Who wouldn’t want a stack of these...
Itmaybejustawishformany
residential customers, but
for commercial customers,
it’s pretty common. Stack
several receivers in an
equipment rack, and you
have a decent bar setup. the
only problem is controlling
them. Many bar owners
use aluminum foil over the
receivers to make sure that
the remote signal doesn’t get through, but there is a better way. To control more
than one receiver with a remote, you’ll need a white DIRECTV remote like the one
you see above. If you need a spare, check this out -- DIRECTV RC-65 Universal IR
(ONLY) Remote Compatible with Genie HR24 and All Preceding Receivers (RC65) from
Solid Signal)
Note that the RC71 remote used with the HR44 Genie will not work with this tip,
and some Genie DVRs and Genie clients will not give you this option. If you’re using
any DIRECTV receiver from H21 through H25 or HR20 through HR24 though you
should be ne.
It’s also important to check the remote model number. It should be RC32 or higher.
We’re going to use the sliding switch at the top to control four receivers, and it’s easy!
Your remote model should say
RC32 or higher. This is an RC65.

Step 1: Use the menus
Start by pressing the {MENU} button and
using the down arrow to go to “Settings & Help.” Press {SELECT}.
Conrm that “Settings” is highlighted and press {SELECT}.
Use the down arrow to go to “Remote Control” and press {SELECT}.
You should see a menu like this one. If you do not see the “Advanced Setups” menu, conrm
your receiver model (should be H21-H25 or HR20-HR24) and make sure the remote
is set to IR mode. (Need help resetting your remote to IR mode? Here’s a quick guide.)
Arrow down
to “Advanced
Setups” and press
{SELECT}.

Step 1, continued
You will get a “nag” screen
like this one to make sure
you know what you’re
doing. If you don’t do this
process correctly, you may
lose the use of the remote
control and at that point
you’ll need the front panel
buttons to help you. Press
the {-} (Dash) button on
the remote to continue.
Here you have the option to change the receiver number. You can choose from 1 to
8. With the receiver number highlighted, press the {SELECT} button and use the
arrows to select the one you want and press {SELECT} again.
You should leave one receiver set up as Receiver 1, and if you have a second, use
Receiver 2. For a third, use Receiver 3, and so forth.
When you are done use the right arrow button to highlight “Continue” and press
{SELECT}.

Step 2: Program the remote
Now that you have set the receiver mode, you have to set the remote to put out
codes that the receiver can use. You can leave Receiver 1 set up on the {D} position
of that top switch, but the AV1, AV2 and TV positions can be programmed to control
different receivers. Note that by doing this you may need to use a different remote to
actually control the TV, because the TV position will be controlling your DIRECTV
box. You’ll see a screen like this one above.
• Start by sliding the switch to the position you want to change. If you want to
control Receiver 2, slide the switch to AV1. For Receiver 3, slide the switch to AV2
and for receiver 4 slide the switch to TV.
• Press and hold {MUTE} and {SELECT} for at least two seconds. The light above
the switch should blink twice.
• Enter the code shown on the screen. For Receiver 2 this will be 00002. For Receiver
3 it will be 00003, and for Receiver 4 it will be 00004.
• After you enter the last button the remote should blink twice again.
• You should now be able to press {SELECT} and that screen should go away.
If it didn’t work, try it again and if you need to get everything the way it was, use the
front panel buttons to go back to the previous step and set the receiver mode back to
Receiver 1.

Even more advanced...
You can actually control a total of 8 different receivers in the same rack by using two
remotes. Set the fourth through eighth receivers to be Receiver 4 through Receiver
8 on the menu, then use codes 00005, 00006, 00007, and 00008 to set the second
remote up.
If you have nine receivers you can use an RF remote and set that ninth receiver up
to use RF.
Once you have all of this completed, you can throw away the aluminum foil you might
have been using to cover the receivers. Just don’t forget, if you’re using multiple
remotes, label them so you know which one you’re using!
Setting up one remote to control four receivers is easy,
and now... you know how to do it!
