“tell” the Hard Disk Recorder this information during the on-screen

 

setup. To update this information, go back to Setup to adjust the

 

code for your cable box or satellite receiver.

 

1. Press the MENU button on the Hard Disk Recorder remote.

 

2. Choose Setup from the Main Menu, then choose Change Dialing &

 

Input Settings.

4. Proceed through the steps to configure your box until you reach the

 

screen that asks for your cable box or satellite receiver setup code.

 

5. Press the button to clear the setup code:

 

A. If your unit required 2 digits to tune to a one-digit channel, enter

 

the code for your unit but replace the first digit with the number 6.

 

B. If your unit required 3 digits to tune to a one-digit channel, enter

 

the code for your unit but replace the first digit with the number 8.

 

Refer to “Code Numbers For Your Components” on pages 47 and 48

 

to find your code.

 

6. Continue through the remaining screens and complete the setup.

 

7. Once you have completed setup, try changing the channels on

 

your cable box or satellite receiver.

 

8. If you are still having trouble changing channels, repeat step 5

 

above with the following changes:

 

• If you used step 5A, replace the number 6 with the number 7.

 

• If you used step 5B, replace the number 8 with the number 9.
