The Only Rule: Point and Select

The Only Rule: Point and Select

You only need to know one rule to use the DSS system: Point and

Select. Once you master this rule, you can use any part of the Program

Guide or the menu system.

What is Point and Select?

SELECT/DISPLAY

ARROW

KEYS

The Point and Select method has two steps.

1. Point

You point by pressing the arrow keys on the remote or front panel. Pressing the arrows keys (referred to as the “arrows”) moves the on-screen highlight to different items in the Program Guide and the menu screens. Pressing an arrow once moves the highlight one space in the direction of the arrow.

For example, to point down (that is, to move the highlight towards the bottom of the screen), press the down arrow. To point right, press the right arrow.

2. Select

Once you have pointed to an item on the screen, select it by pressing the SELECT/DISPLAY button on the remote or front panel (called SELECT in this manual). Selecting an item tells the menu system to go ahead and make the change you have indicated.

For example, the instructions in the User’s Manual might tell you to: Point to the Help button and press SELECT.

Now that you know how to use Point and Select, you can use any part of the DSS system, beginning with the Program Guide.
