ABOUT THE REMOTE CONTROL

• This remote control gives you easy access to the features of DISH

Network

satellite TV receivers.

• You can set up the remote to control as many as three devices

along with the receiver. These may be TVs, VCRs, DVD players,

cable TV boxes, tuners, or audio amplifiers.

• This remote can be used with both IR only and IR/UHF receivers

(a UHF receiver has an antenna attached to its back panel).

• This remote cannot be used with the DISH Network Model 7100/

7200 (DishPlayer) receiver.

• On most non-DishPVR receivers, the SKIP BACKbutton is now

the SYSTEM INFORMATION button.

• With a DishPVR receiver, the DVR List, PTV List or PVR list

button functions as the PVR button. Pressing it when the remote

is in SAT mode will open the PVR Recorded Events menu.

• With the JVC Model HM-DSR100-D-VHS, when the remote is

in SAT mode, the VCR buttons function as labelled. For

example, PLAY will start playing a videotape, STOP will stop the

tape, etc.

• When this remote is used with a DishPVR receiver,pressingthe

POUND (#) Button opens the Alpha Search menu.

IF YOUR RECEIVER DOES NOT RESPOND TO THIS

REMOTE

It may be that the receiver’s address was changed and is no longer set

to #1. This is important because if the receiver and remote are not set to

thesameaddress,theremotecannotcontrolthereceiver.

To check the receiver’s address, turn off the receiver (leave the TV on),

and press the System Information or Info button on the front panel to

open the Important System Information screen. If the receiver

does not have such a button, pull the Smart Card to open the

Important System Informationscreen. If the remote address is not

1, you will need to change address (see page 23 for instructions).

Remote Control Modes

113737 Page 3

REMOTE CONTROL SIGNALS

The remote control uses both Infra-Red (IR) light and UHF signals to

control the satellite receiver and other devices.

• IR light travels only short distances (40 feet or less), and cannot

go through walls or other solid objects. You mustpoint the remote

control directly at the device, with no objects blocking the signal

path.

• UHF signals can go through

walls but IR signals can’t. To

use UHF signals to control the

receiver, the receiver must

have a UHF antenna attached

to it

’s

back panel.

HOW TO INSTALL THE
