Setting Up by Learning from Another Remote

After you have programmed your DISH remote to control your devices (in TV, DVD, and/or
AUX modes), you may find not all of the commands used by the devices' original remote
controls function as you expect. The learning function of your new DISH remote control
can support these commands.
The remote control can learn commands in two ways:
1
You can use the Remote Manager to program a specific mode, and then learn commands
that add new functions or overwrite existing functions of the remote control's buttons in
this mode. For this type of learning, any remote-control button without a learned command
keeps the pre-existing command (if any) for that programmed device code.
2
Each button on this remote control can learn a command from the equipment's original
remote control. For this type of learning, any remote-control button without a learned
command will have no function for that programmed device mode.
To "teach" your DISH remote-control buttons specific commands for your devices,
complete the following:
1
Press the MENU button, select the
Settings tile, then Remote Manager.
2
Select the the option for which device
mode you want to learn commands: TV
Code, DVD Code, or AUX Code.
3
On the next screen, select the Learn option
for this device.
