Test Changing Channels
This test checks to see if the code you selected will change channels.
Use the numeric keypad on the Recorder remote to change to the
lowest channel you receive through your set-top box—such as
channel 2.
Note
In this test the channel does not need to change to the lowest
channel; the TV image just needs to change to another channel.
•
If the channel changed to a different show, select
The channel
changed
.
•
If the channel did not change to another show, select
Try another
code
. Select another remote control code and run this test again.
Speed Test
At this point the code is tested for changing to the correct channel.
In addition, some remote controls send codes more quickly than other
remote controls. The speed test also tests the speed the Recorder
should send the code to the set-top box.
There are three possible speeds: Fast, Medium, and Slow. The first
speed tested is Fast.
To test the speed
1.
Tune to the highest channel you receive through the set-top box
by using the numeric keypad on the Recorder remote—the highest
channel in your channel list, such as channel 599 or channel 9406.
2.
Change the channel at least six more times by using the numeric
keypad on the remote.
•
If the channel changed correctly each time, select
The channel
changed
.
•
If the channel did not change correctly each time, select
Try
another speed
.
If the fast speed test fails, repeat the same procedure for the medium
speed test. It the medium test fails, try the slow speed test. If the slow
speed test fails, select
Try another code
and select a different remote
control code to test.
Recorder Remote Control Settings
After all of the remote control settings for the Recorder are set up, the
Recorder displays the final settings it will use to change the channels.
