FEATURES OF THE DIGITAL SATELLITE RECEIVER

Power On Requirements

When the Digital Satellite Receiver is powered on, the receiver will tune to the last tuned channel. If this channel no longer exists, the receiver will tune to channel 100. Prior to initial setup of the receiver, the receiver may automatically go to Setup menu or tune to channel 100.

Tuning Mode

The Tuning Mode happens when the user attempts to change the channel. The Digital Satellite Receiver will support 3 ways to change the channel, as outlined below:

Method		Result
• Direct Tuning (0-9and PROG keys)		Tunes directly to a channel using
		either single or compound numbers.
•	Channel UP/Down Tuning (πθkeys)	Tunes to the next/previous available
		channel.
•	Rapid Tune (R-TUNE)	Switches between the last two
		channels, accessed. This is
		accomplished using the R-TUNEkey
		on the remote.

Direct Tuning Method

The Digital Satellite Receiver supports the tuning of either single or compound channel numbers. The single channel numbers range from (0 to 9999) and compound channel numbers (major-minor) can range from (0-0 to 999-99)*. The compound channel number uses the “PROG” button to enter the minor number field. Following is an example of Direct tuning screen.
