REMOTE CONTROL OVERVIEW
Use this full-function remote to control a variety of DISH Network
receivers, such as Standard Definition, High Definition, and Digital
Video Recorder receivers. 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. By now
you’ve noticed that the cover contains information on quick set up and
remote 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 to control 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 two seconds to show you’ve set the
remote to that mode.
Great Idea: Whenever you finish using
other equipment (TV, VCR, DVD, etc.) be
sure to put the remote back in SAT mode.
6.3 Replacement.book Page 1 Tuesday, November 7, 2006 11:56 AM

If you program the remote to control other equipment, refer to the
following for remote control operation instructions:
•TVs, page C-8.
•VCRs and DVD players, page C-9.
•DISH Network satellite receivers, page C-7.
•Stereo equipment, use only these buttons: SELECT (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 9).
•If you’re set up to use UHF, make sure that the UHF remote
antenna is attached to the receiver’s back panel UHF 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 to control a TV. This
section uses a different method to program the remote to control a TV
or other equipment (such as a VCR, DVD player, tuner, amplifier, or a
second TV). You can program the remote by either following the
instructions in Programming Using Equipment Code Tables on page 3,
or the Scanning for Equipment Codes procedure described on page 4.
COMBINATION EQUIPMENT (FOR EXAMPLE, TV/VCR)
When programming the remote to control combination equipment,
such as a TV/VCR or a TV/DVD, program the remote control in one
mode, and then repeat the procedure in the other mode. For example, to
program the remote to control a TV/VCR using code 748, follow the
instructions to program the remote to control the TV using code 748,
and then repeat the instructions for the VCR using the same code. Put

the remote in TV mode to use the TV, and VCR mode to use the VCR.
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 to control your TV in Limited Mode, you will only be able
to use the POWER, MUTE, and VOLUME buttons to control your
TV. Also, when you use the remote to control 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 on page C-6.
Note: Limited Mode cannot be used with audio amplifiers.
PROGRAMMING USING EQUIPMENT CODE TABLES
You can set up the remote to control other equipment using the
equipment codes listed on page 13 and the modes as shown on page 2.
Instructions Additional Information
1Turn the equipment on. Use the equipment’s front panel
buttons or its remote control.
2Find the brand name of the
equipment in the tables
starting on page 13.
If the brand isn’t listed, see
Scanning for Equipment Codes
on page 4.
3Press and hold the mode
button until all the other
mode buttons light up, and
then let go of the button.
The mode button flashes.
For example, hold the TV mode
button for a TV until all of the
other mode buttons light. When
you let go, TV will flash.
4For AUX mode only. Press
0 for a second TV, or 1 for
a second VCR, or 2 for a
tuner, or amplifier.
This step is for programming
the kind of equipment that
should be programmed in AUX
mode. If you’re not
programming in AUX mode,
skip to step 5.

SCANNING FOR EQUIPMENT CODES
5Enter one of the three-digit
equipment codes from the
table using the number
buttons.
The three-digit equipment code
should be for the brand name of
your equipment that you found
in step 2.
6If you want to program
Limited Mode, press 1.
If not, skip to step 7.
See Limited Mode on page 3 for
more information.
7Press POUND (#). If you entered the code
correctly, the mode button
flashes three times.
8Press POWER to turn off
the equipment. If the equip-
ment does not turn off, go
to step 10.
If the code works, the
equipment should turn off.
9Turn the equipment back
on and try some other but-
tons to make sure they
work. If the code works for
other buttons, stop here.
For example, sometimes
POWER works when other
buttons don’t.
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.
11 If you can’t find a code that
works, try Scanning for
Equipment Codes that
follows.
Instructions Additional Information

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 equipment’s volume instead of the TV volume while your remote
control is in SAT mode. Follow the instructions in the left column. To
change back to controlling the TV volume in SAT mode, follow the
instructions in the right column.

PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE TO CONTROL ASECOND
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 will send out IR and UHF (not UHF Pro) signals to the
receiver. You can program the remote to control any other DISH
Network satellite receiver, except for following:
•TV2 on DISH 322, DISH Player-DVR models 522, 625, 942 and
ViP222 & ViP622 DVR
•DishPlayer 7100/7200
1Turn on the other receiver and display the System Info screen
(see the receiver user’s guide for information on how to display
the screen).
Write down the address shown:
2Press and hold the AUX button until all the other mode buttons
light up, and then let go of the button. The AUX button flashes.

READING OUT THE REMOTE CONTROL 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 below.
Instructions Additional Information
1Press and hold the mode
button for the equipment
you want the remote to con-
trol. When all the other
mode buttons light up, let
go of the mode button - that
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 (#) but-
ton 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. A quick flash
(zero) before the three-digit
code is for a TV; one
regular flash is for a VCR
or DVD player; and two
flashes is for a tuner or
amplifier.
For example, if the TV code is
570, the AUX mode button
flashes once quickly, pauses,
flashes five times, pauses,
flashes seven times, pauses, and
flashes once quickly.
