Channel Lists

Highlighting the Chan. Lists button on the SETUP screen and pressing the SELECT key on the remote control displays the CHANNEL LISTS screen shown.

Channel Lists are provided to help you organize the hundreds of available channels into groupings that suit the needs of your household. Each list can contain as many or as few channels as you would like. You can customize these groupings in a variety of ways. For example, Fav. A could be Dad’s favorite channels, Fav. B could be Mom’s favorites, Fav. C could be the kids’ channels, and Family could be all

channels that Mom and Dad have deemed appropriate for the entire family. Each of the lists, with the exception of Family, can be renamed.

Note: Remember that when the HD receiver is locked, only channels selected in the Family list can be viewed. This means that even though a channel appears on the Fav. A, Fav. B, Fav. C, or All Channels list, the selected channel must also be on the Family list in order to view it.

Note: For the Family list limit to be in force, the HD receiver must be locked.

On the left of the CHANNEL LISTS screen are buttons for Done, Video, AutoSet, Rename, Clear, and Set, which are explained below:

Done

Highlighting the Done button on the screen and pressing the SELECT key on the remote control causes an exit from the CHANNEL LISTS screen and a return to the SETUP screen.

Video

Highlighting the Video button on the screen and pressing the SELECT key on the remote control will return you to the last program you were viewing.

AutoSet

AutoSet is designed to help in the initial programming of your channel lists. When you select the AutoSet button, a pop-up menu appears showing each of the channel lists. Highlight and select a channel list to be programmed. Once selected, the AutoSet Progress pop-up status panel appears. It will take several minutes for the HD receiver to scan through all channels and determine which ones you are authorized to receive. The results of this scan will be stored in the designated channel list.

Note: The AutoSet Channel Scanning Process can inadvertently exclude some channels (such as the MUSIC CHOICE channels) or include some Pay Per View channels. You can manually edit your channel lists after AutoSet is done (see “Tag Boxes” below).

Rename

When you highlight the Rename button and press the SELECT key, a Rename List pop-up menu appears. You can choose any of the first three lists to be renamed. The All and Family lists cannot
