To display program guide information for the next day
1 Press the GUIDE button to display the program guide if necessary.
2 Press the DAY+ button. The program guide displays the information for the same time on the
next day. Continue to push the DAY+ button until you either find the day you desire or you
reach the end of the available information (data).
• To load new data, see the following procedure.
• If you see the message No Data and the grid lines disappear, you have reached the end of
available data. More will be available as time passes.
Notes:
- The DAY+ button only works if there is a full 24 hours of future program guide
information. Depending on your settop type, there may not be program guide information
available for 24 hours. If the DAY+ button does not work, you can press the right arrow
button to scroll through the information for future hours.
- You can also scroll to the next day, using the arrow buttons.
3 Press the DAY– button to return to the information for the current day.
Note: Another way to return to the current day and time is to exit the program guide and then return to
it. The current time and day displays.
Loading Additional Guide Information (Listings) On the DCT 2000
Note: This procedure is only the for model DCT 2000; the model DCT 2500 holds all program data and does
not require a loading procedure.
You can load up to seven days of guide data for the program guide. The actual number of days
available depends on many factors. In the case of the DCT 2000, when you request program guide
data beyond what is initially loaded (typically 3-4 days), it is necessary for the system to load this
new data on the settop. You can only load and view one new time frame segment at a time. A
segment is dependent on the cable provider (for example, a segment might be 8 hours or 12 hours
of information). When you load additional segments, the new segment swaps with another time
frame.
You load a new time frame segment from the time grid display (not the theme or title display). As
a result of the data load, there is a minimal time delay in retrieving the information. During the time
the data is loading, you receive a confirmation message; during this time, you can scroll through
existing data, exit and enter the guide, perform other guide functions, or watch TV.
