TV Service Provider

Select your TV service provider, including standard cable provider, digital
cable provider, or satellite provider.
If you have digital cable service or satellite TV service, select the brand
of TV service set-top box. If you do not know the brand, see your TV
service documentation or contact your TV service provider.

Choose Number of Digits and How You Change Channels

If you have digital cable service or satellite service, select the highest
number of channels you receive through your cable set-top box or
satellite set-top box: two digits, three digits, or four digits.
Note The Recorder adds leading zeros to channel numbers that have
fewer digits than you selected above. For example, if you select "4-
digits" the Recorder sends "0044" to the digital cable set-top box or the
satellite set-top box to change to channel 44. If the channel does not
change correctly, the set-top box may not recognize the leading zeros.
To correct this, select Yes, I have to press ENTER or OK on the How do
you change channels? page. You can change this setting by selecting
Start > Settings > Guide Setup > Set up TV Signal and Guide.
When you have to enter a channel manually, how do you enter it?
Do you:
ter the channel number using a remote control, and then the
En
channel changes?
ter the channel number using a remote control, and then
En
press OK or ENTER to change the channel?
If you press OK or ENTER, the Recorder enter the OK or ENTER for you.
When you enter a channel number by using the Recorder remote, the
Recorder will also "press" OK for you; you won't have to press it.
After you select the actions that change the channels, set up the
Recorder to change the channels by using the IR control cable or the
serial data control cable.
Note Although many cable set-top boxes and satellite set-top boxes
do not require you to press OK or ENTER to change a channel by using
the set-top box remote control, some of these set-top boxes cannot be
controlled by the Recorder remote control without OK or ENTER being
pressed. You may need to select the OK or ENTER option if you find the
Recorder remote does not change the set-top box channels properly.
