Introduction
Two remote controls come with your receiver:
•
An Infrared (IR) remote to control programming for the TV near the
receiver. This remote is labeled with a green number 1, which
matches similar markings on the receiver output connections and the
menus for the nearby TV.
•
An Ultra-High Frequency Pro (UHF Pro) remote to control
programming to a second TV located in another room away
from the receiver. This remote is labeled with blue number 2,
which matches the similar markings on the receiver output
connections and the menus for the remote TV.
Overview
Before
you use your satellite receiver
, you need to install the system or
have it installed by a professional technician. For a professional installation,
please call the Customer Service Center at 1-800-333-DISH (3474). If you
install the system yourself, use the instructions in Chapter 2.
A vital part of the installation is to set up the receiver to get the
latest software from the satellite signal. If you are installing a
new system and follow the instructions in Chapter 2, your
receiver will automatically get this software.
