EVICES
To use the remote control to operate other devices (such as a TV, VCR, DVD player, tuner,
amplifier, or DISH satellite receiver), you must first program it to operate these other
devices. You can do this by either following the instructions in
Programming Using Device
Code Tables on page 70, or the Programming Using Device Codes Scan procedure
described on page 71.
Remote Control Modes
Use the remote control’s mode buttons, SAT (satellite receiver), TV (for a TV), DVD (for a
VCR or a DVD player), and AUX (“auxiliary,” for a second TV, a VCR or DVD, a tuner, an
audio amplifier, or a second DISH satellite receiver) to set the remote to the correct mode
for the device. To change the mode, press the button for the device you want the remote to
operate. The mode button lights for two seconds to show you have set the remote to that
mode.
Limited Mode
You can program your remote control in Limited Mode to keep from accidentally changing
the channel on your TV or VCR and causing a snowy or blue screen. When the remote
control is in Limited Mode for TV mode, you will only be able to use POWER, MUTE, and
VOLUME functions for your TV. When the remote control is in Limited Mode for VCR
mode, you will only be able to use POWER and the VCR functions for your VCR.
Note
: Limited Mode is not used with amplifiers.
