Remote won't work the DTV receiver?

I set my HR64 remote to work with my Element tv and it works, but now the remote won't work the DTV receiver. Does anyone know how to fix this? I have unplugged the receiver for 15 seconds, but that did not help.

what is the model of your receiver?  


Are you sure your receiver is not set for RF instead of IR?

It's a Hughes SD-HBH and no, I am not sure what it is set for. How do I check that?

Sorry, my remote is a RC64. I don't know how I made that mistake.

That worked! I don't know how you knew that, but I'm just happy it worked. Thank you so much. (00749)

8 year old thread CLOSED.

Also there is no HR64. As of 2021 it is Genie HR34, HR44, HR54 (or revised HR54R1), Genie Lite H44, or Genie-2 (HS17).
