Activation should begin automatically. Once "Turn" and "On" alternate on the LED
screen, turn on your digital cable box if it's not already on. The power is on if the
power button is blue. On your TV you'll see text that reads: "Please wait, we are
preparing the service for you." When the service is ready, the time will display on
the LED screen. This may take several minutes.
