Appendix G
Staging Toolkit
Activating the Staging Toolkit for DHCTs with
Alphanumeric LEDs
Note: These instructions are for DHCTs with full-display, alphanumeric LEDs. For
instructions for DHCTs with single or triple LEDs, see Activating the Staging
Toolkit for DHCTs with Single or Triple LEDs (on page 169).
Follow these steps to activate the Staging Toolkit.
1 Place the remote control into VOD mode by choosing one of the following
options:

For 3-function remote controls, switch the VCR/VOD key on the remote
control to the VOD position.

For 4-function and PVR/PIP remote controls, press the CBL key on the
remote control.
2 Hold down the Pause key on the remote control for a few seconds until the
message indicator on the DHCT flashes.
Note: The message indicator continues to flash for approximately 13 seconds
after you release the Pause key. You must press the PAGE – or the PREV – key
within this period to activate the Staging Toolkit.
3 Press one of the following keys to activate the staging toolkit:

For 3-function and PVR/PIP remote controls, press the Page – key.

For 4-function remote controls, press the PREV – key.
Result: The Staging Toolkit activates. The LED on the DHCT changes from
displaying the time to displaying the EMM count, for example, E-00. The DHCT
is not in diagnostic mode, and the programs still appear on the television
monitor.
Note: The EMM count corresponds to the number of Internal Security Element
(ISE) EMMs in the DHCT. This number resets to zero every time the DHCT goes
through a hard reset (power cycle), which, for example, might occur after one of
the following:

The DHCT receives the Operating System (OS) and Resident Application
(ResApp) software.

The DHCT power cord is unplugged.

You use a pin to press the hidden reset button of the DHCT.

You use the Staging Toolkit to reboot the DHCT.
