CREATING A NEW SATELLITE:
As an example we'll program the GE-1 SATELLITE. Because the remote does not have a W for use as a direct access name you will have to decide weather to name it something else or just name it W1. The majority of satellite guides are referring to GE-1 as W1 so we will as well.

This will bring up the ADD/UPDATE SATELLITE screen, notice each line lists a satellite and some info about each. You need to find a line is filled with * * * *. Use the W (WEST) button to scroll a whole page at a time until you get to the page this is on (usually right below S2). Press the CH down button until the arrow points to that line.
• Press SETUP, the line now shows A1, press the CH down button until the A changes to W. Change the satellite name to GE1 by using the W (West), Ch up and Ch down buttons.
