SAT-A3 Oiih/: The Set Up Remote screens let you set up the DSS
receiver to accept IR (infrared) or RF (radio frequency) signals from the
DSS remote control and to change the RF security code for the DSS
receiver.

You can also use this screen to display a list of codes you can use to
program the DSS remote control to operate other components, such as
TVs and cable boxes.

In addition to having IR remote control capability, your DSS system
includes an RF feature, which enables the remote control to operate the
DSS receiver even if the receiver is located in another room or is placed
behind a cabinet door. In other words, with the RF feature, the remote
control does not require a direct line-of-sight to the front panel of the
DSS receiver.

Note

You must set up the RF antenna to take advantage of the RF feature. See

"Setting Up the RF Antenna (SAT-A3 Only)" on page 19 for details.

The DSS receiver is shipped with IR transmission enabled and RF
transmission disabled. To use the RF feature, you must change the factory

setting (IR ONLY) to the RF setting (RF ONLY).

To select IR or RF transmission:

Select REMOTE CONTROL from the Setup Menu.

Select REMOTE SIGNAL and select a transmission type (IR or RF).
