• The receiver gives you three
chances to enter the correct
password. If you fail to do so, the
receiver “times out” and will not
allow you to try again for several
minutes.
• Wait a few minutes and then try again to enter the password.
Note:
The “time out” feature is designed to prevent someone
from trying password after password until he or she happens to
guess the right one and so gains unauthorized access to the
receiver.

• You may not have connected the
receiver to an active telephone
line. Or, the telephone line may
be defective.
• Maybe the receiver is connected
to a DSL (Digital Subscriber
Line) phone line.
• Connect the receiver to an active telephone line.
Make sure that the telephone line to which you connect the
receiver is working properly.
Note:
To be able to order Pay-Per-View programs, you
must
keep the receiver connected to an active telephone line at all
times. If your setup includes more than one receiver, this applies
to
each
receiver. The receiver uses the telephone line to make
toll-free calls, usually in the middle of the night, to send
information to the Customer Service Center.
• Install a DSL filter between the receiver and the telephone
wall jack.

factory.
• If you want to reset the receiver to its factory default settings,
select the
Yes
