REMOTE CONTROL OVERVIEW
Use this full-function remote control to operate the ViP®722k DVR
and ViP222k DISH Network receivers. Also, you can program the
remote control to operate most of the popular brands of audio/video
equipment like a TV, a DVD player (or VCR), 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. By now
you’ve noticed that the cover contains information on quick set up and
remote control operation.
The rest of the guide contains in-depth information to help you get the
most from your remote control, including controlling other equipment
like TVs, VCRs, and DVD players.
REMOTE CONTROL MODES
Use the remote control’s mode buttons to set the remote to the correct
mode for the equipment. Be sure to program the remote control to
operate the other equipment as described on page 2.
To change the mode, press the button for the equipment you want to
control. The mode button lights for three seconds to show you’ve set
the remote to that mode.
Great Idea: Whenever you finish using
other equipment (TV, DVD, VCR, etc.) be
sure to put the remote back in SAT mode.

2
If you program the remote control to operate other equipment, refer to
the following for remote-control operation instructions:
•TVs, page C-8.
•DVD players and VCRs, page C-9.
•Other DISH Network satellite receivers, page C-7.
•Stereo equipment (for example, an audio amplifier programmed
in AUX mode) uses only these buttons: SELECT (to change
inputs), MUTE, VOLUME, and POWER.
HOW THE REMOTE COMMUNICATES
Depending on how the remote is set up, the remote control may use
UHF radio signals, IR signals, or both to control the receiver. However,
only IR signals are used to control other equipment.
•IR signals travel short distances (up to 40 feet), and cannot go
through walls or other solid objects. Point the remote control
directly at the equipment you want to control, with no objects to
block the signal path.
•UHF signals travel long distances and can go through walls and
other solid objects. Because these signals travel so far, the
receiver may respond to signals from other nearby remote
controls. To handle this problem, you may want to change the
remote and receiver addresses (see page 13).
•If you’re set up to use UHF, make sure that the UHF remote
antenna is attached to the receiver’s back panel REMOTE
ANTENNA input so it can receive the UHF remote signals.
PROGRAMMING FOR OTHER EQUIPMENT
Page C-4 shows you how to program the remote control to operate a
TV. The following section uses a different method to program the
remote control to operate a TV or other equipment (such as a DVD
player or VCR, tuner, amplifier, audio receiver or a second TV). You
can program the remote control by either following the instructions in
Programming Using Equipment Code Tables on page 3, or the
Scanning for Equipment Codes procedure described on page 5.
COMBINATION EQUIPMENT (FOR EXAMPLE, TV/DVD)
When programming the remote control to operate combination
equipment, such as a TV/DVD or a TV/VCR, program the remote
control in one mode, and then repeat the procedure in the other mode.
For example, to program the remote control to operate a TV/DVD

3
player using code 765, follow the instructions to program the remote to
operate the TV using code 765, and then repeat the instructions for the
DVD using the same code. Put the remote in TV mode to use TV
functions, or DVD mode to use the DVD player (or VCR) functions.
LIMITED MODE
You can program your remote control in Limited Mode to keep from
accidentally changing the channel on your TV or VCR. When you use
the remote control to operate your TV in Limited Mode, you will only
be able to use the POWER, MUTE, and VOLUME buttons to operate
your TV. Also, when you use the remote control to operate your VCR
in Limited Mode, you will only be able to use the POWER and VCR
function buttons. The section Programming Using the Equipment Code
Tables has a step that tells the remote control to go into Limited Mode.
Also, a quick way to put the remote in Limited Mode is described on
page C-6.
Note: Limited Mode cannot be used with audio amplifiers.
PROGRAMMING USING EQUIPMENT CODE TABLES
You can set up the remote control to operate other equipment using the
code-table listings that start on page 17 and the modes as shown on
page 1. To control a receiver in AUX mode, see page 7.
Instructions Additional Information
1Turn the equipment on. Use the equipment’s front panel
buttons or its own remote
control.

equipment listed in the
code tables that start on
page 17.
If the brand isn’t listed in the
tables, see Scanning for
Equipment Codes on page 5.
3Press and hold the mode
button for the equipment
until all the other mode
buttons light up, and then
release the button. The
mode button flashes.
For example, hold the TV mode
button for a TV until all of the

buttons to make sure they
work. If the code works for
other buttons, stop here.
For example, sometimes
POWER works when other
buttons don’t. Note that more
than one code may work to turn
equipment on or off.
10 If the code doesn’t work,
repeat steps 3 through 9
with another equipment
code listed in the tables.
Try every code listed for your
brand until one works for your
equipment.
11 If you can’t find a code that
works, try the instructions
that follow for Scanning
for Equipment Codes.

RECEIVER IN AUX MODE
If you have another DISH Network receiver installed, you can use this
remote control in AUX mode to operate it along with your new
receiver. When you program the remote control to operate the other
receiver, the remote will send IR signals to that receiver, so the line of
sight to the second receiver must be unobstructed. You can program the
remote control to operate any other DISH Network receiver, except for:
•TV2 on DISH 322, DISH Player-DVR models 522, 625, and 942,
ViP222, ViP222k, ViP622 DVR, ViP722 DVR or ViP722k DVR

READING OUT CODES
These instructions explain how to check the remote control code you
put in the remote control when you set it up. Be sure to write them in
the spaces provided on the inside back cover.
Instructions Additional Information
1Press and hold the mode
button for the equipment
you want the remote control
to operate. When all the
mode buttons light up,
release the button—the
selected mode button
should now be flashing.
For example, hold the TV mode
button for a TV until all of the
other mode buttons light. When
you let go, the TV mode light
will flash.
2Press the POUND (#)
button twice. The mode
button flashes the number
for each digit of the
equipment code, with a
pause between the groups
of flashes. A quick flash is
for zero.
For example, if the code is 570,
the mode button flashes five
times, pauses, flashes seven
times, pauses, and flashes once
quickly.
For AUX mode, the first
group of flashes tells you
what the AUX mode
controls, then the following
flashes tell you each digit
of the equipment code. A
quick flash (zero) before
the three-digit code is for a
TV; one regular flash is for
a DVD player or VCR; and
two flashes is for a tuner,
amplifier, or audio receiver.
For another satellite
receiver programmed in
AUX mode, the group of
flashes tells you the second
receiver’s address number.
For example, if the TV code is
570, the AUX mode button
flashes once quickly (indicating
the AUX equipment is a TV),
pauses, flashes five times for
the first digit of the code, then
pauses, flashes seven times for
the second digit of the code,
pauses again, and flashes once
quickly for the final digit (zero)
in the code.
For example, if the AUX mode
button is set to control a
satellite receiver with address 5,
the AUX mode button flashes
five times.
