Setting the Local Time options
The Local Time setting (in the Installation section of the Setup menu) allows you to control whether to allow your service provider to automatically control two time settings:
the time zone your DIRECTV® Receiver uses, and
whether your DIRECTV® Receiver observes Daylight Savings Time.
If you turn the Local Time Setting on, you can choose a time zone and decide whether or not to observe Daylight Savings Time. With the Local Time setting off, your service provider automatically controls these settings for you. Follow these steps to turn the Local Time Setting on or off, and (if you turn it on) to set your Time Zone and Daylight Savings Time observance.
1 Press the MENU button on your remote control.
2 Highlight the Setup menu item, then press the SELECT button.
3 Highlight the Installation menu item, then press the SELECT button.
4 Highlight the Local Time menu item, then press the SELECT button.
To change the Local Time Setting, highlight it using the arrow
5 buttons on your remote control, then press the SELECT button. A list appears from which you can indicate whether you want the local time setting on (you set the time zone and daylight savings time observance), or off (your program provider controls the time settings).
Highlight On or Off, then press the SELECT button. The list disappears, and the Local Time
6 Setting menu item reflects your choice. If you turn the Local Time Setting off, the Time Zone and Daylight Savings Time options are controlled by your program provider; these menu items become unavailable. If you turn the Local Time Setting on, continue with the following steps to set your time zone and whether you wish to observe daylight savings time.
