The Menu System
System Options
System Test The System Test display screen is accessed through the
Options menu, and allows you to initiate diagnostic procedures on the
satellite system. You should use this feature to get your Access Card
number, or when your receiver doesn't seem to be working correctly.
A message screen appears, telling you whether the system passed each
test. If your system fails a test, run the system test several times before
concluding that there is a problem. Occasional fluctuations in the phone
line or satellite signal can give temporary false readings.
New Access Card Periodically, your program provider may issue you a
replacement Access Card. The New Access Card Setup display screen
allows you to transfer the information from the old card onto the new
one. The Access Card fits into the receiver through the front panel.
Follow the display screen prompts to initialize your new card. Once you
have transferred the information to the new card, your old card
becomes invalid.
Because your specific account information is stored in the access card,
power failures should have no effect on your satellite system.
Remote Setup Lets you choose which remote button will control the
satellite system if you are using a universal remote that did not come
with the system.
Output Channel Lets you choose on which channel to view satellite
programming, either channel 3 or channel 4.
Picture Size The Picture size display screen allows you to choose
between a standard TV screen and a Cinema option. A standard TV
screen has an aspect ratio of 4:3; the Cinema option has an aspect ratio
of 16:9.
Data Port Lets you choose whether the low speed data port is used for
low speed data or communicating with the Home Control Base
accessory. See the Home Control section in this book for more
information.
Audio Language
When you select Audio Language from the Options menu, the Audio
Language display screen comes up.
Point to the audio language or audio type you want and press OK. The
satellite system audio will then automatically be set to the selected
language (when the language is available).
Alternate Data
Selects from among the available data on the current channel.
