Older style White remote work HR24

  • Server Issues.

    We are very aware that there have been system issues the past few days. In troubleshooting the system, it has been determined that the issue is at our provider and is hardware related. The provider was going to move us to a new server, however we are now told by the provider the issue is at the data center in St. Louis. They have offered to move us to a different datacenter on the East Coast or West Coast, however at this time we have declined the move to a different data center as it would affect the speed of connecting to about half our members.

    We are waiting for more information from our provider, however we are trying to ride this out to stay in the same data center, so that when the server is fixed all users in the US will get the fastest connection possible.

    If after some time the issue is not resolved we will be forced to move to another data center, if this happens there will be down time, as they will need to transfer everything to the new server and we will need to update the DNS and other settings for the new IP address of the new server. If we have to do this, the time it will take to move will be out of our hands.

    We are going to try our best to weather through this, so we thank you in advance if you encounter any issues.

    Sorry for the issue!

This info use to be here somewhere ...
I just got a new (supposed new, recycled we know) HR24, but it didn't come with a remote ...
I have a RC65rbx remote that I have sitting around ...
I know the old white remotes will work the HR24, as the old one was working it.

What is the procedure to make these two work together ....
 
Jimbo IR or RF mode?

For RF mode go into Menu, Settings & Help, Settings, Remote Control, IR/RF Setup, choose which one you want, and follow instructions.

For RF mode you press MUTE and SELECT together until the indicator at the top blinks twice. Thereafter, type ‘961’ and Channel UP. Then, type the last six digits of the Receiver ID of the HR24 and press ‘SELECT’. You are in RF mode. Press ‘SELECT’ on RF SUCCESSFUL.

For IR mode press MUTE and SELECT together until the indicator at the top blinks twice. Type ‘961’ and then CHANNEL DOWN. Press ‘SELECT’ and be sure the HR24 reacts.

Thanks for the info, I did get it figured out last night.
961 is suppose to work, but I found it was not ... problem I found was that the remote was already in RF mode, I eventually got it back to IR mode, then I could program it the normal way and then go back to RF ....
Apparently, you can't do this without being in IR mode.
