Programming the remote control
Your DIRECTV ® High-Definition Receiver’s remote control can be programmed to
operate your TV, VCR, DVD player and other A/V equipment. There are two ways
to program your remote control:
• Manual method: Using this method, you use the code lists provided in this
chapter to enter the code for your band of TV, VCR, etc.
Try this method first; it tends to be faster.
• Scanning method: Using this method, you use your remote control to go through
the possible codes sets one at a time until you find one that
works for your device. Try this method if there is no code listed
for your brand of device, or if the listed codes do not work.
Manual method
To use the manual method to program your DIRECTV HD Receiver’s remote control,
follow these steps:
1 Turn on the device you want to control.
2 Aim the DIRECTV HD Receiver’s remote control at the device.
3 Simultaneously press the SET button and the device button for the device you
want to program your remote control to operate, (the TV button, for example).
The device button lights up.
4 Enter the three-digit code for your device (see the code lists on the following
pages).
If the entered code is correct, the device will turn off.
5 Press the device button again.
The button should blink twice and then turn off.
6 Repeat the procedure for other devices you wish to operate with your
DIRECTV HD Receiver’s remote control.
