Controller to the top of the unit with the Controller's
transmitter pointed towards the cable box's remote

How to control the cable box
This unit has two separate methods to control your cable
box.
The unit's wireless Remote can control your cable box.
This eliminates the need for a separate cable box's Remote.
The unit's Controller can also control your cable box. This
allows the unit to change your cable box's channel number
during timer recording.
Each method must be set up separately. To set up the unit's
Remote, refer to page 93. To set up the Controller, go to
page 30.
