Learning From Another
Device’s Remote
Use this procedure if you are unable to nd a code
that allows your DISH Network remote to control your
device. This procedure is also applicable if, after you
have programmed your DISH Network remote to
control your device (in TV, DVD, or AUX modes), some
of the commands are not functioning as you expect.
The learning function of your DISH Network remote
control can support these commands.
The remote control can learn commands in one of two
ways:
You can follow the instructions for using device
codes to program a specic mode, and then
learn commands that add new or overwrite
existing functions of the remote control’s buttons
in this mode. For this type of learning, any button
without a learned command keeps the previous
command (if any) for that device code.
Each button on this remote learns a command
from the device’s original remote control. For this
type of learning, any button without a learned
command keeps the previous command (if any)
for that device code.
Learning can occur only in TV, DVD, or AUX modes.
The Mode buttons (SAT, TV, DVD, and AUX) cannot
learn a command. For each Mode button, the POWER
button can be learned to turn the devices
associated with that Mode on and off.
Note: The TV Power button turns the TV on and off
in all Modes. It cannot be learned.
Note: The remote times out if a button isn’t pressed
within 20 seconds. If the remote times out, then the
learning process needs to start over again.
To teach the DISH Network remote control specic
commands for another device, complete the following
steps.
