When the Digital Satellite Receiver is set to Standard Jump mode, pressing the JUMP button toggles back and forth between the two most recently selected stations.

When the Digital Satellite Receiver is set to Jump Loop mode, pressing the JUMP button toggles among as many as 5 stations that you assign to a Jump Loop. Once you assign a station to the Jump Loop, you can use the JUMP button to quickly toggle through all the stations in the loop.

To set jump stations:

1 Set the Digital Satellite Receiver to Jump Loop mode, as described on page 47. (You need to do this only the first time you create a Jump Loop.)

2 Tune to a station you want to assign to the Jump Loop.

Note

You cannot set jump stations while a program guide, menu, etc., is being displayed.

3 Press and hold the JUMP button. A message appears, indicating that the station has been assigned to the Jump Loop.

4 To set additional jump stations, repeat steps 2 and 3 of this procedure.

Note

If you set more than 5 jump stations, the sixth jump station automatically overwrites the first jump station in the loop, and so on.

To jump through the Jump Loop:

qPress the JUMP button repeatedly. The stations are displayed in the order they were set.

To clear a station from the Jump Loop:

1 Tune to the station you want to clear from the Jump Loop.

Note

You cannot clear Jump stations while a program guide, menu, etc., is being displayed.

2 Press and hold the JUMP button. A message appears, indicating that the station has been cleared from the Jump Loop.
