When you use features on the receiver, you might be required to enter information, such as the
name of a movie when using Search, into areas known as text fields. Your receiver has two basic
ways to enter the information:
• Virtual Keyboard
• Remote Control NUMBER PAD
Using the Virtual Keyboard
Use the virtual keyboard letters to type the information. Use the LEFT,
RIGHT, UP, and DOWN ARROWS to navigate around the keyboard.
Select the characters you want.
Using the Number Pad
Use the letters above the NUMBER PAD on the remote control while the
highlight is in the field. For example, when looking for the channel and
times to watch Rudy Friml Presents, you press 7 three times for an R, 8
two times for a U, 3 one time for a D, and 9 three times for a Y to spell the
word “Rudy.”
While in the Text Field
When the cursor is in the field:
• Press the LEFT ARROW to delete characters.
• Press 0 to enter a blank space, such as between words.
• Press STAR to backspace without deleting characters.
• Use the RIGHT ARROW to forward space without deleting characters.
