 GUIDE

RUN THE SYSTEM TEST

The System Test runs a basic diagnostics check on your DVR. 

 

First make sure that: 

  All connections  — jacks, cables, etc. —  are in place correctly. See Appendix 2, “Connections for TV and Equipment” for 

more information.

  Remote control has working batteries.
 The access card is inserted in the DIRECTV

®

 Receiver.

Then follow these steps:

Turn on your TV and the DVR (if you have the Universal Remote, slide the MODE switch to DIRECTV position).
Press MENU, then select Settings & Help. 

  Select Settings then Info & Test.
  Select Run System Test. 
  If your system does not pass the System Test, check any of these potential trouble areas: cabling, satellite dish position, 

phone connection and access card.

  If you continue to have problems, call DIRECTV Customer Service at 1.800.531.5000. 

NOTE: Occasional fluctuations in the phone line or satellite signal can give temporary false readings, therefore we recommend 

running a system test several times before concluding there is a problem.
