both your DISH remote control and
the original equipment’s remote control on
a table or other flat, stable surface.
Holding either remote control in your hand may
cause learning to fail.
5 To start learning device commands:
• If you've found a code for a device,
then under Learning Style select
“Add learned commands to
existing code”.
• If you have not found a code for a
device, then under Learning Style
select “Blank Slate-This will erase
all previous commands”.
To find and program the device code, use the
instructions, “Setting Up Using the Remote
Manager” on page 17
The device mode button that you selected
remains lit while learning.
6 Point the front of the original device remote
to face the small square (IR window) on the
front, left-hand side of the DISH remote
control, as shown on page 19.
7 Select the Start Learning option.
Follow the on-screen learning instructions.
8 After a button has learned a command suc-
cessfully, repeat step 6 and step 7 until all
commands you want have been learned.
9 To end the learning sequence:
• Press one of the mode buttons on
the DISH remote. This saves all
the commands for that mode, and
exits learning to return to normal
remote-control operation.
• To cancel learning, do not press
any buttons on either remote
control for at least 30 seconds. The
DISH remote control times out of
learning and returns to its normal
operation.
Note that no learned commands
are saved if the DISH remote
control times out before completion
of learning.
The learning sequence also ends if the remote:
• Runs out of memory for learned
commands, whereupon it saves
the commands you have learned
for equipment in this mode, exits
learning and returns to normal
remote-control operation. Then the
DISH remote cannot learn any
additional commands.
• Batteries are too low for learning,
when all the mode buttons blink
quickly eight times. Learning ends
with no learned commands
saved, and the DISH remote
control returns to its normal
operation.
Change the remote’s batteries.
