ROGRAM INFORMATION
The
key gives access to the EPG menu, where you control the timers and view the
information in the Electronic Program Guide. When you scroll, in time, through the program
information, the EPG key brings you back to the current time.
NOTE
Most digital channels broadcast program data as an EPG. Digital channels that broadcast EPG
offer you program information in advance for a certain period of time. The EPG information is
not always available. Sometimes the service provider supplies only the program name, the now/
next information or sometimes nothing at all. EchoStar has no influence on this matter.
When the EPG menu shows, with the colored keys, you can access the timers and the powerful
tools for further organization of the EPG menu.
■
The
(Red) key gives access to the different modes: TV or Radio.

The VCR timer does not start or program your video recorder (VCR). You have to set the timer
of your VCR also to the same time as on the receiver. Please refer to the user's guide of your
VCR how to record from a satellite receiver.
