Setting Up A Dish Pass Timer - Dish Network 118523 User Manual

Setting Up a DISH Pass™ Timer
DISH Pass lets you create timers to record programs automatically based on
your search criteria. When the receiver finds programs that meet your search
criteria, it will automatically set a timer to record that program. As the program
guide is updated, DISH Pass will continue to find and record your shows based
upon your search criteria. Note that DISH Pass only finds programs on satellite
channels.
An example of how you can to use DISH Pass may be that you saw a movie in
the theaters and you want to watch it again as soon as it comes out on a movie
channel. Use the Exact Match and Title, and then type the exact title of the
movie. If the movie is made available on a movie channel you subscribe to, the
receiver will automatically set a timer to record that movie for you.
