programmed to control most RCA, GE and ProScan TVs and VCRs. The

Receiver

The remote can control two DSS

®

receivers. From the Main menu,

select

Options, then System Options, then Remote Setup. Choose

which button, DSS1 or DSS2, will control the DSS

®

receiver.

Changing the RF Remote Code

The remote can control the DSS

®

receiver using both IR (Infrared)

signals and RF (radio frequency) signals. 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.

Occasionally, due to interference or other RF devices, you may need to
change the remote and receiver RF code. Change the code in the
System Options menu.
