Using the AUTO
Skip Feature When you select the AUTO button, the Digital Satellite Receiver
automatically scans all the stations in the current Master Guide. During
this scanning process, the Digital Satellite Receiver determines which
stations you are not authorized to watch and then sets these stations to
be skipped. You can use this feature as a starting point to creating your
own list of custom stations.
For example, if there are stations to which you do not subscribe that
appear in the Master Guide, the AUTO function automatically marks
these stations to be skipped. This saves you the trouble of having to
determine which of the 150+ stations in the Master Guide you cannot
view and then having to manually set each of these stations to be
skipped.
Note
The AUTO function does not skip pay per view stations.
To use the AUTO Skip feature:
1
Select CUSTOM STATIONS from the Options Menu.
2
Select the AUTO button.
The Digital Satellite Receiver begins to evaluate all the stations in
the Master Guide, and displays a status bar, similar to the
following.
Note
This process may take a few minutes to complete.
When the Digital Satellite Receiver is finished scanning, the station
list reappears, with checkmarks (
ü
) beside stations that are set to
be skipped.
3
Select OK to save your selections. Or select additional stations to be
skipped or unskipped.
Note
You may want to re-run the Auto skip procedure periodically in case your
program providers make changes or additions to their station lineups, or if you
order new program subscriptions.
STOP
SET CUSTOM STATIONS
Selecting STOP interrupts the Auto
Skip process and returns you to the
previous screen, which displays the
stations that have been set to be skipped
thus far.
