4DTV DSR-920 Remote Control
The 4DTV 3-in-1 remote control operate your satellite receiver, VCR
and TV by following the simple programming instructions presented here.
In addition, your remote control is both UHF and IR ready, so that you
may use it from virtually any location within your home.
Remote Control Range
Typical UHF range is 35 to 120 feet. The specific UHF range
of the remote control in your system is affected by many factors. Wall
and house construction materials, IRD location and other components
co-located with the receiver can all affect the performance of the UHF
transmission range. If the range in your installation is inadequate
you can improve the performance of UHF range in several ways:
- Move the "whip" antenna away from the components by adding a short
length of properly terminated 75-ohm coaxial cable. Small changes
in the positioning of the antenna can make large changes in performance.
- Add a 10dB UHF-RF amplifier between the "whip" antenna and the input
to the IRD. These small amplifiers are available at most electronics
parts suppliers such as Radio Shack. This type of amplifier will boost
the signal coming into the receiver and can help to extend the UHF
range of the remote control.
- Use existing antenna or cable wiring in your house to relocate the
supplied "whip" antenna or a small set of ‘rabbit ears’ to a more
central location in your home. Combining this with the RF amplifier
described above will provide you with maximum range.

Using Your Remote
The 4DTV remote control is set at the factory to control
all of the 4DTV receiver functions, but in order to use it to operate
your TV and VCR as well, you will need to "program" it for the brand
of TV and VCR you own.
The 4DTV remote control has three main modes of operation: 4DTV mode,
TV mode and VCR mode. This means that when you press the 4DTV, TV or
VCR keys on the remote control, you enable it to control each of these
devices, one at a time. Naturally, some of the remote control keys have
more than one function, depending upon which mode you are using at the
time. Keep this in mind as you read the descriptions for each remote
control key. Also, keep in mind that some 4DTV functions are available
only within 4DTV mode. Among these special functions are access to the
4DTV menus through the OPTIONS key, use of the Interactive Program Guide
(IPG) through the GUIDE key, and the ability to select a satellite by
using the SAT key. In addition, you can assume that if you see a key
on the 4DTV remote that you have never seen on a TV or VCR remote control,
it is only useful for 4DTV functions and can only operate when the remote
is in the 4DTV mode.

Programming the
Volume Function
One of the newest features added to the 4DTV IRD is the ability
for the remote control to operate the source volume of the receiver
via UHF and Infrared (IR). If your TV does not have remote control of
volume, or if you would like to be able to control the volume of the
receiver from other locations in your home, for whole house audio applications
for instance, you can "program" that function into the remote control.
The 3-in-1 remote is programmed at the factory to control the volume
of your TV. To reprogram the remote control to operate the source volume
of the IRD press and hold the 4DTV button at the top of the remote until
the LED light begins to flash. The key in 1-0-0. You will see the light
stop flashing. The volume function of the remote control will now bring
up a volume "bar" on the on-screen display of the receiver and allow
you to control volume via UHF and IR.

Multiple 4DTV
UHF Frequencies
If you have more than one 4DTV receiver you may want to prevent
the remote controls from affecting the other receivers. This may also
be important if your neighbor has a 4DTV. To prevent this kind of interference
you must "pair" each remote control with one receiver. In order to do
this you will have to assign a new "address" to each pair of remote
controls and receivers so that each pair functions independently of
the others.
To assign a unique "address" to a pair of remote controls and receivers:
- Press the POWER key on the receivers front panel to turn it on.
- Press the UP key and the DOWN key on the front of the receiver at
the same time. The receiver will display two figures: first an "A,"
then a second number from 0 to 3. All together, it looks like this:
"A 0." The second figure is also known as the "address" to which we
referred earlier.
- Press the UP or DOWN keys on the receiver’s Front Panel to change
the address to 0, 1, 2, or 3.
- Press the ENTER key on the front panel to memorize the change. Failure
to do this will cause the receiver to reset to the factory mode of
"A 0" the next time the power is cycled.
- Press the POWER key to exit this mode
- On the remote control that you plan to use with the receiver, press
and hold down the 4DTV key for about three seconds until the LED flashes.
- On the remote control, enter the numbers "00" and the third number
(the address) that you already have entered on the Front Panel of
the receiver (either 1, 2, or 3). If the remote control accepts the
new address, the LED will flash rapidly several times. The four possible
address combinations are "000," "001," 002’" and "003."
- If you are using the volume function to control the source volume
of the 4DTV receiver the codes should begin with the number "1." The
four possible codes for source volume control are "100," "101," 102,"
and "103."

Master Power
- Press and hold 4Dtv/SAT button until the LED blinks, release the
4Dtv/SAT button, and press and release POWER, the LED light will now
stay light, press POWER again and the LED will blink a few times and
return to normal state.
- Now when you press power it will turn on and off all three pieces
(4Dtv, TV, and VCR) with one press of the power button. To get rid
of Master Power, simply repeat the process.
Back to the TOP
Programming the Remote Control for Your
TV or VCR
- Turn on your TV or VCR
- Use the table provided below to find the brand of your TV or VCR
- After the manufacturer’s brand name is a three digit code number
(or several three digit code numbers).
- Press and hold the TV or VCR key on the 4DTV remote control for
at least three seconds – until the LED on your remote flashes.
- When the LED flashes, key in the first of the three digit codes
(listed in the table) for your TV or VCR brand using the number keys
on the remote control. Make sure to do this accurately and without
a long delay. If the remote control "accepts" the brand code, you
will see several flashes on the LED. If it does not flash, repeat
steps 4 and 5.
- After the remote control accepts the code, press the POWER key on
the remote control to make sure the remote control is able to turn
you TV or VCR off. This means it is functioning properly.
- If your TV or VCR does not respond to the remote control, even though
it has "accepted" the manufacturer’s code, repeat steps 4, 5, and
6 using the second three-digit code from the table. If this does not
work try the third code, etc., until the remote control accepts the
code and your TV or VCR responds to the remote control.
- Make a note of the correct code for your TV and VCR and store it
in a safe and convenient place. You may need it for future reference.
If the batteries on the remote control die or you remove them you
will need to reprogram the remote with these codes.

If You Cannot
Find a Compatible Code in the Tables (Scanning)
If you try to program your 4DTV remote control using the
three-digit codes, and the remote control does not work correctly, you
may be able to find a code that works by using the "scanning" process.
- Turn on the TV or VCR – depending upon whether you wish to program
the 4DTV remote control for your TV or VCR.
- Press the TV key (or VCR key) for at least three seconds – until
the LED blinks.
- Press the same key (TV or VCR) again, but don’t hold it. The LED
will now remain on without blinking. This means that the remote control
is now able to search for a code that works with your TV or VCR.
- The following steps explain how to "scan" through the TV (or VCR)
codes stored in your remote control by using the UP & DOWN keys. (The
LED will not be lit while the UP & DOWN keys are depressed.)
- While pointing the remote control at your TV (or VCR), press
the UP key to scan upward to the next code.
- If the transmitted code is the correct on, your TV (or VCR)
will turn off, responding as if its POWER key were pressed.
- If your TV (or VCR) does not respond, depress the UP key to
try the next code. When your TV (or VCR) turns on or off as a
result of the transmitted code, you will know that you have found
the correct code.
- When you have found the correct code (power to your TV or VCR
is toggled on or off), press the TV (or VCR) key. This will store
the manufacturer’s code. The LED will then flash rapidly several
times and turn off. The remote control will now resume its normal
operations.
