The four directional keys, up ( ), down ( ), left ( ), and right ( ), are used to move the highlight
around the program guide and menus. They also provide access to the OneLine™ Guide when menus
aren't displayed.
The select key (
) is used to access a highlighted guide or menu item.
The rear of the digital satellite receiver.
The rear of the digital satellite receiver has numerous jacks for connection to your audio/video
entertainment system. You will also find the power cord permanently connected to the back.
The SATELLITE IN F-type jack is for connecting the cable from your satellite dish antenna to the digital
satellite receiver. Be sure that you use RG-6 cable only.
The IN FROM ANT F-type jack is an input where you can connect the cable from an RF terrestrial
source such as an off-air antenna or cable TV service.
The OUT TO TV F-type jack is an RF output which you may connect to your TV or VCR (depending
on your entertainment system). Note that the CH3/CH4 switch on the upper left enables you to select
the channel that digital satellite receiver signals will appear on. Set you TV to match this.
The phono-type AUDIO output jacks, labeled and color coded (L is white, R is red) to indicate left and
right, can be used for connection to your TV, VCR, or audio system. The phono-type composite
VIDEO output jack is color-coded yellow. You may use this jack for connection to your TV or VCR.
The multiple-pin S-VIDEO jack is for high-quality video output. Use this jack to achieve the clearest
picture for your TV or VCR. Many newer TVs, SVHS VCRs, Hi8 VCRs and some AV Receivers
support S-video connections.
The VCR CONTROL mini-jack is for connecting the VCR control cable included with the system.
With this cable, the digital satellite receiver can interface with most popular brands of VCRs to record
selected programs automatically.
The D-VHS jack is for connecting a digital A/V cable for use with some D-VHS digital VCRs. When
connected to a D-VHS VCR, the additional D-VHS features described in this manual become active
and the standard VCR CONTROL mini-jack is disabled.
There are two DIGITAL AUDIO OUT connectors. One is OPTICAL and the other is COAX. They
both provide the same signals for connection to a Dolby Digital decoder.
The RF REMOTE jack is provided for future accessory use.
The LOW SPEED DATA port is for connection to other data devices. See your dealer regarding any
options that may be available. Use of this port without the proper cable or equipment could damage the
digital satellite receiver and/or connected devices.
