Selecting Channels
This section describes the methods that Passport DCT provides for you to select channels for
viewing.
To select channels
• Press the numbered buttons on the remote to select a specific channel number
• Press the CH buttons to select the next channel up or down from the current channel
• Press the FAV button to select the next favorite channel (unless you are in the program guide)
• Press the LAST button to select the channel you last viewed
• Press the SELECT button in the program guide to view the highlighted program
• Press the SELECT button in the channel banner to select the channel indicated
Entering a Specific Channel Number
If you know the number of the channel you want to view, use the procedure below to select that
channel. You can enter up to four numbers for a channel. When you enter four numbers, the settop
immediately displays the channel. If your cable system is set up for three-digit channel numbers only,
then entering three digits selects the channel immediately. When you enter the channel number, the
channel banner shows the number of digits you can enter by dashes. For example, if you enter 51,
the channel banner may show -51 or --51.
To enter a specific channel number
On the remote, press the one, two, three, or four digits of the channel number you want to view. For
example, to select channel 7, enter 7, 07, 007, or 0007.
Depending on your cable system, the number of digits you enter, and what number you enter, the
settop may delay a few seconds before displaying the channel. To avoid this delay, press the SELECT
button immediately after you enter the channel number.
Note: If you enter a channel number that does not exist, the channel banner flashes ??? for a few seconds.
