AutoSet

is designed to help in the initial programming of your channel lists. When you select the

Auto

Set

button, a pop-up menu appears showing each of the channel lists. Highlight and select a channel

list to be programmed. Once selected, the Auto Set Progress pop-up status panel appears. It will take
several minutes for the digital satellite receiver to scan through all channels and determine which ones
you are authorized to receive. The results of this scan will be stored in the designated channel list.

Note: Auto Set may exclude some channels such as the Music Choice channels or include some
pay per view channels. This does not mean that the digital satellite receiver is faulty. These
channels were excluded or included due to the digital satellite receiver’s analysis process. You
may edit the lists manually to correct these oversights.

Clear

You may decide to remove all channels from a particular list later on. Selecting

Clear

will allow you to

clear all channels from a chosen list. You may then add channels back in.

Set

If you decide to include all channels in a particular list, selecting

Set

will allow you to specify the list.

You may then remove channels from this list if you so choose.

Things to do in the CHANNEL LISTS screen

Tag Boxes

The four columns of small boxes on the right hand side of the screen are the Tag Boxes. The first three
columns are the lists traditionally known as

Fav.A

Fav.B

, and

Fav.C

. The farthest right hand column

is the

Family

list.

In the

CHANNEL LISTS

screen, use the , , , and keys to highlight the button that corresponds

to the channel number and list that you wish to change. Press the

key to add or remove the

check mark, which indicates that the channel in that row is included in the list shown at the top of the
column.

To help you decide whether to include or exclude a certain channel, the title of the currently airing
program for that channel will appear at the top of the screen.

Remember that when the digital satellite receiver is locked, only channels in the Family list can
be viewed.

This means that even though a channel appears on the

Fav. A

, or

All Channels

list,

the selected channel must also be on the

Family

list in order to see or hear it.

For the Family List limit to be in force, the digital satellite receiver must be locked.

Locking is

described earlier in this chapter. When the system is locked the passcode will be needed to modify the
settings of the channel lists.
