I programmed one of these for use upstairs and one downstairs - now the remotes keep changing channels on both tvs instead of being able to watch each tv independently - any solutions to this problem?

I believe there is no way to change the RF frequency so that each remote operates on a different frequency. Here are two things to try:1 Adjust the antenna on the powerblaster or maybe even remove it so it only operates in limited distance. Call Universal and ask for tech support 914 835-4484.

If you have the RF base units installed in both viewing areas, each will pick up RF transmissions from either remote if it is within range. You might try taking one of the RF base units out of one viewing area so that it becomes IR (line of sight) only. You may need to do that in both areas to prevent this "crosstalk"---hope this helps....

Use IR only or get an addressable remote and rf base station. This remote does not have a dress a bowl RF

They need to be matched up with with the toggles in the remote. You can change the channels if you have different remotes.

Good luck, I could not find ones that worked when I searched around. The only way I was able to set up another remote on this terrible unit, was through auto scan on my cable providers remote control.

The remotes have several addresses they use. Set the address of one unit to a different address. I have seen four units in a room with no interference. Check your dish manual for how to set the addresses. Both IR and UHF receivers have these address settings.

I can only come up with 2 possibilities: 1) like me you received a bum unit, or 2) the distance between the remotes & main unit is too far. Mine won't transmit from the basement freezer to the upstairs.

Mine wouldn't do the auto program or the one where you point the old one at it and press all the buttons. I had to do it one button at a time, manually. As to how that works, I'm sorry but I can't remember exactly. I just remember fighting with the thing for a long time. This remote has now become nearly useless, as the main select button has to be mashed hard to get it to react, and the up/down selector ring is also barely functioning. It has also become very position sensitive and has to be pointed directly at the Dish box to work, and is slow even then. I have bought a new Sony RM-VLZ620 to replace it. Sorry I was not more help. If I knew then what I know now about the URC, I would have sent it back. You should too.

I tried this but had no luck with it. I lost signal from one no matter what i tried.Let me know if you have any luck. I ended up running two cables to a switch inside the house and switch from one to the other. tljohson61@gmail.com

In my experience they do not work well together. I tried using two of them, but it didn't matter which remote I was using at the time, it turned the light/appliance on and off that was connected to the other remote. Perhaps I had two matched sets, but others may have different circuitry. Give it a try and return one set if it doesn't work the way you want.

Sounds like you will have conflict of two signals on the same bands. I have seen houses with two dish or antennas, but I suppose there is a switch in thier line or receivers.

Not sure what the problem is for you. I have this same television and U-Verse service and haven't had any troubles with my remotes. Perhaps you can get a replacement remote from AT&T; or at least have them try a different one.

I have dish and even knowing the code for it it would not work. Using separate remotes.

I have no idea. I only have the one set which I have been very happy with, but I have no idea how a second set will interact with each other. You might check internally on the remotes & recievers to see if there are "Dip Switches" that could be reset to a different code to eliminate possible interaction. That's my best guess for you !

It sounds like you may have hit the 'sat' button at the top of the Dish remote instead of the 'tv' button when you programmed it. You will probably have to call Dish to get the 'sat' code working again and after that, hit 'tv' and repeat process. Hope this helps.

Depending on the model of your opener it may only accept one code switch setting so all the remotes need to be set to the same code. Id the code switches are different only the last one learned will work.

If cable is find then try using a different splitter. If not that, then maybe you have bad piece of coaxial going to TV #2. I don't know what else it could be. My cable is in the attic and already had a splitter feeding two TVs in bedroom upstairs and living room downstairs. I just disconnected main cable (at the splitter) coming into home and reconnected to antenna. Both TVs work fine. I have a 55in Sony Bravia and a 40in Samsung, both flat LCD LED 1080p. Good luck.

Actually, we have a newer Panasonic tv (viera), and we can control both models with the same remote control. I think I would try to get another Panasonic remote and give that a try.

Hi, if you are pertaining to the remote codes so as to program your universal remote to control this TV, apparently those remote codes will be provided by the universal remote you are trying to use. You may check its manual for further assistance. -Ely
