This section of the guide discusses
the use of StarSight
with the Z-Trak trackball remote. Operation
with the Z-Trak is
different
than with conventional
remote controls. There are far fewer buttons, because the trackball
is used to move an
on-screen
pointer through various menus. The following
illustration
shows the Z-Trak and its controls.

In the following
sections,
you will be exploring
the
various
screen menus available
in StarSight.
As you do
so, keep in mind the following
guidelines
(quite literally,
"rules of thumb")
for Z-Trak operation:
•
To display the pointer, press the trackball.
•
To highlight
an option or make a selection,
point to
the desired option and press the trackball.
•
To close a StarSight
screen, point to the QUIT icon
and press the trackball.
To tune a channel, point to a channel icon and press
the trackball.
You can also simply highlight
a
program
and press the ENTER button to tune that
program.
Many StarSight
program
guides have more than one
screen full (one "page") of information.
You can
point to the "PT" or "P_," icons and press the
trackball to flip through the pages. You can also
move more slowly by moving the pointer to the top,
bottom, or side edges of the screen and continuing
to
roll the ball in that direction.
Be sure that the pointer is red, indicating that you are in
StarSight
mode. If the pointer is blue, move the pointer
to the left side of the TV screen, point to the TV icon
and press the trackball.
