THE DIGITAL SATELLITE RECEIVER’S MENU SYSTEM

Scheme

The SCHEME pop-up menu enables you to select a color scheme for your on-screen guides and menus.

Language

The DEFAULT LANGUAGE pop-up menu enables you to specify the language track for programs you watch. While English is the default language, you may choose an alternate language. If your chosen language is available for the program, you will hear it in that language. Otherwise, you will hear will be the primary language in which the program produced.

Filters

The default setting for Filters is “Temporary.” With a setting of “Temporary,” each time you leave the on-screen guide, all filters other than Channel List will reset (all categories and complete class). If you change the Filters setting to “Persistent,” any filtering that you should happen to do will survive exiting the on-screen guide and be in effect for the OneLine Guide and even later when returning to the on-screen guide at a later time.

Advanced Preferences

The ADVANCED PREFERENCES screen contains options that are less likely to require changes once they are set. Most users will not make any

changes to this screen. This screen also provides a means to reset all preference options to the factory defaults.

Things to do in the ADVANCED PREFERENCES screen

Receiver ID

Someday, you may choose to get a second digital satellite receiver. If both receivers are in the same room or if you are using an RF remote control or a remote control extender, you may experience interference between signals. To avoid this “cross talk,” simply highlight the Receiver ID button and

press on the remote control to be used for that specific digital satellite receiver. Remember to set your remote control to the desired code first. For information regarding changing the remote control code, see the chapter “Programming Your Remote Control.”

PBX Access

In some installation environments you may need to dial a PBX Access number to connect to an outside line. Commonly this is either an 8 or a 9. You may specify up to 3 digits.

Note: This is NOT the first three digits of your telephone number or area code and should be left as “- - -“ if you do not need to dial numbers to obtain an off-site dial tone.
