ON-SCREEN KEYBOARD

When you’re using certain TV features, you’ll need to enter information into on- screen text boxes. For example, you might want to search for a TV show by title or phrase.

TV HOME

The TV Home screen is your home base for all your TV-watching activities. From TV Home you can go to key features of the service.

If you are using the optional wireless keyboard or have connected a keyboard to the receiver’s USB port, you can simply start typing when you see a text-entry box on your screen. (See the on-screen Help for a list of supported keyboards.) If you don’t have a keyboard, you can type on an on-screen keyboard using your remote control.

To use the on-screen keyboard:

1When you see a text-entry box (a rectangle with a vertical yellow line in it), press your remote control’s OK button. (Make sure the text-entry box is surrounded by the yellow selection box before you press OK.)

The on-screen keyboard appears.
