To program your DIRECTV remote to work with your TV or other devices, follow these general steps:
1. Turn on your TV and the DIRECTV receiver.
2. Find the remote code for your TV:
– Look up the code for your TV brand on the DIRECTV website or in the remote’s manual. You will need this code to program the remote.
3. Program the remote using the code:
– On the DIRECTV remote, press and hold the “Menu” button until the green light at the top of the remote blinks twice and stays on.
– Press and release the “TV” button (the green light will blink and then stay on).
– Enter the 3-digit TV code using the remote’s number buttons. The green light will blink and then stay on.
– If the TV turns off, press the “Enter” button to store the code.
4. Test the remote:
– After programming, test the remote by turning the TV on and adjusting the volume or using the power button to ensure it works correctly.
5. Program other devices (optional):
– To control other devices like a DVD player or audio system, follow the same process but press the appropriate button (e.g., “DVD” or “AUX”) instead of the “TV” button.
If your remote isn’t working properly or you need help, you can also use the “Auto Search” feature, which automatically finds the correct code for your TV. To do this, follow the same steps, but instead of entering a code, press the “Enter” button after the remote blinks twice. The remote will search for the correct code automatically.
