1. Set Channel Frequency: Assign a frequency to
each channel, which will correlate to the accom-

manually set frequency on the RF Frequency
screen or scan for available frequencies and assign
a frequency to each channel from the Frequency
Scan screen.
2. Set Compatibility Mode: From the Quick Access
Menu or the Audio Setup Menu, set compatibility
modes for each channel.
3. Set Encryption Keys: From the IR Sync & En-
cryption Menu, select a key type and then create a
key (if needed).
NOTE: See Encryption Key Management for
more instruction.
4. Sync Settings: From the Quick Access Menu or
the IR Sync & Encryption Menu, initiate sync for
each channel via the IR port. Hold the target trans-
mitter close to the IR port on the front panel of the
DSQD. Select SEND ALL. A message will appear
on the main screen letting you know the sync was
successful. Messages will appear letting you know
if the sync was successful.
