are located between two network areas and intend to receive programming from both via your off-air antenna.

4Guided Setup Complete: the final screen in the Guided Setup process. If you’re setting up both your dish and antenna, the receiver will need to reset at this point in order to receive program guide information for the digital off-air channels in your area. After the reset, many of these channels will appear in the guide. If you need to remove some of the channels from the guide or there are channels you expect to receive locally that are missing, you can make adjustments for these channels in System Setup. Press MENU on the remote, select Settings, then Setup, then Sat & Ant in the left menu option on the left side. Follow the instructions on screen.

Options For Changing Video Output

In order to optimize the display of programs on your television, you may occasionally need to change the resolution and/or screen format. There are two buttons that can be used to make changes: the FORMAT button on the remote control and the RESOLUTION button on the front panel of the receiver.

FORMAT Button on your remote

Pressing this button will cycle the resolutions that you’ve indicated in System Setup as being supported by your TV. In addition, it will cycle the three available screen formats in conjunction with each individual resolution. Available screen formats are based on the TV Aspect Ratio you set in System Setup. With each press, a small on screen message will let you know what the current resolution/format setting is. For example, if you indicated that your TV supports only 1080i and 480i/p and it is a 16:9 television, the cycle of settings for the FORMAT key are as follows:

1st press: 480i/p/Full

5th press: 1080i/Zoom

2nd press: 480i/p/Zoom

6th press: 480i/p/Pillar Box

3rd press: 1080i/Pillar Box

7th press: repeat cycle

4th press: 1080i/Full
