Welcome to the high-tech, sophisticated world of digital satellite
system television, often just called DSS
broadcasting technology, providing a picture and audio quality
once only available with laser discs or CDs. There are many

by program title.
One Touch Record — Just press one button to easily set the
timer to record or view a program.

60 Favorite Channels — Program up to 60 channels for instant
access.

list of programs for a desired channel.
Open/Closed Program Guide — Quickly puts the program guide
into a "channel surf" mode which allows you to see what is
currently on a channel.
Information Key — With the touch of a button, display information
about the current program or about a program in the guide.
Parental Lock, Rating, and Spending Limits — Using a password
for access, you can lock out unwanted channels or set rating and
spending limits.
Universal Remote Control — The supplied remote control can
also control your television, VCR, and cable box, or laser disc
player.
Receiver Control Codes — Your remote control can be
programmed so you can use multiple DSS receivers in your
home.
S-Video & A/V Outputs — Your receiver has both types of
standard outputs so it can easily be integrated with other home
equipment, including home theater equipment.
Wide Band Data Port — This port allows you to connect the DSS
system to future services and accessories as they become
available. Some additional equipment may be necessary.
