## set up dish remote to tv

The DISH Network remote control is designed to control not only the DISH Network receiver, but most other devices in your home theater system. A single remote control can be used to control the entire entertainment center, simplifying and enhancing the display. DISH Network is working hard to maintain an accurate and comprehensive remote code database, but the code provided may not work on the device or no code is currently available. In this case, you can perform a power scan.

Power scan scans all remote cords from 000 to 999 while sending a power off signal. When the device is powered off, you’ll find code that works for the device.

**1. Prepare your device and remote control for power scanning.**

Devices that program and control DISH Network remote controls are powered on, standing within 10 feet of it, glass entertainment center doors and other seemingly “see-through” objects.

**2. Press and hold the mode button.**

There are four clear buttons on the top of the DISH Network remote control. These are the mode buttons used to select the device to control with the remote control.

TV: In this mode, the remote control controls the TV, such as changing the volume function and TV channels and inputs. If the remote control is programmed on your TV, you don’t need to be in TV mode to control the volume. This can be done from SAT mode. To use normal display functions, you usually need to put the remote control in SAT mode.

**VCR / DVD:** This button is used to program your VCR or DVD player so you can control the power supply. You can use the DISH Network remote control to control the DVR receiver to control play, pause, stop, rewind, and other VCR / DVD functions. …

**AUX:** Auxiliary mode is used to program the remote control to additional electronics in your home theater system, such as additional VCR / DVD players and stereo equipment.

Press and hold the mode button you want to program for about 10 seconds and all mode buttons will light up.

When you release the mode button, the button you are programming will start blinking.

**3. Press and release the large red power button.**

Press and release the large red power button while the desired mode button is flashing (not if you have a small “TV” power button). When released, the desire mode button will stop blinking and stabilize.

**4. Start pressing the up button.**

You can start pressing the up button while the desired mode button is lit. As shown in the image below, the top button is the button just above the “Select” button. You need to make sure that the desired mode button is off instead of on to make sure that the remote control is performing a power scan when you press the up button.

Press and hold the up button about once every 2 seconds. This process can take a few minutes.

**5. The device will turn off.**

If you find the code that the device responds to, you know that the device will power off. As soon as this happens, press the pound button to program the code into the mode button.

When you press the pound button, the mode button flashes quickly and then disappears.

Test remote functionality now. Can I power cycle the device to perform other controls?

If you can’t find the code for your device, we apologize. Unfortunately, electronic devices are so different that it is not possible to guarantee that one remote will work with all remotes.
