ACTIVATING AND DEACTIVATING THE RF

Your DIRECTV Remote Control features RF (radio
frequency) capability. When you activate the RF feature of
your remote control, you can control your DIRECTV
Receiver from anywhere in your home. You do not need to
be within the line of sight of your receiver to control it.
NOTE: Not all DIRECTV Receivers are RF-capable. Also,
some RF-capable DIRECTV Receivers include integrated
RF antennas and do not require an external antenna. If
your receiver requires the external RF antenna, before
activating the RF transmitter, locate the RF antenna
included with your remote control and insert it into the RF
remote antenna coaxial connector on the back of your
DIRECTV Receiver.

Control, perform the following steps:
