Key Description
ANTENNA In TV Mode, lets you
switch the source of the video signal
from satellite signals to an off-air
antenna
or cable signal when using the OUT
TO TV jack. In VCR Mode, it functions
as a TV/VCR input key.
ARROWS Use the navigation arrows
to move the on-screen highlight up,
down, left, or right. Using the arrows
to highlight a menu item is also
called “pointing.”
CH + (UP)/ - (DOWN) Use to scan up and
down through the channels in the current
channel list. If you are in the program
guide or menu system, use the CH +/-
keys to page up and down a screen at a
time. You can also use the CH +/- keys on
the top of the digital satellite receiver to
change the channel.
CLEAR Removes the on-screen displays
and returns you to normal viewing.
COMPONENT KEYS When
programmed, these keys are used to put
the remote in a specific mode so that it
can control that component.
AUX1 and AUX2 Act as “wildcard”
keys. They can be programmed to
control another TV, VCR, DVD,
satellite receiver, cable box, or an audio
component. Follow the direct entry
programming instructions on page 7 to
program these keys.
Note: The AUX1 key is pre-programmed with
codes to control a Dish Network digital
satellite receiver.

Using The Remote To Control A Component
Because this universal remote can control several different components
(TV, VCR, DVD, etc.), it uses operational modes triggered by the
component keys. For example, if you want the remote to control the TV,
you would press the TV key to put the remote into TV Mode. Then, if
you want to play a videotape, press VCR then PLAY (pointing the
remote at the VCR).
Changing The RF Remote Control Code
Your remote control is equipped with RF functionality. This means
that the remote can control the digital satellite receiver using both IR
(infrared) signals and RF (radio frequency) signals if it is equipped with
an RF receiver. IR signals require line-of-sight to the receiver’s front
panel remote sensor. RF signals can control the receiver from other
parts of your house, even through walls. Installing your RF remote
control antenna will increase the range of your RF remote signal. See
the owner’s manual of your DBS system for more details.
Note: This feature is only applicable for RCA DIRECTV digital satellite receivers.
If you are experiencing interference from other RF components, you
may need to change the RF remote control code. To change the code
first in your satellite receiver, do the following:
8
Changing The RF Remote Control Code (Continued)
1. Select Options in the Main menu.
2. Select System Options.
3. Select RF Remote.
4. If you normally use the SAT key on your remote to control your RCA
satellite receiver, choose a number between 000 and 255. Follow the
on-screen instructions to enter this number as your RF remote control
code. However, if you use the AUX1 or AUX2 key, choose a number
between 000 and 099.
Then, to change the code on your remote to match the satellite receiver,
perform the following:
1. Press and hold the SAT key, AUX1, or AUX2 key (depending on
which key you use to control your satellite receiver).
2. Then use the Digit keys to enter the same RF remote control
code (000-255 for SAT), or (000-099 for AUX1 or AUX2) on your
remote control.
Menu Function
The Menu function is used to make changes in the selected settings,
such as setting color, channels, timer, etc. The MENU key displays TV,
DVD player, and DBS menu screens on your TV. Each Menu function
will vary from brand to brand.
