The PROGRAM GUIDE (SM. CELL) displays 1½-hours of programming. Up to 12 channels can be
seen at one time. This number is reduced to 9 if the program description option is enabled.
The largest area of the PROGRAM GUIDE (SM. CELL) made up of cells is known as the program
grid. Some cells have arrows indicating that the program started at an earlier time or continues until a
later time than displayed in the grid. Each grid cell approximates the duration of the associated
program.
A time line spanning the width of the guide indicates the show times of the programs being displayed.
The list of blocks running down the left-hand side are the "channel tags." Depending on the Channel
Sort (Name or Number) option specified in your system's PREFERENCES screen (described in "The
Digital Satellite Receiver's Menu System") the tags may display the channel numbers or call signs.
This will dictate whether the channels are listed by channel number or alphabetically by call sign.
To navigate the guide, use the , , , and
keys. You can continue to press the
or
keys to scroll
more program offerings onto the screen.
Pressing
on any title will direct you to the INFORMATION screen.
Use
and
to scroll through the guide entries a full page at a time.
When the highlight is in the grid, use the
and
keys to move left and right. If you move the
highlight onto the channel tags, they will temporarily change to the opposite of what they were before
(either channel numbers or call signs).
Move the highlight to the right to move the grid area to reveal later time periods. Sometimes, after
scrolling a few hours ahead, there may be a brief delay while more information is received from the
satellite.
