Using Your Remote

All around the world, people just like you are enjoying
entertaining, educational, and informational programming
with a Motorola digital satellite receiver . In addition to
offering outstanding picture an d sound quality, your
receiver comes with a remote con trol that can be
programmed to operate your receiver, TV and auxiliary
equipment.

A Word About Modes. To enable the remote control to
operate you r r ec eiver, your TV, and your VCR, i t may ha ve
as many as five main modes of operation: SAT mode, TV
mode, DVD mode, VCR mode and AUX mode. This
means that when you press the SAT, TV, DVD, VCR or
AUX keys on the remote control, you enable it to control
each of these devic es, one at a time. Naturally, some of the
remote cont rol keys have more than one function,
depending upon which mode you are using at the time.
Keep this i n mi nd as you read the descriptions for each
remote co ntrol ke y. Also keep in mind that some SAT
functions are available only within SAT mode. Among
these spe cia l funct i ons are acces s to the men us th rou gh th e
OPTI ONS ke y, use of t he In ter acti ve Pr ogram Gu ide (IPG)
through t he GUIDE key, and the abilit y to select a satelli te
by using the SAT key.
