How do I program my Directv remote?

Can you program a directv remote specifically for just one directv box?

• In my business I have multiple boxes set up for multiple tv's. However each remote control keeps changing every box. I would like to program a remote to only control one box, and not all them. My remote control is a RC65. I contacted support from directv and had one of the reps walk me through it, until we got disconnected. When calling back I got a different rep who said that it was impossible with the remote that I have, that to control one receiver solely (without changing the channels of all the other boxes) I needed a RF remote. Is this true? Or do I need to purchase an "rf remote". Thanks in advance!

• Answer:

  First, hopefully your receivers are all RF capable, which are confined to the HD receivers (with and without DVR). Then you'll need to buy an RF-capable remote. Get the one DirecTV offers, or an off-the-shelf solution that supports DirecTV receivers. It's the only way it'll work because all DirecTV receivers respond to the same infrared signals to execute basic actions (power, change channels, show banner, etc).
