Change Receiver ID
If you are using more than one satellite receiver in the same room you may want
to change the receiver ID to avoid any interference. If you are not using the RF
antenna supplied with the SAT-A65A DIRECTV
®
Receiver, the ID can be either
“50” or “51”.
If you are using the RF antenna and RM-Y807 remote control (SAT-A65A only),
the RF ID can be a number from 00 to 15.
1. Press the
CODE SET button on the remote control.
2a. Changing IR receiver ID: Check that the RF antenna is not connected
to the satellite receiver. Enter the desired receiver ID number, either
“50” or “51”, and press the
SELECT button twice.
2b. Changing RF receiver ID: Check that the RF antenna is connected to
the satellite receiver and that you are using the RM-Y807 remote
control (SAT-A65A only). Enter the desired receiver ID number from
“00 to “15”, and press the
SELECT button twice.
3. Check that the ID has been successfully set by testing the remote control to
see that it controls that satellite receiver.
Set output channel
Use the Output Channel menu button to toggle between channels 3 and 4,
whichever is unused in your area.
Input key enable/disable
The Input Key menu button allows you to turn the remote control TV/SAT
button on and off.
Lock a channel
Use the Channel Set menu button to set the DIRECTV Receiver to permanently
stay on a specific channel. When you enter a channel number (5-0-0, for
example) then select OK, the receiver will always power up on that channel
(channel 500 in this example). The receiver will ignore any attempts to change
the channel. Set this option to “Off” to permit normal channel selection.
