Hello, I got a UHF 6.0 remote and I am trying to set it up for use with a 622. I want it to control TV2 so I set it to the same address (9) as the remote that came with the 622. The 622 uses a 6.3 UHF remote and you can select either Band A or Band B. The 6.0 I got has no such switch. My Q is can you use a 6.0 UHF remote to control TV2 or must you have a 6.3? Are there any workarounds?

Thanks

The 6.0 remote is a Band A only remote and will work well with 622. I am using one. Besides the lack of Band B it also may not fully control some of the latest TVs and other peripherals devices.

My 6.3 is set to Band A and channel 9. Set the 6.0 to channel 9 and it should work as well? I am going to use it to control TV2 of the 622 and an older Sony TV.

I took my 6.0 remote and changed the address to 9 and it still does not work for TV2.

I went to the System Info and it said IR/UHF Pro Band A with an address of 9.

On the 6.0 remote I held teh SAT button until all the lights blinked. I then entered 9 then # then select. This changes the address on the 6.0 remote. It still will not control TV2. I have the key flipped to the blue 2 side as well. Any advice?

Thanks
