1. Press and hold the SAT mode button until all mode lights on the top of the remote light up.
2. Press and hold HOME and GUIDE at the same time for 5 seconds (If successful, you will hear three descending tones)
If you have the CUI, you can also hit the Menu (House) button three times. Your paired remotes will be on the right, each with an Unpair button.
LOL, thanks. That is the normal way. Read post #2 for the procedure to manually unpair the remote.
Both ways are manual. I, personally, use sdfntx's method, it just seems simpler to me. Of course, if you have more than one of the same kind of remote paired to a receiver, JSheridan's method is easiest.
I have seen a 40.0 get locked up for some reason and the manual method was all that worked. The normal method wouldn't.
I have 8 remotes paired to only one H3 and still not enough. Also use two 21.0sI've got 8 remotes paired to each Hopper.
Both are good to know. As Bobby also said, I consider my option to be manual, too, and much easier to remember. As long as it gets done . . .
If you had cat6 wired through out you could have a hdmi splitter instead of rf modulators. Maybe a future project?
I only have 2 remotes paired to the h3, mine and hers.
I have 3 paired to my H3. A 40, 50, and 52. And the one I use the most, unpaired, is my Harmony 700!
LOL, too tired for any more projects. My DISH TV hobby has costed me enough for now.
Today I had to manually un-pair a 54.0 remote because the Hopper it was paired to is no longer here and I had to use it on a new Hopper. So I Googled how to do it because I forgot and got this thread. Pretty sad when you Google something and find that you were the one who originally posted the answer. Getting old is a bitch.
