Schedule an STB Update
The STB Software Update feature enables the STB to check for and download software

updates on a one-time, user-defined basis. An STB Update should periodically be scheduled

in conjunction with software updates from the satellite service provider.

Note: At the time an update is scheduled to begin, the STB will be switched to

standby in order to enable it to download the update. When the update window is

over, the STB will be switched back ON; however, note that it may take up to 10 min-

utes for streaming to resume. Contact your service provider for further information.

1. With the Satellite STB Menu on display, click on the down arrow at the right of the Card

Select field, and select the appropriate transcoder card from the drop-down list of options.

2. Type the appropriate values in the Schedule STB Update fields:

• Delay Hours and Minutes: Type the number of hours and minutes to delay before the

STB Software Update is initiated.

• Length: Specify the duration for the update window in minutes.

Note: The system will not allow a maintenance window that is less than 10 minutes or over

four hours. The default value “25” is the minimum time span typically recommended for an

update. It is also recommended that you schedule a maintenance window during a time

when the STB is not likely to be used.

3. When you have completed the fields as necessary, click on the

Set button at the right of the

Schedule STB Update fields.
