Remote Controls - SAT Auto-Tune
SAT Auto-Tune
• The SAT Auto-Tune feature on newer DISH Network remote controls provides the ability to send the correct TV
channel for viewing satellite TV when the SAT mode button is pressed. This feature helps customers by ensuring they
are on the correct channel and helps CSRs and installers to quickly solve problems.
• The SAT Auto-Tune feature on newer DISH Network remote controls lets an installer or CSR program into the remote
control the correct TV channel used for satellite viewing. When the SAT button is pressed, the remote sends that
channel to the TV. Most snowy, blue, or black screen issues occur because the customer is on the wrong channel,
especially on TV2, and the use of SAT Auto-Tune helps prevent that issue from occurring.
• To use SAT Auto-Tune, first program the remote to operate the TV, then program in the correct channel for the TV,
and finally enable SAT Auto-Tune (for 5.3 and 6.3 remote controls).
