Programming the Recover Button
Your remote controls come equipped with a
RECOVER
button that helps you if
you accidentally change the channel or video input on your remote TV and
cannot get the picture back from your satellite receiver. When you press the
RECOVER
button as described on page 56, the remote control sends
commands to your remote TV to change channels or video inputs to try to get
you back to watching satellite programming.
When your Remote Control 2 is shipped from the factory, the
RECOVER
button is set up to restore satellite TV viewing by tuning your TV to channel 3,
4, and other inputs (see page 56 for details). However, to use the
RECOVER
button with your remote TV, you need to program the
RECOVER
button with
