Change the Address

When you receive your system, both remote controls and the receiver have

been set to communicate on address 1. However, because UHF signals travel

long distances and go through walls, a neighbor’s UHF Pro remote could

control your receiver by mistake if they are on the same address. To handle

this problem, you can change address on Remote Control 2 and the receiver

as follows:
1. Make sure you turn on the TV.

2. With the receiver off, press CHANNEL UP or CHANNEL DOWN on

the receiver’s front panel to display the

screen on a remote

TV.
