Pairing your DTA remote to your DTA box

Once your DTA is plugged in and your TV and DTA are powered on, you can 

pair your DTA remote to your DTA box. Pairing the DTA remote to the DTA 

box will allow you to use all functions of the DTA box, such as the “GUIDE” 

and “MENU”.

Your DTA remote will work with your DTA right out of the box. However, 

there are times when pairing a DTA remote to the DTA is necessary. For 

example, if you would like to put your DTA behind your TV (out of line of 

sight of the remote), you will need to pair the remote to the DTA. 

Customers also need to pair the remote to the DTA if they have several TVs 

that are close together to eliminate changing the channel on the wrong TV. 

1. Put provided AA batteries in the remote.

2. Point remote at DTA.

3. Press and hold “SETUP” until the LED at the top of the

remote blinks twice and then press “MENU” 

4. LED will blink continuously until paired.

5. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete pairing.
