    2 VU+ Recievers remote problems

    I have just purchased a VU+ Zero 4k from sponsor to go alongside a solo 2, the zero will be hooked up to motorised dish and solo 2 fixed sky dish.

    Problem I'm having is the remote doesn't know how to differentiate between the two receivers and issues commands to both, I've tried with my harmony and the same happens. I press power on and both come on etc.

    Are there any work arounds for this scenario?

    Stick insulation tape over the “eye” on whichever receiver you are not using. Not elegant but should work

    Hi,
    VUs have 4 dirrent IR "languages" you can set each box to a different "language" with the plugin RemoteControlCode and then program the remote also to these codes. Details are in the manual.

    ciao
