Hi there veddrau, my name is Kimberly and I form part of the Social Media Department with DISH. Programming remote one to work with TV 2 would depend on the model of the remote you have. You can find the model of your remote located on the back of the remote, it is a usually a two digit number, like: 4.0, 6.0, 21.0, etc... If your remote is UHF, on the front of the remote at the bottom you will have a green chip with the number one on it. If you take he chip out and turn it around you should have a blue number 2 (this is the side you will need to use in order for it to work TV 2) Once this is done you will need to program the remote to the #2 tv by Pressing the System Info button on the front of the DISH receiver box, and using the remote, press and release the "SAT" button then press and release the RECORD button on remote control 3 times. If you need additional help or have any questions please reach me at: [email protected]
