OPERATING OTHER DEVICES
To use the remote to control other devices (such as a TV, VCR, DVD/Blu-ray Disc
TM
player
tuner, amplifier, or another compatible DISH receiver), you must first program it to control
these other devices. You can do this by any of the following procedures:
• Programming Using Device Code Tables on page 82.
• Programming Using Device Code Scan on page 83.
• Learning from Another Device’s Remote on page 85.
• Using the System Wizard on page 87.
Remote Control Modes
Use the remote control’s mode buttons, SAT (satellite receiver), TV (for a TV), DVD (for a
VCR or a DVD/Blu-ray Disc player), and AUX (“auxiliary,” for a second TV, DVD/VCR,
tuner, amplifier, or a second DISH receiver) to set the remote control to the right mode for
each device. To change the mode, firmly press the button for the device you want the
remote to control. The mode button lights for about two seconds to show you’ve set the
remote to that mode.
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. Also, when
you use the remote to control your VCR (using the button for a DVD or AUX device) in
Limited Mode, you will only be able to use the POWER and VCR function buttons.
