REMOTE CONTROL BASICS

•This remote control gives you easy access to all the features

of a DISH Network satellite TV receiver. Maybe best of all,

this remote lets you control DishPVR features. These features

let you record audio and video with full digital quality,

without a VCR.

•Also, you can set up the remote to control as many as three

devices along with the receiver. These can be TVs, VCRs,

DVD players, cable TV boxes, tuners, or audio amplifiers.

REMOTE CONTROL BATTERIES

The remote control comeswithAAA batteries.

When you replace old batteries, you should

replace all of the batteries. Use batteries of the

same kind, for example, alkaline or carbon

zinc, and don’t mix batteries of differentkinds.

Alkaline batteries last longer.

1.Press down on the battery cover’s

top latch and lift the cover off.

2.Take out all of the old batteries.

3.Put the new batteries in. Make sure

you match the plus (“+”) ends with the

plus markings on the battery case.

4.Fit the battery cover’s bottom tab

back into the slot at the bottom of the

battery case, and snap the cover back

into place.

REMOTE CONTROL SIGNALS: UHF AND IR

Theremotecontrolusesboth Ultra-High Frequency (UHF) radio

signals and Infra-Red (IR) light signals to control the receiver

but uses only IR signals to control other devices.

•IR signals travel only short distances (40 feet or less),

and can’t go through walls or other solid objects.

You must point the remote control right at the device

you want to control, with no objects to block the signal path.

(for info about UHF signals, please go on to the next page)

Remote Control Modes

108933 3

•UHF signals travel long distances (100 feet or more) and can

go through walls and other solid objects. Because UHF signals

travel so far, the receiver may respond to signals from other

nearby remote controls. To handle this problem, please see

Change the Address on page 6. If this doesn’t work,

please see Install an Attenuator on page 8.

•You need to attach the UHF remote antenna to the receiver’s

back panel UHF Remote Antenna input so you can use the

remote from as far away as possible.

Note: Set the antenna straight up so you can use the remote

from as far away as possible. Don’t let the antenna touch

anything.

REMOTE CONTROL MODES

You can set the remote to four different modes to control the receiver

or other devices.

1.You must set up the remote to control a device like a TV

oraVCR. PleaseseeSet Up the Remote Control on page 4

for what to do.

Note: The remote comes already set up to control the receiver.

2.Use the remote control’s mode buttons,Sat (“satellite” receiver),

TV,VCR (for a VCR or a DVD player), and Aux (“auxiliary,”

for a cable TV box, a tuner, or an audio amplifier) to set the

remote to the right mode for the device. To change the mode,

press the button for the device you want the remote to control.

The mode button flashes once to show you’ve set the remote

to that mode.

CHECK THE DEVICE CODES

You can find out what device code you’ve set for each remote control

mode. Here’s what to do:

1.Press and hold the mode button for the device, for about three

seconds. When all the other mode buttons light up, let go of the

mode button.

2.Press the Pound (#)buttontwice.

The mode button flashes the number for each digit of the device

code, with a pause between the groups of flashes. A quick flash

is for zero. For example, the mode button flashes five times,

pauses, flashes seven times, pauses, and flashes once quickly

for the 570 code.

CHANGE THE ADDRESS

Because UHF signals travel long distances and go through walls,

a neighbor’s remote may control your receiver by mistake.

To handle this problem, you can change the remote address.

Note: Here we show you examples of the receiver’s front panel

buttons. Your receiver’s buttons may look a bit different.

1.Open the Important System Information menu.

To do this, first make sure you turn the TV on.

Next, press the receiver’s front panel Power button

to turn the receiver off. Then, press the receiver’s

front panelInfo button. (Please don’t use the remote

control’s buttons because they might control your

neighbor’s receiver.)

2.The Important System Information menu

shows a Remote Address.

Write down this number: _______.

3.Press and hold the Sat mode button about three

seconds, until all the mode buttons light up,

andthenletgooftheSat button.

(pleasegoontothenextpage)

4.Use the number buttons to enter any number

from 1 to 16, but not the one you found in step 2.

The Sat mode button goes out after you enter

each digit, and then lights up again.

Write down the number you enter _______.

5.Press the Pound (#) button.

If the address you enter works, the Sat mode button

flashes three times.

6.Press the Record button.

7.This is important: Make sure the Remote Address

on the Important System Information menu now

is the same as the one you entered in step 4. If it isn’t,

the remote can’t control the receiver.

8.To check the address, press and hold the Sat mode

button for three seconds. Then, let go of the Sat button,

and press the Pound (#) button twice.TheSat mode

button flashes the same number of times as the address

youenteredinstep4.

9.Press the Select button to close the

Important System Information menu.

ATTACH THE REMOTE CONTROL ANTENNA

To use the remote’s UHF signals to

control the receiver, you must attach the

UHF antenna to the receiver’s back

panel UHF Remote Antenna input.

Set the antenna straight up so you can

use the remote as far away as possible.

Note: If you don’t attach the antenna, you can still use the remote

to control the receiver at short distances. This is because

theremotesendsboth IR and UHF signals to the receiver.

INSTALL AN ATTENUATOR

Stray UHF signals can block signals from the remote control

to the receiver. To prevent blocks, you can install a 10 dB attenuator

(you can buy one from a consumer electronics parts store).

Note: This will help keep out stray UHF signals, but also cut down

how far away you can use the remote control.

1.Take the UHF antenna off

of the receiver’s back panel

UHF Remote Antenna input.

2.Put a 10 dB attenuator onto the

UHF Remote Antenna input.

3.Put the UHF antenna onto the

attenuator.

SWITCH BETWEEN TV AND DEVICE VOLUME CONTROL

If you set up the remote to control a television, the Mute and Volume

buttons control the TV volume, in most modes. But, if you use the Aux

mode to control a tuner or amplifier and the device has a volume

setting, you can set up the remote to control the device’s volume

instead of the TV volume.

For what to do, please see the next page.
