REMOTE CONTROL OVERVIEW Use this full-function remote to control your DISH Network receiver. Also, you can program the remote to control most of the popular brands of audio/video equipment like a TV, VCR, DVD player, or a second DISH Network satellite receiver. See Programming for Other Equipment on page 2. Note: This remote control may have features not used by your receiver. USING THE GUIDE This guide makes it easy to set up and use your remote control.
If you program the remote to control other equipment, refer to the following pages located at the beginning of this guide for remote control operation instructions: • TVs, Remote Operation TV Mode, page S-5. • VCRs and DVD players, Remote Operation VCR Mode, page S-6. • DISH Network satellite receivers, Remote Operation SAT Mode, page S-4. • Stereo equipment use only these buttons: SELECT (change inputs), MUTE, VOLUME, and POWER.
LIMITED MODE You can program your remote control in Limited Mode to keep from accidentally changing the channel on your TV or VCR. When Limited Mode is enabled, you cannot select TV mode. If you press the TV button while TV mode is programmed in Limited Mode, the TV button flashes and the SAT button lights, telling you cannot switch to TV mode. The remote then moves back to SAT mode.
PROGRAMMING USING EQUIPMENT CODE TABLES You can set up the remote to control other equipment using the equipment codes listed on page 12 and the modes as shown on page 1. 4 Instructions Additional Information 1 Turn the equipment on. Use the equipment’s front panel buttons or its remote control. 2 Find the brand name of the equipment in the tables starting on page 12. If the brand isn’t listed, see Scanning for Equipment Codes on page 5.
Instructions 9 Turn the equipment back on and try some other buttons to make sure they work. If the code works for other buttons, stop here. Additional Information For example, sometimes POWER works when other buttons don’t. Note: If you have programmed your remote in Limited Mode, only the MUTE and VOLUME buttons work. 10 If the code doesn’t work, repeat steps 3 through 9 with another equipment code from the tables. Try every code listed for your brand until one works for your equipment.
Instructions 6 Additional Information 4 Press POWER. This puts your remote in the scan mode. 5 Press the UP or DOWN ARROW repeatedly until the equipment turns off. As you press the UP or DOWN ARROW, the remote tries each code in the memory to see if it can turn off your equipment. When the equipment turns off, you have found a code that might work. Note: The mode button for the equipment flashes rapidly eight times when you’ve scanned all the codes for that equipment. 6 Press POUND (#).
SWITCHING BETWEEN TV AND AMPLIFIER VOLUME CONTROL When you set up the remote to control a TV, the MUTE and VOLUME buttons control the TV volume, even if your remote control is in SAT mode. However, if you want to use the AUX mode to control a tuner or amplifier that has a volume setting, you can set up the remote to control the tuner or amplifier’s volume instead of the TV volume while your remote control is in SAT mode. Follow the instructions in the left column to switch to controlling volume in AUX mode.
PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE TO CONTROL A SECOND RECEIVER IN AUX MODE If you have another DISH Network satellite receiver installed, you can use this remote in AUX mode to control it along with your new receiver. When you program the remote to control the other receiver, the remote sends out IR signals to the receiver.
READING OUT THE REMOTE CONTROL CODES These instructions explain how to check the codes you put in the remote control when you set it up. Be sure to write them in the spaces provided on the inside of the back cover. Instructions Additional Information 1 Press and hold the mode button for the equipment you want the remote to control. When all the other mode buttons light up, let go of the mode button— that mode button should now be flashing.
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: 1 Program the DISH Network remote to desired remote address (see Changing the Remote and Receiver Address below).
5 Press RECORD. Make sure the Remote Address you see on the System Info screen is the same as the one you entered in step 3. If it isn’t, the remote cannot control the receiver. Press RECORD a second time. 6 Press SELECT to close the System Info screen.
EQUIPMENT CODES These tables contain the manufacturer codes for programming the remote to control your TV, a VCR, DVD player, or audio amplifier. Every attempt has been made to include all codes. If your equipment brand is not listed or if the codes do not work, the remote may not control your equipment. In some cases codes may operate some but not all buttons shown in this guide.
