DIRECTV PARA TODOS™ SYSTEM FROM HUGHES - OWNER'S MANUAL
Hook Up to a Stereo System
To achieve high-quality sound from the digital satellite receiver through a stereo system, simply
connect the AUDIO outputs (Left and Right) to an available input on your audio
system. First, look for an input labeled AUX. If you aren't using a compact disc
player or laser disc player, you can use one of those inputs, if available. The only
input that you should not use is one that is specified for a turntable/phonograph.

Finishing Up
You can mix and match the different hookups described above to suit your entertainment system's
available connections. For example, you could connect the VCR using audio/video, while the TV is
connected with the RF signal. Always try to achieve the highest quality and greatest flexibility
available.
Once all connections have been completed, plug in the TV, VCR and digital satellite receiver to the
wall outlet, appropriate extension cord, or surge protector. See Important Safety Instructions described
in the front of this manual.
Note: If you have connected a VCR into your entertainment system in a way that routes the cables
from the digital satellite receiver to your VCR before the signal reaches the TV, you may experience
a distorted picture if you attempt to record a copy-protected program. These programs are identified
by a "Can't Tape" symbol in the banner area of the screen. If this occurs, simply stop the recording
process and your picture will automatically correct itself.
Installing Remote Control
Batteries
Before the remote control can be used, the supplied batteries need to be installed. First, unsnap the
battery cover from the back of the remote control. Install each fresh battery
as shown, making sure that the + and - on each battery line up with the
marks in the battery compartment. Next, snap the cover back onto the
remote control.
Refer to "Programming Your Remote Control" for setting the codes to
control the devices in your entertainment system.
Now You Can Turn It On
Once you have connected everything, you can begin powering up the
components. Turn the TV on and set it to the DIRECTV PARA TODOS™
System channel (3 or 4) or input (video or S-video). Do the same for the
VCR, if applicable. Now turn the digital satellite receiver on. You will see
Battery installation
the start-up screen for several seconds, followed by a black screen with the
message at the bottom:
"Searching for satellite signal. To access related utilities, press
."
If so, this is good! If not, try pressing the
key while the remote control is in SAT mode. If that
doesn't work, check all of the connections.
You're well on your way to enjoying your DIRECTV PARA TODOS™ System.
