When you use features on the receiver, you might be required to enter information, such
as the name of a movie when using Search, into areas known as text fields. Your receiver
has two ways to enter the information:
•
On-screen keyboard
•
Remote Control NUMBER PAD
Using the On-screen Keyboard
Use the on-screen keyboard letters to type the information.
Use the LEFT, RIGHT, UP, and DOWN ARROWS to navigate
around the keyboard. Press SELECT to enter the characters
you want.
Using the Remote Control Number Pad
Use the letters above the NUMBER PAD on the remote
control—just like on a telephone—while the highlight is in the
field. For example, when looking for the channel and times to
watch
Rudy Friml Presents , you press 7 three times for an R,
8 two times for a U, 3 one time for a D, and 9 three times for a
Y to spell the word “Rudy.”
While in the Text Field
When the cursor is in the text field:
Press the LEFT ARROW to delete characters.
Press FORMAT (*) to backspace without deleting characters.
Press 0 to enter a blank space, such as between words.
Use the RIGHT ARROW to forward space without deleting characters.
