Evolve Communications RD5000 manual Determining DirecTune* Device, Cable box, Setup DirecTune

Getting Started

6.Setup DirecTune*

The device you use to change channels (typically your TV, cable box, or satellite box) is referred to as your DirecTune* device. DirecTune lets you jump directly to a TV channel from within the TV Listings. Your remote needs to know what device is responsible for changing channels, such as your TV, cable box, satellite box or VCR. It also needs to know the procedure for changing channels (for instance, whether or not you have to press an “enter” button after selecting a channel).

Please identify the DirecTune device in Setup DirecTune when the screen prompts you. Only one device can be set up as the DirecTune device. Therefore, you should set up all your devices prior to setting up a DirecTune device. You may change the DirecTune device settings at anytime.
