R16 - 2 remotes

regression · Oct 21, 2009

Hi, here is my setup and what I want to do. Hoping someone can tell me if it is possible.

I have one R16NC-300 in my den. I have a TV in my office that is running off the same "feed". So I have one receiver, two TV's. Which is OK since it is only me here and I never need to have two live programs on at once.

I have a RC64RB and BODY { FONT-FAMILY:Tahoma; FONT-SIZE:10pt } P { FONT-FAMILY:Tahoma; FONT-SIZE:10pt } DIV { FONT-FAMILY:Tahoma; FONT-SIZE:10pt } TD { FONT-FAMILY:Tahoma; FONT-SIZE:10pt } RC64R. I am currently using the RC64RB. Since it is RF, it works in either room. Of course only one TV's volume works at a time.

What I want to do is keep one remote in the den and one in the office. Each one will be setup to control the appropriate TV's volume.

However, I can't seem to have both remotes working on RF..... Am what I wanting possible?

not with two remotes. you could with one remote. just program the remote you use to control both tv's. one tv is programed under tv mode and program the other under AV1 or AV2.

You can program 2 RF remotes to work with one receiver, and have each remote tied to the tv in the room it is in.

OK, I will give it another try. When I have one working, the other RF remote won't do anything on the receiver.....

With the receiver and one of the RF remotes in RF mode, leave them alone, just do the following on the second RF remote:

1. dtv
2. press and hold MUTE & SELECT for two blinks
3. enter 0 0 0 0 1

4. press and hold MUTE & SELECT for two blinks
5. enter 9 6 1
6. press CH UP
7. enter the last 6 digits of the receiver ID #, found on a sticker in the access card compartment
8. press SELECT

Thanks! The above worked, except I had to enter 0 0 0 2 instead of 0 0 0 1.
