TV Service Provider
Select your TV service provider, including standard cable provider, digital

cable provider, or satellite provider.
If you have digital cable service or satellite TV service, select the brand

of TV service set-top box. If you do not know the brand, see your TV

service documentation or contact your TV service provider.

Choose Number of Digits and How You Change Channels
If you have digital cable service or satellite service, select the highest

number of channels you receive through your cable set-top box or

satellite set-top box: two digits, three digits, or four digits.

Note

The Recorder adds leading zeros to channel numbers that have

fewer digits than you selected above. For example, if you select “4-

digits” the Recorder sends “0044” to the digital cable set-top box or the

satellite set-top box to change to channel 44. If the channel does not

change correctly, the set-top box may not recognize the leading zeros.

To correct this, select Yes, I have to press ENTER or OK on the How do

you change channels? page. You can change this setting by selecting

Start > Settings > Guide Setup > Set up TV Signal and Guide.
When you have to enter a channel manually, how do you enter it?

Do you:

En

ter the channel number using a remote control, and then the

channel changes?

En

ter the channel number using a remote control, and then

press OK or ENTER to change the channel?

If you press OK or ENTER, the Recorder enter the OK or ENTER for you.

When you enter a channel number by using the Recorder remote, the

Recorder will also “press” OK for you; you won’t have to press it.

After you select the actions that change the channels, set up the

Recorder to change the channels by using the IR control cable or the

serial data control cable.

Note

Although many cable set-top boxes and satellite set-top boxes

do not require you to press OK or ENTER to change a channel by using

the set-top box remote control, some of these set-top boxes cannot be

controlled by the Recorder remote control without OK or ENTER being

pressed. You may need to select the OK or ENTER option if you find the

Recorder remote does not change the set-top box channels properly.
