Basic TV Operation
Changing Between DIRECTV and TV Mode
When you change channels by entering numbers with the remote control, you tune to
programming that can come from one of three different sources: the DIRECTV satellite (if
you have DIRECTV
®
service), a terrestrial off-air antenna, or cable TV. You tune to one of
these sources by pressing either TV or DIRECTV on the remote control; then you can enter
the channel numbers. The diagrams below show how your remote control communicates
with the three sources.
In DIRECTV mode, you tune to channels that
come from the DIRECTV satellite signal (if you
®
subscribe to DIRECTV
programming). Enter
channel numbers that are one to four digits
long. Then press OK to tune.
In TV mode, you tune to channels that carry
the terrestrial off-air or cable TV signal.
•
To tune to an analog channel, enter
channel numbers that are up to three digits
long. Press OK to tune.
•
To tune to a digital channel, enter channel
numbers that are one, two, or three digits
long. If necessary, press the right arrow

subchannel numbers appear in the box to
