Setting up local networks programming schedules
You can use your DIRECTV ® HD Receiver to receive program guide information via satellite for
local off-air and cable TV channels (when this information is available). To use this feature, you
must connect your HD Receiver to a satellite dish as described earlier in this chapter, and you
must set up the Local Network Programming option in the menu system.
To set up the Local Network Programming menu option:
1. Press the MENU button on your remote control.
2. Highlight SYSTEM SETUP and press SELECT.
3. Highlight Installation and press SELECT.
4. Highlight Local Network Programming and press SELECT.
5. Highlight Primary Off-Air Location and press SELECT.
6. Highlight the first box in the ZIP code area, then use the number buttons on
your remote control to enter your ZIP code. After a short delay, a list of cities
appears below your ZIP code.
7. Highlight the name of the city from which your local channels are broadcast
and press SELECT.
8. Highlight Back and press SELECT (the Local Network Programming screen
appears).
9. (Optional) If you receive off-air broadcasts from a second city, highlight Secondary Off-Air Location and press SELECT.
Repeat steps 6 - 8 for the second city.
10. (Optional) If you receive programming from a cable TV service, highlight Cable TV and press SELECT. Repeat steps 6 - 8
for the cable service.
11. When you have finished entering your local broadcast and cable TV information, press EXIT on your remote control.
The HD Receiver will reboot (turn itself off and then back on). After rebooting, the HD Receiver will acquire and
provide program guide information for your local off-air and cable TV channels.
Scanning off-air and cable TV channels
The program guide can receive programming information for local and cable channels via satellite (as described in the
previous section). Your HD Receiver can also add off-air and cable TV channels to the program guide by scanning for
signals from any off-air antenna or cable TV service connections you have provided.
To scan for channels from an off-air antenna and cable TV service connected to your receiver:
1. Press the MENU button on your remote control.
2. Highlight SYSTEM SETUP and press SELECT.
3. Highlight Off-Air Antenna & Cable TV and press SELECT.
4. Highlight Scan Type and press SELECT to display the list of available channel types.
