Transmission
The DSS receiver is shipped with only
IR enabled.
The Set Up Remote screens let you set up the DSS receiver to accept IR
(infrared) or RF (radio frequency) signals from the DSS remote control
and to change the RF security code for the DSS receiver.
In addition to having IR remote control capability, your DSS system
includes an RF feature, which enables the remote control to operate the
DSS receiver even if the receiver is located in another room or is placed
behind a cabinet door. In other words, with the RF feature, the remote
control does not require a direct line-of-sight to the front panel of the
DSS receiver.
Note
You must set up the RF antenna to take advantage of the RF feature. See
"Setting Up the RF Antenna" on page 22 for details.
The DSS receiver is shipped with IR transmission enabled and RF
transmission disabled. To use the RF feature, you must change the
factory setting (IR ONLY) to the RF setting (RF ONLY).
