Getting Connected Using Your IR/RF Remote to Control Your DIRECTV HD Receiver The remote control included with your DIRECTV HD Receiver works in either IR (infrared) or RF (radio frequency). IR is the "typical" type of remote you are already familiar with from other remotes you may have - the remote must be pointed at the device for it to respond. RF allows you to operate the DIRECTV HD Receiver without having to point your remote directly at it, such as when the receiver is installed in a cabinet, or you use the remote from another room in your house. The operating range of the remote is up to 200 feet, with some possible decrease due to weak batteries or obstacles such as walls in your house. Your RF will be addressed to only one receiver, so will not affect other receivers in your home. To setup your remote for RF, press the MENU key, press SELECT on Settings, then select Remote from the left menu. Press SELECT on the IR/RF Setup button. Follow the onscreen instructions to configure your remote. 36 Guided Setup and Activation

Using Your IR/RF Remote to Control Your DIRECTV HD Receiver
The remote control included with your DIRECTV HD Receiver works in either IR (infrared)
or RF (radio frequency). IR is the “typical” type of remote you are already familiar with from
other remotes you may have — the remote must be pointed at the device for it to respond.
RF allows you to operate the DIRECTV HD Receiver without having to point your remote
directly at it, such as when the receiver is installed in a cabinet, or you use the remote from
another room in your house. The operating range of the remote is up to 200 feet, with some
possible decrease due to weak batteries or obstacles such as walls in your house. Your RF will
be addressed to only one receiver, so will not affect other receivers in your home.
To setup your remote for RF, press the MENU key, press SELECT on
Settings
, then select
Remote
from the left menu. Press SELECT on the
IR/RF Setup
button. Follow the onscreen
instructions to configure your remote.
