A method and apparatus for controlling an on-premises digital media distribution system is described. One embodiment places a device in a registration mode responsive to user input, the device being configured to decode and modulate received digital media content for distribution in analog format within a premises; receives in a wireless remote control unit a registration input from the user; transmits, responsive to the registration input, a registration message from the wireless remote control unit to the device, the registration message including a unique identifier associated with the wireless remote control unit; binds the wireless remote control unit to a media processing unit within the device such that the media processing unit responds to only those command messages subsequently received from the wireless remote control unit containing the unique identifier associated with the wireless remote control unit; and terminates the registration mode and resumes an operating mode in the device.
