Using the Remote Controls
Pound Button
Press the POUND button to display the Search screen. Also, you use this button in several procedures in this User’s Guide.
Recover Button
Press the RECOVER button if you accidentally change the channel or video input on your TV and cannot get the picture back from your satellite receiver. When you press the RECOVER button as described below, the remote control sends commands to your TV to change channels or video inputs to try to get you back to watching satellite programming. This procedure works only if you have accidentally changed the TV channel or video input. It does not recover lost satellite signal (See Chapter 5 - Reference for troubleshooting information).
The following setup is required to use the RECOVER button:
•The remote control must be set up to control the TV and, if installed, the VCR (see page 72).
•If a VCR is installed, make sure it is connected as shown on page 31.
•On a remote TV, the RECOVER button must be programmed to tune your remote TV to the specific channel to receive TV2 programming (for example, channel 60), using the instructions on page 25.
To use the RECOVER button, complete the following instructions:
1.Press and hold the RECOVER button until all four mode buttons light, and then let go of the button. The SAT mode button flashes twice and then all four mode buttons flash three times.
2.Press the RECOVER button. Wait for the TV or VCR mode button to flash once and then all four mode buttons to flash once.
3.If you see the System Info screen, press the SELECT button to close the screen. You have recovered your satellite video.
4.If you do not see the System Info screen, repeat steps 2 and 3 until you have recovered your satellite video.
Note: Press any remote control button other than the RECOVER button to end this procedure.
Note: If the RECOVER button is not programmed to a specific channel, the RECOVER button will first try to tune your TV to channel 3, then channel 4, and then other video inputs with each press of the RECOVER button. You may need to press the RECOVER button up to 30 times to recover your satellite TV video. If the RECOVER button is programmed to a specific channel (see page 25), the RECOVER button will tune the TV to the specific channel (for example, channel 60).
