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 longer distances than IR signals 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 12).
•
If you're set up to use UHF, make sure that the UHF remote
antenna is attached to the receiver's back panel R
A
input so it can receive the UHF remote signals.
