DISH Network 6.2 User Manual

Because your remote control uses UHF, you may experience 
interference from other nearby remotes. The instructions in this section 
describe how to avoid remote conflicts.

One quick way to avoid remote conflicts is by changing the address on 
your remote and receiver. If you notice that your receiver is changing 
channels or opening menus but you’re not using the remote control, a 
quick change of address should fix the problem. Use these instructions 
to change the remote control and receiver address.

1.

Press SYSTEM INFO on the receiver's front panel. The System 
Information screen displays and shows the Remote Address.

Write down the address shown:

2.

Press and hold SAT on your remote control for about three 
seconds, until all of the mode buttons light up, and then let go of 
SAT.

2

Press  the  POUND (#) but-

ton twice. The mode button 
flashes the number for each 
digit of the equipment 
code, with a pause between 
the groups of flashes. A 
quick flash is for zero.

 For example, if the code is 570, 
the mode button flashes five 
times, pauses, flashes seven 
times, pauses, and flashes once 
quickly.

For AUX mode, the first 
group of flashes tells you 
what the AUX mode 
controls. A quick flash 
(zero) before the three-digit 
code is for a TV; one 
regular flash is for a VCR 
or DVD player; and two 
flashes is for a tuner or 
amplifier. 

For example, if the TV code is 
570, the AUX mode button 
flashes once quickly, pauses, 
flashes five times, pauses, 
flashes seven times, pauses, and 
flashes once quickly.
