• 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.

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
or a VCR. Please see Set 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.
