System Test

The System Test display screen is accessed through the

Options

menu, and allows you to initiate diagnostic procedures on the

DSS

®

system. You should use this feature to get your Access

Card number, or when your receiver doesn’t seem to be working

correctly. There are four separate tests: signal, tuning, phone

connection, and access card.

A message screen appears, telling you whether the system

passed each test. If your system fails a test, run the system test

several times before concluding that there is a problem.

Occasional fluctuations in the phone line or satellite signal can

give temporary false readings.

New Access Card Setup

Periodically, your program provider may issue you a

replacement access card. The New Access Card Setup display

screen allows you to transfer the information from the old card

onto the new one.

Follow the display screen prompts to initialize your new card.

Once you have transferred the information to the new card, your

old card becomes invalid.

Because your specific account information and custom settings

are stored in the access card, power failures should have no

effect on your DSS

®

system.

Using On-Line Help

On-line Help is available for all of the menus and display

screens. The System provides Auto Help, Help buttons, and

Menu Help.
