Completing Guided Setup
After connecting your Recorder to your TV, you need to complete Guided Setup, which
should take less than one hour. (For more information about connecting your Recorder,
see the
Start Here booklet and the Installation Guide .)
•
Guided Setup is easy.
The Guided Setup screens step you through the process. If you
get stuck, look through this chapter for help. (You may not see all the screens
described here, or you may see them in a different order, depending on your
equipment.)
If you make a mistake during Guided Setup, simply press LEFT arrow to go back and
fix it. You can also change your setup information later in Messages & Setup. (See
Chapter 5 for details.)
•
Guided Setup is intelligent.
In Guided Setup, you tell your Recorder about your
program source (antenna, cable, or satellite) and equipment setup. That way, you only
have to complete the steps that apply to your particular setup.
•
Guided Setup requires two phone calls.
Try to complete Guided Setup when you
don’t need to use the phone line for an hour or so.
After completing Guided Setup, you can watch live TV, play and record DVDs, and use
TiVo Basic service features to control live TV. You will have to wait a few hours while
the Recorder organizes program information before you can schedule recordings.
In addition, your Recorder needs to connect periodically to the TiVo service to keep your
program information current—using either a phone line or a broadband connection to the
Internet (after you have completed Guided Setup, see chapter 8 for more information
about connecting to the TiVo service through a shared broadband connection).
If you can’t find the help you need in
this chapter, please refer to the
Installation Guide for Customer Support
contact information.
If you need to use the phone during
either of the setup phone calls, pick
up your telephone, wait a moment, then
hang it up and wait about forty-five
seconds. The Recorder hangs up, and the
next time you pick the phone up there is a
dial tone. You will need to re-initiate the
Guided Setup phone calls later.
