Using Text Fields - Dish Network 512 User Manual

Using Text Fields

There are several screens that require you to enter information into areas known
as fields. Your receiver has two basic ways to enter the information:
• Virtual Keyboard
• Remote Control NUMBER PAD
Using the Virtual Keyboard
Use the virtual keyboard letters to type the information. Use the LEFT, RIGHT,
UP, and DOWN ARROWS to navigate around the keyboard. Select the
characters you want.
Using the Number Pad
Use the letters above the NUMBER PAD on the remote control
while the highlight is in the field.
For example, when looking for the channel and times to watch
Rudy Fremmel Presents, you press 7 three times for an R, 8 two
times for a U, 3 one time for a D, and 9 three times for a Y to
spell the word "Rudy."
While in the Field
When the cursor is in the field:
• Press the LEFT ARROW to delete characters.
• Press STAR to backspace without deleting any characters.
• Press the 0 number button to enter a blank space, such as a space
between words.
• Use the RIGHT ARROW to move the cursor forward a space
without deleting any characters.
