Selecting Data Services

How to Determine if Data Services Are Available on a Station

In the future, your program providers may provide data services, which you can access through specific stations using the DSS receiver’s wide band data and low-speed data ports. For details about using a data port to access these data services, call your program providers.

To determine if data services are available on a specific station:

1 Tune to the station.

2 Press the DISPLAY button to bring up the Program Banner.

If the Program Banner includes the data services symbol (), this indicates that data services are available for that specific station.
