Troubleshooting

2.Press the GUIDE button twice and check if the Program Guide is set to show All Channels or All Subscribed. If another Favorites list is displayed, then other channels may appear to be missing. If you try to access channels not shown in the current list, then the receiver skips over them.

3.Try resetting your satellite receiver. Press the red reset button behind the small door on the left side of your receiver’s front panel and wait a few seconds. You can also press the POWER button on the remote control to turn it off (in standby mode), then unplug the satellite receiver from the power outlet for at least 30 seconds, plug it back in, and select POWER again to turn it back on (out of standby mode).

4.If you are using the optional digital tuner module and missing local channels, see Missing Over-The-Air channels (optional module).

Missing Over-The-Air channels (optional module)

1.Your ViP922 receiver is able to tune satellite TV channels and local digital channels (with an optional, digital OTA tuner module). It is possible that some missing channels are channels still broadcasting in analog.

2.You can go to the website www.antennaweb.org to find out which local channels in your area are currently broadcasting a digital signal. If the channel you are missing is still broadcasting in analog, you can view the channel using a TV’s analog tuner. To view any analog channels, you may need to change input/source or channels on your TV using the TV’s remote control. When you want to return to watching digital channels using your ViP922 receiver, change back to the correct input/ source or channel on your TV.

3.Check the Signal Strength bar for Over-The-Air (OTA) channels; select MENU and then the Main Menu’s Settings tile, scroll down, and select Local Channels, then the option to Add a New Channel. Find a channel experiencing problems and verify it has a strong signal. OTA channels with an indicated signal strength below approximately 60 are likely to experience some video loss.

4.Your antenna may need to be adjusted. Contact your local installer or antenna retailer, as applicable, for assistance. If you want to try adjusting the antenna yourself, refer to any instructions accompanying the antenna, or visit the www.antennaweb.org website for over-the-air antenna recommendations and general information on antenna alignment.
