SPECIAL FEATURES OF DIGITAL SATELLITE RECEIVER

Special Features of Digital Satellite Receiver

Impulse Pay Per View (IPPV)

You must connect your phone line to the Digital Satellite Receiver to receive pay per view (PPV) service offered by DIRECTV. Connecting the phone line permits you to use the IPPV feature, which allows event purchases without calling a CSR (Customer Service Representative). If you decide against connecting to your phone line, you must call the CSR to purchase events, such as pay per view movies*. DIRECTV refers to such CSR assisted purchases as OPPV (Order ahead pay per view).

When OPPV or subscription authorization changes (e.g., customer cancels the movie purchases), the Digital Satellite Receiver will reflect that change immediately. The Digital Satellite Receiver will display a message, identifying the reason for the authorization status change.

The Digital Satellite Receiver has the ability to allow you to purchase a PPV event offered by DIRECTV. When the Digital Satellite Receiver is tuned to an IPPV channel, (video may or may not be displayed, depending upon whether the PPV event has started) the following message is displayed on the screen.

Purchase available - Press ACTION for purchase information.
