Dishdvr522 manual

Although there should be an overwrite for this ability, you can just as easily grab the other remote and select the event to record. As for there being no single mode, that is a bit disappointing but i'm sure it'll be added.

The looks great, i love having a pip in every menu i go to. The only other thing i found kind of lacking was the DVR recorded programs menu, they could easily use more of the screen to provide more information on the recorded programs. The stilll looks great to me. Thanks for the review. AppliedAggression said:. Stargazer Supporting Founder Supporting Founder. Sep 7, 16, Western WV. I really wish they could have have implemented both tuners to have UHF capability. I also wish they would have an upgrade kit that is capable of going feet instead of feet like the current kits go.

The Dish reps at the convention thought that was a good question when I had asked that. I remember some posts at dbstalk where some were trying to figure out how to extend the range of the UHF remotes that could go feet.

Maybe if they could figure out the different frequency being used in the foot range figure out how to extend the range of the feet UHF upgrade kits or something. One tuner should not fall short of the other on commanding it with the remote. And for those that say that feet is not needed, it is when several walls and a basement is involved.

I tried both remotes on my , remote 1 works fine, however remote 2 does not work my at all. Even though the remote addresses are both the same 1 They are on diffrent frequencies and again 1 is IR and the seconf is UHF.

Can your remote work on the as the tuner 1 remote? Previous Next. Post reply. Insert quotes…. Similar threads F. Replies 3 Views 1K. Jul 22, Hall. Scott Greczkowski Sep 26, 2 3 4.

This type of orbit enables the satellites to stay aligned over one place on the surface of the Earth. Once the satellite dish is aimed at the satellite, the dish does not have to move to follow it. Heavy rain, snow, or cloud cover can block the satellite signal, which can interrupt your programming service.

By aiming the satellite dish to get the strongest signal during installation, you can help prevent rain and snow from interrupting the signal. Your service will return after the weather condition has passed.

The exact time of the year that this occurs varies, depending on the location, but it is near the beginning of spring and again near the beginning of autumn.

The period of solar interference lasts for a few minutes at about the same time everyday for a few days during the spring and autumn, so do not be alarmed when it happens. This is an unavoidable natural event for all television involving the use of satellites and has an adverse effect on many program providers. Once the sun has moved from behind the satellite, the programs will reappear.

Behind this door is a slot for a future smart card. No smart card is included with this receiver. TV1 and TV2 each have recording indicators. The buttons on the receiver give you some control of the receiver. Most of the time you will want to use the remote controls that came with your receiver.

Tip: The six coaxial connections on the back of your receiver are color coded to make the connectors easy to identify. Inside the front cover of this guide are stickers that are color coded the same way as the coaxial connections.

See the installation instructions starting on page 29 for information on how to use the stickers that go on the coaxial cables. The following connections provide TV1 menus and programming to the nearby TV. Use a coaxial cable to make the connection. The TV CH 3—4 connection is color coded white.

Use an RCA-type cable assembly to make the connection. If the TV has only one input for this type of audio, connect it to the right R phono RCA audio output on the receiver.

This installation uses your in-home cable system. If your house does not have built-in cabling, it will be necessary to run cables from the receiver to each remote TV. Due to the difficulty of this installation, you should consider having this professionally installed. If you have an off-air antenna or cable connected to your inhome cable system, see Optional - Connecting to an OffAir Antenna or Cable following this section.

Find three channels next to each other on one of your remote TVs that do not pick up any signals from off-air or cable broadcasts they should show nothing but snow or static. These channels must fall in one of the two ranges below.

Disconnect the cable TV service cable or antenna cable from the splitter input, if necessary. Make sure the disconnected cable is capped or otherwise protected from the weather. Disconnect the cable coming from the receiver CH 21—69 Out port from the splitter.

If you do not know which cable this is, go to the next step. Otherwise, go to step If you have multiple TVs on the cable system, do the following to determine which cable on the splitter is coming from the receiver:.

Disconnect and reconnect each cable one by one observing what happens to the TV s. If only some or one TV loses the signal, then you have disconnected a cable from the TV s. If you do not see a picture, connect the cable back to its output. Repeat this step on every connection until you get a picture on the remote TV s. Make sure you have a good picture on your remote TV s.
